Would we beat the Wizards in the first round?

Although I dont see them playing Gil in the playoffs, he has openly stated his intent to opt out of his contract, that alone would couse me to believe he wont play.

Fixed. He hasn't said he wants to leave, just that he wants to get a guaranteed long-term deal.

The Wizards don't scare me. I don't think it would take more than five or six games. The only teams that worry me are Boston and Detroit because of their talent level and team chemistry, Toronto because of matchup problems, and Cleveland because of the Lebron factor. The rest we should handle fairly easily imo.

There is 3 teams that scare me now.

Philadelphia - They seem to gotten their act together and have so many players on the team who can score the basketball. They also play some defense too.

Washington - Only way I see them beating us of course is them getting Arenas back. Which I'm convinced he will be since we have a Month and a half left til the playoffs come, and he is practicing. Etan Thomas too, who has been the best defender on Dwight Howard I've seen, he might be back(But I doubt it).

Atlanta - They have our number, and if anybody thinks we are going to beat them in 5 or 4 games it's not happening. I would expect this series to be a dog fight.

I don't think we should underestimate anyone in the playoffs, but with that being said, the wiz, hawks, and 76rs are probably the three teams i'd rather play.

I'm actually all for Toronto tanking to 6th.

If anything, watching Dwight and Bosh go at it would be a lot more entertaining than watching LeBron maul us and average 40ppg in the series.
