I was hoping that the cellist was going to take a hard left and go all Hendrix on the anthem.

At the end of the day Lakers will have 1 or 2 blowouts wins, Heat will have 1-2 blowout wins and there will be 2-3 close games decided between Jimmy and LeBron and my money is on the Heat and the Jimbo.

LeBron's ego won't allow AD to be the primary option and win the MVP. And that's the reason they will lose. Bam is a star but he is practically the lesser version of AD in anything but the heart. Bam is not soft. But he is worse in anything else.


Schrodinger's Anthony Davis, soft and unclutch but lebron must defer to him to win the championship :lol:

vogel is a dummy either have AD play center to start the game or you have to go down low to him every possession he has crowder on him because he literally had like a 6 inch adv in size.

I'd like to see Bron win another chip - but rooting for the rest of his team is really difficult.

Heat really can't play zone here

Rondo and LeBron are two really high IQ passers, and great passing is deadly to zone defenses.

The Heat are just built to beat the Lakers, they have a handful of guys who can all chip in double digit points. Butler, Herro, Bam or Robinson can all lead them in scoring any given night. Heat have the bodies to slow down Davis and LeBron. For the Lakers to win they're going to need playoff Rondo, Green and KCP to all step up. Davis and LeBron are still going to get theirs, just going to have to work harder for it than previous series.

It should be an exciting series to watch as these two teams battle, gun to my head I'd pick the Heat but it's really a toss up because Davis and LeBron can single handily win a game on their own.
Jazz: Under reconstruction, we'll be back.
