What y'all predicting for the playoffs? I'm thinking it's gonna be a Heat/Bulls and Mavs/Thunder finals leading up to a Bulls/Thunder series with Chicago winning. My Pops thinks it's gonna end with a Heat/Thunder finals with the Thunder coming out on top and no he's not a fan of any of these teams; he's a die hard Celts/Spurs fan.

I can see a Thunder/Heat finals. I don't see how the Bulls are going to get past the Heat in the east. Both teams are practically the same with the Bulls having added Rip and Miami Shane Battier which both are not the same players of 3 years ago. While Rip help the bulls still lack a second scoring option.

The Thunder match up very well with the Heat and it would be a very entertaining finals.

Chris Paul, Ginobili, Aldridge, Love and Bynum for the west for me since I know KD's a lock anyway. I love Westbrook but he's been playing so inconsistently this season. I'd love if it Gerald Wallace, Wesley Matthews or James Harden were reserves though. Big DWade fan but I didn't vote for any locks on the East either except for Rose and Rondo; the others were Pierce, Josh Smith and Joakim Noah. I wasn't really sure which East center I should vote for since Dwight's a surefire lock, didn't vote for LeBron either naturally. I'm just glad Yao Ming is finally gone so some other center can start for the West.

Absolutely, the schedule is a killer for the "old" men. And they miss Chandler so badly.

Yeah this years schedule benefits young teams like Oklahoma City and Chicago, Dallas and Boston don't have a chance this year..

Same goes for the Lakers with "old" Kobe.

Good thing the Thunder and Blazers are my other teams aside from the Celtics. Kobe playing with that wrist injury is just damn, lots of the good old players have some pretty painful injuries to play through. Pinkie must be such a pain in the ass, I'm really feeling for Manu; I was hoping for one more good season for the Spurs, I respect that team a lot.

Oh yeah, that's so true. Pinkie is a real pain in the ass and the wrist injury must be pretty painful, too. You should be fine with the Thunder and Blazers. I'm not sure (yet) about the Celtics. Fortunately the Atlantic Division is not that strong.

What's up with Paul Pierce this year? he's barely averaging 14 points a game. Tim Duncan too !

I guess they finally lost a step or two, but Kobe keeps on impressing me with back-to-back 40 point performances with that wrist.
