Once Again - It's On!



It's playoff time in the NBA again, and this year the Suns first round opponent will be a familiar one - the hated rival Los Angeles Fakers. The Suns are hoping for a quick series in order to prepare for a possible matchup against the tough San Antonio Spurs in the second round. In case you forgot about last year's matchup - these two teams met in a hard fought seven game series that included the following:

The Grim Raper throwing elbows

Raja's retaliation

Officials stealing a game from the Suns

Luke Walton playing dirty

The emergence of Leandro Barbosa

Tim Thomas saving the season

The Suns fighting back down 3-1

The Grim Raper quitting on his teammates in game 7



Now...I'm hoping that this series doesn't have quite all that excitement. In fact, a 4 game sweep would be nice.

Honestly though, I think the Fakers may win one game. But that's it. The Suns are better in every aspect of the game than the Fakers (except throwing elbows).

I can't wait until Sunday.
