Rather than let this thread die, I decided to post a Western bracket for Rose. If we are getting interest I will keep this tourney alive unless or until Rose decides to get back into it. Enjoy.
1. Dwight Hoard v. Andre Biedrins
2. Dirk Nowitski v. Jose Calderon
3. Steve Nash v. Rashard Lewis
4. Tracy McGrady v. Al Horford
5. Carmelo Anthony v. Lamar Odom
6. Shawn Marion v. Richard Jefferson
7. Andre Iguolada v. Al Jefferson
8. Rip Hamilton v. Emeka Okafor

Dwight Hoard
Dirk Nowitski
Steve Nash
Al Horford(he is easy to play with, and his skills are so fundamentally sound that other people can fit in more easily.)
Sean Marion
Carmelo Anthony
Al Jefferson
Emeka Okafor( a much younger player who could anchor your defense for years.)

Must be true, if it's a rumor you read on Hoopshype.

1. Dwight Howard v. Andre Biedrins
2. Dirk Nowitski v. Jose Calderon
3. Steve Nash v. Rashard Lewis
4. Tracy McGrady v. Al Horford; seriously tempted to take Horford since TMac seems to hit his peak only when he has no talent around him but that win streak in Houston shows how much he still can do
5. Carmelo Anthony v. Lamar Odom
6. Shawn Marion v. Richard Jefferson
7. Andre Iguolada v. Al Jefferson; Iggy is leading a not terribly talented Philly team to a .500 record and playoff birth. Jefferson isn't there yet.
8. Rip Hamilton v. Emeka Okafor ; Wanted to give it to Rip but quality defensive big men are just too valuable.

Carmelo Anthony 6-0
Shawn Marion 6-0

Since Rose isn't weighing in, I will go ahead and continue to post brackets; btw, please give some reasoning, this is pretty boring otherwise (thanks a-rod for being the only one to do so)
