We're in for a great playoffs

[TMT]

Personally the only East series I would watch if the playoffs started today would be Chicago-Brooklyn. Otherwise the rest of the early East matchups look like shit.

West all the way. Going to be an all out war out here

[russwest0]

The West is going to be badass.

The East.... lol

[(e)]

I legitimately feel sorry for anyone who is excited for the East Playoffs. It's a joke.

I'll enjoy watching whoever the Bulls play in the first round, and I'll enjoy what the West has to offer, but outside of that...lol

Who's covering the West this year? Please tell me its TNT

[J Shuttlesworth]

Boy just look at that

[D.J.]

In the West, yes. Even the 1-8 matchup can be a potential upset. There's no frontrunner as literally any of the 8 can make a run. In the East, the ECF is going to be the only real series people watch. Only exception would be Brooklyn/Chicago. Certainly no one is going to care about the other first round matchups. Second round, it depends who advances. Chicago/Indiana I think will be a decent matchup, but Miami against Toronto/Washington won't be anything exciting.

[Rubio2Gasol]

When are the Playoffs not fu.cking great? It's the f.ucking playoffs.

[MMM]

You didn't sell me on the East.

I might watch Miami / Brooklyn (if that match up happens), but besides that it's gonna be a load of shit (with the obvious exception of Miami / Indiana).

The West though

Raps and wiz if they match up should be fun
Chi/Bk in a rematch should be more watchable than last season

Raptors and Wizards haven't made the playoffs since '08. The Raptors are benefitting from a weak division and the Wizards are an up and coming team with upside, but they're not that good yet.

Nets and Bulls will be a good matchup. I expect it to go 7.

[wally_world]

Suns will make it and beat the Spurs in the 1st round. Book it.

[Jacks3]

people say this shit every season.

[Pushxx]

The playoffs are great until people remember the rig is on in half the series.

[ihoopallday]

I have the Clips coming out the west.

[Number24]

Suns, Mavericks, Grizzlies, Warriors and Blazers. Any of these teams winning in the first could not be even considered as an upset. They are that good.

On the other hand, mediocrity of the play-off teams in the east makes their end of the show dull! I personally think Brooklyn is making a final push for that #3 seed. It will be a little interesting to see the Knicks making it through the play-offs. I believe the 37 wins predicted by ESPN will cut it!

not going to watch east playoffs. west going to be crazy
