NBA Champs

After dissecting my heavily flawed early season predictions it is time to release the playoff predictions. This Blog's very first post stated the NBA Finals to commence with the Boston Celtics and New Orleans Hornets as the opposing participants. With the losses of Kevin Garnett and Tyson Chandler each team is one big man short of an NBA Finals appearance. However, my early season predictions do have some hope of betterment; if the Magic do win a series, if Lebron does win the MVP, and if the Houston Rockets finally emerge past the first round.

With the disappointment of the failed NBA prophecies behind me; the time has arrived for the 2008/2009 postseason predictions. Keep in mind this is what I think is going to happen and certainly not what I want to happen. The only hope is that this Garnet injury debacle is a hoax or he recovers in time for the Eastern Conference Finals against the Cavs.
