NBA Playoffs 2012

[heroscaper2010]

With the NBA Playoffs starting today (and the Bulls and 76ers already underway) I figured I'll start a thread where heroscapers can fill out their NBA Bracket and see who comes the closest. Try to have your bracket in by tonight as I started this a little late. Use the following sheet to fill out your bracket:

Round 1

West

(Series 1) Spurs vs Pacers

(Series 2) Grizzlies vs Clippers

(Series 3) Lakers vs Nuggets

(Series 4) Thunder vs Mavericks

East

(Series 5) Bulls vs 76ers

(Series 6) Celtics vs Hawks

(Series 7) Pacers vs Magic

(Series 8 ) Heat vs Knicks

Semi-Finals

West

(Series 9) Winners of Series 1 and 2

(Series 10) Winners of Series 3 and 4

East

(Series 11) Winners of Series 5 and 6

(Series 12) Winners of Series 7 and 8

Conference Rounds

West

(Series 13) Winners of Series 9 and 10

East

(Series 14) Winners of Series 11 and 12

Final

(Series 15) Winners of Series 13 and 14


Fill this out then post below (feel free to remove the 'Series' parenteses, this is just to reference to the next series). I will then link your post to this post with who you think will win it all in parentheses. Feel free to add any reasoning you'd like for your picks, otherwise just guess if you'd like.

There is no reward if you guess them all correctly except you the fact that you get 'bragging rights' I guess.

As a Cleveland fan, it's hard to say that LBJ and the Heat are going back to the championship to beat the Mavs, but it's James' turn to show what he can do (and you can't let personal feelings get in the way of your predictions). And I feel that's this year.

Heat in 5.

But congrats to Fisher for being a veteran leader. The Thunder would not be here otherwise.

I'd say the opposite. Thunder in 5, maybe 6 but I doubt it.

[BurnyFlame]

Heat in 5.


Wow, I'm good. Congrats, Heat!
