I agree with his first round predictions except for the Suns/Lakers match-up. From there, it all goes downhill. I'm a Warriors fan too, but not over the Rockets...
I thought it was funny, but i think if they some how made it to the finals, they could beat anybody out east.
LOL, I beat the Mavs are only like 80 in the game overall. They have to work out some kinks though. Warriors to the Finals?
Wow, I can't believe people are still doubting the Warriors. That simulation is no lie. I'm guessing y'all let ESPN and TNT manipulate your basketball minds. Do y'all realize that the Warriors' starting lineup consists of FIVE ALL-STAR CALIBER players? Davis, Ellis, Richardson, Jackson, and Harrington are all play makers. Ellis is a future all-star talent that might win Most Improved Player. They have capable players coming off the bench as well such as Pietrus and Barnes. Andris Biedrins is a project, but he can already play productive minutes in the paint. Like Kenny Smith says, it's all about matchups. Some people will say that GS plays too small... so? Last time I checked, did Dallas have any centers capable of destroying teams that went small on them? If you're going to talk about teams that go small being hurt, the Mavs will get hurt if they go small with Terry and Harris at the guard spots. Again, it's all about matchups. If GS upsets Dallas, it would be awesome for me to bash my Mavs friends here at UT. However, for us to beat GS, we would need consistent unbelievable performances from T-Mac, Yao, and most importantly, our defense. Because we do have a dominating center unlike the Mavs, that's why I feel we could still beat the Warriors. If I was only an NBA fan and not a Rockets fan, I'd probably root for GS. I'd love to see a Cinderella 8 seed win the whole thing and shock the NBA world.
Kenny Smith also says the best team will win in a 7 game series. Golden State will be lucky to get 1 aginst a Dallas team that is now in the playoffs, the kid gloves are off. Expect Golden State to be crushed. Its a good story until after game 3 when its 3-0 dallas.
Well, Pistons certainly have a good chance to win it all again this year... Pretty unfair, if Rockets (or any other elite to semi elite West team) were in the East for the past 5 years or so, they probably would've won a lot of titles
