NBA Playoffs Confidence Picks: 1st Round

Well I'll try something different, it may not work but oh well....... I am using the Mike and Mike format, when picking the confidence number. This format is simple: I'll use 3 categories (Overall Team, Team's Best Two-Man Tandem and the Coach) and then I'll rank those categories by using the numbers 1-8 (1 being the most confident and 8 being the least confident). Of those 3 categories, I'll combine the total and get the confidence number. Remember, the lower the number wins for each game.

Best 2-Men:
1. Heat
2. Lakers
3. Spurs
4. Thunder
5. Grizzlies
6. Celtics
7. Clippers
8. Knicks
9. Hawks
10. Pacers
11. Mavs
12. Bulls
13. Jazz
14. Sixers
15. Magic
16. Nuggets


Overall Team:
1. Heat
2. Thunder
3. Spurs
4. Bulls
5. Celtics
6. Grizzlies
7. Pacers
8. Lakers
9. Knicks
10. Nuggets
11. Hawks
12. Mavs
13. Clippers
14. Sixers
15. Jazz
16. Magic
