2012/13 NBA Playoffs - 2nd round recap

Western Conference



The Spurs came in riding high from their upset win in the 1st round over the #1 seeded Timberwolves, in this Series however, they were simply outgunned by a younger, more athletic team in OKC... The Thunder's NBA Championship Dreams took a HUGE hit in this Series though as Superstar Forward Kevin Durant tore a ligiment in his wrist in the 4th game of the Series... He will miss the remainder of the Playoffs



Without Kevin Durant, I can't see the Thunder getting past the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals...




Kobe Bryant, Dwight Howard and the star studded Lakers team takes care of the Suns in 6 games... The Suns were able to steal Game 1, but then the Lakers won 4 of the next 5 to advance to the Western Conference Finals...


Eastern Conference





The Miami Heat were the #1 Team in the NBA in the Pre-Season and during the Regular Season.. Their 63-19 record was the best in the league and they had home court advantage throughout the Playoffs... They matched up in the 2nd round vs a Philly team that had all the right pieces to compete with the talent that Miami put on the floor every night... In the shocker of the Playoffs so far the 76ers eliminated the Miami Heat in 6 games and sent the defending Champions home for the Summer... LeBron averaged 25 points, 6 reb and 6 assists fro the Series but he didn't get much help from Chris Bosh who was coming back from an injury... The win propels the Sixers to the Eastern Conference Finals for the 1st time since Allen Iverson took them there in 2001...



Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls survive a grueling 7 game Series vs the Brooklyn Nets... Derrick Rose hit the game winning shot with just 2 seconds remaining in Game 7 to give the Bulls the 111-110 victory...



Rose poured in 48 points in Game 1 of the Series and his great scoring continued throughout the series as he averaged 32 points per game... He carried the team and now he has them in the Eastern Conference Finals vs the 76ers...

Stay tuned for a Conference Finals Preview

You know there is a dynasty thread?

if your looking to rebuild in a video game style (Not realistic at all) gut your big salaries and sign Iggy and D12 its the easiest way. I was able to do a slightly more realistic way of trading most of my players for draft picks and due to the lottery I had the #1,3,7 picks and also signed Iggy

Enjoyed reading this.Really like how you kept the identity of the team and didn't make ridiculous trades to make the cavs a finals team in year 1 like a lot of people seem to want to do.

There is a dynasty section on the forums, and a dynasty blog section in your arena, but this was a good read nonetheless.
