Who wants to play New Orleans in the playoffs?

[Xylus]

I don't.

[ratm1221]

I don't.

What team do you play for?

[Findog]

I can't really think of any team I want to play in the playoffs. We're better than Houston on paper and we've owned them the past 3 years, but I wouldn't want any part of them if they playoffs started TODAY. Denver just doesn't seem cohesive and disciplined enough to be much of a threat in the playoffs. I wouldn't mind playing Utah as long as we had HCA. Other than that, any other team will be a bitch for us to beat.

The Globetrotters.

I want the Mavs to play the Spurs in the first round. Might be our last window for a playoff rematch.

[ratm1221]

Suns would be fun too. They could get a little revenge on Shaq.

[Obstructed_View]

Nobody worries me if the Spurs are playing well. If the playoffs started today, they can't beat anybody.

[Indazone]

The Globetrotters.

Aren't they unbeaten?

[SpursDynasty]

I would like for the Spurs to play NOH in the first round and show Paul/West the truth about their All-Star selections.

[Xylus]

Yeah, so imagine how good the Hornets must be.

Another Jinx attempt? You're pathetic. If you don't want to play New Orleans, just say it. Stop using this reverse/Jinx stuff.

[Indazone]

Rockets will play them...lol we own them this season!

Wow I'm REALLY concerned about the Spurs playing a team that wasn't even in the playoffs last year.

Some people are so easily impressed.

Now was that so hard? To admit your fear of the Hornets? You are on your way to recovery.

I would not mind Spurs vs. Hornets in 1st round. good warmup

Do you really want to get put out so early?

[Medvedenko]

We destroyed them last game but that was with Bynum...so who knows. They are a talented team no doubt and the Lakeshow will be in tough come Friday.

[hater]

Do you really want to get put out so early?

we've had tough 1st rounds everytime we win a championship. Remember Denver? hottest team in the league 2nd part of season.

I would rather face a young inexperience team than say, Lakers/Mavs/Suns in 1st round

[SpursDynasty]

It's funny how teams like the Spurs, Mavs, and Suns (Who have all reached the Western Conference Finals in recent years) are less feared currently in than a couple of teams with no playoff experience who just happen to be shooting some lucky hoops in the regular season and getting a couple of wins here and there (Hornets and Rockets).

Hornets and Rockets = eliminated in the first round.

If there's someone the Spurs can't beat in a seven game series, they might as well save us all the trouble and start their vacations early.

WTF does last year have to do with this year, dumbfuck??

That the Hornets and Rockets have no playoff experience, asswipe.

[Amarelooms]

want no part of the hornets.

to be honest, i would feel the best against the spurs.

Best matchup for the Mavs is the Spurs :elephant

[Dirk Nowitzki]

Peja isnt a playoff performer. If the Hornets can have others step when Peja goes MIA in the postseason, that would be huge for them.

[rcs15]

Peja isnt a playoff performer.

Says the poster Dirk Nowitzki....Oh the irony

[BonnerDynasty]

I'll take the hornets first round over the Mavs.

^Thank you for that Nashty. Spurs fans should be the last ones talking.

Regarding the Hornets, it's and old cliche, but it's about matchups. From what I have seen, they have a hard time with big frontlines who negate their usual advantage with West and Chandler.

The other main issue for them are dominant wing players, since after MoPete their best defender there is .... Jannero Pargo?

Two teams therefore come to mind immediately, Lakers and Rox. The results also show that.

Their best matchups would be smallball teams that try to run, because the Hornets can run pretty well themselves and bang inside too. GS and Phx therefore would be the teams they would most like to see in first round.

[Don Quixote]

I for one would LOVE to see the Spurs meet the Hornets sometime in the playoffs.

Not only would I get to see my beloved Silver & Black in at least 2 playoff games, but I could catch them in my beloved adopted home of New Orleans.

I just hope it wouldn't suck as bad as their last game ...

[dude1394]

I don't.

Now that is funny.

Heck me neither...In fact I'm not crazy about playing any of these western conference types, they are all murder.

[dallaskd]

Detroit does.

[mojorizen7]

We'll take a first round matchup against Houston, Dallas, Utah, and maybe Denver.
I don't want to see the Hornets or the Warriors.
CP3 makes Nash look like he's running in cement at times and Stoudemire will be forced to guard somebody against the Warriors.

Hi Jeff.

[Jack Sommersset]

I think EVERY team would want to face the Hornets in the 1st round. Think about it.
