Guest Slingshot Suplex Report post Posted April 18, 2003 I assume basketball's setup is the same as hockey.Highest seed remaining after the first round would play lowest seed. It can't be set up so that #1 and #2 in the conference play in the 2nd round..... redo your's Youth.......besides you don't even watch basketball . And Alyson's back?

Guest Max Danger Report post Posted April 19, 2003 Round One EASTERN CONFERENCE #1 Detroit vs #8 Orlando Winner: Detroit #2 New Jersey vs #7 Milwaukee Winner: New Jersey #3 Indiana vs #6 Boston Winner: Indiana #4 Philadelphia vs #5 New Orleans Winner: Philadelphia WESTERN CONFERENCE #1 San Antonio vs #8 Phoenix Winner: San Antonio #2 Sacramento vs #7 Utah Winner: Sacramento #3 Dallas vs #6 Portland Winner: Dallas #4 Minnesota vs #5 LA Winner: Los Angeles Conference Semi-Finals #1 Detroit vs. #4 Philadelphia Winner: Detroit #2 New Jersey vs. #3 Indiana Winner: New Jersey #1 San Antonio vs. #5 Los Angeles Winner: San Antonio #2 Sacramento vs. #3 Dallas Winner: Sacramento Conference Finals #1 Detroit vs. #2 New Jersey Winner: Detroit #1 San Antonio vs. #2 Sacramento Winner: Sacramento Finals Detroit vs. Sacramento Winner: Sacramento Kings The reason behind Los Angeles falling to the Spurs, is so that the King wouldn't have gotten past them to win the title. That would still be on their minds. So what if they won the title, they still weren't able to move on past LA. I'm cruel like that. Of course, I am a Dallas fan, and since they can't beat anyone higher than them(and might fall to Portland), I'm a bit bitter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
