    too early to make finals predictions imo....when it comes to picking the champ I like to see how they handled each round in the 1st 3 rounds and also how they are playing at that moment.......

    True true, but who do you see in the finals? The east is easy now that KG is out, LeBron will be in the finals.

    The Lakers have the best chance to come out of the west, followed by Houston. Houston is 3-1 against Denver, 4-1 against Portland (including last nights game), 2-2 against the Spurs, and 3-1 against the Hornets.

    Glad to see the Pistons, Hornets and Spurs are making my predictions look golden. At least all the teams I've projected to win have won so far...though the Spurs...not looking to good right now.

    Is there really a relevance to playing the last 2 games in the Atl/Cle series? It hasn't even been competitive. And if JJ doesn't play in game 3, well, you might as well just hand that game to the Cavs unless Josh Smith goes off for 40.

    Oh, why can't the last 3 be true, because the NBA is a business and 6 and 7 sells.
