Eastern Conference 1st round NBA Playoff Predictions

This has been an interesting NBA season so far. The 2014 NBA Playoffs are here. I'm going to make my first round Eastern Conference Playoff Predictions. Send me your comments on what you think about my predictions.


1- Indiana Pacers VS 8- Atlanta Hawks- I think the Pacers will find a way to win this series and get their chemistry figured out. The Atlanta Hawks I believe will win two games though in this series. I see the Indiana Pacers defeated the Atlanta Hawks in 6 games to win the series 4-2

2- Miami Heat VS 7- Charlotte Bobcats- I rarely bet on sports, but one of my friends bet me a dollar that the Bobcats will win this series. I also have a two dollar bet that the Heat will be the Bobcats. I feel this will be the easiest two dollars ever. The key for this series will be Dwyane Wade's health and the role players. I have no doubt that Lebron and Bosh will be huge in this series. The big key for the Charlotte Bobcats I believe will be Al Jefferson. He will have to step out and defend Chris Bosh when Bosh plays center. I see the Bobcats taking two games in this series. Miami Heat will win the series 4-2

3- Toronto Raptors VS 6- Brooklyn Nets - The Raptors don't have enough playoff experience. I do believe that the athleticism of DeMar DeRozan and point guard Kyle Lowry will be key in this series. Brooklyn has more playoff experience than Toronto. I think that Paul Pierce, Joe Johnson and Deron Williams will be too much for the Raptors. I do believe that Toronto will win two games before the series is over. I say the Brooklyn Nets will win the series 4-2

4- Chicago Bulls VS 5- Washington Wizards- This is the series I'm looking forward to the most. Joakim Noah will play like the nickname I give him "The triple double master". Rebounding will play a key in this series. I'm looking forward to watching point guard John Wall and shooting guard Bradley Beal play. Both teams I believe are deep in roster talent. I think this will be the only 7 game series in the Eastern Conference. I'm going to have the Chicago Bulls winning the series 4-3. I believe Washington can win three games because of Chicago having to deal with the athleticism of John Wall, the rebounding of center Marcin Gortat, and the three point shooting of Bradley Beal.
