If your phrase "the Real Playoffs" is in any way a reference to the NHL playoffs, you are sorely mistaken.

The NBA playoffs are like the bastard step-child of the absolute glory that is the NHL playoffs, where every single night you can feel the vomit welling up inside of you.

Case in point: You can comfortably say "the Pistons are going to rape the magic." Further, it's a big shock if the Pistons don't waltz their way to the ECF every year.

That being said, the Pistons are going to lose to the Mavs in the finals.

well seeing as the mavs are going to lose in the conference finals... im not so sure about that. Spurs, Pistons rematch my friend. 7 game series.

Friday night is that gallery show at the DAM, and saturday is the Tigers game... you should be in attendance for one if possible.

I can't. Finals -- it sucks. I wish I could be there. Let's do a "late-birthday for you / pre-birthday for me" celebration once I get home (around May 4th).

And yes, Tony Kornheiser just said the GSW could beat the Mavs, so I agree with you now. Pistons & Spurs.
