I voted Dallas vs Memphis. Should be two teams meeting in the 2nd round, but have to face each other in the first. Memphis swept Dallas in the regular season, but I don't see that happening in the playoffs. Can easily go to 7 games.
My first round predictions:
East 1 Detroit over 8 Indiana in 5 games 4 Cleveland over 5 Miami in 5 games 3 New Jersey over 6 Boston in 7 games 2 Orlando over 7 Toronto in 4 games
West 1 San Antonio over 8 LA Lakers in 5 games 5 Memphis over 4 Dallas in 7 games 6 Denver over 3 Portland in 5 games 2 Phoenix over 7 New Orleans in 4 games

I love being the underdog in my homecourt. Although i dont like T-macs absence, other teams will struggle with injuries aswell. Which is why i voted the Boston vs. New Jersey game. I personally like Boston,New Orleans and Memphis' chances in terms of advancing to the next round. Hate it or love it..the underdogs on top..LOL..(maybe not but we'll see)

I disagree, you are a banged up DET so if there is a time to take you out, it would be now. It still will be real tough to do, but don't count a team out in the playoffs. You never know, especially with your injuries.

Hopefully Spurs vs Lakers is the most boring series, I don't want my boys having to play more than 4 games, and I don't want to be worried that I might lose in the first!

I didn't do too bad for Round 1.
My first round predictions:
East 1 Detroit over 8 Indiana in 5 games 4 Cleveland over 5 Miami in 5 games 3 New Jersey over 6 Boston in 7 games 2 Orlando over 7 Toronto in 4 games
West 1 San Antonio over 8 LA Lakers in 5 games 5 Memphis over 4 Dallas in 7 games
6 Denver over 3 Portland in 5 games 2 Phoenix over 7 New Orleans in 4 games
* Off by 1 game * Correct
* Incorrect * Series in progress
I'll do my round 2 predictions after tomorrow's games are up

I don't know SA, if i remember correctly, I pretty much dominated ORL in the regular season. I could no doubt win this series, MEM dominated DAL in the regular season and look what happened in the playoffs.

Did you? I didn't know that. You also did have Kidd, who is extremely important to your team. I wonder how me and Memphis matched up in the regular season, I'll have to look in to that.

True, but did you see GP's numbers in the playoffs. They may be even better than Kidd's in the regular season(although he oviously played more games).

Round 2 Predictions: San Antonio over Memphis in 6 Phoenix over Portland in 5 Detroit over Cleveland in 6 Orlando over New Jersey in 6 Wow, I called it perfectly! All of my predictions have been near perfect, I was off by a few games for a couple in the first round. I am almost scared to do any more predictions, I don't want to ruin my record lol. Lets see.. Detroit over Orlando in 6 San Antonio over Phoenix in 6 Detroit definately does not have a cakewalk in Orlando, and I could definately be wrong about that series completely, anything can happen in that one. I feel like Detroit would win, but I would definately not count Orlando out. My next prediction was a little easier, with Nash out, I feel very certain I can win the series, just not sure in how many games. They could take one, and then Nash could come back and they could take another, so I settled on 6.
