NBA Second Round Predictions

San Antonio Spurs vs. Los Angeles Clippers

Well, the Clippers survived Memphis, but will have further problems with the Spurs D. Tony Parker, who ruled the first round, will not score that much when CP3 is guarding him, and he will have a big series. To tell the truth though, even with big setups (via Chris Paul) Blake might get through Duncan's defense for the big dunk once.

Ginobli isn't getting any worse either.

Oklahoma City Thunder vs. Los Angeles Lakers

World Peace is back for the Lakers and that is a breakthrough for them. Thinking of 1-on-1 mathes like Bryant vs. Harden, World Peace vs. Durant, Gasol vs. Ibaka; it's going to be exciting! With Perkins' day-to-day injury (he could be out for the series), Bynum is huge, but could be tired due to a big game 7 games in a row.

The Thunder were the first to the second round and have been waiting.

Boston Celtics vs. Philadelphia 76ers

The Bulls lost their one superstar, D-Rose, and they lost to the Sixers. The Celtics have Rondo, who can complete any play with his big-time passes. Ray and Peirce can hit any 3 given to them. KG is an all around 4 who is almost never injured. And Avery Bradley has improved dramatically over the season.

The thing is, if one gets injured, then someone else will rise.

Miami Heat vs. Indiana Pacers

LeBron and D Wade combined for 61 points in Game 1, and most of that was after Bosh got injured.

The biggest thing in that sentance was that Bosh got injured. Who will challenge 7'2'' Roy Hibbert? He's so tall, and an all-star!

That will be a big problem for the Heat, but if James and Wade keep scoring, they should be ok.
