"his season, the Sonics ranked 18th in the NBA with a $53 million payroll. Of the teams still in the playoffs, Phoenix ($46 million), San Antonio ($47 million) and Detroit ($52 million) have smaller salary demands."

Our payroll is double those!

Man, Im leaving the country for a week and going in to the jungle! No playoffs!

I was so looking forward to both these series.

My heart goes with PHX, but logic goes with Obi-Won Ginobili and the Spurs.

Heat can beat Detroit if shaq is 80%, but Pistons are so resiliant I have to go with them.
