Who is your favorite team to win it?


I'm going with my Phoenix Suns. I bought the NBA package in the States and have missed very few games.

I think they will have a hard time going through San Antonio and Dallas but I think they can do it this year.

The Suns might have a difficult time with the Lakers in the first round. Even they win in seven games, they won't have fresh legs to compete against the Spurs, IMO. I would predict the Spurs and Heat (or possibly Detroit) to be in the finals. I love the Heat but the Spurs probably will win it all.

Mavs and Suns have to be the favorites. If healthy, the Heat might be the best in the NBA, though.

Still, GO CAVS!

I am rooting for the west, any of those teams deserve it for being such a strong and entertaining division.

The east, bah..

If the east wins I will cry laughing. That would be the largest let down. There are three teams from the west that are hands down better than anything in the east. Phoenix, San Antonio and Dallas. I would say Houston and the Jazz are probably better than the best of the east too.

Phoenix isn't that good. Don't believe me? Watch the Suns-Lakers series in the first round. I would predict the Lakers to win at least two games against the Suns.

You can't count out the East that easily either. Detroit got better during the season with the addition of Chris Webber. Miami struggled all season long because of injuries but now Shaq is healthy and D. Wade will play. Don't forget how the Pistons and Heat won championships in the last five years. Even when the Spurs beat the Pistons a couple years ago, they did it in seven games on their home court. In theory, Miami "should" win the title since they have so many all-stars; Gary Payton, Jay Williams, Shaq, D. Wade, Eddie Jones, and Antoine Walker.

How can you even compare last years first round against the lakers to this one?

Amare...

That man will go off. I think the Lakers will win one maybe off of Kobe having a tremendous game. Possibly two... I'm willing to say 3 to 1 in favor of the Suns.

Detroit of course.

Chauncey gets the MVP.

All is right with the world.

Ayup.

Also itching to see The Raptors/Nets series. Man, if I were back home I'd sell a kidney (maybe two) to be at one of those games.
