Rose for MVP.

and 1-10 vs. the top teams

Calls go both ways. Heat got a lot of calls earlier in the game because it's in Miami. Bottom line: Heat lose again to a good team.

He was fouled. There's no getting around it.

[italstallianion]

And they have the Lakers 2 games from now. They need to figure things out and fast.

[Palodios]

Wow, what a great end to the game. The Heat played some serious defense that 4th quarter, but they just couldn't finish it out at the end of the game.

They are failing expectations that much...

[Palodios]

I can't believe that the Celtics seem to be running away with the East. If the Lakers beat the Spurs in the Western Conference Finals, they could hold home-court advantage throughout the playoffs.

 

And on another note-- I blame this loss solely on the lack of Big Z. He played 13 minutes, and see how much closer it was than the game against the Spurs?

SI Kids said in their NBA preview that their age would show and they wouldn't win the confrence.

As a Spurs fan, I honestly think that the Celtics would be better off facing the Spurs in the finals, even if they don't have home court advantage, than to have them face the Lakers in the finals with home court advantage.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

The Spurs are a good team but damn they are boring as hell to watch.

[suns]

I might be a little bias but if the suns get the 8 seed and the spurs get the 1 seed I think the suns can beat them

I'll still take it.

I don't see it. Maybe if Mike D'Antoni and Amare Stoudemire were still there, and even then I wouldn't bet on it. The Spurs have a great record vs. the Suns in the playoffs, and the Suns lose to the Spurs in the playoffs as often as the Spurs lose to the Lakers.

 

There are a few teams I'm worried about in the playoffs, mainly the Lakers and to a lesser extent the Mavericks, but I'm not worried about the Suns.

As a Celtics fan, I definitely think they'd be better off against the Spurs as well. But, Lakers Celtics Finals are always amazing, and I want to witness that once in my lifetime. Spurs-Celtics isn't as exciting, although a Shaq-Duncan matchup could be a heckuva lot of fun.

 

Edit: By witness, I mean that I plan on going to the finals if that matchup pops up.

[italstallianion]

Well for me, the Spurs and the Celtics are my two favourite NBA teams, so that'd be my ideal finals. Plus it would guarantee that either one would win, and it would guarantee that the Heat and the Lakers won't win. That's pretty much all I can ask for from the NBA.

[Flynnatic10]

Lakers are killing the Spurs, WTF.

[italstallianion]

Yeah, I stopped watching. Oh well, can't beat a good team like the Lakers everytime. Now our schedule looks to get a bit easier with Detroit and Sacramento coming up.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

A hot lakers team soon to face a cold heat team. It's gonna get ugly when they play.

[italstallianion]

An interesting stat, Bosh, Wade, and LeBron are a combined 1-18 shooting when their team is down by 3 points or less in the final 10 seconds of games.

[suns]

I'm guessing Lebron was the one crying after the game

[Palodios]

Fun fact-- in Cleveland Lebron's team was 61-21. This year, his team is already 43-20.

I see why they had Miller shoot the three against Boston the last time.
