I think the Hawks win in 6. I think Carroll keeps Lebron in check, and Korver gets his shot back. Regardless of the outcome, I think this will be a better series than most believe.

 

If Korver rebounds that definitely changes the dynamic of the series.

I want to see how the cavs duo of kyrie and lebron shoot in this series. They were horrible in fg% last series so if they can get back up to their regular selves I think it's the cavs series to take. If lebron shoots in the 30% s and kyrie too like last series (not sure if that Stat is completely correct but it's close I know) then the Hawks will take it.

Atlanta has to be the winningest team to never be taken seriously as a title contender.

Anyone picking them in this series?

A few months ago: yes.  I truly believe they were the second best team in the NBA at one point this year.  However they're yet to impress me in the playoffs.  They haven't looked anything close to the team they were in January.  I ultimately feel like LeBron will be too much in this series even with the Cavs being as banged up as they are.  I think LeBron is just gonna be LeBron and Kyrie will have enough big games to pull it out in 6-7 for the Cavs.  

 

Hawks in 5 if they somehow return to their January form.

    • Went to school in MD when this came out. Dance floor got CRAZY when this joint came on!
    • They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.   
    • There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks seem to be Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team). Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?
