yup yup

No way I win this thing. not with Dallas in my finals and all the damn first round sweeps.

I nailed one series and completely blew the other.

That said, if Houston makes the run I expect them to, I'm in damn good shape.

I'm the only guy that even has Houston in my final 4. If they go to the finals, I have this thing locked up.

I missed a bunch by a game (I gave Orlando a game, who knows why. I gave Washington a game)

Washington might still win a game. Cleveland has already tried to give them a win twice.

I have the Cavs in 4, so of course I'm rooting for them tonight.

DBTM is on a roll here too.

my bracket is shaping up really, really good despite the miami blunder, and Dallas's impending collapse...

I have a very good chance to nail perfect scores on at least 4 series and possibly two more.

This first round has been so weird, I can't imagine too many people got it exactly right. Especially Dallas...

Go suns. I can smell first place...

As someone else that didn't have the Mavs in the Finals (Suns) I'm also quite pleased.

I didn't even have the Mavs in the western conference finals. I couldn't be happier.

How happy will you be if the Jazz win game 7?

Just messing with you.

No, that's right.

My entire bracket hinges on Houston/Utah game 7. The difference between me picking up another 20 points and me losing an NBA finalist.

I'm confident in Houston, since they're at home.

I'm hosed with Dallas in the finals. I guess now I root for the Warriors to make the finals.

I suck, GSW to my Dallas prediction. Go Pistons!!!

As long as SA and our boys make it to the Finals, I'm straight.

So Dallas over Houston this round is really going to pay off for me...

Yeah, I think my pick of Utah to the confrence finals looks pretty damn good right now. Too bad I can't guess any of the games right.

I'm not giving up yet, though. I have Suns in 7 (Fuck a Stern), Pistons in 7 and Cavs in 6 still in play this round.

Glenn, you might get your Cavs in 6, though I think the Pistons might wise up and take care of the Bulls in 6. Even though every ounce of logic in me says we'll get our butts handed to us tomorrow night on Chicago, I think we'll find a way to win it. This team just seems too good to throw away what should be theirs.

Not to burst Glenn's bubble, but I have Cavs in 6 and Pistons in 6.

Sorry Glenn. Even you probably hope for the latter part of that prediction. If it takes the Cavs 7 to win, I won't lose much sleep over it.

Well I missed this contest but here was my final 4 that I picked before it started.

Bulls,Nets,Nuggets,Rockets <<-- LMAO

and Bulls vs Nuggets in the Finals :)
