Shades of 90s playoffs!

Pathway to ECF

Semis between celts and sixers may be a blood bath - likely with celts advancing and embiid ailing, we beat the celts previously. We could ecf/nba finals. As long as not against golden state or phx, we could win the title this year.

This is what dreams are made up. Hoping both Knicks and heat can win their respective series.

First lets get the hell out of Cleveland and participate in some great DM narrative!
NBA like most leagues have achieved a form of parity with perhaps unlikely champion. There was not “it” team this year.
Miami has a tall mountain to climb to finish Bucks off. Jimmy has impressed many.
I’d say GSW last season was a surprise. It It had been a few years and injuries mattered but they came together at the right time.
They are not as formidable as in the past but they are still have it in them. The road record is really a fascinating issue.

The parity is incredible and amazing. worth saving guys for the post-season. being #1 in each conference means little.

no one is thinking that the nuggs will win it all.

Luka could have, too bad they tanked the play-in

Lakers are cold be reminiscent of knicks run in 1999.

Because of the lockout shortened season, and injuries to Sprewell, who missed 13 games due to a stress fracture in his right heel and Ewing, who missed 12 games with a knee injury, the Knicks had to build chemistry on the fly, and barely made the playoffs with a 27–23 record, fourth in the Atlantic Division. The Knicks had to win six of its remaining eight games just to qualify.

Lakers have a healthy Davis and Lebron, and the trade helped round out its roster in time for a late push. They could make some noise.
Knicks had the pieces but injury and new players made the strike short season harder to get going. They were expected to be good.

I will have to watch the ABC broadcast so I can see JVG's crazed expression looking at Bam's leg like it was a roast lamb, with thoughts of clinging to it for dear life.

I wouldn't count out Giannis and the Bucks just yet.

And let's take care of business with Cleveland first before even thinking about the cHeat.

But I will say if we do meet in the second round, it will be a bloodbath and we are sending Butler and cHeat home like the good 'ol days!

We got JHart to stop there best player!! Them winning would be huge in having a chance to get to ECF.

I’d luv to see a NY LA final.

Mash up of Thibian culture and Phil Jax Indian peyote warrior shit:

“RJ, you will not ascend until you face your demon, then take his place!”
“Destroy Jimmy Butler (the wounded bear) , then eat his heart. Then and only then will you be ready to go against upperclassman:
“The Duke, sir Jayson of Tatum”!
What lies next?
“The King”. Then you are the “King Slayer”!

RJ was drafted a knick, a pure blood from day one! His number shall hang enshrined forever surpassing all but the legends the first greatness!

Foretold by Nalodian, he shall put aside pettiness and reach down to the StarJay Doubters and pull them up to his equal, as on the bandwagon there is always room for more!

Join me in rejoicing this prophecy and relish in splendor of its glory!!
We have toiled in the desert for 50 years. Its time to go home!
