I have to go with Orlando on this one. He swept his series while you went to 7 games. I think he matches up with you really well too.
Andre Miller vs Gary Payton (until Kidd gets back) is in his favor.
Eddie Jones vs Vince Carter is clearly in your favor.
Andrei Kirilenko vs Posey, definately his favor.
Chris Webber vs Antoine Walker, his too.
Marcus Camby vs Ben Wallace is in your favor, but thats an interesting matchup.

I did pretty well against Orlando in the regular season so actually pretty confident in this one. The keys for me will be winning in Orlando and matching Orlando's defense. I know I will match his defense or even better because we usually play good defense, it's winning on the road that I am worried about. I didn't win once on the road in the first series vs. Boston.

I honestly cannot stress this enough..I dont think it matters if one team Dominates most or every position. Unknown players will step up. Heck if Kyle Korver, Damon and Josh smith can give a strong Denver team a run for their money im guessing any team can do it also.
Let's not forget Memphis vs Dallas, Dallas beat Memph in almost every position from pg-C...inlcuding the bench. But Memph still came up on top.
I think Homecourt advantage is definetely most important for some teams, but some teams also play well on the road.

Wow, New Jersey swept them. If Kidd comes back in time, I can see the series swinging that way.

Orlando took the first one. They better hope to make this a quick series because if Kidd returns in time, Orlando is going to struggle.

Orlando won by 8 points, they must be clamping down on you defensively, holding you to 88 points. If they take the next game on your home court, I'd say it's over.

New Jersey took Game 3, there goes Orlando's perfect playoff run. Orlando is going to have to take the next game at NJ, unless they want to let NJ right back in this.
