First of all, there is an error. You have the Suns twice. Nugs play the jazz.

Nuggets-Jazz. kind of a bittersweet matchup. Would have liked to see both teams go to the 2nd round or even further.

Question should be which series outside of the one your team is in...

In the East, I'll go with Hawks/Bucks, just because I think Milwaukee has something left in the tank.

In the West, give me OKC/LA, because any of those series could go either way, but what's better than an 8 upsetting a 1?

Lakers series for obvious reason....then Dall/SA, seating shouldn't matter for these 2 teams, doesn't really indicate how competitive the series will be.

If Bogut were healthy.

I'm looking forward to Durant outplaying Kobe in a 7 game series personally. Time to pass the crown
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.

yep

On that basis I'll go with Mavs/Spurs.

Manu is flat out balling right now and even though I like Dirk it's always fun to watch Cuban have a meltdown. And he will at least once.

Should be a tight series.

After the Jazz/Nugs, I'm torn between the Lakers/Thunder and Suns/Blazers series. Portland has played the Suns pretty well even without Roy, although the Suns appear to be an unstoppable juggernaut at the moment. The last WC series (Mavs/Spurs) is also going to be interesting.

Not that interested in any of the East matchups, other than the Heat/Celtics. Would be more interested in the Bucks/Hawks if Bogut were around.

If both teams were healthy, I could have seen Jazz/Nugs as a possible WCF matchup, so that will be a great series to see. Same thing goes for SA/Dallas.
