Pacers Heat Grizzlies Spurs

I think the grizz and spurs will be a tough and gritty series, with it going 7 games


GO SPURS GO

The NBA will try its hardest to get Golden state to the WCF. They've been the only good thing about the playoffs so far.

 

[Dusty Bake Activate]

Spurs vs. Grizzlies will be the peoples' conference finals.

 

[LukeHobbs]

For the casual fan yes, but for most hardcore fans it will be piff

spurs would not be able to handle the heat IMO. The grizz with Z-Bo and Gasol in the lane and tony allen on lebron or wade

I don't get how you can be a fan of a sport and need certain teams to be playing for the championship in order to be interested. Good basketball is good basketball no matter who is playing it or where it's being played. True hoop fans are gonna off of these last two rounds, no matter who it is.

That's the whole point, some people don't think certain teams bring out good basketball. For example how people were praying that Michigan beat Syracuse because how ugly they are to watch.

I have no doubt that Spurs vs. Grizzlies would be a good series, but if Steph's ankles are in order, I would definitely rather GSW vs. Grizzlies. As for MIA-IND, I think what has people down on that is the inevitability of it all. The Pacers will put up some resistance but they're too inconsistent offensively to put the Heat away. For the Pacers to beat the Heat, Hibbert would need to get to the point where he's dominant. I'll watch, but I can understand lack of enthusiasm. With that said, given how the Knicks are playing, that would be horrible to watch too.

c/s i get tired of all the whining about matchups in the playoffs... If the 'sexy' teams had some fukking substance they would still be playing

That's how the NBA works though . When has a certain team making the Finals not been inevitable? This has less to do with quality of play and more to do with certain players/teams not playing. If the Lakers with Kobe were still playing and they looked just like the Grizzlies or the Pacers there would be no shortage of enthusiasm. If Melo and the Knicks and some of the caliber play they have produced were on the verge of the CF there woudl be no shortage of enthusiasm.

 

[Savior]

I dunno how any fan casual or not can hate on Spurs vs Grizz. At least those 2 teams have a chance vs Heat, warriors or okc would make it to 5 at most.

You have certain teams that are popular and whose fanbase will always be into it regardless. Don't mistake that for people being excited for their actual product on the court.
