Default Round 1 Game 7\'s tonight: Indiana/Boston, Houston/Dallas

I want an upset, so I've got Indi taking out the Celtics on their homecourt. The C's will be energized by the crowd, but the Pacers defense will clamp down and the Celtics will kill themselves with bonehead mistakes. Reggie provides the 4th quarter dagger with some clutch shooting. Maybe just wishful thinking there.

I'm pulling for a Houston win, but I've got the Mavs winning game 7 at home. Yao has yet to show the killer instinct that he needs to compete in these high pressure games, and like it or not, T-Mac has still not proven himself. His shooting has been ridiculously good all series, regression to the mean is going to start setting in. Dirk has played game 7's before, and he has won game 7's before. He knows how to step up to the challenge. He's also due for a monster game. I predict a close game, but a dominating performance from Nowitzki.
