Boston vs. Detroit would be a matchup of the two best teams in the league, with star-studded rosters headed by great matchups (Rip vs. Allen, KG vs. 'Sheed).
Cleveland vs. Detroit would be round three of an intense playoff rivalry that's seen pretty much every game come down to the wire.
Boston runs a picture-perfect motion offence, and Detroit's offensive versatility enables them to run well-executed plays and generate open looks. Cleveland has the Big Z, who has a very fluid offensive game... oh, right, and LeBron.
I'll be glued to my seat for game 7 of Celtics/Cavs and glued to my seat for every ECF game.
As for a Cavs/Spurs rematch, I don't think the Cavs will be able to make that happen, but that could be interesting in terms of the Cavs wanting to get revenge and the Spurs playing so beautifully.
I think all six teams left in the playoffs play great basketball and I'm content to watch any matchup within that group. They very well might also be the best six teams in the league (there's a very good case for Jazz over Cavs though so don't shoot me). For sure, Celtics/Pistons/Lakers/Hornets/Spurs are top 5, and even if Cleveland isn't quite up there, no team with LeBron can be counted out so easily.
How could someone not want to watch this?

It would definitely be interesting to see if Detroit can figure out a way to defend Lebron. He completely owned them last season in the playoffs!

But I wouldn't mind at all a rematch between Detroit/Cleveland, I think it'd be a good series, and would continue their rivalry with new faces.
Maybe not generally being good, but for who it would apply to.
Agreed. I would want to see what the Pistons do this time around.
