I think the Hornets can beat the Nuggets, and I like the matchups with the Mavs and Spurs.

Anyway, my predictions:

East:
Cavs over Pistons (probably 5 or 6 games)
Celtics over Bulls (in 5)
Magic over 76ers (in 6)
Hawks over Heat (in 7)

I don't see any upsets here at all.

West:
Lakers over Jazz (in 5)
Nuggets over Hornets (in 7)
Mavericks over Spurs (in 7)
Rockets over Trail Blazers (in 7)

The Rockets - Blazers series could really go either way..

I'm calling an L.A. sweep
Spurs over Mavs in 6
Nuggets over Hornots in 7 sounds right
Rockets over Blazers in 6 w/ or w/out HCA

Cavs sweep Detroit
Celtics over Bulls in 6, but it def. can go 7
Hawks over Heat in 6
Magic over Philly in 5

Pretty sure that David Stern wants to see a LeBron vs Kobe match up in the finals, so the refs should be on the sides of the Cavs and Lakers all the way.
