i think this also. This would be a pretty good breakdown for the Blazers. HCA against the ailing Spurs, and then in the second round (knock on wood) we would go up agianst LA after they finish a physical series against the Jazz. Best would be to somehow be the third seed giving us a shot at two slightly easier rounds, but this break down works also. Just keep us away from the Rockets.

Not to mention that this is a pretty bad draw for the Lakers. The Jazz are not a great matchup for them (I think they would rather face the Mavs), and then they either face a Veteran Spurs team or a Blazer team that is in their head a little bit in the Second Round.

The D-League is trying something new this season with matchups. The first seed gets to choose their competition. I think this is a pretty interesting way to do it. I guarantee that the Lakers would not be selecting the Jazz over the the Maverics or the Hornets.

I think we'll be facing Houston in the 1st round with HCA. Houston ends their season on the road against Dallas, and that should be a loss for them.

1 Lakers
2 Denver
3 San Antonio
4 Portland
5 Houston
6 Dallas
7 New Orleans
8 Utah

2nd round

1 Lakers
4. Blazers

uh.....you know we would probably be ahead of san antonio to with the tie breaker. unless you have them winning out, and us losing a game

I have to revise my list. I thought the division winners got positions 1-3, but they changed that rule a year ago. I think San Antonio will lose at least one more game, on the road against Golden State, as they will be coming off a back to back. And I do think Portland will win the rest of their games.

1- Lakers
2- Denver
3- Portland
4- Houston
5- San Antonio
6- Dallas
7- New Orleans
8- Utah
