Mavs and Suns are going to game 7, I am also expecting Bucks and Celtics will have a game 7, otherwise it'll end on game 6 If the Celtics repeats the same mistake. They could've the lead by now If they didn't become comfortable with their lead in game 5.
Girzz and GSW might have a game 7 as well since the Grizz has been performing their best even without Ja.
The 2nd round is really interesting for most of the series.

In my own opinion, the suns will lose game 7 to the Mavericks this Sunday  because there is no way a team can win a game in Dallas because its tough to play there and the mavericks are a good 3 point shooting team and the suns are really in trouble because if they lose game 7 Chris Paul will never hear the end of this. Suns had their chance last year and have had an air of entitlement, arrogance and overconfidence this year.

Dallas will be playing at the home court of the Suns, they have not won a single game in this series on the road as well, so the advantage is on the Suns. What I like about Dallas is they have the momentum in game 7, so expect a great game, for sure it's an intense game and a very physical game.

Dallas will be back at Sun's home court and it's true that both teams didn't win any road game. That's the reason why the

Series ended up in a final one game final, win or rest for the whole season. It will be fate that will allow
any team between the two to move forward and play for another series for the WCF.

We can't really predict, it's a matter of how the players and the system from both coaches to implement and win the
game.

And that's what they need in game 7, be physical and not let the Suns take over otherwise it will be over. We know that the Suns has the advantage inside with Ayton, but at least throw same screens and then take advantage of the mismatch which they have been doing but it is not effective when they are playing at the Suns homecourt. And the Mavs needs to improved their shooting too if they wanted to pull the biggest upset in this playoff and win against the West top seed.

Mavs are moving the ball very well, but if they will give up easily, that would be giving the easy win to the Suns after a hard-fought last 6 games. Luka is not new in game 7 series, he failed before but maybe this time he can get this one. Luka and Brunson have played well in game 5, it was only Bullock, Finney Smith, and Dinwiddie who are off, if they'll play better, maybe Mavs can give a great match up.

To be honest, I expect we'll only see game 7 in the Celtics vs. Bucks series, while other teams will most likely finish the second round in 6 games.

Since I'm rooting for the Sixers and Mavericks to win their respective game tonight, I will contradict your statement by saying, there will be a Game 7 in both series. Smiley But honestly, I'm sure these teams that are currently downed at a 2-3 deficit will not just give up.

Game 6 is their decisive game and surely all the pressure to win is here.

I really hope both of these teams will even the series and force a Game 7.



I really like your enthusiasm about rooting for behind team. Mavericks beat Suns with huge game and force game 7 on Suns home while on the other hand which everybody not expecting, Philadelphia already losethe series against Heat with a close fight. Joel Embiid do his best effort to carry his team mate but it seems that his team mates didn't manage to help him to close the gap until the end.
Yes, the Heat finished it out and now moving to the Eastern finals. I also thought that the Philadelphia will play very good at their home court and specially how Joel has been playing. But Joel fell short and so is James Harden, another season ending for him without getting close to a NBA ring. They started the year with a big drama on Ben Simmons case but move forward, they just being unlucky I guess.
They know that Embiid isn't 100% and yet Harden choked in the crucial game of their season.
Its a must-win for the 76ers but Harden didn't stepped up. 0 points in the 2nd half? He's unreliable especially in times like this. I don't know if who to blame with this. If its Harden or Embiid or Coach Doc Rivers.

Well, it is what it is. Congratulations for the Heat as they will wait for the Celtics/Bucks winner in the ECF. For the Sixers, changing their coach might be their first move this off-season. Maybe putting D'Antoni as their head coach what can you say?

That series is finally over, but we have a suns/mavericks game 7, and that is good enough.
I think in the 2nd round, that's the only series that will go to game 7 as I believe Bucks and Warriors will finish their series tomorrow.

This is though season to them knowing that they are been on huge challenges and we can add up that changes of roosters which totally affect their rotation. Its still good to see them advance to playoffs and next season should be huge adjustment to be made for the rooster they currently have also for their possible picks or trades. Good to see also what performance brought by Miami and we can see that they have edge to win a championship this season.

