NBA Playoffs – Game 2 Predictions (Grizzlies vs Thunder, Warriors vs Clippers)
The weekend is over, so it means less busy days of playoff games, and better focus on each one.

NBA Finals – Spurs vs Heat Game 2 Predictions
No team that has lost its first two games at home in the NBA finals went on to win the NBA title. That’s why the Miami Heat are in a must-win situation heading into game 2, while the San Antonio Spurs are feeling confident without trying to show it too much, unlike other teams that lost to the Heat along the way.

NBA Playoffs – Grizzlies vs Spurs Game 2 Predictions
There’s no way the San Antonio Spurs can hold Zach Randolph to only two points once again. It’s also hard to imagine the Memphis Grizzlies allowing Tony Parker to run wild and go down after the first quarter behind by 17 points, and losing by 22 points. Things don’t work that way in the playoffs, and two days is a whole lot of time between the opener and game 2.

Stephen Curry & Klay Thompson Break Curses For Golden State Warriors
It’s been 22 years since the Golden State Warriors won a second round playoff game on the road. It’s been 16 years since they last won in San Antonio against the Spurs. But these 2013 Warriors are different. Young, but they don’t play as such, especially not Klay Thompson and Stephen Curry, who were simply too much to handle for the favorites to win the Western Conference.

Miami Heat Deal Chicago Bulls Their Worst Playoff Loss in History
It was clear the Miami Heat would be fired up in Game 2, but no one knew that the Chicago Bulls would stop playing near the end of the second quarter, losing in an embarrassing fashion (115-78), their worst defeat in postseason history, heading back to Chicago in a 1-1 tied series, as LeBron James didn’t even need to score in the second half.

NBA Playoffs – Warriors vs Spurs Game 2 Predictions
The first game in the Western conference semifinals series between the Golden State Warriors and the San Antonio Spurs provided us with two overtimes, an amazing performance from Stephen Curry and an even better finish from Manu Ginobili. Chances are we’re in for a letdown in terms of quality in game 2, but not by much.

NBA Playoffs – Bulls vs Heat Game 2 Predictions
While there is a chance that the Chicago Bulls might have found the recipe to do what seemed impossible until a few days ago – beat the current Miami Heat team in a seven game series, there’s also the option of them awaking a slumbering dragon that didn’t win so many games during the second half of the season on sheer luck alone, and has responded quite well to being behind in a series over the last couple of seasons.

NBA Playoffs – Grizzlies vs Thunder Game 2 Predictions
The Oklahoma City Thunder don’t have their starting point guard or any kind of offensive system, but they do have Kevin Durant playing his best basketball. The Memphis Grizzlies are quite methodical on both ends of the floor, but lack that superstar who can take the game on his shoulders in the final minutes. Will it cost them a second consecutive time?

NBA Playoffs – Pacers vs Knicks Game 2 Predictions
The New York Knicks are in trouble, and not just because of their game 1 loss at home curse. They’re in trouble because the Indiana Pacers have found out how to make Carmelo Anthony look pretty bad for an entire game, through their own brand of stifling defense and going for the teeth offense, and they don’t have a backup plan to counter it.

Celtics vs Knicks – Game 2 Predictions
If the Boston Celtics are going to make this series turn into a different direction than the one it’s heading in now, they’re going to need their entire team, from top to bottom, starters and bench, to show up for Game 2, with the New York Knicks knowing they played far from their best and still got away with a not too difficult win.
