Well, my two Finals contenders are still alive…still, the 2007 NBA post-season is proving once again that I know very little about basketball. I can’t say I predicted the ugly Miami implosion, the Mavericks’ brutal collapse or yet another first-round falloff for T-Mac and the Rockets. (Then again, not many did. I also wrongly had Toronto over NJ too, but, as I said, that was more due to wanting to see VC get his karmic just-desserts than any basketball sense. Ah well.) At any rate, here’s hoping Phoenix and Golden State can keep moving forward in the West. Sorry to the Utah fans out there, but a Jazz-Spurs Western Conference Final really sounds too boring to contemplate, and either of them up against almost-assured Eastern winner Detroit doesn’t sound all that relishable to me either (even if it would be nice, a la ‘Zo and Payton last year, to see C-Webb get a ring.)
