If Bulls don't win players should forfeit their salaries

That Boston-Miami series is tough to call man. I can very well see that going six with Boston or Miami winning and I can see Boston either sweeping the Heat or winning in five as well. Should be fun to watch though. I think we're going to be coming up with some new insulting names for Chris Bosh and his game after this series as well.

Boston Miami "should" prove to be one of the best matchups the league can offer.

Hopefully LeBron doesn't hurt his elbow again. LOL

I would like nothing more than to see Miami advance through to the finals. I want LeBron to get his revenge and finally topple those damn Celtics.

Re: Eastern Conference Playoffs - Second Round Discussion Thread

i think both of these series should be real good. we all know why the Heat/Celtics will be but we should see quite a few exciting plays in the Bulls/Hawks series as well.

if Boozer doesnt consistently get his against the smaller josh smith he should be traded! lol just kidding but seriously, i see no reason he shouldnt be effective down low. i see luol deng having a solid series too. Rose? he will dominate.

to me, Crawford has been the hawks best player so far and im intersted to see how he does here. if the Hawks wants to win this series, JJ needs to step up big time. he needs to dominate. should be interesting to see how Horford plays against Noah.

Bulls in 6.

i see rose getting more help this series from Deng and Boozer. on top of that the Hawks will have one game where they dont do ****. other than that should be entertaining. i just dont think the hawks play consistent enough to win this series.

Celtics/Heat

Celtics in 6.

i really want to say in 5 but 6 seems safe. i really dont think the heat have a real chance is this one honestly. with poor bench scoring and Bosh being less effective due to Garnett's defense, that leaves Lebron and Wade to do damn near all the scoring. on top of that its Doc vs Spoelstra. ill go with Doc lol. and if the Celtics get anything from Shaq..............oh man.
