The NBA Playoffs

The NBA playoffs start this weekend. I wonder if there will be any upsets this year. I'm going to tell you about the NBA playoffs and my predictions for this years winner. The first series is the Cleveland Cavaliers against the Detroit Pistons. I have the Cavaliers winning the series 4-1. The next series is the defending champs Boston Celtics who is up against the Philadelphia 76ers for right now. The Celtics havd had their number during the season so i'm going to have the Celtics also winning 4-1. I have the Orlando Magic defeating the Chicago Bulls 4-2. And the Atlanta Hawks defeating the Miami Heat 4-2. Even though I think the Miami Heat will lose in the first round they have had a great season. Going from only 15 wiins last season to 42 so far this year. Congratulations Miami. One of my disappointments this year is the Detroit Pistons who I though were going to be contenders in the East for a title ever since they acquired Allen Iverson. The team has never been the same since acquiring Iverson. The team has a losing record for the first time in 7 years. In the west I have the Los Angeles Lakers defeating the Utah Jazz 4-2. This year was a little bit of a slow year for the Jazz because they were hurt with injuries at the beginning of the season. Next I have the Denver Nuggets defeating the Dallas Mavericks 4-2. The denver team is another surprise because they weren't even predicted to make the playoffs his year and they end being the number 2 seed in the West so far this season. I have Houston defeating New Orleans 4-3. Houston has been amazing this year. Posting up good numbers and another good year in the win column all without Tracy McGrady while he has been injured. Finally rounding out the West I have the Portland Blazers beating the San Antonio Spurs 4-3. This will probably be one of the most watched out of all the series due to the identical record and iudentical skills both teams have, But I think Portland will pull it out.
