    i would say the thunder but its a lost cause.

    i would then say the suns, but i want them to lose early so amare wants to leave and either ends up here on in the east making the west a little easier.

    i will never go with the jazz, mavs, spurs, or lakers.

    nuggets and blazers it is!!

    Durant with his deep Texas connection, OKC is the under dog, and the fact they're a fun team to watch.

    And we all DESPISE the Lakers.

    I've always been a closet Spurs fan, mostly because I'm a massive Duncan fan.

    Spurs, then Thunder.

    Like QdoubleA, at the end of the day I would love to know the trophy was in Texas. And since I live up here in North Texas, and Mavs fans are easier to deal with when they're happy, I chose the Mavs. If I was living back in San Antonio I'd pick the Spurs...I guess.

    (it's not really a nice question) ;)

    The only team I respect is the Blazers, they have gone through some tough injuries like us and they have a great knowledgeable fan base so if I had to chose then Portland.

    I voted Blazers because I lived there for 8 years. I would have voted Thunder, but I want them swept out in 4 straight blowouts so they don't gain any "real" playoff experience. Once they get a legit big man to play with KD and Westbrook, and all the other talented young'ns, they will be scary for a LONG time.

    Of course at one point I thought Portland could win 3-4 championships in a row once they drafted Oden, but that hasn't exactly panned out.

    On a side note, I find it funny how a lot of people on this board is supporting OKC, who i feel would surpass the rox in the next few years.

    If Yao is healthy next season, IMO, i feel that OKC and the rox would meet in the first round next playoffs. Most likely as the 4th and 5th seed or 3 vs 6th. I still feel the top two would be lakers and mavs. A series against OKC would be interesting as I feel it would be damn close.

    Anyone who voted for either Jazz, Mavs, or Spurs should have their B@!!$ chopped off...

    And if you are a woman, then I'm just happy you like basketball :p .

    The suns are one of the few teams that are entertaining to watch.

    I wanted to see Portland go far, but since Roy's injury, I doubt they make it past the first round.

    Interesting results, I didn't think it would be that clear-cut.

    Though there not western conference... BOBCATS
    Captain Jack deserves a ring and Gerald Wallace is a best... would kill to have him on the Rockets. Also, Dj Augustine has proven himself as sort of clutch. They also have one of the best defense in the league
