My guess is that the Lakers and 76ers advance after game 1, the Pelicans win game 2 versus the Warriors, and the Heat win game 2 versus the Bulls. I’m the least confident about the potential Pelicans vs Warriors outcome

This exactly what I have. No way Lakers don’t beat Pels. But I think Pels get the honor of losing to Thunder.
East is harder. You just don’t count out Heat as a rule of thumb at this point. It’ll be a coaching battle.

It seems like 7/8 in the east will be a big party of the whole PO

Re the Lakers-Pelicans hours ago, does Ingram easily get tired? He’s an amazing shooter. Why couldn’t he just shoot and shoot? Williamson clearly needed aid. The Pelicans needed more points.

I do not understand why he was out for closing.

I have an idea. His field goals made was only 4 of 12. Most likely that was it. Next season he should improve his efficiency.

@rezz It would be the most #Knicks thing ever if they did all this hustle for the #2 seed only to get swept by playoff Jimmy in the first round.

I think Knicks will advance TBH. Heat will go to 6 or 7 but their age is probably arriving now. Duncan has to go off, Ban can’t be a weak mfer, and Jimmy has to not have one off game.
