    God East sucks so bad its depressing. The only series worth watching in that entire playoff is Celtics vs Pistons. Everything else is Sportscenter fodder. West however...nothing but must see TV there.

    Well Pistons are a good choice since Boston's lack of depth could come back to nip them, but Boston has more fire, and with Sam joining on, they aren't so wobbly @ point. Plus, Detroit hasn't made it out of the East in two years (which is long for them).

    Cleveland - The King James factor isn't tough to compute at this point...esp. when you put him in there with all these newly acquired guys. Delonte West can play and Wallace at the 4 helps them.Their acquisitions need to get integrated in and I think they have enough time to do it.Anderson will come back and play big.Gooden IMO is addition by subtraction.He's a selfish player who doesn't make smart plays out there.Big Z gives them a legit center.They've added shooting and Gibson is a year older.
    Whatever their position going in,I see them going to the Finals if healthy.It might take a little while but Cleveland will get it together and roll.

    Boston doesn't have enough depth and the Pistons don't have enough to beat last year's Cavs team,much less the new and improved bunch.

    as long as its not the cavs. im tired of cleveland fans annointing the cavs as legit contenders for the next 5-6 years based on one postseason of play.

    For those of you with the haterade mustaches, it is a joke...

    I have been to the rockets pistons game 2 years ago, In Detroit. The game where Luther head missed the possible game winner. The palace is one of the best arena's in the NBA.
