2. The Donald Sterling issue caught up to the Clippers - It had to fatigue these guys, I felt like the collapses in gave 5 and game 6 was more a result of mental than physical fatigue.
3. Both Conference Finals series are going 7 - As a bettor I’m looking to play the ziz-zag and the dog heavy in this round. The four elite teams in the League are left and while all have questions each has a complete resume explaining why they can win the title.
(a) Pacers - Lost in 7 last year to the Heat. Lost last two year to the Heat. Have survived the 1st two rounds despite not playing their best.
(b) Thunder - Lost in the Finals in 2012. Have the reigning League MVP. Have survived the 1st two rounds despite not playing their best.
( c) Spurs - Are the Spurs
(d) Heat - See spurs answer
Not only are the resume’s compelling but each team is extremely familiar with their opponent. I’m looking forward to two 1980 type series were Home court is vital but either team is capable of winning in a must win situation.
4. Pacers Heat feels like Lakers Kings 2002 - I remember that year, we all got seduced by the Kings fancy passing and rocking arena. It felt like the Lakers run would end at two because they would have to play a game 7 on the road. In the end the best player in the world was on the Lakers at the time and the Kings just weren’t ready, I feel as we are going to be saying the same thing at the end of this series.
