Could an eastern conference playoff team.... 

Post#1 » by Texas Longhorns » Tue Apr 22, 2008 12:52 am

BESIDES THE CELTICS OR PISTONS, beat a Western conference playoff team in a 7 game series?

The magics probably can.. Hedo and Rashard are matchup nightmares, even for teams out west..

The Magic could beat any number of the West teams.

I think the Magic could beat the Rockets and Nuggets... But other than that, no. The Cavs couldnt beat anyone out West... And neither could any other Eastern Conference playoff team. (Outside Det. and Boston)

^Not in a 7 game series. Duncan will dominate Orlando. And the Suns have nightmare matchups all over the court for Orlando. The only teams I could see the Magic beating in a 7 game series in the west are Denver and Houston, the others are just too good.

With Yao - Not a chance

Without Yao - It would be a good series, but I think the Magic would take it.

Yeah It was a homer pick by me (I let you know with that smiley) without Yao. It would be a good series with Yao also. Yao vs. Dwight would remind us of that finals match up between Hakeem and Shaq.

Magic CAN beat:

New Orleans
Dallas
Houston
Denver
Lakers

We have beaten them in the regular season and can matchup well

San Antonio, Phoenix, Utah are too tough

I humble your opinion, but you guys cannot beat the Lakers, Hornets, or Dallas in a 7 game series. The regular season is nothing, I know one thing though, the Rockets have been 1-1 against Orlando. It's not like you dominated us, but I think you guys can beat us without Yao in a 7 game series.

Can't beat the lakers.. They matchup extremely well with the Magics..

Probably can beat the Hornets and Mavs..

Well yeah im not saying we would beat them...But i believe it is at least possible to beat those teams that i listed

San Antonio, Phoenix, and Utah would completely overmatch us though

And if LeBron plays any team in the west, they will get swept.
