2013 NBA Playoff Predictions (Predictions in Description)

Yeah so I think this is my 3rd time doing this. Remember this is just my opinion of how I think things will happen. I'm hoping I do well with my predictions and I'm not too awkward so yeah. I'm mostly concerned about the series results, not how long the series goes. Here we go: First Round East Miami Heat vs. Milwaukee Bucks Miami will sweep in 4 games. Look who Miami have. Now look who Milwaukee have. Nuff said. Brooklyn Nets vs. Chicago Bulls I think this will go 7 games and the Nets will just pull it off. Bulls, like last year, are very unfortunate when it comes to injuries and that's been a distraction for them. They're not as much of a 1-man team as last time but still. Indiana Pacers vs. Atlanta Hawks I haven't paid much attention to either teams this year but I think Indiana has the edge and will win in 6 games. New York Knicks vs. Boston Celtics Both teams have some injuries that required adjustments, but I think Boston with Rondo is the more brutal and that will show. This will be a good series, although maybe a bit overhyped, but the Knicks win in 6 games. West Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Houston Rockets Obviously the key storyline will be Harden vs. his old team. I don't think Harden will have the last laugh though. Rockets seem like a team for the future, but in the present, I say Thunder wins in 5 games. Los Angeles Clippers vs. Memphis Grizzlies Both these teams are looking really good and this will at least be 6 games, probably 7 IMO. Clippers will advance IMO. Denver Nuggets vs. Golden State Warriors I'm a Warriors fans so just in case I digress and go biased, I apologize. Both of these teams seem underrated to me. Between the two you have a lot of impressive players like Andre Miller, Lee, Iguodala, and Curry that will make some fireworks. In 6 games, I think the Warriors will pull through but I think these will be close, high scoring games for sure. San Antonio Spurs vs. Los Angeles Lakers Usually everyone's talking so much about the Lakers because they're usually good; this time all eyes are on them because it's been their worst season in a while. Props to them for making it to the playoffs and I really hope Kobe Bryant gets well soon, but time for this fairytale to end quickly with the Spurs shutting them out 4-0. Conference Semifinals Heat vs. Nets This will be a slightly more difficult game, but the Heat seem to have the Nets beat everwhere you look. 5 games will be how long it takes for Heat to progress. Indiana vs. Knicks I've seen and heard a lot more good things about the Knicks than the Pacers, so I think Knicks will win in 6 games. Thunder vs. Clippers This will be a 7 game series, I'm sure of it. Both of these teams are great and it all depends on the mentalities that they bring from their previous matches. I might shock a lot of people but I think the Clippers will win in 7 games. Warriors vs. Spurs This is also a close one to call. I know the Warriors won their most recent match against the Spurs but the Spurs were missing some key players. This might be because I'm a Warriors fan but in my eyes I can see it happening. In 7 games, probably with a bit of luck, Warriors move on by just an inch. Sorry Spurs... Conference Finals Heat vs. Knicks This can either be the big moment of the season or the end of the anticlimaticness of the East. It will be settled no sooner than in 6 games, but I say in 7 games the Heat make it to the finals for a 2nd time. Clippers vs. Warriors Ok so the Warriors have been good, but I don't think they've been NBA Finals good. Clippers take this one in 6 games. Final Series Miami Heat vs. Los Angeles Clippers I don't think this will be a 7 game series, probably 6. Don't ask me why, I can't really explain it. This will definitely be a great final and there will be a lot of exciting moments. But I think the Clippers will win it all. However, all in all I know if this happens, Miami won't be that upset. 3 final appearances in a row is something incredible. So comment, like, subscribe! Tell me what you thought of my predictions and what you think will happen in your eyes! I'll check back and update as the playoffs go on. Thanks for checking out my predictions! Updated May 5th, 2013 Well epic fail that my pick to win LA Clippers lost on the first round but then again I can't predict injuries, nor would I WANT to. Aside from that I got all of them right besides the Bulls beating the Nets but I knew that one would be the closest series of the 8. So overall it was an ok round. 6/8 These predictions will not have much jurisdiction but it's just to see my thoughts. I think Thunder, Warriors, Heat, and Knicks will move on the the Conference Finals. Warriors have to make sure they don't make silly mistakes and Warriors Spurs will go at least 6 games. Heat will beat the Bulls in 5 games. Thunder will lose at least one game to the Grizzlies but they'll still take care of them.
