    Minnesota and Miami

    Minnesota because I don't think anyone in the west can handle the kg, cassell and spreewell combo. It depends if all 3 players stay healthy and don't leave the team.

    The Miami heat because they have the most dominant force in the NBA and can overcome any opponent in the East as of right now.

    It's a little early to be making predictions though isn't it?

    It's very early to make predictions, alot of things can happen (trades, injuries). But at this point I'm gonna say

    The Spurs - Best player in the league in TD, nice addition in Barry, and not to many player offseason losses, and no Lakers to battle.

    In the East. Indiana - I think once the injury bug lets up on them they'll grind out a top 3 finish in the East, and battle out a lot of game 7 series in the Eastern Conference playoffs to reach the finals.

    Just my views.

    I cant really decide so ill do conference finals...

    West
    T-Wolves vs. Spurs

    T-Wolves because K-G is a beast and he has a team that can help him win.

    Spurs because they are unselfish in playing(usually) Duncan is great and Ginobili helps


    East
    Pistons vs Heat

    Pistons because of the wallace duo. They have one of the best defenses.

    Heat because Shaq + Wade = AWE

    I think pistons/heat will be great matchup

    hmmm well i say Timberwolves and Pistons......and the reasons have been posted.

    But wad im more interested in are the dark horses, like the jazz, sonics, memphis, dallas, knicks, and lets not forget the kings(perenial championship material but always falling short) The east is very predictable as the best teams are so far ahead of the rest.
    again remember how pple said this was houston's year and now everyone is writing them off? however, i feel in the next 4 years , houston may become a force to be reckoned with

    The Spurs because they are the best team in basketball and they have talent at all positions. They will dominate with Shaq, Manu, and Parker.

    The Spurs will play the Pistons led by Big Ben Wallace and Chauncy Billups. The Spurs will win this year though and dominate the Pistons.

    That is what I think will happend.
