The Suns are rolling right now. I'll say Suns in 5.

Suns are on an insane roll. With the exception of Orlando no team is playing better basketball than Phoenix. Portland is a good team, and Roy gets a bit too much credit for the success of the Blazers, so the loss isn't as devastating as people believe. Still, they have little chance w/o Roy. Suns in 5.

Roy came out and warmed up tonight, apparently. It'll be interesting to if he can go on Saturday. I have Phoenix in 6.

If Roy's out then the Suns will definitely be favored, I can see Portland putting up a good fight though. Could go 7.

If Roy and Aldridge can play at a high level, Blazers in 6, if not, Suns in 4-5
Thank you for all the memories BRoy. You were a class act and brought hope to an entire region for 5 years. You will be missed.

I think Suns in 5 if Roy is out. If he is playing, Suns in 7 maybe.

Yep I went with Suns in 5 since there is no word if Roy will play or not.

Blazers in 7.

Miller will make Nash work and Camby/Aldridge can help contain Amare.

Suns in 7, mostly because I think Portland can steal at least a game on the road, which will be big.
