If any of the matchups happen at Cincy, I am going to guess:
Federer beat Nadal in 3 really tough sets
Federer beats Djokovic in 2 fairly competitive but solid sets
Djokovic beats Nadal in 3 tough sets
Federer beat Nadal in 3 really tough sets

Djokovic beats Nadal in 3 tough sets

Well.........
I am not saying that Rafa cannot do it, but he will have a very tough time of it. He will have to get through Youzhny or Querry, then most likely Blake, and then through either Roddick, Berdych or Mathieu, just to make the semi. All who will be looking for revenge.
This is not going to easy on Rafa's bad knee and arm. I also think it could hurt his chances at the Open this year, if he wears himself down. However, I know his heart is up to it.

well, Cinci is a very fast court. I don't put my bet on Nadal making the final.

Semi-Pro
yeah cinci is a VERY fast court. I have my money on nadal making the quarters or semis at best
From what I have heard, about 10% faster. Making it almost impossible for anyone, including Nadal, Djokovic, or Federer, to chase down flat shots down the line. I think you will see the "winners" shot chart go up remarkably in this tournament.

Cinci is fast but higher bouncing than Montreal because of the heat. I say Nadal will like Cinci more because of that.
I am serious. Nadal will be out in his 2nd match if he plays against a healthy Youzhny. If Youzhny is injured or not playing then Nadal will be taken out by Blake or Gonzo. If somehow none of those 3 guys play Nadal then Nadal will lose in the semi. Unless by some miracle he is playing Ferrer in the semi. So anyway I say Nadal will be out in his 2nd or 3rd match.

Haha, true. Imagine if Djokovic loses in the early rounds, we'll be subject to a week of "Novak Sux" threads for about a week or so!

The rankings would still be the same, regardless. Federer still has way too much of a lead over Nadal to be decided by a MS event, same with the gap between Nadal and Djokovic. If this were to happen at a slam however, Nadal would take over #1, Federer would become #2 and Djokovic would remain #3, this is taking the current rankings points into consideration.

Semi-Pro
#1 Federer
#2 Nadal
#3 Djokvic
#4 Davydenko
#5 Roddick
The only change would be Davydenko taking the #4 spot from Roddick because Roddick won last year and would thus lose points. Federer, Djokovic, and Nadal would all actually gain points because they lost in the second round (Roger and Novak!) and quarters respectively.
The bottom line is: The gap in points between Federer and Nadal and the gap in points between Nadal and Djokovic is too large to be decided by a masters series event, where the maximum points awarded is 700.
