It'll be strange to see the defending NBA champs eliminated in the first round but it's going to happen.
The Rockets have the better regular-season record but are not going to take the Jazz. Utah has an advantage at every position besides #2. Plus I think Mutumbo was considered a veteran in the NBA when Ronnie Brewer was born.
The Celtics will be rested and will win without the level of battle-testing prevalent in the West. The Pistons will give them a decent fight but not enough to wear them out.
