Early Finals Prediction

They have a great chance (better than anyone IMO) of taking down the Heat. But if Wade is healthy.....I just don't see it.

You're also the biggest Lebron homer on this board, so expect that ;)
 
If Lance Stephenson and Big Roy step up to the challenge, Miami simply will not win.

I think Lebron is getting more comfortable with his role now and he will be even better this time around now that he has all that experience under his belt. Before he had that awkwardness of who's team was it and who was the leader and closer. He has clearly passed Wade in that Dept now. I can see him putting petal to the metal this time around and not let it come down to the last shot.

Lebron is the favorite to win it all until further notice. Even as good as Durant is playing, I dont think it matters much. We have seen him shut down Durant in the finals before. He'll shut down George or Lance too.
 
Lets remind ourselves that Lebron was a freak-rebound, and an unbelievable Ray Allen-three (off a grotesque shot from 'Bron, I might add) from losing the playoffs to an aged Spurs core, after having their asses handed to them by Roy Hibbert (and his team with zero bench)

True, but every champion has relied on a little luck.

Jordan got a ton of generous calls and had many lucky things go his way. Not to mention he cheated with his push off on Russell.
 
I vehemently disagree. A healthy Thunder is too tough for anyone out west.

I agree.

The Spurs suck against good teams. Portland has basically no playoff experience and are kinda bad defensively. Clippers and Rockets are such pretenders.

Honestly, I could see a OKC/GS West Finals happening.

The games are gonna be really fun. The offenses are going to be insane. Kinda meh on most of the defense, but should make for some good up-and-down action.
 
Kevin Durant is the biggest mismatch I've EVER seen in basketball. EVER. It's like impossible to guard him. He can only beat himself.

...well, then you've never seen Wilt Chamberlin or Kareem Abdul Jabbar! I will say this, though. Durrant is a better shooter than Stephen Curry!!!
