The playoffs are almost here and up to the last day of the season, the Western seedings from 3rd-6th have yet to be determined. Share your thoughts on which first round match up you would be most excited to see whether its Tim Duncan and the Spurs vs. Steve Nash and the Suns, Tracy McGrady and the Rockets vs. Deron Williams and the Jazz or Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol and the Lakers vs. Carmelo Anthony, Allen Iverson and the Nuggets

The Suns and the Spurs would be very interesting since this will give the suns to redeem themselves after what happened to their matchup in the previous season. LA vs Denver would also be very interesting especially now that Carmelo would try to bounce back and prove himself after his DUI incident.

I think Melo would want to make an impact since he hasn't gotten out of the first round in his career. Also I'm sure Allen Iverson would also want to prove a point that he can turn the Nuggets into contenders.
In the east, the cavs-wizards and magic-raptors series would be interesting.. The cavs and wizards face each other for the 3rd straight year while there would be lots of Dwight Howard-Chris Bosh stories as well

I'm excited to see the match-up between the Spurs and the Suns. A lot of bad blood is brewing between these two teams. Who could forget the hard foul that Horry gave to Nash last season durign the wc finals? Amare has gone on record and said that the Spurs play dirty especially Bowen. Going out on a limb, I'd say the Spurs take this series in 6 games.

I agree.. Suns would want to make up for their loss last year though.. The matchup between Toronto and Orlando seems interesting also. That would mean lots of Dwight Howard vs. Chris Bosh stories.. Also the matchup between Cleveland and Washington who are facing each other for the 3rd straight year

I can go on record and say that all of the Western Conference match-ups will be exciting especiall PHX and SAS. However, I got my eye on the Wizards, and Cavaliers. The Cavs have ended the Wizards' season each of the last two years in the playoffs. Plus, the winner goes on to play my C's. Haven't really seen Arenas ball all year, and the Wizards have new parts other than Gilbert, Jamison, and Butler. So that will definitely be a good match-up. The West has all the good match-ups to be excited about. Kobe and Gasol versus Iverson and Carmelo. Houston without Alston against Utah. Deron Williams is going to go off. They might want to consider putting Battier on dude. As we saw last night New Orleans and Dallas is going to be a thriller. This is better than March Madness.
