east coast has always been a joke.. but this year west coast has been terrible except top three... same with the east.. I love phil thas the only reason y i root for LA.. i don't hate Kobe matter of fact i was a huge fan of his.. but then tables have turned... theres no way he can play with these guys that hes got and manage to pull upset there bro... its tough... Nash and them boys are a lil too fast for LA... I think.. but what do i know? Detroit... i hope Nets take care of them.. i wanna see jason kidd goin out with atleast a ring.. if they can play like they played the past 14 games before last week, they will be tough.. how 'bout them wizards?? they are 3 and 0 against pistons in regular season... could they do something?? lol
