If people would get over themselves and realize the NBA is really good this year, they'd realize this is the most exciting playoffs in probably 15 years. It's completely wide open.

I would've posted something on here, but everybody trashes on it if I do bring it up....
the nba is very entertaining this year, and the Magic are playing well which makes me happy...I think they will give Detroit everything they can handle

Detriot better worry about handling Philly first before they set there sights on the Magic.

I think the Western Conference side of the playoffs will be exciting to watch. IMO its anybody that can win the western conference finals. That is a pretty deep West this season.

Rocketfan, why is that your name? You don't seem to be a Houston Rocket fan, do you worship Roger Clemens or something?

yeah...the pistons will win the series...even the 76ers players were shocked they won that game....what it did show is that Detroit is not nearly as good as people say and are beatable..which, as a Magic fan, has given me some confidence for the next round....

I just wish my suns would be able to get over the hump and beat the freakin spurs...they played absolutely awful last night, I think it will really take something special for them to be able to come back and win the series.
PS
Chris Paul was amazing last night.

I'll take the Spurs all the way also. They know how to get it done in the playoffs.

I hope to God the Hornets don't make it far.
I'm not bitter though.

I honestly believe this might be Orlando's year to run the east. We had Boston's number this year.

shhhh...don't let the secret out, evidently its a 2 team race and the Magic shouldn't even be talked about, even if they were the only team in the NBA to beat the Pistons and Celtics TWICE....
I would be happy with an Eastern Finals appearance (and by appearance I mean a 6 or 7 game series)...making it to the Finals would be absolutely amazing, no doubt about it...

Yeah, beat Celtics in middle November in Orlando when each team hadn't even played 10 games yet, so basically a meaningless win in essence at this point in the season, then the Magic got handed a 12 point beat down in Boston, then at full strength the Magic - at home - required a miracle 3 at the buzzer to beat Boston minus their best player in Kevin Garnett.

A win is a win is a win. For some reason, you can't seem to get that through your head. It doesn't matter when, why, or by how much. A win is a win.

It took a miracle for them at full-strength to beat a team minus an mvp candidate, color me not impressed. I guess you can't get that through your fat head either...
Wanna know how little the regular season wins count in the postseason? Phoenix Suns 3-1 vs. spurs in the regular season. Suns choked away game one big time and didn't even deserve to be playing in the second game. But hey, based on the logic used for the Magic then the Suns should be up 2-0 in this series so far.

Way to start throwing insults when someone challenges you on a point. Then again, I expected nothing less of you.

I'm still rooting for the Sixers, even though they looked pathetic last night. They'll get some help from the home fans.
