NBA Playoffs

Its my favorite time of the year, its the NBA Playoffs time.
We got a few good match ups, one being Spurs-Mavs, a Texans Rivalry. Lakers-Thunder, where Kobe and Durant battle it out in an epic match of respect, and last but not least, Celtics-Heat, where Wade will attempt to put the Boston Three party down.

I'll attempt to predict the winner of each match up with a little explanation after.

WEST

Lakers-Thunder: Lakers 4-2
Why? Kobe, that's why!

Spurs-Mavs: Spurs 4-3
It'll be a hard fought match, and because the Spurs have the upper hand with a better coach and more depth on the bench, a playoff match up like these could go many ways. It's all about Duncan vs Nowitzki, and the role they play as team leaders.

Portland vs Phoenix: Phoenix 4-1
Portland just lost Brandon Roy for 2 weeks, and the Suns are not about to bend over to an incomplete team, simply put, the Suns are back

Utah vs Denver: Denver 4-2
Denver has a sick team, and so does Utah, but I think Denver's playoff performance always surpasses anything Utah has ever dreamed of attempting.

EAST

Cavs vs Bulls: Cavs 4-1
The bulls will pull off 1 win, and 1 win only. It'll be a three point difference in the final score, but a 'w' is a 'w'.

Charlotte vs Orlando: Orlando 4-0 SWEEP
this should be easy, O-Town is back for another finals appearance, and as far as D-Howard's concerned, they got this in the bag

Bucs-Hawks: Hawks 4-3
The Bucs will bounce back and pull of some wins, but in the long run, Atlanta is Atlanta.

Heat vs Celtics: Heat 4-2
Its Miami's time. They can pull it off, and I hope they do.
