Boston Vs. Brooklyn in East.

This one is a great match-up, I have a feeling that this series will reach game 7.
Looks like an ECF for me, it's just good that Brooklyn is now an underdog in the series while they are favored to win the NBA Finals during the regular season.

Do you think it's wise to take the Nets to win the series against the Boston?
They are now 2.09 at my bookie.

Yeah that odds is good. Bookmaker usually base there odds on team stats, They just adjust the odds the moment there’s a result on game 1. Brooklyn has a very good star players that can play under pressure with no sweat. Boston is proven to choke many ECF games before even though they have the upper hand base on odds especially on there match against bucks before. Nets has the high chance to get the ECF if they beat Bucks as the main hurdle for them.

I just hope that KAT will not be fouled out again in this series because it will be a huge problem for them if he will not play at the final minutes of the game.

Was there really a problem at the last minute?

When KAT was still playing, the Clippers were already ahead, it was only when KAT was out the Timberwolves did a great job with their own run to win. These young guys are so hungry for a win, although they are playing against an experience team, but they didn't panic, they keep their compusure and able to win the game.

Maybe I choose the wrong words but I'm pertaining to the Memphis-Twolves series on that. My apologies to that.
What I mean is that if he will not play in the final minutes on their games against the Grizzlies then it will be trouble for them.

KAT being fouled out is like a blessing in disguise for the team because their other players stepped up. Russel and Edwards took the seat and scored in the final minutes. Lets also not forget Beverley's defense and how he boosts the morale of the team. I agree with you though that this Timberwolves are hungry for the win and knowing that their last playoffs game was in 2018, they really are hungry for wins right now. I predicted Memphis in 5 here but I maybe change it in Memphis still though but in 7 games.

The 2-7 match-up in both conferences are very tough to predict TBH. Memphis Vs. Minnesota in West and Boston Vs. Brooklyn in East.

The Hawks was just too much for the Hornets. I thought it would be a closer match and it looked to be that way after the first two quarter but Hawks just controlled the game in the second half.

Next up is the Pelicans and Spurs. With both Ingram and McCollum on the floor, Spurs will have a rough time guarding/defending. I'm leaning towards a NOP win.

LaMelo Ball have no one to compliment his assets, the kid have so much to bring in the team if they only have an alpha they could have figure out another way to face the Hawks, that said, the Hawks really dominates them and continues to advance to in the 2nd half.

While on the Pelicans vs Spurs, the Pelicans have won the game (113-103) .. as expected McCollum did well and followed by Ingram.

McCollum is now the new superstar of the team, he can score anytime and from any angle on the floor. Because of him, Pelicans now have a good chance of going to the playoffs and I think they can give the LA Clipper a problem on a do-or-die game. BTW, for betters, Pelicans is +4 against the Clippers.

I was expecting tha the Clippers will win the game after seeing them having a comfortable lead when KAT was fouled out. But, the young roster of the Timberwolves did not gave up, Edwards was so big in this game as he leads the team for this victory.

Congratulations to the Timberwolves, they are now officially in the playoffs.
Can they beat the red hot Memphis?

I also predicted on the Clippers on winning on this one but I was wrong. Well, the Clippers still has another chance to maintain the 8th seed if they will win against the winner of the 9th-10th match-up.

Now with regards to TWolves beating Memphis, they simply can't. Just look at how the Grizzlies played this season. From being 9th only last season to now the top 2. That is a huge jump of the standings and with their young and talented roster, I believe that they can be a playoff team for at least 3 years. There is no chance for the Timberwolves to beat the Grizzlies. I'll go with Memphis in 5 games here.

Wow, that is a bold prediction.

Well, we all know that Memphis has had a great season so far, they even win many games without Morant, but we cannot underestimate the Timberwolves, they are also a balanced team and they are hungry for a win. They are now back in the playoffs after missing many playoffs, so I believe that they'll give the Memphis a good fight.

Yes its a bold prediction because I believe in the Grizzlies and I think that they will get this one.
Even though that is my prediction, I'm not saying that this series will be a close series. The morale of Timberwolves right now is at its highest just by looking on how they celebrated with their win against the Clippers.

I'm a bit biased with the Grizzlies so I think it would be better to say something about the Timberwolves as well. The acquisition of Patrick Beverley helped the team because he is like the captain of the team. He boosts the morale of his team, he is a good defender, he is an annoying defender we know that and his trashtalking is just at its peak to the point that it affects their opponents. I just hope that KAT will not be fouled out again in this series because it will be a huge problem for them if he will not play at the final minutes of the game.

