    If MIA trades Wade, we totally need to get on that.

    A 31 year-old on a max deal with an ego the size of HCP's girth? no thanks.

    But seriously, I'd pass.

    Don't forget how injury prone he is. I'd trade for him but not for the price he is going to be had for.

    The Spurs are a fucking machine. The WCF with OKC is going to be a war, but I don't see anyone beating SA 4 games out of 7 and that includes Miami.

    I love seeing the refs not buying the blatant flops from CP3 and Griff.

    I am pulling for SA (and Indiana) but I bet the Clippers win both in LA. I still think some of these young SA players will get a little tight on the road when they are shooting their 3's.

    Right now Miami isn't looking like a lock for the Finals.

    This Celtic/Sixer game is painful to watch.

    Jordan won his third title on a shot by Paxson and his fifth title on a shot by Steve Kerr.

    Just the other day, you said the league wouldn't allow any team other than the Heat to reach the Finals out of the East. You said OKC/Miami was a lock.

    I take back everything I said about this Sixer/Celtic game. Wow.

    Philadelphia really impressed me. They really share the ball and play great as a team. And they hustle to rebounds and loose balls.

    And for the next come from behind winner, I present to you the OKC Thunder. I'm at a huge bar in Valencia and people are going nuts. I can't wait to watch them leave quietly stunned.

    I honestly didn't think any team in the east was good enough to beat the Heat in a 7 game series.

    Well, that's a different thing. Saying that the Heat is too good is one thing. Saying that the league will make sure they win is another. Heat may still go to the Finals but it won't be because "the fix is in."

    I question Fisher's allegiance. He gift-wrapped a 4-0 run for the Lakers.

    The two bullshit calls on Harden against Kobe was the difference going down the stretch. (both calls away from the ball) OKC was up with the momentum, and Kobe hooked him and sold it. The Ref knew better but he called it anyway.
