Two things maybe three, if the Spurs are better than the Rockets and the Clippers beat the Spurs, they'll win this series against the Rockets too, many people are probably going with Clippers since they already used Blake like me and don't want to dare imagine the team they thought would lose that won to advance twice more than initially expected (and that means a great opportunity to pass a chunk of players) and with Chris Paul out James Harden should have a super game (50+), of course if the Clippers could somehow pull this one out without Paul (and better yet in OT) that would be superb! However I have to believe the Clippers will win the series even if they lose G1.aceee06https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961354981984051654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-30617794807797433652015-05-04T17:41:39.430-07:002015-05-04T17:41:39.430-07:00"3mCleveland Cavaliers@cavs

Without Kevin Love, does Cleveland really have enough to beat the Bulls? And even so at best with a real stretch they have 3 possible decent picks and 2 great ones remaining, to select from. The Bulls have several more options.<br /><br />Cleveland beat Chicago 3 wins to 1 head to head (2 home, 1 road for the Cavs). The Clippers and Rockets split 4 games 2-2 with each team winning one on the road. The Rockets have only won 3 of the last 10 vs. the Clippers, and I do believe they will eventually prevail in that series, even if they do punt the first game played in Houston, although not totally confident. With Bulls vs. Cavs, anything can happen really.<br /><br />The Clippers vs. Rockets series will definitely be the higher scoring one of the two, and they seem to have a slight edge head to head when playing vs. each other. Redick, Jamal Crawford, and even Matt Barnes have had more success vs. Houston ( a less defensive team) vs. what they have ever put up vs. the Spurs in the past. So those players can be played here with decent expectations, other than Chris Paul and the elite Blake Griffin. DeAndre Jordan has also had some great games vs. Houston, but most of those happened while Dwight Howard was not playing vs. him, so that may be a huge factor in how well Jordan does here vs. the past.<br /><br />I will pick from the higher scoring series, Clippers vs. Rockets, and pick a Rocket player tonight. Going with Terrence Jones for Houston hoping for 25+ PRA from him tonight. I toyed with the idea of picking JJ Redick or Jamal Crawford, (and still might if Chris Paul really doesn't play), but for now I chose to go with Terrence Jones on home court and watch some other things transpire for future picks.Daytonanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794801666266415731.post-21955980900902536532015-05-04T15:10:41.815-07:002015-05-04T15:10:41.815-07:00Okay, my pick yesterday was not good, netted me a ...Okay, my pick yesterday was not good, netted me a 0 ;)<br /><br />Tonight it's Rose on the most rest he will have in these playoffs. Hope for 35+.<br /><br />Tomorrow it must be a Hawk. Caroll was my favored pick for game 1 that I forgot to pick, he is now the first Hawk to get 20+ points in five consecutive Playoffgames, can he make it six in a row? Or maybe I schould pick Horford or Millsap as the most reliable choices? Decisions, decisions.<br /><br />Atlanta and Memphis play on the same dates, there are only two Grizzlies that you have to pick, I plan on picking them at home in games 3 and 4. Curious to see if the Wizards can pull it off and oust the Hawks.
