NBA PLAYOFFS By: Matt Spezia

THE Bracket in the west LA vs. Denver New Orleans vs. Dallas San Antonio vs. Phoenix Utah vs. Houston

MY predictions LA vs. Denver Well up top there pretty even Denver has Allen Iverson, but LA has Kobe so I think the games will come down to the down low game. LA has Odem but Denver has Carmelo, Martin, and Camby. So I am going to go with Denver on a 4-2 series

My predictions I have the hornets winning this one. Sure the Mavericks have dirk and terry and Howard, BUT the Hornets have Paul Peta And Chandler Hornets have the up top and middle game but The Mavs have dirk so I the think the hornets win this series 4-3

My predictions This I think will be the best series besides the champion ship The spurs are the defending champs but the sun have more depth so I am going with the suns they just have the spurs beat every were all the spurs have is Tim Duncan but the sun have Nash bell Amare and O'Neill So the suns win 4-1

My predictions Rockets all the way here they have T-mac and the Jazz have Carlos boozer but the rockets have more depth so iam going with the rockets on 4-3 win

The bracket in the east Boston vs. hawks Pistons vs. 76ers Magic vs. raptors Cavs vs. Wizards

My prediction Celtics are going to crush the Hawks the Celtics have Kg pierce and Allen but all the hawks have is bibby and Jonson so the Celtics win 4-0

My prediction Pistons because the sixers just plain suck. 4-2 win for the pistons

My prediction Orlando was Lewis and Howard but the raptors have bosh so iam going with the upset raptors on a 4-3 win

My prediction Cavs no doubt in my mind they have lebron and Wallace but the wizards have arenas and Jefferson Cavs Wizards 4 1

My predictions in the west DEN vs. Jazz NOH vs. Suns

My predictions in the East Boston vs. Cavs Pistons vs. Raptors

Denver vs. Houston I think the rockets are going to win this the nuggets will be tried after beating LA and the rockets got by easily so I am going with Denver on a 4-1 victory because of Denver's great depth.

NOH vs. SUNS I think this will be a great game the suns own down low and NOH kills up top so I think the NOH will win on a 4-3 victory.

Boston vs. Cavs Boston got by the hawks easily but the Cavs did kill Washington so I'm going to go with Boston on a 4-3 victory. Boston just has more depth

Pistons vs. Raptors Now this will be a blow out Pistons will lose this series. 4-0 sweep. Mainly because of the pistons up top skill.

Final east teams BOSTON Vs. Detroit

Final teams in the west Nuggets Vs. Hornets

Boston vs. the pistons I think that the pistons are going to win this one because they have been together more years and have been in this place before so pistons on a 4-2 win
