I predict Suns versus Pistons with a Detroit win in 7. I haven't watched alot of bball this year but after seeing the Suns the last two games they are pretty amazing. I think the Mav's will probably win the GS series but as someone above said they are much better than their 8 seed ranking and I wouldn't be surprised at this series going 7 games at all.

I will go out on a limb and take Denver over the Spurs as well.

Ice I agree that the Mavs laid an egg in game 3 but the Warriors defense should get some credit. The Mavs spent pretty much the whole game shooting jump shots, they couldn't get any kind of penetration because the Warriors were playing good defense and were faster than the Mavs. Their offense looked completelty stagnant they pretty much stood around and watched one guy try to score again this usually equals lots of jumpers. When you shoot all jumpers your shooting percentage goes down. The thing that really should scare Mavs fans is their defense, the Warriors shot over 50% because they were getting to the rim at will and not only on fast breaks but in the set offense. The Warriors slowed the pace in the 4th quarter this game could easily have been 30+ point blowout.

Agreed...but the Mavs were ranked 7th in the entire league in defense so they should be able to figure out how to stop them.

The Suns play the same way and Dallas split with them this year and knocked them out of the playoffs last year. I think if Dallas plays their game, they win. In other words, Dallas' "A" game is better than GS' "A" game.

Right now, GS is just outhustling Dallas. They have much more energy, but Dallas is a veteran team and should make the proper adjustments and win this thing.

Warriors have won two games so far in the postseason...I'm psyched about these results and happy...and it's been a long time since I've been happy about Warriors basketball. I have friends who have been fans as long as they remember who have never seen a playoff game let alone a playoff win.

The game tonight should be pretty great to watch...Mavs are going to give pretty much everything tonight...winning home court back is really important now IMO.

It's been a few years since any team I root for has been competitive in the playoffs...it feels great.

Thoughts?
