This discussion speaks to the fact that Round 2 of this year's playoffs have not been competitive. Jordan vs. James feels like a July discussion.
How does everyone see the rest of the playoffs going?
Celtics/Cavs should be a good series, but feels like either of GSW/HOU would beat the EC winner in 5.
Having watched most of the playoffs thus far, I still don't see how HOU beats GSW. GSW just seems to have too many weapons on offense, while HOU needs Harden to be filthy every night. Also, Harden & Paul both seem to have more than their fair share of shitty games come playoff time.
Give me:
Celtics in 7
Warriors in 6
NBA Finals: Warriors in 5
These projections reflect the conventional wisdom (maybe, the Cavs/Celtics will be a pick), but then again, a little more than a week ago, NO ONE thought the Celtics would be up 3-0 on the Sixers, and Cavs were an underdog to the Raptors (and NO ONE was predicting a Cavs sweep, after they barely survived the Pacers); so, will be interesting to see how the next few weeks play out.
