Predicting the First Round of the NBA Playoffs: Eastern Conference


Chicago Bulls (1): vs the Philadelphia Sixers (8)


c: Evan Turner appears to have been granted his one wish but his dream of advancing in the playoffs will most certainly be denied. Philadelphia has a negative chance of winning this series (think about that for a moment). Maybe on Earth Two Philadelphia has enough talent to pull off an amazing upset but unfortunately for Turner we do not reside in that realm. I'll give the sixers a charity game and say they lose in 5.
m: I'd say Evan Turner is overrated, but he's not much of anything in the NBA. He was way overrated in college, and I am still waiting to be impressed. I think the Bulls will clean up these games and get ready for the big boys, but the Sixers have been a surprise for everybody this year, and Rose's injuries could come back to hurt the Bulls a little. Luckily, the rest of team should be able to handle the Sixers. I say 4 - 2, Bulls.
