    I joined. Although I don't really believe we can win the Lakers if we get out of the first round, I just couldn't vote for them. Rox in 6, in 7, in 6 and in 6! :eek: :D

    I think home court advantage is the deciding factor. I'd probably have taken us in 6 if we had HCA.

    Did you mean CLE would beat ATL in the 2nd round or did you mean MIA would beat ATL in the 1st round?

    Whoops. I think MIA will beat ATL in the 1st round.

    Will fix.


    Hmmm .. reviewing my choices, it looks like I almost always just chose the team that I thought had the best player in the series. SAS vs DAL and SAS vs NOH being possible exceptions (though a case could certainly be made for Parker/Duncan).
