There are three games on Thursday
Orlando at Atlanta, Game 6 - Hawks lead 3-2
LA Lakers at New Orleans, Game 6 - Lakers lead 3-2
Dallas at Portland, Game 6 - Mavericks lead 3-2
I think Dallas will advance to next round, but I won’t be surprised if Portland comes up with a W on Thursday.
It is likely that Hawks will send Magic home tonight and picking a Magic should be fine. One might think that after yesterday’s performance Magic gained confidence which might be enough to win rest of the games in this series. But still picking a Magic might be okay coz I think Bulls will beat winner of this series in next round.
Lakers should finish the series on Thursday and picking a Hornet seems a way to go. But Hornets are playing at home and Lakers are playing sloppy basketball for few weeks now. CP3 was able to beat them twice by himself. Can he repeat it for two more times in next two games? I don’t think so. Also compare to Hornets, Lakers are so tall that they hardly let Hornets grab any rebounds. Yesterday Lakers out rebounded Hornets 42 to 25 and I don’t think its enough to win remaining two games.
If I have to bet my money on the team who will advance to next round on Thursday, I’d say its Lakers and I am going with a Hornet. Trevor Ariza is my pick
