[EC 2nd Round] #1 Cleveland v. #4 Hawks

1ST!!


Cavs in 6. Joe Johnson will play a lot better though

 

You are so quick!

 

Cavs in 6, I see the Hawks winning Games 3 and 4 since it is at Atlanta, but Cavs taking them out after 5 and 6.

 

cavs in 5

cleveland rocks

 

Cavs in six probably. What's going to kill the Hawks is Marvin Williams being injured. Marvin is the guy they primarily used to defend LeBron, and truth be told: LeBron didn't really kill the Hawks all that bad. He was either right at or below his scoring average.

Mark my words: the achilles heel for the Hawks is their inability to defend quality PG's. Mo Williams burned the Hawks all year long so this series shouldn't be any different. Bibby is so atrocious defensively, as you will all see once this series reaches it's conclusion.

 

I want the jerky Hawks to get killed. I can't stand that team.

 

Marvin Williams playing/not playing makes all the difference. If Marvin was able to play they could let Marvin defend LeBron then try switching JJ on Mo Williams to try to bother Mo (primarily a shooter) with his height/length, then letting Bibby worry about guarding Delonte West. Unfortunately, with Marvin likely out that doesn't look like an option.

 

Well if you don't want the Cavs in the finals the Hawks have the best chance at preventing this from happening IMO.

Not sold on Orlando.

Boston without KG don't stand a chance.


But yeah Cavs win this in 6.

 

Cavs in SIX.

 

jon barry know it all predicts Cavs in 4, I wonder what he picked for POR-HOU.

 

I pick Cavs in 5, possibly 4. I know ATL is good at home, but Cleveland is just too good. I don't see ATL winning much in this series, although I could be wrong. This is sort of similar to our series against LA.

 

The inconsistency in the Hawks/Heat series was shocking. If they do the same thing this series, it's Cavs in 4 or 5. I'll go w/ 5.

 

Cavs in 4. Bad matchup with Marvin being out.

 

I love the story kenny and barkley talk about the MVP trophy regarding Hakeem and David Robinson.

Kenny: After Hakeem scored 47 points that night (MVP for robinson) he said that he was going over to David's house to get his trophy.

 

HELL YA !

 

I did a two team teaser. Cavs -7, Denver -1.5

 

This could be the only team (atlanta) that has a player with as much athletic ability as Lebron, Josh smith is a physical freak as well.

 

dang now teams might not want to sweep teams so fast b/c you get such a long rest that the teams get rusty
