    It's about 20 games till the end of the season for most teams.

    Who will be in the Finals? Make your predictions.
    I'm setting up a poll for what I think are the most likely scenarios, but feel free to propose your own if you've got other ideas. I'm sure you all will.

    I still have some gut feeling that the Heat are going to find their way into the Finals.

    Mavs over Heat in 6.

    everyone will fall in love with the mavs for a while for humbling the Heatles.

    FYI, my rationale for the matchups I selected as most likely is that I think the most likely teams to come out of the West are the Lakers or the Spurs, and the most likely teams from the East are the Heat, Magic, or Celtics. But I threw in the Mavs and the Bulls as wildcards, because I think they're the next most likely to upset the frontrunners...

    I don't see the Trailblazers listed... Is that just a typo?

    No, but feel free to make your prediction...
    As a Spurs fan I'd obviously be disappointed if anyone other than the Spurs goes to the Finals from the West, but as a basketball fan, if an underdog like the Blazers went all the way - WOW. That'd be awesome.

    Mavs in finals? As of yesterday, you had them pegged to lose in the first round.

    I was JK... Blazers won't go all the way but they'll be a tough out whoever they play.

    For the last 3 years you have picked the team with Lebron on it to go to the finals and FAILED!

    It won't be much of a series this time around. The Celts don't have the frontcourt to matchup with the Lakers. They are relying on a broken down Shaq for crying out loud.

    Dallas - Chicago

    Rose will go 06 Wade on the Mavs without having help from the refs.

    Are you ing re ed? Find a post where I said that. I didn't. I actually made a thread where I predicted that the winner of the Mavs/Lakers playoff series would win the NBA championship.

    I'm thinking Chicago and LA, with the winner being whoever has homecourt.
