NBA Playoffs: Who Ya' Pickin'


I think the title will remain in the East.

The wildcard factors for Detroit, if they win, will be the Hamilton, R. Wallace, Prince combination. If its Miami, the twin terror combination, Shaq and Mourning on the court at the same time, will be the wildcard factor. Good move by Miami to go to that in game two with Detroit.

Regards.
 



Dr. Mac, I like Miami too, but I don't know if Shaq is going to make it the rest of the way, and I don't think Mourning, Michael Doleac, and Christian Laettner are enough to beat San Antonio, if they manage to get past Detroit.

Shaq really looks like he's in pain out there, he can barely jump, and he's lumbering up the court when he runs. Looks like he's going to konk out very soon. Those blood clots are no joke.

How are your boys doing?

NICE

I like the duo of Zo and Shaq on the court at the same time as well, but I wouldn't continue to disregard San Antonio. I said earlier that I would like to see the boys from South Beach take home a title. That would mean a different champion for the last four years. BUT, if Shaq is not 80%, Zo won't be able to do it alone, and if Wade has another game like he had in Game 1, that simply won't get it. Those other guys aren't going to bring enough to the table to make up for it. They do have to go to DETROIT, remember?

San Antonio, on the other hand, even if Duncan might be hobbled, his injury isn't enough to keep him off the court. Plus, they got the benefit of the best mid-season trade in the league....Nazr Mohammed! The kid brings the kind of fire to the Spurs that Mourning brings to Miami. Plus, he's gonna score some points. Not to mention as I have before (in my best Charles Barkley impression....) GIIINOOOOOOOBBBBBBLLLLLLLLI!!! Parker, Horry (5 ring-holdin' Horry,) Barry, Bowen, and not to mention those others who can come off the bench.

I know that all the attention is in the east, but neither the Pistons or the Heat are a "sure in." San Antonio may not be the "glamour" boys like the Lakers, but that's part of what makes them the "team" that they are. After all, where are the Lakers these days?
 
Clutch city came back from a 3-0 deficit ten years ago it can be done, Just play 48 minutes instead of 40 plus Joe Johnson will be back now...Suns in Six ask Dallas.

Ravel...what up man??

I can't see Phx getting past SA...Too much Parker, Ginobli and the BIG FUNDAMENTAL...


Plus, with Big Shot Rob, Bruce Bowen and with Brent Barry coming off the bench??

Tell "Brandy" Richardson better luck next year.

SA in 5.
