by the way the Celtics are playing right now, it looks like it's getting dimmer noise. especially if Shaq is limping. but i know when playoffs starts things gets different....

Like the way the current standings look. NYK-MIA and OKC-DEN look like great match-ups.

Yeah I also like the playoff match-ups. Boston/Philly should be a great series also. It's crazy how Philly started the season 3-13 and now they are 41-39.

Denver is my sleeper going into the playoffs. I love watching this team play and they are deep at every position. Whether the Nuggets play either Oklahoma City or Dallas, it should be a great series to watch.

Lets go Blazers, hopefully they play Dallas and not OKC.

You got your wish. I actually have the Blazers upsetting Dallas. Nobody want to play Portland in the playoffs. Gerald Wallace and LaMarcus Aldridge are going to have to be huge for the Blazers if they want to advance into the second round. I find it funny that it seems like everybody wants to play Dallas in the playoffs even though they are the #3 seed lol. If Dallas had Caron Butler healthy, this would be a completely different team.


Its Playoff Time!!!!!!!!!!!

Here are my playoff predictions for the first round

Eastern Conference

#1 Bulls Vs. #8 Pacers= Bulls in 5
#2 Heat Vs. #7 76ers= Heat in 5
#3 Boston Vs. #6 Knicks = Celtics in 7 (Knicks are hot and the Celtics are not. If the Knicks escape the first round I wouldn't be completely shocked.)
#4 Magic Vs. #5 Hawks = Magic in 6

Western Conference

#1 Spurs Vs. #8 Grizzles = Spurs in 6
#2 Lakers Vs. #7 Hornets = Lakers in 4
#3 Dallas Vs. #6 Blazers = Blazers in 6
#4 Thunder Vs. #5 Nuggets = Thunder in 7

Time for the Bulls run to begin on Saturday
