So basically Bulls-Cavs is the ECF right?

[The_Pharcyde]

The hawks are having a hard time shaking the Alan Anderson led Brooklyn Nets, so they are a non factor...

so Basically Bulls-Cavs de facto ECF

maybe outsiders chance the Wiz get in

The ****?

Look at the boxscore. Nets had multiple people playing well, while DeMarre Carroll was off.

This is playoff basketball. No game, or series for that matter is a straight up gimme, other than some exceptions.

Nets aren't a bad team, they are actually pretty good. It's just they lack consistent three point shooters.

[Spaulding]

No...its impossible dude. They will play each other next round.

Take this L bruh.

Edit: didnt realize what OP meant. My bad.

The Cavs and Bulls will play in the 2nd round, not ECF.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Cavs vs. Wizards

[raprap]

A win is a win. Bottomline is, the hawks are 2 wins away advancing just like the bulls and the cavs.

It's funny. I don't remember people saying that since the Pacers were struggling with the 8th seed last year, that they would be gone before the ECF.

And look what happened. They made the ECF.

It's all branding. The pacers had the Paul George brand. That's what people care about, not skill.

OP knows its Bulls Cavs next round he is just pointing out that their series will be the best played and highest intensity so it really becomes the pivotal series of the east. I agree. Hawks don't look like January hawks anymore. It's a shame.

[ATL_Bball_King]

OP can't be serious..its the damn playoffs...celtics playing good on a starting backup point guard...last time i checked they all are 2 and 0...hawks are fine

We'll see.

Really hope that the bulls make the ECF vs the Hawks.

Oh. Ya. Bulls Cavs semis probably best series in east this year.

So do I. I mean what the hell have the Bulls even done all year aside from be average? Just another example of being overrated purely due to the brand

[Jasper]

I'd lov to see Washington Bullets bump off the CAvaliers

[The_Pharcyde]

I hope Hawks make it for my sake, The 1-2 punch of Alan Anderson and Thad Young scares the hell out of me
