Apart from the above-mentioned series, every other series except the Jazz-Rockets series went as I expected in my predictions. T-Mac failed to win his first post season series after he claimed it was on him if the Rockets didn't win the series against the Jazz especially since he had home-court for the first time in his career. I expected him to take over a game at least once but he never seemed to have (from the boxscores from the series). He only had 30 points once although he had a couple 10+ assist games. I guess I was expecting more Kobe than Nash.
Well, back to the present... I am aware that the second round has already begun so I am kinda cheating but that's okay. Here are my predictions for the second round:
Disclaimer: this round is way harder than the last and I'll probably get most wrong.
Eastern conference
- Pistons - Bulls: Pistons win in six. The Bulls will find a way to get back in the series (they are 2-0 down now) but the Pistons will eventually prevail.
- Cavaliers - Nets: Lebron versus the dynamic trio. New Jersey in seven. I think the Nets have more firepower than the Cavs.
- Suns - Spurs: San Antonio in seven. This series can go either way but I think San Antonio will sneak it. Maybe the away team will even win all games. I wish Phoenix can win as I would love to watch a Phoenix - Golden State matchup to see how the two explosive teams fare against each other: organized chaos against street one-on-one basketball).
- Jazz - Warriors: Jazz in six or seven. I think the inside game of Carlos Boozer will prove key in this series.
