I dont think any other series has been set yet, right? The Wiz have a 2 game lead over Philly & Toroton plus they have the tiebreakers. The Wiz still have a chance to get the HCA but I doubt it. Who do you guys think wins this series,why, and how many games? I think it will be exciting to see again

If Butler is healthy then I'll take the Wizards.

The Wizards are the underdogs here but I think the Wizards can really challenge the Cavs.
Butler will be the MVP if they win though. No one on the Cavs can guard him and he's a good defender who has the size to guard Lebron, not to mention he'll tire Lebron on defense.

The first few games back, shaky at best. Yesterday's game against the Sixers he looked just like his old self. Same explosiveness, and he certainly hasn't lost any of his range.

Wizards in 6, LeBron is suffering and the Cavs f*cked themselves at the trade deadline.

I dont understand why people and media keep acting like Gil hanst looked that great until last night. I thought he's been awesome in every game except the Pistons game when our whole team looked like crap. In his 1st game he got 17pts in 20min, in the 2nd game he had 13pts & 8ast in 20min, then he didnt shoot that great against Boston but he made alot of good plays in that game. I think he has looked pretty sharpe

Wizards, it's going to be payback time.

I think this is a 6 or 7 game series minimum. If Arenas plays back to form, then I think the Wizards might get some payback.

Wow no1 taking Lebron? If the series 7 games I take Cleveland. I cant see bron losing game 7 at home.

The Cavs have one scorer outside of Lebron, that scorer being Big-Z. Big-Z however is going to be defended by Brendan Haywood, who has played exceptional defense this year...
It doesn't help much that Daniel Gibsuck is well... Sucking right now...

IMO the most exciting first round series in the East. If Butler is healthy, then I'd likely lean towards them, but one thing you learned last year was to not doubt LeBron.

The entire Cavs team has been terrible lately. I don't give them much chance unless they start playing significantly better than they have.

This can go either way... but I'm gonna go with the Wizards in 6
I like how the Wizards have improved defensively and the chemistry they have developed.
Should be a fun, exciting series

Wizards in five. The Cavs are a lottery team.

LeBron out in the 1st round? Never going to happen.
