predictions
ok tom and shasher, with this new bynum development, what's it gonna be? i've already decided who i think it will be, but i'm predicting YOUR picks first.
yea i wanted to go with the celtics too. i think they are a better team than cleveland. but i've re-watched that game where lebron owned them and i just cant do it. the problem is, i think, that the Cs best scorer unfortunately has to match up with lebron, whom he cannot stop, score on, or get a rebound from. sucks to be paul pierce on a night like that.
but the Cs do seem to be a better all around team so i guess it's not going to be too surprising if they pull it off. ray allen hasn't played this well in his entire life and kendrick perkins is a gift from the gods. i think it will be exciting, regardless.
and ur right, the spurs are sleepers this year. i think they have gone under the radar since manu has been hurt. i heard he may be getting better though...heh
I was laughing at pop jsut giving everyone (Duncan, parker, manu, finkley) the night off against Denver. First Shaq, then all the good spurs, lol. I don't remember days off in the old days:D
I wanted to say though, after looking at even more injury headlines today, "damn, pistons might have a good chance after all. with the star players going down with long-term inuries."
Redd, Brand, are both out for the season now. And tons have other nagging or moderate injuries.
I will take lakers over cleveland. I might consider spurs, but i think you guys are forgetting about the refs. The League wants the lakers to win.
However, cleveland could lose in an earlier round, so boston has a really good chance.
Also, don't forget about Houston. I really think they are playing their best ball of the season right now, and they do have the best center in the league.
I didn't forget about refs, i'm just not one of the ones to give much credence to that stuff:D
Ben Wallace is questionable for the playoffs(i think). I believe the Cavs need him to beat celtics.
I always feel like houston is a sleeper. They just have such horrible luck with injuries. Good thing they are so deep. Houston winning would be fun, no one expects that right now, but, hey, it could happen

i wasn't trying to leave anyone out, it's just that i'm pretty sure you two are the only ones that read this thing anymore
i'm going spurs over cavs
Yup, i mean, when you really consider everything, the Pistons cannot be beat in a seven game series¡ (<--punctuation denoting sarcasm)
I am not sure when bynum will be back. But if he is in stride, i'll take
Lakers over Celtics.
If not, ill say
Celtics over Lakers.
Pistons rule for Liiiiiiiiffeeaahhhhh!!
I still like the spurs, and love how no one talks about them. Perfect position to kick every ones ass.
I don't know, seems like Kobe has solved the Bynum problem by scoring assloads of points.
