    We steal game 1, then hold home court.

    Why isn't this poll public so we can ridicule people that pick the Suns?

    I cranked up my "homerism" dial as far as it goes....and went with Suns in 6. Sorry, but without a healthy Roy, this team is not winning a play-off series.

    I have always thought that Roy is a great player on the wrong team! This playoffs may prove that point. I see Andre, LA, Nick, Camby and Rudy pushing some serious tempo. I think Nate is going to see a style of basektball he hates and still be effective. Never know, we may just show a style of basketball the Suns haven't seen from us before and aren't prepared for. I have a strange feeling about this. We also have three good vets to script this new assault and calm the young ones down. We didn't have that last year!

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Portland in 6 games. They're playing well and I'm still working from the assumption that Roy plays at least some of the series effectively.

    I say Suns in 7. I'm looking for a good, hard-fought series, but without a full-strength Roy I just don't see us overcoming the Suns' HCA.

    P.S. Of course, a couple months ago I didn't see us getting 50 wins and the 6th seed...

    Well considering the many unknowns, I am going with my worst case scenario. Suns in 5.

    I'm going with Henry Abbott. Blazers in 7.

    Blazers in 6.
    I'm confident Roy will play about 25 minutes per game which will help us enough to get the W's. Batum is going to step it up big.

    I was referring to the Blazers situation, not the series ending record. My assumption are Roy will not play, and our guards stink it up from the 3 point line.

    Thanks, MIXUM. I feel so much better about the Blazers' chances now.

    Yeah, that would have been good, but at least we still have MIXUM.

    Suns in 6.
