eastern conference play-offs look horrendously boring.
as gay as the suns are, i think im rootin for them over the spurs this time around. every year the spurs dont seem like theyre gonna be a big threat, and every damn year they step it up 10 notches in the play-offs. imagine if they lose in the first round this year, that would be CRAZY.

magic vs raptors and cavs vs wizards will be good
boston's game doesnt excite me at all.. looking forward to the lakers vs nuggets

they ended the season with a better record than utah. utah only got 4th seed because division champions are guaranteed to at least get the 4th seed for match-up purposes.

I have the the Lakers, Jazz, Spurs, and Hornets all advancing in the West. But I have the Lakers losing in the second round to the Jazz and SA advancing over the Hornets. Jazz vs Spurs for the west, Spurs in 7. Spurs vs Pistons in the Finals.

naw. lol. Honestly, the Jazz are the scariest team in the West to me. I dont THINK they are the best....but they are scary. Nobody is expecting shit from them (except Sir Charles lol). Theyre completely overlooked, but they are good. You guys have some defensive issues, and I think a great point guard would expose them. I dont see a Lakers/ Celtics finals this year...but next year it wouldnt surprise me.

The Jazz are good, no doubt, but they aren't on the level of a team like the Lakers. You say we have defensive issues, but Utah is still no better than us defensively. ESPECIALLY in the post, where we like to do most of our damage.

they arent great either. but the opposing teams point guard consistently getting into the paint sounds more deadly. And what do you mean "arent on the level of a team like the Lakers"? lol. Theres 3 games seperating the top 6 teams. I would say they are all pretty much on the same level right now.

You have to understand NIK's mind. The Lakers, regardless of their seeding...or if they even make the playoffs...are always on a higher level than everyone else. The last few years when they didn't make it out of the first round or weren't making the playoffs he always had these far out ideas that they were a few plays away from winning it all. But please, don't question his opinions...they seem to be the only ones that matter.

Utah doesn't match well with us AT ALL .. they're very weak when it comes to inside D and their biggest pb is to defend the SG position ... Deron is an excellent PG but is more physical than fast .. Fish will have less pb against Williams than against Paul or Parker ..

exactly. deron is the one of the only elite pgs in the league who fish might actually be able to contain.

LOL@this groupie STILL on my nuts. 99% of people who watch basketball will agree that the Lakers are way above the Jazz right now, especially as far as chances to take it all the way go. It's not my fault my nuts are blinding you from thinking logically. Now shoe.
