Looking like I'm gonna make a lot of money again this year because of Orlando. They're looking great right now. They even had a couple of bad shooting games and still managed to win, and when they shoot well, they're unstoppable. Why people are only now starting to give them respect boggles my mind.
The next series should be a better test for them though, and I am actually hoping for the Cavs rather than the Celtics. It's much easier to stop one guy with a systematic defence than a whole team (minus Pierce, who's looking selfish and old), and the Cavs even with their trades, still don't match up well with the Magic. Nelson and Carter would have their way with the Cavs backcourt, while the frontcourt would be somewhat of a wash.
Suns-Lakers. I'm rooting for the Suns, but I really don't see how they can deal with Gasol and Bynum together. Kobe is on another level compared to Ginobli, and it would be tough there as well. Huge mismatch at PG and SF though. Grant Hill can still play!
