SO the suit was wrong. Don't get used to it. The Magic proved me wrong and defeated the Celtics in Boston in the deciding game 7, advancing to the conference finals to face the cavs, in a series where they will be swept (4-1)
AND I was right about the lakers, they advance to face the Nuggets in the western conference finals. I see this one going the distance in a Knock down, Drag out. Lakers, 4-3.
SO the suit has the cavs and lakers in the finals, just like everyone used to. good thing i'm original.
This is it for the suit.

It's Good To Be SUIT.
WOW.
Have these playoffs been something? two teams seperate themselves from the rest of the pack, but of course... one was unexpected.
Many people had the Cleveland Cavaliers and the LA Lakers meeting in the finals without much resistance on the way. Cleveland has held up their end of the deal.. but LA? they lost in Houston yesterday to set up a Decisive game 7 in LA. I don't think many people if any outside of houston gave the Rockets a chance of taking this to Seven games, but somehow, without Tracy McGrady, and Yao Ming, they have gone stride for stride with the Lakers.
Denver has stepped up into the spotlight and Replaced the Lakers as the team no one wants to play right now in the west. Where did this come from? If you ask me (and you don't have to, It's my blog, and I already did) The secret Ingredient may have been replacing an old worn out Allen Iverson with a Veteran who's been there, done that in Chauncey Billups, who is making his 7th straight appearance in the conference finals. AMAZING. so lets recap... -Allen Iverson + Chauncey Billups = MAGIC
Speaking of Magic, they are locked in another 7 games series with a team that many expected to roll over and play dead when they lost their best player right before the playoffs started. but they didn't, and now the celtics have a chance to advance to their 2nd straight conference final, and play the Cavaliers. I may be bias, but I believe the Cavs win against whoever they play.
Game 7 predictions
LA over Houston - LA is too much at home for houston to deal with, escpecially without YAO.
Boston over Orlando - They've been winning all postseason when they weren't supposed to. so why not now? Home court Decided this series.
Thats it for the SUITS playoff Recap.
Until Next Time.

Welcome to the Jungle.
B-ball in Season is your NUMBER ONE blog to find everything basketball on scoreonair.com, and mostly everything baseball.
The Cleveland Cavaliers completed the swiffer of the Atlanta Hawks, winning 74-64 in Atlanta Monday night.
Now Remember, we call it a swiffer, rather than a sweep, because it is our consensus belief (and it should also be yours) that Swiffers work better than a regular broom, hence leading to a more commanding stature. If you are too lazy to read our last entry, a swiffer is a 4-0 series win, a sweep has been downgraded to 4-1, followed by a dustbunny(4-2) and finally a Knock down-dragout. (4-3)
The Cavaliers are now the only team in NBA history to win there first 8 games in the playoffs by more than 10 points. And if you think about it, winning the first two series by swiffers is amazing, let alone by double digits EVERY time. Never before, in a parity filled league, has a team been this dominant in a playoff of the leagues best teams. Simply stunning.
The Magic and Celtics play tonight, also the Rockets and Lakers, each having there series tied at 2.
Roger Clemens has come out and talked for the first time in a long time about his steroid use. He still denies ever using them. Even when the fact of his long time Teammate Andy Pettite said he remembers talking to clemens about using steroids and HGH, clemens says that Pettite "misremembers". a likely story.
Back with more tomorrow,
