Welp, my Bulls/Pacers prediction was on point:......BULLS in 5! Bulls blowout Pacers to finish the deal and will face winner of Magic/Hawks series. I believe regardless of whichever team Bulls face, it will go to 6 with Bulls winning if Boozer AND Rose are playing sharp along with their defense. If one of the 3 aspects is missing, particularly Boozer and the defense then the series will go to 7 with either team capable of winning. Still not sold on Hawks or Magic beating Bulls but hey, anything in these playoffs is possible.

And now to our feature presentation....Lakers/Hornets. Very pivotal game for Lakers. How Gasol plays will be very essential in this game and moving forward.

I haven't checked out the statistics but most likely because of their defense and the 3-point game. Magic are like Duke, they live and die on the 3 (not really fond of teams like that).

After seeing Kobe posterize Okafor, I believe it's time for me to change pics.

Looks like Lakers are going to win tonight and Game 6 will be in NO. I need for Lakers to play the same way in NO to avoid a Gam 7.

With your LGM NBA report for today, here is your LGM Senior NBA Analyst: blyempowered...

Today:
Sixers vs. Heat. Heat lead the series 3-1. Will Heat close the deal in Miami or will Sixers somehow come out of Miami with a win and force a Game 6? I expect Heat to close the deal. I had them winning against Sixers in 5.

Grizzlies vs. Spurs. Grizzlies SURPRISINGLY lead the series 3-1. Will Spurs win at home and force a Game 6 or will Memphis complete the upset? Wow! This is a tough one to choose. I'm all for Grizzlies in this series but I think Spurs will play with A LOT of pride and send series back to Memphis.

Thunder vs. Nuggets. Thunder lead the series 3-1. Will Thunder close the deal or will the Nuggets extend this series to a game 6? I predict Thunder will win and end series. This has been a very disappointing series. I had this series going to 7.

It's hard to shock me but I'm shocked at how the Spurs are playing...fa'real!! :o :o :o :o Also, I hope KD and Russell Westbrook don't allow their little skirmish to affect the good of the team. Westbrook needs to keep himself in check and realize that KD is the leader of the team.

So how is everyone doing with their predictions so far, specifically the series that are done?

I predicted Bulls/Pacers correctly. Had Bulls winning in 5.
I got Knicks/Celtics ABSOLUTELY wrong. Had Knicks in 7. Boston won in 4.....SMH!

...totally.


Magic are like Duke, they live and die on the 3 (not really fond of teams like that).

...I disagree. 

...If you analyze the series closely you will see that Orlando's 3 point shooting percentage has been lower than usual and their mid-range shooting has been off as well.  The games that Atlanta have won even with the Hawks shooting at an above average percentage have been very close and have come down to the last 3 to 4 ball possesions.  It was just a matter of time that the Magic would start hitting shots both from inside and out.  They couldn't have gotten any worse.  What you saw last night was just that.  Hard defense which they've been playing "alright" defense this series and the ball finally going through the hoop. 

...the 1st half of last night's game Reddick, Richardson and Nelson where hitting their mid-range shots which gave them the lead at Half-time. 

...3rd Quarter - 3 Point Rainshower that kept the Hawks in their nest.  Dwight was not needed (8pts, 8 Rebounds) due to the fact that the Guards and Forwards finally showed up to play last night.

...if their shooting carries over to Atlanta there will be a Game 7.

Yeah if Orlando does well in shooting, they'll be a game 7.

In other stuff:

I listened to First Take (the podcast from yesterday) and there was a topic about whether Memphis is good enough to win the West.....WTW??? Some actually believe Memphis could get past LA, Dallas, Portland or OKC?....SMH! That's something I gotta see....hahaha!

I don't think they have a shot against the Lakers.  Not with their bigs.  Or OKC.

To play Devil's Advocate though, the Grizzlies ARE handling the #1 seed in the West.   Why not the number#2, #3 or #4 seed?
