Who do you want to face in the 1st round.....

Don't be ridiculous.

They're Eastern Conference...I'm hoping for them in the Finals.

 

I already posted this in another thread:

Phoenix, San Antonio, L.A., Milwaukee <===path to championship

 

I wanted the Suns in round one until about a week ago. I still think we match up well against them so I'm happy with anyone at this point, but they are playing sooo well right now... I'm just glad it won't be Denver. I think they are the one team we could not beat.

With that said, I now am leaning toward Utah. I mean, its hard for any team to beat another club 6 straight times in one season. I feel the chance of us stealing game one or two against the Jazz is pretty high. Especially if they don't take us seriously without Roy.

An even series going back to Portland is anyones. Plus, I hate the Jazz almost as much as the Lakers and would LOVE to take them out.... and I think the Jazz were last team we've beaten in a playoff series...?

JMK

 

The league would crap it's pants if it had a Portland/Milwaukee championship. It will never, ever happen, even if in some fantasy world were they both went 81-1 in the regular season (each team's single loss coming against one another), one of the teams would somehow be bounced in the conference finals to a bigger market team.

It would be awesome to see though.

 

As far as matchups go, I want to face Utah least. Mainly because with Roy out, we need scoring from Miller and I think Deron is Deron will cause 'Dre the most problems of the three potential PG matchups.

 

Fixed. Bingo! We need Miller to dominate the series and he has the best chance of doing that against Phoenix.

 

The Deron is Deron was intentional, but good looking out either way.

 

Phoenix because they're the only team we have a running shot at to beat without Roy.

 

Suns.

Just as good as Dallas, or even a bit better. But they don't have an elite defender to pester Roy and they're always one bad fall for Nash and his back from being absolutely terrible.
