Playoff Predictions

East
Round 1:
1) BOS vs. 8) ATL -- Celts sweep in 4. Easy.
2) DET vs. 7) PHI -- Pistons in 5. Nice year for Philly, but DET is way too much.
3) ORL vs. 6) TOR -- ORL in 7. Bosh takes Raps to the brink, but not quite to the second round
4) CLE vs. 5) WAS -- Wiz in 7. Can't go against the former home town. If DeShawn has to close-line Lebron in Raja Bell fashion to get it done so be it.

Round 2:
Celtics over the Wizards in 6.
Detroit over ORL in 5.

East Finals:
Celts over Pistons in the toughest, best played 7 we've seen in a long time in the East.

West
Round 1:
1) LA vs. 8) DEN - Lakers in 6.
2) NO vs. DAL -- Experience matters not. Hornets in 7.
3) SA vs. 6) PHX -- the re-match everyone wants to see and the reason for the Shaq trade. Suns in 7. Redemption.
4) UTAH vs. 5) HOU -- Jazz in 5.

Round 2:
UTAH vs. LA -- Jazz in 6.
NO vs. PHX -- Suns in 7. Gosh, I hope this series happens. Nash and Paul on the same court for 7 games would be awesome.

West Finals:
Jazz vs. Suns -- Suns in 7.

NBA Finals
Celts vs. Suns -- Suns somehow do it in 7. Amare reprises his awesome playoffs from the pre-injury days and is MVP.

  • Pretty much agree, though I could easily see it being San Antonio vs Dallas in the Conf Finals.

    Good picks.

    Oh, yeah, and the C's wins in my world.
