Oddly enough, it may be best for the Celtics to face Cleveland, then Detroit, then San Antonio (I know, that's really looking ahead - but Atlanta still has not come close to beating us at home). Reason being "young and athletic" are not words that jump to mind when I think of those three teams, and the pace of their games may suit us better. So even though they are the most proven playoff teams ahead of us, the match-up may work more to our advantage, as opposed to Orlando, NO or LA. That is a very good point but I wouldn't throw LA into the mold of the other athletic teams. Other than Kobe, they are a bunch of stiffs too. LA plays terrible defense and it will catch up to them soon. I would not be shocked if Utah beats them, but the Jazz need to win one of the first two to accomplish that feat. Go Jazz! But I think SA is coming out of the west, NO is their last hurdle because SA owns LA/Utah and will cruise in the WCF.

Not looking past ATL, however WAS is out, and posed the most issues w/ this club. CLE has the lebron call factor (ever notice that every single time Lebron takes it to the hoop, he is looking at the refs to call the foul?).

I also am relieved that the Wiz are out, they gave us fits with Jamison's' ability to hit the 3. Now lets eliminate these punks and move on to Cleveland.
