    I'm not rooting for Dallas, but it'd be nice to have HCA if the Rockets can get past the Lakers.

    Dallas is easy to hate with Cuban, that punk Howard, and Flopitski, but they have some decent guys on their team like Barrea and Dampier (who can say dumb things, but is a hard worker).

    Dirk didn't have a good series vs the spurs. But, it seems he find his rtythm vs the nuggets.

    I think the nuggests played great defense vs the hornets. But, the mavs are a much better offensive team. It will be a tough test for the nuggets.

    One difference between the Mavs and Honey Bees is that the Mavs aren't scared of K-Mart. If it has any effect, that throw-down will hurt the Nugs, not the Mavs.

    I'd rather have the Mavericks win this series, as much as I hate Dallas. I don't know which team is easier to take out though. Nuggets have more bodies on Yao, but Dallas has much more versatile offensive players than Denver.

    I think the nuggets are a better matchup than the mavs for the rockets.

    I would prefer the rockets play the nuggets in WCF. ;)

    Maybe, I'm scared of Jason Terry though. He plays like a superstar against us. The last game in the season showed that the Mavericks can easily take out Yao in the game and they can own us.

    I prefer the Nuggets actually thinking about it.

    "Could"? Dallas WILL win if they player together with chemistry. Mentally, they are far ahead of the Nuggets.

    The mavs are a balanced team, no obvious weakness. It is hard to beat a team like them in playoffs.

    If Howard's ankle acts up, this series is over.

    Nene is amazing. 3rd best center in the NBA behind Howard and then #1 Yao ;) , I consider Big Al a power forward anyways.

    Dirk has lost his athleticism, he's only 30 but he rarely drives anymore and he barely finishes hard at the rim, I want this to be competitive, Come on Dallas.

    Dirk was always more of jumpshooter anyways, it's not like he will want to drive in with the Birdman,Nene, or Kmart waiting to block a weak floater!

    Man two teams who I can not stand. I hate Dirk, Barrera, Howard, Terry, Cuban and Ryan Hollins. On the other side I hate Kenyon Martin, Carmello Anthony, and Jr Smith, Kleiza, and George Karl. I think it will be a very good series though. If I had to make a prediction I would say Ponies is 6.
