So we can start talking about the real teams. Suns, Celtics, Bucks, Heat etc....

Ugh. No more Lebron and Irving etc. Don't even these talking heads get tired of talking about same 2 teams? Over and over....

Suns v Bucks rematch. Would be fun.

What's hilarious is that 2 of their top 3 players don't even enjoy or even much like playing basketball. (Irving, Simmons)

Celtics and Bucks both trying to lose for that 3 seed

Bucks fucked up by beating the Celtics and staying at 2

As a Cavs fan would rather be the 8 and play Miami than Milwaukee, though Cleveland actually matches up well with the Bucks if Allen plays

If you think Celtics are trying to lose you must be hammering Memphis on the money line. Hell Memphis is +7 for the game.

Memphis is +255 on the moneyline. Easy clean up for you. Hell your standard 10k bet will make u 25k plus.

Its adorable how awful you are at this...

Grizzlies probably throwing out a G league squad today.

Probably should've said Boston should try to lose for the 3 seed . Would much rather play Bulls than Nets in the first round

2 seed still holds value. You get by brooklyn then you have home court vs bucks. Which will be handy.

Good. Him going 1 for 4 while crying about his mental health will be a big advantage.

Maybe him and Irving can finally figure out between the 2---who is more insane.

Media will have a lot of time telling us how great Durant is while he gets bounced in the 1st round. He just needs more help. The guy is so great. He just needs 4 all-nba players around him and he could have like sooooo many championships.

Will be interesting to see how it works/if Simmons back holds up

Simmons doesn't have to be a scorer like he sorta did in Philly. He's the lengthy defender the team needs. KD/Kyrie provide plenty of scoring

Simmons is a mental midget much like Irving.

They will lose in 1st round but don't worry---media will have their excuses ready.

Bucks/Nets would basically be the best two teams in the conference in the first round.

Probably would be close to a 50/50 series, would rather see it later in the playoffs with Simmons more integrated

Bucks would take Nets in 5. Would win all in Milwaukee and drop one in Brooklyn.

Milwaukee has 3 stars to Brooklyn's 2 and Milwaukee has the better supporting cast.

Remember last season was Holiday's first run with this team. He is much better this season.

Bucks, Celtics, Heat are the one of the 3 to come out.

Can't see Heat or Celtics beating a healthy Nets squad.

Playoff Marcus Smart is not pretty, has/could shoot them out of games

and Heat are too vulnerable trying to guard Kyrie -- bad match up

Milwaukee in 5. 6 at the most.

Still holding out the Nets are great. Thankfully Lakers didn't make play-in or would hear how they still have a chance.
