The Bools will lose to Boston and the Clippers will win the title.

And I still won't watch any coverage.

It's hard to find an upset in the first round, although I think Memphis/LAC will be an outstanding series.

Yes. That's probably gonna be the most enjoyable of the first round matchups.

Going into the season, Indiana going over Orlando would've been an upset but now I think Indiana is actually the better team. And I doubt that Dwight shows up. If he shows up, it could go 6 or 7. If not, Pacers could knock them off in 5.

That would be great. I can seriously see the Knicks giving the Heat some trouble.

Grizz / Clippers is gonna be fun...

Dwight is out for the year. He had his "back surgery", and there's also rumors that he has requested a trade for this summer. I seriously doubt he suits up for the Magic ever again. He might be the biggest bitch in the NBA now.

Move over Lebron, you got company...

Dwight has succeeded at becoming a bigger villain than Lebron.

Oh well...Pacers in 5.

Orlando is a better team without Dwight. He is soft like cream cheese. I wouldn't be at all shocked if the Magic pushed it 6 or 7 or even won outright

They're 4-6 since Howard starting pouting.

The 4 wins were against Detroit, Cleveland, Philly, and Charlotte. That's not very impressive at all. Pacers are going to crush them.

If I were Glen Davis, from the moment I got into the league I would've done whatever I could to distance myself from that nickname.

After getting fined for the second time this season — the latest for cursing out at a fan heckling him — Celtics forward Glen "Big Baby" Davis admits it's time to grow up. His plan: Retire the sippy cup, graduate to a "big boy bed," and drop the immature nickname.

"I've been called 'Big Baby' all through my life," said Davis before Monday night's wet and wild Celtics-Clippers game. "But I'm going through changes. I'm in a cocoon and I'm coming out a different player, a different person. Basically, the new person is growth. I'm shedding that 'Big Baby' and you can see something else, not the past."

Glen "Big Butterfly" Davis?
No?
Just a thought.

Davis requested that fans should give him new nickname suggestions via his Twitter page (@GlenDavisNBA). But when The Boston Metro's Jeff Howe suggested "Uno Uno" — Spanish for Davis' No. 11 jersey and in the spirit of Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochicinco — the 24-year-old erupted in delight.

"I like that," he said. "I'll be 'Uno Uno.' That's my new name. Don't call me 'Big Baby' any more. 'Uno Uno.' I'm serious. If somebody calls me ('Big Baby'), I'll be really mad. I'm going to blast that out on Twitter and Facebook."

"Uno Uno." Seriously, Glen? Try "Um, no ... Um, no." That is horrible.

Glen doesn't see the irony in talking about needing to grow up, yet still asking people to call him by a nickname. :lol:

I see both of us picked the Knicks to upset the Heat. I'm not sure what that means right now. I'm surprised you expect Vinny Del Negro to go to the WCF but they do have the talent to pull it off. This looks like these playoffs could be really great. Anything could happen.

I picked the Clippers before the season to make the WCF in spite of Vinny. Just sticking to that.

I think the Knicks have what it takes to make a deep run in this years playoffs and I would just LOVE the circus that would surround LeBron and the puds losing in the 1st round.
