    I think Teague's ankle has been messed up but he looked pretty good in game 4 and 6. He does need to attack though.. I have seen him dominate Irving many times.

    LeBron James has been playing absolutely out of his mind this entire playoff. 27 10 8 2 and 1.5 average for the playoffs. He's 30 and he still dominates.

    Kyrie is hurt & the Hawks have decent guard play. Hawks will also own the interior.

    I'm actually going against conventional wisdom and picking the Hawks (in 6, winning in Cleveland).

    Chicago was much more of a mess than people give them credit for.

    Hawks have size disadvantage and if Teague plays like he played in the playoffs so far they will have issues. He is like afraid of the big stage and doesn't attack.
    I hope the Hawks win but by playing good basketball like they did in the regular season. They were a joy to watch.

    He is playing pretty poorly by his standards.

    That's true, but I'd take Horford and Millsap over anything the Cavs have left standing on the interior.

    Interesting article. Thanx. There is a respect rating???? True what they say that the defence stats that are available to the public are laughable. I wonder what other insane ratings the analytics departments of the teams have at their disposal.
    as I said Teague NEEDS to step it up. Bud has been trusting Shroeder because Teague looks many times lost and timid.

    Duncan is one of the most skilled and fundamentally sound players in history. LeBron relies heavily on his athleticism which will fade and the result maybe worse than Kobe who stills has a midrange game. I don't see LeBron being great past 35. The mileage on him is already showing wear and tear.

    I feel like neither of these teams make it out of the first round in the west.
