I think Mavericks can "upset" the Hornets.

They've been sleeping lately.. and well... have been unmotivated all season. But come playoffs, if they hit that gear that they had the last few years, they can make it all the way back to the WCF.

Hornets need to just play their style and not compromise Mavericks.... its probably the one upset round I think.

Suns vs Spurs.... if Spurs steal a game from the Suns.... I think its very very dangerous. Suns need to win home games and steal one early.... if so... Suns in 6.
Spurs have Parker and Ginobili who, can steal a game or 2 by themselves.....

Dallas won't beat the Suns/Spurs if they beat NO.

The Finals will be a re-match between The Spurs and The Pistons.

The Spurs will take it from them again.

There was a finals with the Spurs and Pistons?!!!!
Must have been one of those years when no one watched. I remember something about Eva...not much else.

It must suck for you not having a Finals to watch since your team gets bounced every year.

Not just me. No one watched. I like how ESPN gives us these "ten reasons to watch" bits, then later openly states how the Spurs are so boring and its the worst thing for the league.

That was probably the time where you spent the playoffs crying that your suns had yet another disappointing year.

So, you were watching.

I'm glad you admitted to it.

You're probably a closet Spurs fan.
You should just come out and admit to it.
You'd be happier that way.

Who gives a **** about what's good for the league? Spurs just keep winning.

And yet, the league is as properous and popular as ever, if not more.

The Spurs? Hmmm...isn't that Nash's soccer team? Why do I keep seeing Teri Hatcher when I hear that name?
