Other series

The Hawks managed to blow out Miami in the 7th game, and defending champion Boston squirmed past Chicago in the final minutes and were able to win. Here are the second round predictions for the playoffs.



2 Celtics-3 Magic
Prediction: Magic in 7
Comments: The Magic won the first game against Boston, but now the Celtics are getting back at them and lead by 15 at the half. Boston could probably get back to the finals this season without Kevin Garnett, that is what the Lakers did without Andrew Bynum last year, but my prediction is that Orlando will eventually get past the Celtics.

1 Cavaliers-4 Hawks
Prediction: Cavs in 5
Comments: The MVP and the Cavaliers annailated Atlanta in Game 1, and I think they will go on to win the series easily as they did in the 1st round against Detroit. Maybe the Hawks will wi! n at least 1 game, but the Cavs could also just sweep the Hawks.
