1st Round Picks (with extra predictions)
West:
- Lakers over Denver
- Dallas over New Orleans
- Utah over Houston
- Suns over Spurs
East:
- Boston over Atlanta
- Detroit over Philly
- Toronto over Orlando
- Cleveland over Washington
Conference Finals:
- West: Utah vs. Suns
- East: Detroit vs. Boston
Finals:
Boston over Phoenix
As far as upsets go, NOLA will be done in by a thin bench and a lack of a good free throw operation. Toronto's backcourt will prove to be too much for Orlando while Bosh will match Howard's production. The Suns will outlast the Spurs in the first round if Shaq can keep out of foul trouble and Boston will win the Finals in 5.

I agree with all the picks except for Dallas and Toronto. NOLA may be thin, but I don’t think they’re thin enough to get stung by roster holes until next round. Toronto just looks like they can’t match the intensity of Orlando and Dwight is making Bosh look anemic.
I pray for Celtics/Suns, but fear Celtics/Lakers.

I’m really hoping for Celtics/Suns too. I think the Suns got jobbed last year.
