Okay people, here's how it's going work. Each two days or so I'm gonna post up the results of each round. I'll make predictions for each round, and once everyone who wants to be involved makes their selection then I will post the results, and so on. As always, playoff settings are 5-5-5-5.

Points System:
If you pick the correct series outcome (winner & games won and lost) = 3 points
if you pick the correct team to advance = 1 point
if you pick wrong team = 0 points

Prize:
Winner gains the right to "demand a trade" meaning you can demand a trade, and if you wish, select your destination and I will work a "fair" trade for both teams involved. The winner's trade demand exemption is available until their rookie contract expires (another few seasons away). The baller who gets 2nd has the right to "request a trade" meaning that you can request a trade based on either "starting spot", "more minutes" or another request (if I deem it acceptable) and I will do my best to find you a situation that meets your request, and of course it will have to be a "fair" trade for both teams involved. The 2nd place's trade request exemption is available only in the upcoming 2007/08 season. If you're not an NLSC baller then I guess you get the satisfaction of winning :wink: and the highest 2 NLSC ballers will win the prizes.

Check out the playoff brackets below....

X's 1st ROUND PREDICTIONS:

Here is my 1st Round predictions. Please click on a team's name to go to their playoff roster. Note with my team, the Charlotte Bobcats, I will not play Melvin Ely, my playoff roster consists of Nene, and I will re-activate him once he is healthy.

WEST

(1) Sacramento defeats (8) LA Lakers 3-2

I think the backcourt of Kobe Bryant and Leo "Seraph" Reyes is going to give the Kings' fits on the defensive end, however in the end, the Kings' dominant frontcourt should make the difference with Brad Miller being the X-factor in this series.

(5) Houston defeats (4) Dallas 3-2

I also think that this will be another tight intra-state matchup. Mavs' swingmen Stackhouse and Daniels are nursing injuries but the series will be decided on the back of the team's superstars. Dirk for the Mavs and T-Mac for the Rockets, and can Dampier stop Yao? Rockets to take this one in 5.

(3) Minnesota defeats (6) Memphis 3-1

I just think that the T'wolves will have too much for the Grizzlies for some reason and win in 4.

(2) San Antonio defeats (7) Denver 3-1

Spurs are strong from top to bottom and really should have secured the No. 1 seed but fluttered late in the season. But this is the playoffs and I can't back against them. Spurs should win this one comfortably. I have them taking it in 4.


EAST

(1) Detroit defeats (8) Indiana 3-0

For all the history between these 2 teams, one would expect a tight matchup. Unfortunately for the Pacers, the Pistons are the superior team and will romp the Pacers in 3.

(5) Orlando defeats (4) Washington 3-1

Both teams have been up-and-down throughout the season, but it is time for Hill, Cat and Francis to finally have some playoff success. Magic in 4, and look out for the Melo-Sit NLSC matchup. Whose team will come out on top?

(3) New York defeats (6) Boston 3-1

Knicks just look too strong in this matchup of the Atlantic Division rivals. Knicks to advance comfortably in 4.

(7) Charlotte defeats (2) Miami 3-2

Now the series that could cause a boilover as I'm picking my Bobcats in 5 tough games. The key to this series is overcoming Nene's injury and containing Shaq. I'm expecting huge series from Okafor and Arenas, and in the end, I think that will be enough to advance to the 2nd Round.


Get your picks in guys....good luck and you'll need it....

BOBCATS PLAYOFF COVERAGE


ROUND 1 - (2) Miami Heat

Matched up against the No. 2 seeded Miami Heat, the Charlotte Bobcats definitely have their work cut out for them.


RECENT HISTORY:

Season Series: 1-1

April 7, 2007 - Charlotte 112 @ Miami 97 (SIMMED GAME)
April 14, 2007 - Charlotte 102 vs Miami 111 (HUMAN GAME)


Let's take a look at the positional battles that make this Southeastern divisional clash quite intriguing.


CENTRES: Guy Dumars vs. Shaquille O'Neal

One is one of the greatest to ever play the game. The other is hoping to make a name for himself in the league. This matchup is quite lopsided as Shaq still by all accounts, dominate this matchup. Physically, Shaq is far too strong for Dumars. This is probably the matchup that will decide the series and it is therefore important for Dumars to play Shaq tough on both ends of the court. If Dumars can keep Shaq honest and in check then the Bobcats are a really good chance in this series.

Verdict: Miami


FORWARDS: Emeka Okafor/Bobby Simmons vs. Brian Cook/Hakim Warrick

Whereas the Heat dominate the pivot, the Bobcats clearly dominate the rest of the frontcourt with All-Star Emeka Okafor and the improving Bobby Simmons at the 3. Each player has a significant advantage over their counterpaths Brian Cook and Hakim Warrick. The Bobcats' duo should be able to dominate this matchup, and should allow Okafor to help out more on Shaq.

Verdict: Charlotte


GUARDS: Marko Jaric/Gilbert Arenas vs. Eddie Jones/Dwayne Wade

The Arenas-Wade PG matchup is essentially a draw as both are star players at both ends of the court. Marko Jaric starts the series as the starting SG, but who knows for how long. It will depend on his ability to stick with Eddie Jones, who I have a feeling will explode during the series if he is not kept in check. Heat have slight upperhand in the guards in this series.

Verdict: Miami


BENCH:

Normally, this would easily be a huge advantage to the Bobcats with Nene, Van Exel and Walton being a better alternative than Damon Jones, Doleac and Dorrell Wright. However, with Nene injured for the better part of the series, this matchup is a lot closer. However, I expect ex-Heat forward Udonis Haslem to step up and I still think that the Bobcats' depth will help them immensely in this series, especially when Nene returns to the lineup.

Verdict: Charlotte


INTANGIBLES:

Nene's injury certainly helps the Heat's cause, however the Charlotte Bobcats are in the franchise's 1st ever playoff series and I have a feeling that this will help the team. On the Heat's side of the board, Shaq's career is winding down and he is looking to add one last championship ring to his illustrious career. Can Wade step up to the next level? What about Arenas and Okafor? And how about "That Guy" who is now on centre stage.

Verdict: Even


RESULT:

This series really could go either way, but my belief in this team to overcome adversity means I have to back them to move on to Round 2 of the playoffs.

Prediction: Bobcats win 3-2
