Clipps in 7, this will be a good series.

[Darth Thanatos]

Clippers in 6.

Better guards, slightly better big men, better bench.

[Anthony]

This series is going to be fun. Best 1st round match up IMO. This and the Cavs-Wiz series, its gonna be a barn burner (did I really just say that?)

[MoTown]

I might be alone here, but I actually see the Nuggets winning this one. They've at least been in the playoffs before. The Clippers have not. And I'll take George Karl over Bumleavey any day.

[Glenn]

This is one of the most even matchups, IMO.

I think it's going 7.

In the end, Melo cracks like an egg and "Big Game" Sam Cassell delivers to Clips to the 2nd round.

[MOLA1]

YES!!!!!!!!!

THE MOMENT HAS ARRIVED!!!!!!!

MY 2ND FAVORITE TEAM IS IN THE PLAYOFFS!!!!!!!!

THAT'S WHY I TYPE IN CAPS LOCK!!!!


GO CLIPPERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WIN A SERIES!!!!!!!!!!

I agree with Glenn

[Artis Gilmore]

Mobley and Ross are gonna hound Melo, and the nuggz dont have a good SG to back him up. I think Patterson can shut down Mobley but the clipps have too many other options. And Kenyon is playing hurt. I think Marcus Camby will have a good series, but Chris Kaman could give him a hard time because he's a great rebounder.


Any one know if maggette is gonna play?

[metr0man]

i'll be rooting for the Clips, just for the novelty of the clippers winning a playoff series.
