Quick question who would you rather in second round Boston or Chicago?

Clearly the Bulls even though I think the Wiz can hang with the Celtics and win the series.

Also, does anyone else think the West just has less interesting of playoff matchups than the East?

The only interesting game was utah - lac. Meanwhile all east games were very entertaining.

Yeah because Mahinmi & Nicholson are so much better :roll:

I should have known that someone brings Nicholson ;)
But Al is old and soft they will stick with him few another years which is great :)

I would want the Bulls in a way...but honestly the Celtics are not that deep and dyamic offensively once you get past IT. Butler and Wade could be a problem if Wade could summon "young wade" a few games in a series.

As You mentioned Nene... he looks more healthy this year than all past seasons. I didn't checked how many games he missed if any this year. But if only I watched rockets games he was available...
For team like Houston he is great with decent contact.

The Rockets and Nene look great. I hope the OKC series gets better, but I doubt it. The Rockets and Spurs should be a terrific series.

And Mahinmi is the exact same age as Horford and is made of peanut brittle so how much better off are we that we didn't get Horford again?

We matchup better against the Bulls than the Celts do. The Bulls don't scare me unless Portis is going to average 19 & 9 every game. :lol:

Wade is done, toast, finished, however you want to put it. It's really just Butler and spare parts. Our backcourt would slice up their perimeter defense quite easily... much like Thomas did last night.
