Fully agree with your Western picks and the Spurs will prevail if Suns and Spurs matchup.
ROFL for the East
Celtics and Heat? are you kidding me?
If you saw the Heat over the preseason there is no way you can pick this team to make the playoffs
When is Wade gonna be ready to go and be healthy? And when he does come back, how long will it take for him to get another injury?
Dude is really really fragile and the Eastern conference has gotten much better. With him and old washed up Shaq, this team looks like it won't even make the playoffs
Also Shaq apparently just bruised his knee again in a preseason game...expect him to miss 25-30 games at some point this year
They have no 3 point shooters there
They let James Posey, Eddie Jones, Jason Kapono and Antoine Walker go...so who's gonna shoot the 3s?
SMUSH??? LOL!!!
Jason Williams can't stay healthy and his best days are behind him
Miami is a mess right now. Dorrell Wright, Udonis Haslem and Daequan Cook are their only young guys, the rest are old washed up vets like Mourning, Penny Hardaway, etc
The new additions of Ricky Buckets (Ricky Davis) and Mark Blount might keep the team afloat but this team is in a serious mess this year after going 0- 7 in the preseason
Celtics...well they are everyone's favorites but I think they'll make the Second round of the playoffs and thats it
They have 3 superstars who are in their 30s and have logged at least a decade in the league.
2 of them are coming off surgeries...Ray Allen and Paul Pierce
SO lets say this Boston team is gonna play against the Lakers or Heat or Cavaliers or Nuggets....these teams have primetime scorers like Kobe, Wade, Lebron, AI and Melo...who's gonna guard these guys from the Celtics team?
Paul Pierce and Ray Allen aren't exactly known for being good defenders in their primes...so who you gonna put on those scorers? Just the thought of Pierce or Allen guarding either one of those guys makes me cringe cuz they'll take them to school ALL NIGHT
so you need a defensive stopper on the floor...who are you gonna turn to? James Posey is a solid defender but unfortunately he plays the same Shooting Guard/Small Forward positions as Allen and Pierce....so you gonna bench one of those two to let Posey play? Will those former Franchise players do it for the team??
Allen is getting old and he looks a step slower these days...what if he doesn' turn out to be the 20 ppg scorer as advertised?
The Celtics outside of KG don't have an interior presence (not gonna matter much with all the big men ruling the west) so they'll be fine there
The bench is unproven outside of James Posey.
This team has a couple of washed up superstars, and a bunch of players who aren't known for playing defense...and their bench sucks....way too many holes to make noise in the playoffs
Second round of playoffs and thats it.
East finals I think its gonna be Washington vs Chicago

Mavs he'll no I'm sorry if people want to campare Dirk to Bird than go ahead. To me it's almost an insult to the great. And his MVP of the year award, Bull Crap. (Now if he would of went to the Finals and won hitting big shots, the MVP is his)
Boston, Nuggets, Houston, or even Suns is who I'm going for
All do respect to Daniel D the Suns were cheated out b/c of the refs, what could of happend if Nash made it to the Finals.

For all you Dirk haters, you need to shut up. He had a great Regular season, that is what the award is for, if it counts for the playoffs too, then that overrated loser Nash needs to give his back since his teams never got to the finals or did much in the playoffs. Anyways, the Celtics aren't going to be as good as everyone seems to think they are. I think it will be Bulls against Mavs, and I think the Mavs will win in 6.

Wizards. And I know no one else will say this, but check it out, they got the chemistry from a couple of years now. They got some superstars, they got some good new guys, as soon as they get grooving, they're gonna make it baby, yeah let's go Wizards.
