I think This series comes down to two things.

1. D-wade's health
2. Heat bigs being able to handle Randolph/Gasol.

I'd say Lebron had a better line up with him. The Thunder fed on Westbrook's game, he gave that team energy. I hate when people say Lebron had a terrible line up, they weren't amazing but they...

Duncan has never played with people like Smush Parker either. Don't act as if Ducan has played with scrubs during his career. I mean he played with the likes of David Robinson, Parker, Ginobli, and...

Didn't Baron Davis also have knee problems?

This.

I thought it was pretty predictable that the Lakers would make it and Utah wouldn't, just looking at their records. 75% of PSD said they wouldn't make it, 90% said it after kobe got injured.

Ill be rooting for both the lakers and spurs, I hope T-mac actually gets some good playing time :D

My heart was broken when I heard kobe would be out of the playoffs..... BUT now T-mac has a chance to win a title?!!?!??! sweeeeeet.

I would disagree, they wouldn't be in the playoffs without him. I would say at least 5 in a half rings ;)

German re-engineering ofc.

That is a terrible argument considering that they built the whole team around him. Same thing happened when Shaq left and the lakers had chris mimn and kwame brown to replace that huge gap.

Are you serious? Lakers have always dominated them.

Lakers are looking forward to play the spurs anyways, even thoughThunder are worse without harden... they don't have an answer for Westbrook or...

They rely on Lebron way too much so no. It is like when Shaq left the lakers, they sucked not only because Shaq was so dominate, but they built their team around him. I mean going from Shaq to Chris...

I am definitely not saying that the streak is weak or that it needs an * by it. I am just stating that it is ridiculous how Heat fans will say that they have much more competition. Congrats to the...

I am talking about the team records of today vs then.

Just looking at the records, the western conference that the west had to go against is way better than the east that the Heat has to face.

Michael Jordan also had tons of fans outside of chicaco, the difference was that back then there were real rivalries. Players were not bffs with each other and fans were loyal because of that.

+1

Just scored 42 tonight so yeah he is definitely bad.

I think out of all the 500 steroid threads, this one might make the most sense. This guy rages like a beast.

LBJ is probably taking the good stuff which doesn't give you all of these effects.

He was better than Kobe offensively for 1-2 years, but Kobe was always better defensively. Injuries and work ethic were probably the reasons why T-Mac wasn't a great defensive player.

seriously?

I remember that gamewinner, I was ordering gyros :(

twas a nice shot though

I never said Orlando was the best team in the NBA, I am just laughing that OP said that Orlando was a terrible team, yet Lebron still lost to them. They were a good team, and almost unbeatable if...

Kobe carried Smush Parker, Chris Mihm, and Kwame Brown to the playoffs. Today Kobe is carrying his team even with all the Injuries. Did you not see Nash out for a few months, Dwight has been playing...

Did you forget about the mighty Spurs, Kings, Trailblazers, and other teams that the lakers had to beat to get to the Finals. From what I recall, Lebron had to go through chumps like Atlanta,...
