Who do we want to play in the 1st round?

I've been thinking about this for awhile. It seems like we are locked into the third seed (hopefully..or maybe not so hopefully since we'll have to play Detroit in the 2nd round...)
Now with that we will either be playing Cleveland, Washington or Toronto in the first round. All three of these teams scare me. Cleveland because of Lebron...Washington has been playing so well without Arenas and I'd think they'll be even better once he comes back...and Toronto has had our number in the past, even though we won our one meeting this year in a close game.
If I had to pick one I guess I'd want to play the Cavs because they only have 1 really good player unlike the other 2 teams, but I don't think our first round matchup will be easy no matter who we play.

All those teams scare me in some sort of way, but I'd rather take down the golden boy and finally rid ourselves of fearing Drew Gooden (should we win the series).

We have had Cleveland's number the last couple of years, so they'd be my #1 and Washington would be #2.

if you take cleveland you have to know hat LBJ is going to take over every game and will get to the line 230 times in the series...if you take Wash you have to worry about more players and the fact that Gil will probably be back, Butler is amazing and they have some good bench pieces...

I don't like playing raptors at all. Although I think we can take anybody in 1st round. I'm hoping for a change of seedings though. If we can bypass Detroit by not playing them in 2nd round. We can actually make a run IMO,

They all scare me with this teams attitude towards defense.

No, they're not. Not unless someone important like Rasheed or Chauncey gets hurt. Not the Pistons. I'd rather not play the Hawks either.

It's not likely that we will play Detroit in the first round, so I'm not worried about that.
Out of the 3 teams I would probably want to face Washington first (even with Arenas), followed by Cleveland then Toronto.
I just think we would have the most success against Washington, we seem to always play them well.

Washington, and by a lot. Their wheels are getting ready to fall off, but they will stay above NJN and Atlanta, so the Wizards is also the most likely opponent.
