The Cavs/Bulls Game will go up to 6 games...Cavs or Bulls.

The Cavs can squeak-out of this round, but without Kevin Love...It's iffy....ohno:ohno:ohno:ohno:ohno:

The Cavs can squeak-out of this round, but without Kevin Love...It's iffy....ohno:ohno:ohno:ohno:ohno:

Well I'm gonna stick with the Bulls, they finally got D-Rose back and if he can stay healthy, they'll give Lebron and Irving Hell, plus they got all the weapons in Noah, Gibson, Gasol (who is the veteran of the team) and Butler along with Dunlevy, Jr. and Moore

They also have a better bench than the Cavs

also, I would like to see the Hawks vs. Bulls just like the days of Michael Jordan and Dominique Wilkins and also, in the Western Conference if the Rockets take on the Grizzlies, it will be a BIG TIME Rival there and a DOGFIGHT, but personally, I would like to see the Warriors vs. the Clippers for the Western Conference Championship and IMO, THAT is gonna be one helluva DOGFIGHT

LOL@MrCleveland hahahahahahahahahahahaha. The Cavs lost yesterday and I didn't like coach David Blatt starting Mike Miller in Kevin Love's place. He should've started Tristan Thompson in Kevin's place. If the Cavs don't win the next game, they might lose the series because it's gonna be tough for them to win in Chicago. Chicago does have a better bench than Cleveland. Cleveland is also gonna have a problem matching up against Chicago's big men Gasol, Noah, Mirotic and Gibson. I see David didn't play Kendrick Perkins and Brendan Haywood yesterday and he needs to play them against Chicago's big men. If he doesn't play them, Cleveland will lose. JR Smith will be back for Cleveland for game 3. I hope Cleveland can win this next game Wednesday. Nice pictures of Michael Jordan and Craig Ehlo, Dominique Wilkins and Bernard King, Muggsy Bouges and Spud Webb, Chris Paul and James Harden, Doc Rivers and Kevin McHale. I was surprised the Clippers won yesterday because I picked Houston to win. It was impressive that they won without Chris Paul. Golden State is gonna beat Memphis.

The Cavs WILL be out of the playoffs and NOT win a title!

There's NEVER Next Year!

Hey guys, after 3 games, all 4 teams have won at home and those 4 are the #3 and #5 Seeds whom def. the #1 & #2 Seeds

#GOBULLS

Hey guys,

after 4 games in the NBA Playoffs Quarterfinals, 6 teams are even, but only 1 team has made a statement

In the Eastern Conference, the Atlanta Hawks, the Washington Wizards, the Cleveland Cavaliers and of course, the Chicago Bulls are now tied at 2 a piece

They each won a game on their home court and a game on the road

They are all 2-2 each

In the Western Conference, the Golden State Warriors become ROAD Warriors once again as they even the series with the Memphis Grizzlies and they, too are 2-2

But as for the team that has made a statement, well that team happens to be the Los Angeles Clippers as they go 3-1 against the Houston Rockets and right now, James Harden, Dwight Howard, Jason Terry and Coach Kevin McHale all have the backs up against the wall

Can they SURVIVE?

That's the Question!

Find out beginning tomorrow night on TNT

The Hawks, the Cavs, the Warriors and the Rockets all head back home for Game #5 and in Game #6, the Grizzlies, the Wizards and the Bulls all head back to their home court and if the Rockets win tomorrow night, then the Clippers will head back home to their Home Court
