The Cavs have been blazing hot recently and if they keep up this kind of success i think they could maybe go deep in the playoffs i dont think they have a shot to win it all but there's always hope. Been a Cavs fan a lot of my life and would love for them to go all the way but the depth in the lineup just isnt strong enough, Lebron cant do it all.

I'm a "temporary" Heat fan, wanting Shaq to whoop the CRAP outta' Dirk! Go SHAQ--WOOT WOOT! LoL. In all seriousness? I think they can take it--no duo has played better in the playoffs  than Dwayne and Shaq. Plus, I'd love to see Mourning,Peyton, and Walker finally get rings after such long careers. GO HEAT! =)

The Nets aremy favorite team, and even though they won the season series against miami, I just don't see them beating miami in a 7 game series. I think miami will beat them in 7 but there is also a good chance of them defeating miami.

Are you kidding, do you honestly think the Cavs can win in detroit? The Cavs have James...wow 1 star player, Detroit has Prince, Wallace, Wallace, Billups, and Hamilton. 5 star players, plus their bench rocks. F*ck the Cavs, you all KNOW they are going to lose in Detroit, even if comes down to the 7th game, Pistons still have home court advantage, and they don't lose at home, and they have the best record to show for it!

In response to Chess...LeBron isn't overrated. For some reason you think he is but that is completely wrong. As others have stated Motown was just too good of a team for the Cavs to beat. Once the Cavs get another decent player and they develop as a team the could be the equivelant to the early 90's Bulls.

Thanks Bro.\nLike he said, all Lebron had to do was be a little patient.  VERY impressive against a good Pistons team.\n\nYESSS!!!  \nGame 6 in Cleveland tomorrow night...

I like LeBron, but he can't do it by himself...They may beat the Pistons...but it's the MJ thing all over again.  It wasn't until Jordan got his teammates involved he started to win championships.  A championship may happen... just not now.

Yes, they will make it to the finals....of course.\n\nAnd yes, LeBron and the crew have gotten the best of them the last 2 games, but not in the Palace!!!!\n\n**GO PISTONS**

their star player is Lebron James.  I think they just depended on him to bring them back on a day when he wasnt feelin his best.  sure they have Ilgauskas but he cant do much without team support and most of that was goin to Lebron.  and bein at detroit really didnt help like you said but i dont think it was a set up.  the pistons were ranked #1 so i wasnt really expecting them to lose no matter where they played.

I believe they have a very good chance. They were dominating the first part of the season with some excellent pitching and offense and defense. And don't worry, everybody has a slump, they bounce right back and get into the flow of things. So, yes, I believe they will make it int othe playoffs.

I'm glad for them, but the Pistons have been playing poor basketball and I "Guaransheed" that if Cavs advance, Miami won't do that. So They better not rely on their almighty Cavs' defense. Pistons have been playin sloppy and they iso too much. I'm not taking anything away from the Cavs,  but the Pistons think that they can win by outscoring their opponents or somethin, that's not them

I think that Detroit has too much experience and pride to let Lebron win on their home court in a Game 7, so Pistons win in that series. In the Spurs/Mavs series, the Spurs definitely have the upper hand and confidence going into Game 7 at home. After being down 3-1 and practically being hailed as an "upset" they came back and did the unexpected--and you have to think that might be in Dallas' head a little after such an emotionally blow. I pick San Antonio to advance...As far as Suns and Clippers, I think it's a toss up! Both teams have laid it all down, and if I HAD to pick--I'd choose Phoenix. All in all? I see Spurs and Heat *(upset against Detroit)* in the finals, with the Spurs winning a back-to-back! We shall see though..! =)

I've been asking myself the same question ever since the season began.\n\nI think Lebron has huge chances. The Cavs are doing good and basically, they depend on Lebron to do almost everything. Cavs are a team of nobodies, and if Lebron does have a 52+ win season averaging 29/6/6, He will be a shoe-in for MVP. If not, blame the judges.\n\nOther players I consider for the MVP award are: Dirk Nowitzki, Dallas; Steve Nash, Phoenix (He's got the assist stat owned so why not); Carlos Boozer, Utah (guy's been really good this year); Dwyane Wade (Wade's still the same high-powered scoring offensive beast out on the court, but his team isn't doing so well); and Tim Duncan (Probably another best record in the NBA. If Duncan keeps up his 22/12/3 effort, He could be a deadly candidate); Yao Ming (He's shown he deserved the first overall draft pick selection and he is healthy); and Kobe Bryant (Im still doubtful about this; hope Kobe returns to his 81-point form, but with more assists).\n\nThat's all I got. I still think LBJ will get it all.

I would have to agree with you 100%! It would be a fantastic series to watch, and honestly? I think any team that wants to BE the best should have to PLAY the best, too! I think this year it is going to come down to the Spurs and Heat, but it isn't a SURE THING, and I think that only adds to the fascination! The only teams that have been contested in these playoffs are the teams that have played the Spurs, and the teams that have played the Pistons. The scary part? Those two teams are STILL standing...! What will happen next? No clue! But I DO have a feeling it will be San Antonio and Phoenix in the Conference Finals...! =)

They're only 2.5 games out of the eight seed going into tonights games so it's possible.  I don't know if they have it though.  I'd have to say no.  They're just not that good this year.

Maybe they can compensate for the pathetic Jerry Sloan!  But yeah, the Jazz are playing some good basketball right now, and they are making the West even harder to beat.  Carlos Boozer has really stepped up and come out after last season's injury.  But as the other guy said, Andre Kirilenko may get another injury, which is really common for this guy.  I think they should have a good season and make the playoffs.  That's if they can keep a healthy team together.
