    I gotta go with the Mavs.

    Its just hate the fact that that EVERYONE just automatically thought the Heat were going to win it all when they picked up Bosh + James. Im against the whole "mega team" concept.

    The Mavs have been much more solid and composed throughout the season/Playoffs IMO too.

    Dallas in 6.

    heat in 7

    they play a mean defense, and the mavs will be a little too emotional i think

    Emotional? The Mavs a veteran team. If anything, I think they will keep their composer longer than Miami.

    Also, Wade has really been struggling as of late. That could potentially be a factor if he doesn't get his groove back.

    i think the emotion will come from the rematch with miami, the chance at redemption...once it starts slipping away, i predict a meltdown.

    that being said, i would love for the mavs to crush the heat in 4, i hate the fucking heat

    Lol, agreed.

    Although I hate Dirk too. I just find him to very annoying player. Plus the Mavs are a rival of the Grizzlies which is my favorite team. :P

    And you know, Im not much of a conspiracy theorist, but I have a feeling the Heat making the Finals was somewhat impacted by the league. In virtually all of the Heat Playoff games I've watched this year, the refs have really seemed to like Miami. Take last night's game for example. They called that flagrant on Boozer and then ALL the whistles seemed to be favoring the red jerseys.

    I've always thought the NBA is fixed.

    Well, not only that, I think the league knows who they want to win and who they want to lose and they impact the outcome of season's by manipulating the schedule and the officiating.

    I mean, the NBA is a multi-BILLION dollar entertainment market. Do you really think they "play fair"? Miami and the "big 3" in the Finals is going to draw in more viewers, and thus, more money.
