Yeah, I do believe Dallas was the better team. They BEAT Miami and proved it. They "played a better series" because they were the better team. Don't ask LeBitch for change for a dollar, cuz the prick's only gonna give ya 3 quarters.

And still celebrating...



I would love it to be the Mavs again 4-0 HEAT.

Fuggit, I'm gonna go so far as to say that Miami gets upset and doesn't even MAKE the ****ing Finals. Yeah, I said it.

1. Miami Heat
2. Oklahoma City Thunder
3. Dallas Mavericks
4. Los Angeles Clippers
5. Chicago Bulls

6. San Antonio
7. New York

Horrible list.

The Clippers are becoming one of those unbearably overrated teams that is going to get their ass handed to them in the playoffs by a veteran led team. I'm predicting it right now. They'll make it to the second round, but if they face a team like the Mavs they'll be going fishing. They're a second round playoff team at this point. If they get lucky, depending on matchups, they can make the WCF, but that won't be a respectable WCF, it'll be like a Utah Jazz Deron/Boozer type of WCF where they'll really have no chance against their opponent.

New York is not better than teams like Indiana, Philly, Atlanta. Sorry. I know they're the flavor of the week, but just because Jeremy Lin is legit it doesn't mean the rest of the team is.

As for the Mavericks being better than the Bulls, I've said it before. If the Mavericks get their act together then I do think they can get deep into the playoffs again, but at the moment, I like the Bulls over the Mavs.

The underrating on the Bulls here is laughable.

I'm not crowning us the champs, but we're better than the ****ing Clippers, who have had the most lax schedule in the league for the first half of the season (and the Bulls still have the better record, despite having had the most condensed schedule in the league, along with the Lakers, for the first half of the season).

Like I said before, only two teams I have no qualms being put over us are the Heat obviously and the Thunder (even though I still put us above the Thunder).

[QUOTE=BlackNRed;6768758]How is that a "Most Likely?" Lmao.

Somebody has short term memory loss. Let me remind you what happened last time. Bulls fans should just not talk until something good happens for them against Miami.

How is that a most likely? Um, because I believe, like last year, Chicago will have a better record than the heat. Short term memory? I never said the Bulls beat the heat in brush playoffs. All I said was they did, and most likely will, have homecourt again.

Hopefully, they get healthy for the playoffs. I think the Bulls have had their starting back court play a combined 5 games together all year. I have the heat as the favorites to make the finals, but I wouldn't write off Chicago.

Who cares what you say, get in the back of the line. The haters could circle the globe (twice) and it still wouldn't matter. Unless you plan to sneak a sniper rifle into the arena and pick off LeWade give it up.

I'll be sure to bump this thread when we win it all this year, so keep talking.

Last year Miami started like 9-8, and were loaded were plagued by injury throughout the year. Much different set of circumstances. Looks like the Bulls caught the injury bug a bit this year, so again I ask, how is that a most likely? Heat are in first place.

And I'll be sure to bump this thread when the Heat are unexpectedly eliminated.

I don't know why you'd brag about that, Boston may well not even make the playoffs and are at the end of the road. Enjoy the empty black and yellow seats, and a lonely parquet floor like before u acquired your big 3. If there's as big of a bandwagon town as Miami, it's Boston lmao.

If that's true, what's that say about yourself then as a fan of the Heat? I've been a fan of the Boston Celtics since 1994. So yeah, hardly a "band-wagoner" here. I know Boston won't win another Championship before the Big 3 are disbanded.... But one is better then none!

Hey, how many rings does your boy LeBitch have, by the way?

blew your opportunity here - not 'one is better than none' more like '17 is better than none(or 1 if you want to give him the benefit of the doubt vis-a-vis band waggoning)'

Fans like you are a perfect example of why everyone hates Miami.

Talking about since the grouping of Pierce/KG/Ray, they've won 1. Which is better than what Wade & James have accomplished so far. Until those two twats get two together (Wade obviously already has one) I'll not think they're worth a shit.

They've got plenty of time to do it, but I'll laugh my balls off if they fail to win even one in their time together. And was it me, or did both of them look like ass-buddies tonight with their matching nerd glasses? They were also sitting pretty close to one another too....

I am still dumfounded how people can continue to have such venomous hate toward LeBron and not be Cleveland fans. It just does not any sense at all.
