2009 NBA Playoffs: My Conference Finals Preview

Western Conference
Denver Nuggets vs. Los Angeles Lakers
The Nuggets cruised by Dallas in 5, while the Lakers struggled with the Rockets, squeaking by in 7. Both teams can put up a lot of points, with the advantage with the Nuggets on the perimeter and the Lakers in the paint. I think it'll come down to each team's bench, with the Nuggets' bench being deeper and the Lakers' bench struggling.
Nuggets in 7
Eastern Conference
Orlando Magic vs. Cleveland Cavaliers
The Magic clawed past the defending champion Celtics in 7, while the Cavs swept Atlanta and are still unbeaten in the postseason. It'll be interesting to see how Cleveland responds to the 9 day layoff between games, whether it's rest or rust. Dwight Howard could have a big series, but the Cleveland guards and depth will more than account for him. Oh yeah, and also there's a #23 who won some MVP award who will not be stopped in this series.
