that’s right.. i’m sure this time it will be very unpredictable especially on the case of the West where almost all of the teams considered are equally brilliant.. On the East side however, it has got to be among the 4 top teams: Boston, Detroit, Orlando and Cleveland..

Here are my bets for the first round..

NO beats MAVS

PHX beats SA

HOU beats UTAH

LA beats DEN

BOS beats ATL

CLE beats WAS

DET beats SIX

ORL beats TOR

Of course this bets are bias with my personal favorites…

It would be a thrill to think that Boston and Lakers would match up in the finals, but Boston is too tough for the Lakers.. so i’m hoping Lebron’s team will do the job in annihilating the best team for the Lakers to win the championship.. ^_^
