    Dallas will beat Houston, and then beat Phoenix. You heard it here second, folks (since I'm sure KB says it every other sentence, but he doesn't count).

    They will lose to the Spurs, though, in an exciting all-Texas series.

    Meanwhile the Maimi-Detroit series will put me to sleep.

    I haven't even looked to a possible Phoenix series, actually. I refuse to get ahead of myself. Off the top of my head, I think we stand a real good shot against the weakest MVP in league history*. However, Dirk struggles with athleticism (plainly evident in this series), and Marion will be guarding him all the time. Need definite step-ups from Josh Howard.

    * There are no set criteria for league MVP, the only award that doesn't have any. The only way to decide is to model it after the players who have won it before. By naming Nash the MVP, you have put him in the category of (over the past 20 years):

    Kevin Garnett
    Tim Duncan
    Allen Iverson
    Shaquille O'Neal
    Karl Malone
    Michael Jordan
    David Robinson
    Hakeem Olajuwon
    Charles Barkley
    Magic Johnson
    Larry Bird
    Moses Malone
    Julius Erving

    To put him in that collection is preposterous. That's my take on it, at least.

    hey! i think the boston-indiana series has been exiting. I know our comeback has had me on my knees kissing the keyboard seventh game is tomorrow, c'mon celtics (but this matchup sucks because i secretly thought reggie deserves a title and anyone who dosn't are cruel.).

    Peace out and :rock:

    Take that, Bulls fans...for posting up a topic like this so prematurely.
    How is posting a topic about winning game 1 premature? I don't recall saying we would win the NBA Championship or anything. And I did say "even IF we beat Washington" so there was nothing premature about it.

    I could've told you Boston would lose. They had the advantage this game, and in the parallel universe that series has been in, that's a disadvantage.

    What an embarassment. The Houston Rockets just lost by 40 points, and I wouldn't have liked it any other way. We put this cocky, disrespectful team in their place. Sura and Barry couldn't do their three-point signs because they never hit any.

    Embarassing.

    Considering that Nash is the modern day Bob Cousy as far as offense goes, great passer, great shooter, weak defender, it makes sense that he'd win the MVP. Phoenix versus Dallas will be a great series, but Phoenix has more size and they can match the speed and athleticism of Dallas and can outscore them, so I think that's the major factor. No game will be low scoring, and all will be exciting but I think the better team wins this series. Dallas has a heckuva bright future though and I look for them to be a top 3 seed next year.

    In the other matuchups, I look for the Heat, the Pistons and the Spurs to all win 4-1 as they are just so much better than their opponents. The Sonics are an interesting team, but Duncan is looking healthy and he he's only going to get better.

    Take care all.
