    @KCJHoop Thibodeau said Noah has soreness, is day-to-day. Didn't practice. Chance he doesn't play in Game 1.
    Still don't like the way the Noah issues played out at season's end. :thumbdown:

      Isn't he dealing with the dreaded Plantar Fasciatis as well? How long has that been going on for?

        As a Bucks fan, I could only hope! It's nice to see the confidence, even if he doesn't truly believe that it will happen...and I doubt he really does.

        With that said, the Bucks will beat the Heat in 6...years...in a regular season game.

        I'll still have fun @ the BC watching them play in games 3 and 4. Any other Bucks fans getting tickets?

          Miami in 4.
          Brooklyn in 7.
          New York in 7.
          Indiana in 5.

          Miami vs. Milwaukee:
          I hate to make it this simple/casual but Miami has Lebron and Wade. I do like the Bucks frontcourt defensively but not that much lol.

          Brooklyn vs. Chicago:
          Chicago injuries have scared me away from picking them. In addition with the way Deron Williams has played the last couple months, Brooklyn has the best player in this series. When things seem even, I usually go with the team with the best player. Thibs has done a great job and the Bulls are very good defensively but I don't think they can score enough. The Nets have two guys that get their own shot when the shot clock winds down and that is one thing I think this series will come down too.

          New York vs. Boston:
          Since Garnett is playing and I have a lot of respect for the Celtics. I think they will push this to 7 and it wouldn't shock me to see them pull an upset. The Knicks injuries concern me and the Knicks haven't been playing good defense lately. Obviously, Tyson coming back is huge. I think Carmelo will be the difference in this series. If Avery Bradley hits some shots, it will change the whole complexion of this series.

          Indiana vs. Atlanta:
          I know Indiana hasn't played well lately but they have been very good defensively this year and I just don't like the Hawks. Lou Williams getting hurt early in the year was significant and I don't know what to think of them.

            Heat in 4

            Bulls in 7

            Pacers in 6

            Knicks in 6

            Obviously, I'm most interested in my Knicks' series against Boston, but I really think the Bulls/Nets series is going to be good. The others are pretty meh.

                I mean really, what is dude suppose to say "We can't beat the Heat".. like the confidence in the player..they'll still get beat, but I'm just saying.

                  Oh and this:

                  Bulls in 5(I trust Thibs more than Peter John in the postseason)
                  How does this happen? Like not counting myself and like two others every pick in here is for the Nets to win this series, but not Pack's? That's like everybody but the two Pacer fans we got here picking the Pacers to win their series.

                            @NickFriedell: Thibs ruled DRose out of Game 1 and admitted he was 'most likely out' the rest of the way but didn't close door because of poss. playoff run

                              In less than 6 hours, lines will be drawn. Feelings will be hurt. Names will turn pink. Old friends become new enemies. Playoff time is upon the OS NBA Forum. Are you ready?

                                I already know I'm going to to want to punch Nate Robinson at some point.

                                Also Blackout in Barclay's tonight for game 1. I believe the Nets are going with the Black unis as well. Still not totally aure. But they've been pushing black for the playoffs
