lol thats not a very bold statement. it would be an extremely huge upset for the bulls to even take the cavs to six games imo and the hornets just have very little depth and i think that any team in the west who are in the playoffs can beat them.

the only team im really worried about in the east is the magic. im pretty confident that the cavs can beat boston especially with the home court advantage and theres no other real competition in the east. magic have given the cavs to huge loses this season but we beat them at home.

the lakers should get to the finals but i think they will have more trouble then the cavs cause there is more legit teams in the west. they will probably have to play a few more games then the cavs.

spurs arent gonna give anyone trouble without manu. im predicting they are out in the first round.

You guys never know what's gonna happen. Like last year when Atlanta took Boston to Game 7.

But I think it's Cleveland or Orlando dominating the East. I don't see Boston doing too well.

And for the West, it will be the Lakers or Nuggets.

idk, the Bulls are officially in the 7th spot, and can drop down to the 5th by the end of the next 3 games, which would REALLY spice things up a bit in the playoff scene

Pssh, the Bulls aren't going anywhere. lol j/k
If Rose & Gordon can get the job done, then they might go far.
Luol Deng needs to get healthy too, he's kind of a good addition to the team.

if they get the 5th seed i guess they might have a chance against atlanta but they dont have a chance against the cavs or magic or celtics. i doubt they would have a chance against atlanta even. they got some talent but they arent really that good.

The Cavs murder the Celtics 107 to 76.
A step closer to home court advantage in the NBA finals. Also they're 39-1 at home, one more game to tie the Celtics record.

I got a funny good feeling it'll be Cavs/Lakers in the NBA Finals... Cavs taking it in 6 :D

as much as i want the cavs to win the finals, i think the lakers are too good. the cavs have a shot and i think it will be a very competitive series but the cavs cant shut down bynum and gasol cause dont have any dominant big guys and kobe is gonna get his points too. if the cavs control the paint then they can win but idk if they can do it. i hope they can but idk...

ALWAYS

I'm pretty sure that the Cavs are hungry enough to come through in the playoffs on the way to the finals.

The major difference in the regular season than the playoffs is that every team plays just to make the postseason where as the passion to win is much lower than playing in the playoffs.

In the playoffs, you're playing to win a championship and the hunger to win is at a 110% always.


Cavs are so ready to win a ring this year, this is LeBron's year and we all know it.

Lol, no. I know they have home-court advantage throughout the playoffs, but I also know that if they get to the Finals, they'll probably face the one team that has won in Cleveland.

I really don't think that Kobe will allow his team to lose to Lebron when (Not if) they meet in the Finals.

No way.... This could only because I hate Cleveland, but they have no team. Its all Lebron. Mo Williams and Delonte West is not strong enough of a backcourt. Illgauskas could die any minute. Wallace is done for the year. Varejo is starting, which means they have no bench now. Depending on health with KG...I might say its the Lakers year.

Although i still have a extremelly small amount of hope the Pistons will get on fire, as soon as the playoffs start. (I'm dreaming, but can't blame a fan)
