Most of the threads already have the schedules posted in them, but I guess this is a nice reference to look at instead of digging through those threads. Can't wait to watch Dallas and SA go at it on Sunday.
Personally for me the most interesting series in the first round : West Mavs v Spurs ( best chance of going 7 games ) . Nothing like a ole fashion I-35 rivalry . East Magic v Bobcats ( Going for Magic to win the title ! )
i remembered staying up till 2-3am to see what the playoff schedule the past 3 years, not so this year....
