LOL Leave it to a woman to ask 6 questions at once and expect us to follow all of them.

Will the winner of the series beat Chicago? Miami? still think miami wins it all

My thoughts are that Dallas will win the first at home, although I want Oklahoma to win tonight and the series.
The winner of the series should beat Chicago or Miami unless Dallas/OK goes 7 games & Chicago (which i think will win that series) wins it in 4.

.

Best HelenRnurse thread ever? By a longshot!!!

I expect Dallas to win tonight, but I think OKC has a very legit shot at winning the series. Who is going to guard Westbrook and Durant on Dallas?

I'm picking OKC to win the series in 6 or 7 games... and I'm going to stick with my Thunder Bulls prediction from the beginning of the postseason. Can't wait for this series, best combination of conference finals in years... both series are winnable for either team, and there is no true favorite going into the finals for the first time in, well, ever. Let's do this!!!

Right now I think whoever wins the west is the favorite in the finals, although the Chicago defense/ regular season record and Miami star power will make the vegas odds favor the eastern conference winner.

Wow at the series price right now. No way the Mavs are 2-1 favorites (ie there is a ton of value in betting OKC IME).

U saw -200 /+170?

I'm 0-6 picking nba playoffs this year so I'm gonna try to continue the streak.

I think OKC is gonna beat +6 so I'll take dallas minus the points.

Seeming as the Perkins trade was made with the Lakers' frontcourt in mind, coupled with the fact he got 4 and 34, early returns show that trade as a rare Thunder player transaction fail.

If they insist on playing him 30+ mpg this series they'll be in trouble (unless Westbrook godmodes like I think everyone thinks he will).

PS...is this the one draft lottery where you don't wanna waste your run good and save it for the next 2 to three drafts after this one? Yes IME

O/U on Defensive 3 second calls on Dallas tonight?

going with 6.5

C'mon ptownbrad. Embrace the legend and get back to posting epicness.

Getcha some!!!! We would 'no juice' a friendly bet anyway. I wouldn't bet vs the Mavs, MFFL, etcetc.

Any sense of revenge, to me, would be fabricated.

A fan, with the tormented past that comes with being a Maverick fan, can harbour ill-begotten memories from a series as far back as 1987, they are free to seek revenge in any form necessary to exercise those demons.

Basically, Mavs fans that lasted from the Harper/Blackman/Fat lever era to now deserve to gleam any glory possible.

Let it ride!!! ?

I think it would be really cool to see Dirk get it done.

But damn, I love this Thunder team, and I love the OKC fans. I'm curious to see who I end up rooting for.

So much this. It would be cool, IME, to see JKidd lift the golden net with the golden ball on top. Mos' Definitely.

Totally underestimated Carlisle's ability to gameplan effectively.

Unfortunately, this ref crew is determined to put their fingerprint on this game. MFFL
