The People’s Playoff Book It: TCO – Day 2

Playoff time! The Basketball Jones is giving away a pair of Adidas basketball shoes to the person who can put together the longest streak of picks during the postseason. If you’d like to give it a shot, email us. Once a wrong pick is made, we’ll email the next contestant. The top dog stands at 2. TCO has got 1:

Cleveland [+5] over WASHINGTON (home team in CAPS)

“LeBron James is overrated.” “Soulja Boy is overrated.” The Washington Wizards are more and more becoming like Soulja boy. Played out. Washington has always been an entertaining team, and had an excellent stretch, but now they simply seem lacking. This pick pains me as I love the characters on the Wizards and am neither a LeBron nor a Cavaliers fan, but alas, ’tis must be picked. The best question is, what next for Washington? Do they resign ‘Twan and Agent 0? Do they entertain offers or Gil? Does Gil end up a Clipper? Also, I would have picked Orlando, but I must not tempt the curse of picking against the Raps on a site run by two Raps fans.

    Gil is out, and we’re winning by 29?

    I love DC fans. They’re chanting the word “Overrated” as Lebron is shooting his free throws.

    The Toronto crowd had a solid “Superman sucks” chant going with Dwight at the line.
