NBA 2014 Post Season Round 3 Predictions

ROUND THREE PREDICTIONS

Western Conference Playoff Prediction:
1. Spurs over 2. Thunder in 6 games
-I had it. The Thunder are more athletic, and thus can beat the Spurs who are overall better but will find it hard to keep up. But then Ibaka got hurt. This is a crater in their chances, and really too bad. Perhaps the Thunder will use this as an opportunity to play small ball and really unleash the athleticism. But I doubt it, and I think their defense crumbles without Serge there. 35 minutes a game of Perkins makes me want to cry, but it is probably happening.

Easter Conference Playoff Prediction:
1. Pacers over 2. HEAT in 7 games
-What a bloodbath. I keep going back and forth. The first thing that got me to a happy place with this pick is the homecourt. The second is that the Pacers are trending upwards while the HEAT look vulnerable and WAY too over dependent upon Lebron. I don’t know that Wade has the next gear. If he doesn’t, this could be shorter.

Title Prediction:
Whoever comes out of the West, basically
