Considering O-Town has the best road record in the league, yes.

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

San Antonio, Phoenix, Utah are too tough

Dallas I could see you guys beating because playing Lewis on Dirk would mess up Dirk's game.

But with the Hornets, you guys have no one to defend Chris Paul and they match up very well against you guys. David West is quick enough to stay with Lewis on defense, and could easily beat Lewis in the post. Peja and Turk cancel each other out, and same with the shooting guard situation for both teams. Chandler could play solid defense on Howard, but I would bet on the Hornets to win that matchup.

If we're talking about the eventual WC champion, no other EC team besides the Celtics or Pistons could even push a series to 7 games.

Even though the west is close there are a few teams, that I know will not make it to the finals. Rockets, Nuggets, and Dallas. Dallas could probably beat any eastern team, but Orlando and the Cavs would have a shot against the other two teams.

I'd give the Cavs a good chance at Houston without Yao, a decent chance against Dallas and a chance against the Lakers.

The Cavs just seem to play well against the Lakers.

Orlando could probably hold its own with some of those teams.

None of Denver, Dallas, and Houston are particularly impressive. They could all lose to multiple East teams.

Is it time to put an asterisk next to LeBron's oft-mentioned "taking his team to the finals"? Or is that some serious haterade?
