An interesting read. What is amazing is that the top 4 players are the best players in 4 of the top 5 teams in the NBA(i would slip Detroit either 3 or 4 and Houston 5. If Detroit did not have Tayshaun Prince, they wouldn't be in the top 5 right now. )
yeah imo, best teams atm:
1. Dallas (sorry Alban. they did beat us last year. if San Antonio beats Dallas this year, they move up here. =) )
2. San Antonio
3. Phoenix
4. Detroit
5. Houston
I don't know about Houston. If McGrady & Yao are playing well, they're right up there, but if either of them gets in foul trouble or doesn't play well (which includes getting other people involved), they're worthless as a team. I'd put Chicago up there instead of them, pending the result of tonight's game.

my dark horse pick of the year is the Houston Rockets. They have played poorly the past couple of years, due to injury. This year is the year when Yao dominates everyone. He was on fire during the last couple of weeks last season, and i think he is going to continue the trend.
i stand by this darkhorse pick. i see them getting past utah, and give the mavs/warriors a hell of a series. if it's the mavs, rockets in 7, if the warriors, rockets in 5.

I'm rooting against Houston mainly because I just moved down here about a year & a half ago and most of my friends here are overly obnoxious in their fanness, and I'm tired of hearing about them.

Damn, that was a hell of a comeback by the Bulls. I'm very happy right now . In other news, someone needs to go Tonya Harding on James Posey and blow that mofo's knees right out so he can stop mauling every Bulls player he sees. What a dumb thug.
im sick of Antoine Walker. he was legit on the Celtics, but nowadays all he does is foul, whine and occasionally drain a 3, followed by that lame shoulder shake bs

lol. I don't care about him. I just love that the Bulls are about to knock Alonzo Mourning, Gary Payton, and Pat Riley out of the playoffs for about the 50th time...with all new players. Those three used to be right up there with John Starks and Karl Malone on the public enemy list in Chicago.

good match from the start to finish. give credit to the nuggets for trying in this whole series. some teams would lay flat as a dog after going through the spurs stifling defense, but the nuggets are giving 110% right now.
cavs and pistons going to sweep their opponents.
