Heat in 6. It'd be nice for Duncan to go out on top but between Parker maybe hurt and Wade maybe healthy, idk if they can get it done.
Also assumes that Diaw doesn't shut down Bron, Green doesn't start off on historic shooting, and that Kawhi doesn't look as awesome as he looked this past series.

I just want to celebrate one last time at 49th street with all the ratchet pots and pans, old cuban men, and hot latina ratchet women
just embrace lebron as your lord and savior
what doesn't kill him only makes him stronger, saiyan blood

Heat in 6. I have to vote that way because I love the team. But I think this one will be hard fought if not lost. Timmy was all "We are gonna get it done this time".
I wonder how serious Tony Parker's injuries are. He had a nagging hamstring problem last year but that didnt stop him at all.
Can someone change the shitty ass thread title? It's so bland. What is this crap? ESPN? An NBA commercial?
Change it to:
|OT| NBA Payoffs Coming to an End, So Are Knees, Careers and Egos
|OT| Silver is the 2nd best currency. Ballmer Dollars Supreme
|OT| Stephenson Blows Wade's Knees Out, Pays Flop Fine
|OT| Best vs Least

...It'll be changed as soon as someone suggests a better one.
OKC was capable of playing some ferocious, high intensity D with their athletes being as long and fast as they were. Im thinking of games 3 & 4 specifically when Westbrook's defense was ridiculously disruptive. That definitely went some way to preparing San Antonio for Miami's defensive speed and pick& roll traps
I also think Westbrook and KD created more serious defensive problems for San Antonio than any Miami matchup will. Russ, KD and even Reggie Jackson were almost impossible to stop when they were in attack mode.
With Wade being older and slower and Bosh being a catch and shoot guy, LBJ is the only guy on Miami that San Antonio will struggle to contain.
Of course Miami's bench is considerably better than OKC's was. But I have to give the edge to San Antonio, OKC was their "nightmare" matchup with the incredible, explosive athletes on that team and they beat them in 6 games. The Heat just dont look to be as problematic for San Antonio with Bosh and Wade, two of the big three, not being as fearsome from an offensive standpoint.

Heat in 6. Parker's hobbled, Wade is not.It
It's an ankle injury. He will be perfectly fine with 4 days. Hamstring is more worrisome.
Any chance we migrate over to the new forums in time for the Finals?I'd love to say yes. But the truth is, we don't want to rock the boat now.
No point in finding out a bug wrecks the thread and it all imploding during the finals.
