From the viewpoint of a Basketball fan, not a Spurs fan, I think Spurs vs Mavs would be pretty exciting.
Lakers vs Suns would certainly be interesting...
Obviously there is still a long way to go and the West playoff seedings likely won't be set until the last week of the season.
Lakers vs Jazz would be a sweet 1st round.

Spurs vs. Portland would be excellent. Easy sweep, then hopefully, Dallas or Houston.
I don't know about the first round, but I'd love to see the Hawks get revenge on Boston in the second.
Lakers - Suns
Good matchups everywhere.
Ya, I know you're hoping the suns miracuously knock out the lakers so you don't have to face them and face the suns.
Nuggets-Mavs as it guarantees a 1st round playoff series win for us.![]()
Lakers-Suns isn't a good matchup, the Lakers are 3-0 v the Suns since the Gasol trade.
is all i need as a response
Nuggets 3-0 this season![]()
and Carmelo is 0-5 in the 1st round of the playoffs![]()
exactly......what better way to end that streak by playing a crappy mavs team![]()
Best 1st round would be ...(compe yive not looking for easy out)
Spurs vs. suns
Lakers vs. Blazers
Nuggets vs. Rockets
Jazz vs. Hornets
Matchups/Storyline ...
Paul vs. Dwill Who is REALLY the better PG when it counts?
Oden vs. Bynum Kobe vs. Roy Who can recover from injury who is the better closer?
Can the Suns FINALLY beat the Spurs? Duncan vs. shaq Bowen vs. Nash, Hill vs. parker
Who will FINALLY get out of the 1st round? Nene vs. Yao Melo vs. Artest Landry vs. Kmart ...
Right now i have Mavs out of playoffs ...but Could see them knocking out someon also i doubt Blazers drop to 8th ... but they did fll out of the plyoffs last year so i chose them to fall to 8th
One of those games was Shaq'a first game as a sun. One of those games was after this Diaw/Bell trade with Shaq hurt. Take what you will from that recrod.
I think the T-Wolves would be an EXCELLENT first round match for LA.
Good memory and if I recall both were winable for the suns, not blowouts.
They were both very close through 3. Laker fans are deluding them selves if they think the Suns will be an easy match. Infact we dont know what the match up will be like. The Suns team that makes the playoffs wont be compairable to anything we have seen this year.
funny how a couple blowouts against one of the worst teams in the league will get Suns fans bold enough to think they can take on the Lakers. They're still the most delusional fanbase on SpursTalk.
If they meet in the 1st round, Lakers sweep and win by double digits every game.
I'm just wondering if we will ever lose to the Suns. 4-0 last season and 2 double digit victories this season. I think the Suns will be a different team when we play them again, but Nash has troubling running with Chris Paul. Plus, Amare has troubling defending West.
There is no easy path through the Western Conference Finals. Each team could get hot and knock off any other team.
^ That's not true at all, that was more true last year when 8 teams had 50-57 wins.
This year it's the Lakers all the way barring fluke shots and injuries.
No team gets hot for 3 straight series. Maybe 1 like the fluke bull the Warriors pulled off in 07 (but it was a bad matchup regardless, so some might say they didnt "get hot"), but quickly "cooled off" v the Jazz.
u on crack.
Lakers, Spurs, Hornets, Jazz are gonna sleepwalk through Round 1
Beloved Spurs VS Worthless Mavs
I think Lakers Suns is the obvious one here. Even though the Suns would probably lose, Kobe vs. Shaq is always legit.
