NBA Playoffs

          

                 


                           Former championship teammates to possible rivals in chase of a championship?
Maybe next year....
                           

                      Entering this season my picks for the finals were Denver over Indiana.  As a University of North Carolina fan I thought it would be neat to see former Tar Heel teammates Ty Lawson and Tyler Hansbrough to face one another in the biggest games of their careers.  I wanted Denver to win it all because I love watching them play. I watched a bunch of their games this year and each time it was exciting.  I was bummed when they were eliminated in the first round, but I'm happy for Golden State. Stephen Curry has been beasting since his Davidson days and Clay Thompson, Jarret Jack, and of course former Tar Heel Harrison Barnes play their hearts out.  Both Denver and Golden State or exciting to watch.  Since Denver is out I wouldn't mind seeing Stephan Curry and the squad playing in the finals.  Pacers are still alive and likely going to move to the next round.  I like their chances of matching up against Miami Heat, assuming they get past the Bulls lead by the energizer bunny himself, Nate Robinson.  All in all this years playoffs has gotten me excited about the NBA again.  Something I thought was unlikely recently.
