Pacers in 5 Nets in 6 Spurs in 4 Thunder in 7 Hella: ECF: Miami WCF: T'Blazers BONUS QUESTIONS are interesting because they're both lil implicit questions of how many more games each guy is gonna have Dame Bonus: 1 if we're talking only buzzer-beating game 7 shots, 3 if it's a slightly broader definition including putting them up 4 with 10 seconds left? What is a game winner? Hibbert Comes Alive: 6-9

Nope unless it's an And-One freethrow

Nah I'll count it as to avoid setting some arbitrary limit (should it be winning by a point? two? three?? four???) and over complicating it. If the Blazers are up 10 I doubt lillard would be making and taking the last shot.

If the Blazers are up 10 I doubt lillard would be making and taking the last shot. That's the worst metric ever. Why not just make it Lillard go ahead bucket (or freethrow(s)) and Blazers win without scoring again? It's the most obvious way to read the question. Lillard putting the blazers up by 18 with 40 seconds left isn't much of a game winner. Bashez fucked around with this message at 03:02 on May 5, 2014 |

Pacers vs Wizards - Pacers in 5 Heat vs Nets - Heat in 6 Spurs vs Trailblazers - Spurs in 6 Thunder vs Clippers - Thunder in 7 Eastern Finalist Bonus: Heat Western Finalist Bonus: Spurs The Roy Hibbert Bonus: 6-9 The Dame Bonus: 1 Wizards don't do what the Hawks do. If they can get the Pacers to play 100 point games they can win those but they often have trouble manufacturing those themselves. Pacers will be a bit better Nets are capable of beating the Heat a bit in the regular season, but a lot of those games were pretty close and didn't feature the best play the Heat could muster. I think the Nets might get the first one, then get the first one at home, but the Heat will probably be pretty locked in otherwise. I think the Spurs and Trailblazers are going to have some pretty close games, but I give the edge to the Spurs because they're better at defense. Scotty Brooks is going to get outcoached and Blake Griffin is going to have some amazing games. Unless Blake Griffin has 4 amazing games though, Westbrook and Durant will probably carry the Thunder through.
