Voting was done by the league’s head coaches, who were asked to select five players for the First Team and five for the Second Team, regardless of position.
This is truly a conundrum for me picking who’d I’d like to see win this series. I wish their was a way for them to eliminate each other and we go straight to the Finals.
So, if I have to pull for a team, it’s the Cavs. I’ve not made it a secret that I don’t care for the Celtics. I don’t like the Cavs either but they’re the lesser of two evils in this case. I also find myself pulling for Ben Wallace. In addition I’d like to see the Pistons get a measure of payback against the Cavs en route to the Finals.
It’s not that as a Pistons fan I fear the Celtics, just the opposite. I think they’d be a better matchup for us than the Cavs. I just want them to GO AWAY. It’s just too much too soon. I’m sick of their ESPN commercials. I’m sick off all the promos with Garnett shouting/jersey popping/chest pumping/basket-support head butting. I’m sick of their loose gums and faux tough guy ways. I’m sick of them period.
Last night’s game was entertaining. I love the fact that the front running Celtics can’t get it done on the road in the Playoffs. I felt weird getting pumped when LeBron threw down the windmill jam on Mr. DPOY Kevin Garnett, but it was pretty sweet.
