    We are 16-4 against East teams and we have won more games than the Bucks vs teams with winning records. If we played the Hawks, Cavs, Bulls, and Knicks 4 times each, I'd bet we'd better than the Bucks. Word. Discuss. I might've started a thread like this before but I couldn't find it.

    I think Toronto and Milwaukee are better overall. Say they met in the finals, I think it would be a 6 or 7 game series.

    Breaking News, Kingspeed heading a group of Hollywood actors to buy the Blazers and move them to Pittsburgh.

    We would be golden if we could play Charlotte or the Pistons in Round 1.

    Would’ve been more believable had you said, “move them to Portland (Maine)”

    I own all 52 cards of a deck but it doesn't make me a master poker player. Or imply that my cards are clean and free of damage. Just sayin. ;)

    Wouldn't it be New York. A third New York Team....would need to play in a different borough. Manhattan and Brooklyn are taken. Bronx? Staten Island? Queens?

    And if we were in the East, we would play those teams half as much. We've beaten all the Top teams in the East and we would feast on crappy teams at the bottom.
