2010 Playoffs, Round 2 Predictions and Sni

Here's my predictions for the Second round matchups. I know that the Caveliers and Celtics have already played one, but i had my predictions set before game 1, just haven't got a chance to put them on here.

vs
(1) Caveliers ......... (4) Celtics
Season Series: Tied 2-2

Prediction: Caveliers in 6. The Celtics are playing much better than i thought they would. They'll probably give the Caveliers a hard time but in the end i don't think they can win more than a couple.


vs
(2) Magic .......... (3) Hawks
Season Series: Magic 3-1

Prediction: Magic in 5. The Hawks did great getting past the Bucks after being down 3-2, but the Magic i feel will dominate them and will only lose once to the Hawks.



vs
(3) Suns ......... (7) Spurs
Season Series: Suns 2-1

Prediction: Spurs in 7. This should be a pretty close series. Even with their struggles in the regular season, the Spurs are still such a tough team, and this series will probably go the distance.



vs
(1) Lakers ......... (5) Jazz
Season Series: Lakers 3-1

Prediction: Jazz in 7. Third time's the charm. The Jazz will struggle against the Lakers, especially in LA, but they'll force a game 7 and take the Lakers out in that game. The Jazz are due for a win in LA and i think will get at least one in this series. They may not win all their home games tho, the Lakers always seem to get one here too.

I hope you're right about the Jazz vs. Lakers series. We were SO CLOSE today in LA, sigh...

You aren't giving my Hawks much of a shot eh?

Well Paul, i definitely think they have a shot.. they are good, i just think thats going to be the end result. 4-1. Your Hawks are for sure capable of pulling the upset, i'm not ready to pull a Lakers for the Magic and talk like they're in the Finals already.

Yeah Eliza, a Jazz win in LA in game 7 would not be something anyone would really predict i'm sure, but, oh, i don't know, we'll just have to see. This to me is not just the same old regular Jazz team. They have quite a bit more fight in them.
