I have somewhat of a first-round dilemma. Philly is my squad, has been since the days of Dr. J, Moses Malone n 'em. While I'd love to see them go far in the playoffs, I've been kinda partial to the Heat this season. So, part of me was glad the Sixers made a great showing yesterday while the other part of me was relieved the Heat pulled it out.
Knicks/Boston- I want the Knicks to pull it out.
Lakers/Hornets- It'll take the return of the Lord for it to happen, but I'd love to see the Hornets win.
Dallas/Portland- I've been a fan of both Dirk and J Kidd forever. I'd like to see them win one before Kidd crumbles up and turns to dust.
Orlando/Atlanta- I want the Magic to play like they're an elite team for a change.
Chicago/Indiana- Even if I don't want the Bulls to win it all, I've NEVER liked Indiana.
San Antonio/Memphis- As much as I love the great team ball that the Spurs play, I'd love to see Memphis do something special.
OKC/Denver- It's a toss-up for me. I love Durant, and I love how Westbrook has asserted himself. At the same time, I like the way the new-look Nuggets are balling.
I want the Heat to come out of the East. I DON'T want the Lakers to represent the West. Aside from them, I don't care who wins the West.
