Who forces game 7?

[Seto]

Interesting year with 6 series going at least 6.

Rockets (likely around -1.5)
Celtics (likely around -1.5)
Clippers (+5.5)
Nuggets (pk)
Nets (+2)
Hawks (likely around -2)

The 3 "likely" lines are my predictions. Anyway, you can get most teams down 3-2 as either dogs or short faves. Who wins?

I def. think we get more than 1 game 7. Expect Stern to step-in here and pounce on this opportunity for a wide range of game 7s.

If i had to pick two that are most likely, I'd say Houston and Brooklyn.

hope houston beats okc.

I think one of Rockets or Celtics has to win, so the 3-0 comebacks at least go to the wire.

Nuggets and Clippers are done IMO.

Nets and Hawks could/should do it but I hate betting on these 2 teams.

Pacers and Thunder will host a game 7.

Atl is done

[rm18]

Rockets, Celtics, Nets

Atl is done

I half-agree but people thought they were done down 2-0 as well. Maybe this is going to be like the Bos/Atl series in 08 which went 7 which all 7 home games easily won by the home team, particularly the 4 for the favorite.

[hawley]

Nets.

Think Pacers win the next one.

Celtics lose next one

THunder win next one.

Grizz win next one.

Atl is done

Maybe, but after seeing how Indiana played at Atlanta, I'm not too sure.

I fell into the trap game 3 and took Pacers +2.5. I had seen the trend showing that Atlanta had won 13 of 14 games vs Ind at home since 2006 and ignored it. Didn't make that mistake for game 4. I have no faith in Pacers on the road right now.

nets and rockets

[sonofben]

Nets

Actually, I think Clips force a game 7. Its always the series that shows no indication of the away team winning (Clips in this case) and somehow they win. Clips have been dreadful last 3 games and I get the feeling they will be the one to somehow find a way. And esp since this is what happened with this series last year, wouldn't surprise me one bit to see it happen again here.

I don't see why everyone is counting out the Nuggets. They're a pick and Vegas seems to welcome GS money.

I feel like we're going to get 4 game 7's. Not going to say who since I don't want to jinx my picks

[Jikos]

Hawks Nets Rockets

[amrit]

Nets, Rockets, Clippers, Hawks (being really optimistic with the clippers, as I have a series bet on them)

[gopolks]

Who the hell do you bet on now? This is crazy. I still think the thunder will go through and the clippers.

[lonegambler]

kinda funny how the first round was so spaced out schedule wise, nba did notwant to have any teams sit around, and be asked those questions like the scheduling for first round very possibly could've left us literally with no basketball for like 5 days if there was a 2 sweeps and teams winning in 5games, so i defintely think stern steps in here and forces at least 3 game 7's so he can suck up all the $$$$ ratings remember this is his last go around