It is a big challenge for Ja Morant to how he can continue his great performance when PAT will be put in charge to guard him. It's time for him to prove himself that he is a legit superstar already, and not getting easily intimated by the pesky defense of PAT. As of now, in the betting odds, they are the heavy favorite to win the series against the Timberwolves.

I was expecting it as well since they got the lead during the early quarters but Edwards and Russell is really hot in this game. I was laughing at Beverly's action standing on the side stands feeling like he won the NBA Finals ring already. Feels like they'll be trampled by the raging Memphis in this game.

There was a problem, Clippers take advantage on the absence of KAT but Timberwolves led by Rusell made a good rally to win, however, I would not say they really dominate that win, I would say they are just lucky to make all their shots and escape from that possible loss.

You own the pen

Now the Spurs and Hornets are out in the possible Playoffs spots, we will see who will gonna be taking the number 8 spots of each division. whether it would be Cleveland Cavaliers or Atlanta Hawks in the Eastern Conference or whether it would be LA Clippers or New Orleans Pelicans in the Western Conference. They need to get ready and be mentally prepared because these number 8 seeds will gonna face the strong number one seeds in each conference and if they are not prepared, they will go home early because it would be a short playoffs series for them.

Next up is the Pelicans and Spurs. With both Ingram and McCollum on the floor, Spurs will have a rough time guarding/defending. I'm leaning towards a NOP win.

The Hornets simply didn't have a chance as all of the Hawks' starting line-up played well in this game. Capela made a double-double, and he just dominated the paint with 17 rebounds. In addition, De'Andre Hunter scored 22 points, including 16 points in the 3rd quarter. I would also note Young's performance as he also made a double-double even though he clearly had problems with three-pointers in this game.

Hunter had the biggest contribution and key to their win. Stepping up their game. That's what the Hawks need even during the season but they cannot find it on anyone but here they go, a new discovery. They took advantage of the small lineup of the Hornets dominating below the rim and that made a huge difference in each quarter.
54 Hawks rebounds against 41 of the Hornets, 31 assists against 22 and Hawks are also careful with the ball with just 10 turnovers. But there's one more step before they can go to the playoffs.
Cavaliers have giant players so the same strategy won't work.

I was just able to watch the first 2 quarters and I said to myself that the Hawks are going to win this big against the Hornets inside. And Trae was really dominating early, assists and scoring and it seems that Hunter was a big contributor as they really took a lot of rebounds, and I agree that the small lineup didn't help the Hornets and the Hawks takes advantage of that with a huge win.

I was expecting more strength from Hornets as well, they were disappointing. LaMelo missed too many shots and they generally scored with low percentage. If Hawks want a play-off ticket Trae Young should shoot more accurately against Cavs.
CJ McCollum and Brandon Ingram had a good game but they haven't closed the door for Spurs yet. It's still close in last minutes and defenses talk now. If Keldon Johnson didn't start so awful it may be closer though.

The Big three versions of NO played well. CJ got 32 points, Jonas 22 and Ingram have 27, good to enough to secure the win.

Spurs did try to come back in the last quarter, but not enough. NO maintain the tempo and didn't stop to fight back, CJ's contributions

really helps the NO to win this game and to continue chasing their chance to the playoff, next game would be against the much tougher

Clippers.

And it seems that the home team has won the game in this play-in tournament so far, no surprises.

Right, usually Spurs can do damage in the 4th and mount a comeback or at least cut the lead. But Ingram took it on the last 2 minutes of the game and then Spurs missing 3 points and FT that can make the score even closer.

The New Orleans Pelicans defeated the Spurs in their first play-in game. CJ McCollum played amazing and helped them win this game. Ingram also gave a big boost to his teammate.
In Spurs, Vassell was the top scorer, but the Pelicans were ahead throughout the game and the Spurs could not catch up with their opponent throughout the game, they only played well in the final period

Doesn't matter who will replace Vogel, the question is how will they rebuild a team on Lebrons last year. I am not seeing Lebron seeing after next season if they suck, and probably even if they win, dude never had any problems leaving a winning team at all.

I feel like they need to build something amazing for one big blow up, and that doesn't look that much possible as it is right now. However we have seen Nets giving Harden for shell of a Simmons, so it is obvious that teams could make mistakes and someone may give something decent for Westbrook, dunno who and dunno how but if that happens and if Lakers build a great team, next season could be a revenge season by them.
