I think Miami can give the Cavs a bigger scare. I think Wade's explosiveness, and some surprisingly good performances from a few of their players in the first round, is more dangerous than Atlanta.

I regard Atlanta as the better team, but I think the games against Cleveland will be close until late on when Cleveland consistently find an extra gear to pull away from them. I'd expect a short series.

I dont think it will really matter cause the Cavs will run over either easily...Wade vs Lebron would be a great cap to both teams season though.

DWade is the type of player who can take over a playoff series...but up against Lebron, I doubt he gives them a 6 game series.
Atlanta is obviously the more rounded team and I think would be a better match up against the Cavs.

I still see the Celtics in the NBA finals though.

Clev will trounce Miami if Wade isn't at full strength.

Atlanta, in my opinion, and no doubt about it.

At the very least J-Smooth has the right body type to go against Lebron, and if noting else him, zaza and horford could make life a little hard for him.

Miami's got no answer for LBJ, and no chance.
