The good thing abou not having HCA is they have a lot of pressure on them the first two games to keep HCA.

Jazz are 12-2 when Hill, Hood, Hayward, Favors, and Gobert all play. I like our chances.

I see the Warriors and Spurs meeting in the WCF, and I see the Warriors winning, and I dont see it going 7 either, probably Warriors in 6, but wouldnt be too surprised if Warriors dont win in 5.

I see the Clippers coming up short like they always tend to do come playoff time. I'll say Utah in 6 games

Utah is the only lower seed I see winning in the 1st rd. I think OKC might put a slight scare into Houston, cause come playoff time, you have to rachet up the defense, and Dantoni dont value defense, nor does Harden, so I can see Westbrook lighting them up, but no matter who it is, no 1 player can win a series practically by himself, not even MJ was able to do that, so I dont see Westbrook being able too. I do think it could be a very entertaining series, with Harden and Houston's offense, going up against the 1 man show which is Westbrook. Id love to see OKC pull off the upset, because I cant stand Harden or D'Anfoni, but I dont see this series going more than 5, but all 5 games I think could be close, or atleast 4 of the 5 games will be close.


Warriors meet Cavs once again in the finals, and this yr the Warriors take back the Championship, and Durant gets what he came to GS for. I'll say it will probably take 7 games though for the Warriors to do it.

That's how I hope the west goes down. Would be great. I don't know about the Warriors over the thunder in 7 though.

Grizzlies G Tony Allen to miss the start of the playoffs due to a calf strain he suffered last night.
