Yes. Sadly. Pacers wont be serious contenders unless they can sign Gordon and have George develop into a star. They are better than the "pretenders" but not a "contender".

They won't roll over, that's for certain. Well coached, play hard and the right way, just not talented enough yet.

There's no reason to even watch the East playoffs. I'm looking forward to every series out west though.

The Knicks will win one of the next 2 and get back in the series.

Lebron straight up abused Carmelo on both ends today, Melo needs a big bounce back game.

I think NY will get game 3, Miami will close out in 5

NYK winning a game does not equal them being back in the series.

They gotta win and play a tough, hard fought loss for me to think they have anything but a single win in this series.

New York won't win in Miami. Miami won't lose twice in New York. Heat in 5 tops.

Miami sweeps NYC and Chicago will win in 6 instead of 5 without Rose.

Does anyone think Dallas has a legitimate shot at upsetting OKC?

No. I think it goes 6, but I don't think OKC will ever in trouble of losing the series.

Is Durant ever going to add some NBA weight? Dude looks like a toothpick out there.

Durant is shooting horribly.

Westbrook however is carrying them

They were supposed to at the beginning of the year, they have gone away from it though.
