ot: playoffs 

Post#1 » by B Calrissian » Wed Apr 16, 2008 12:30 am

Out of all the teams that are set to be in the playoffs who do you want to win it all?

Out of the playoff teams what team would you most like to see be eliminated in the first round?


I hope the Pistons win. They play as a team and play defense. Plus Foye/Brewer remind me of Billups/Prince.
The 76ers are my wildcard team to win it all.

The Mavs probably top my list of teams I would like to see out of the playoffs early. I didn't like them last season either. Then they gave up a lot to get Kidd.. I still think that was a bad trade.

Teams I'd like to see lose early: Washington, Dallas, Denver, and Cleveland

Teams I'd like to see win it all: Boston, Detroit, Phoenix, and Utah

The rest I don't care one way or the other about.

I just want to see Celtics and Lakers in the Finals.

Oh, and for San Antonio to get swept in the first round.

Boston to win it all.

I guess I'll delight in Denver's demise... I still hold a grudge from back in 2004, I guess. Never liked Melo, Kenyon Martin or George Karl. Love AI, but that's not enough for me not to enjoy their definite 1st round ouster. Utah too... although I'd love to see Kirilenko in the Woofie uni next year. How good would AK look as an open-floor 4 man next to Jefferson?

To win it all Boston in the East and Phoenix in the West

To Lose LAL in West and Cavs in East

A Phoenix sweep of the Lakers would be sooooooo sweeeeeeeeeeeet! But they won't get matched up in the 1st rd

You want San Antonio vs. Detroit again? I've had enough of that for this decade.

I want to see the wizards win it all because then I'll feel like anybody can win it, including the Wolves.

Utah, New Orleans, Washington, Philly, Toronto, Atlanta, and maybe Orlando.

Out of the playoff teams what team would you most like to see be eliminated in the first round?
Detroit-still think Flip is over-rated and this would help prove it.
Boston-I like KG, but generally dislike Boston fans and really my quality of life doesn't change whether or not KG gets a title.
Lakers

Phoenix over Lakers in the West finals. I hate the Lakers, want em out in the first round but Denver, Houston and Utah i dont think can beat em. I still like PHX

Boston over Detroit in the east. Flip Saunders can NOT coach a team to the Finals. It hasnt happened. It wont happen. I like the guy, but his system just doesnt work.

I also somewhat secretly and selfishly want the Spurs and C's to meet so we can see Duncan and Garnett finally have it out. Give Garnett his just due dammit.
