It’s the time that we all been waiting for – NBA playoff time. Let’s take a look at what’s on tap in round one:

The Pistons will be pooping shoe for a while.

Cavaliers vs. Pistons:

I think we all know what’s going to happen here. Besides, they need more ugly guys on their team like they had in 2004 (and back in the early 90′s). The rule is that you should either have talented players or a team full of mad, ugly dudes. I think they need to go mad and ugly.

Look at me mom...I fooled them into thinking I'm good enough to be a lottery pick!!!

Celtics vs. Bulls:

I almost thought that the Bulls could pull off the upset with Kevin Garnett missing in action. But then I saw the picture to the right.

Any team that lets a guy like this play big minutes is definitely gonna lose. What a cornball.

Anybody else want some of Dwight Howard??

Magic vs. Sixers:

Dwight Howard is the real deal. Samuel Dalembert is a wannabe Dikembe Mutombo. No contest here.

Andre Miller’s point guard saavy won’t be nearly enough to give the Sixers a chance in this series. The Magic have too many weapons to choose from.

Unfortunately, the Sixers will only end up in one, very familiar position.

Hawks vs. Heat:

This is going to be a great series. The Hawks are outstanding at home. They have a very, young athletic team. Joe Johnson is one of the best players in the league. Based on his skill set, he is probably more of a Kobe-clone than is LeBron James. And Josh Smith is just a freak.

D-Wade would have been my choice for MVP. He leads a squad with only one other potential All-Star (Michael Beasley), and has them sitting confortably as a #5 seed. 30.2 PPG, 5.0 RPG, 7.5 APG, 2.1 SPG, 1.3 BPG, 49% FG…DAYUM!!! That being said, he’s gonna need a bonfide second option in this series for the Heat to have a chance.

So, sit back, relax and enjoy the nonstop drama that is the NBA Playoffs. Where amazing happens…