^ One thing that go with Warriors and Bucks is that they can close it out in their home court. And we all know that most of the times, home court advantage is a big factor in playoffs. I mean you have all the crowd behind you. So specially this two teams to advance to their respective division's final, I don't think they wanted to see another game. So I see a very close game between the Warriors and the Memphis, same with the Bucks and Celtics. And I will be leaning towards the home team here.

They have not won a home game yet this series, so I believe 76ers will come out and play hard to even the series. A game 7 is good for the league, both Mavericks and 76ers will win the game tomorrow, and we will have an unpredictable series.

Yeah, the Heat haven't won an away game in this series, but they won by 35 points just by destroying the 76ers in the previous match. So if the Heat performs as well tonight, it's unlikely that the 76ers will be helped by home-court advantage. Same with the Mavs, they lost to the Suns by 30 points in their previous match. To be honest, I expect we'll only see game 7 in the Celtics vs. Bucks series, while other teams will most likely finish the second round in 6 games.

Mavs and Suns are going to game 7, I am also expecting Bucks and Celtics will have a game 7, otherwise it'll end on game 6 If the Celtics repeats the same mistake. They could've the lead by now If they didn't become comfortable with their lead in game 5.
Girzz and GSW might have a game 7 as well since the Grizz has been performing their best even without Ja.
The 2nd round is really interesting for most of the series.

Only Miami manages to advance to the finals, everyone still has game/s to compete. For both Bucks and Warriors, they both need

to win inside their home court, else, the opposing team may upset them if another game will be played on their own home court.

Things that are possible to happen when a do-or-die take place. We can't tell if how GSW and Bucks will finish the series or if we

will see another game for both Memphis and Boston.

Same prediction with the first two games mentioned but not with the GSW. They will try and end it in Game 6, that's for sure. They had enough rest and they kept their trio healthy and just avoided unnecessary accidents during Game 5, benched them for like 19 minutes.

Luka Doncic is absolutely fun to watch, although I don't like isolation plays, it's different when he is the one doing the moves. So old school and maximizing his skills from fakes, spin moves, and shooting. Suns must have someone who will focus on him. Craig tried, so did Crowder, and Bridges. Maybe Johnson? Crowder is too dirty and gets easily frustrated, he cannot win a match against Luka if his emotions will get the best out of him.

I definitely did not expected Grizzlies to win that big, I mean of course any team could win, and that wouldn't be a shock if Memphis wins, that's normal, but to win by 40 points is a big deal, they did this to Warriors who everyone said that they are basically back to their amazing selves, so to beat them by 40 points is not just one win, but it also shows that this isn't the same Warriors of few years ago.

To think that 2015 where their first victory (iggy fmvp year) happened 7 years ago makes me feel old. Bucks winning definitely helps their case for a repeat as well, Celtics is one of the best in the east right now and beating them is definitely a big deal.

We didn't see that coming, everyone thought that this will be the final game of the series between the Warriors and the Grizzlies.

But when you look at the score, it's not even close, just the 3rd quarter points that Memphis score? that's truly an impressive display on firepower. Nevertheless, I still think that the Warriors are going to win and it will be a struggle for Memphis because of Ja Morant's absence.

Celtics choking against Giannis monster game, no one can really stop him. They are successful early, but when it's crunch time, this great players shows what they are made of.

In game 4 it was Bucks that choked in the game, now they are even. LOL
Anyway, the series is not over yet, Celtics are still a dangerous team because if they can win game 6, they can win the series in game 7.

I would not be too complacent though I have my bet on the Bucks to win the series, I took it when they were the underdog and I feel good now.

It was a disaster for the Warriors, they should have close the Memphis, not they give them a fresh leashed on life. That was a huge win and hopefully the Warriors can bounce back from that. They still have Curry though, they have the experience to win this series.

Pretty good game last night between the Bucks and Celtics. I’m pretty confident the Bucks are going to take that series down and of course the differentiating factor being Giannas. When a team has a mega star like that it’s just too hard to get past them. On the other hand the Warriors have two mega stars and I can’t believe that game last night holy shit lol. They’ll be fine though.

Yeah, still the reigning champion time to shine this playoff. When you thought that they are out already, comes Giannis again. Him and Horford had a great battle, and Giannis accepted the Giannis, the bad thing is the Horford and the rest of the Celtics really wake up the giant in Giannis and literally carry again the team in his shoulder. If he can get past the Celtics, there is no question that Giannis is the next big star of the league as he always raised his game during playoffs.
