I will go out on a limb and predict a Hawks vs Bobcats second round.
Bobcats match up really well against the Magic. Magic won twice in November with a different Bobcats team. Recently, Magic won an overtime game on the road and lost at home to the Bobcats - both with significant Bobcats players out with injury. B
obcats big guys depth- Chandler/Diop/Ratcliff/Nazr/Thomas/Diaw allows them to put Howard on the line whenever they want. Bobcats are superior in the 3 small positions. However, they are not a good team on the road. Lets hope Brown and Jordan can inspire them to a series win.
p.s. I predicted 54 wins this season. (Does this mean Bobcats will come out 1 game short?)

You think Raymond Felton is better then Jameer Nelson? Even if Howard is stopped Magic have guys like Carter, Nelson, and Lewis who can all step up.

^Dont be offended. Hes a Hawks fan. We are all crazy.
Is it to much to ask for a team that plays hard and cares? Seems so.

Re: Prediction: Hawks vs Bobcats in 2nd round
i don't think so, but i do think it is a bigger possibility that most people think.
the key is really Larry Brown and Tyson Chandler.
i really wish Orlando got Miami, because i think Wade and Jermaine could have easily upset the Magic, but of the 4 bottoms teams, the Cats have the second best chance to upset the Magic.
as insane as Larry Brown is, he is a genius when it comes to game planning. he did it against prime Shaq and Kobe.
Okafor is better than Chandler, but Chandler is generally alot better at guarding at Dwight than Okafor, the past few years.
i think if Larry Brown does the same thing to Dwight that the Pistons did to Shaq and go single coverage and not care if Dwight goes 40pts but heavily defend the 3pt, they could be effective. Felton is alot better than Nelson, Felton can stay infront of Nelson, and their is no way that Nelson can stay infront of Felton. Nelson is pretty much a product of Dwight's open 3s. so hopefully Felton can cause the defense to get out of position and Jackson can turn into Mr.Big Shot.
