NBA Season, Playoffs & Finals; Your take?

[Gym Leader Fern]

I am very curious as to who the Miami Heat is going to face in the Finals.
I'm just assuming they're going based on the fact that they sort of dominate everyone else, still don't like them however.
I thought it was going to be up to the other LA team, the Clippers, but they surprisingly fell to Memphis.
I'm now rooting for Golden State, being a California native.

So who are you guys going for?

I want to see the Miami Heat lose so I can see Chris Bosh cry like a ***** & spit in their fan's faces. I'm thinking, how does Chi-Town with D. Rose out the game, still manage to beat Lebron, Wade, & Bosh on their own homecourt? If that ain't embarrassment, I don't know what is.

Really? Miami lost to a Chicago team without 3 of it's best players and you think they are going to just roll into the finals that easily? I know Miami destroyed Chicago today but the first game said something. Chicago won in Miami without Rose, Deng and Hinrich which gives chicago the advantage because now they just need to win their home games and they are through.

And I'm don't see how Memphis beating the Clippers is that big of a surprise. Memphis have a great all-round team and defensively could handle the Clippers. Tony Allen would help slow down CP3 and then Griffin and Jordan would have to try and get past Gasol and Randolph.

As to my prediction, it kills me to say this because I'm an OKC fan but I think the spurs will take it out this year. Our year is pretty much gone without Westbrook. I'm still going for OKC 100% but I struggle to seee us playing well enough enough without that consistent second scoring option.

I think I'm happy for any team that isn't Miami to win. I have a feeling they're gonna storm it though, with that game against Chicago being somewhat of an anomaly.

The Warriors winning or Durant carrying the Thunder would be good feel good stories. My ideal outcome would be the Spurs taking it all.

I'm hoping for the David Stern's Nightmare of NBA Finals (Memphis vs. Indiana) but I'm expecting it to be Memphis vs. Miami. OKC is lucky they're not down 2-0 and I don't see the winner of San Antonio/Golden State (especially San Antonio) giving Memphis any issues. The only way I see any team coming out of the East that isn't Miami is if Knicks/Pacers is done in 5 AND Chicago manages to drag Miami all the way to 7 (with bonus points if they injure one of Miami's Big 2.5).

Ugh, God... Miami are steamrolling.

Lebron says "I've never flopped".


Does he have an inner-ear problem or something? Either he's flopping or his balance is all fucked up.
