I can predict the winner of this series. Rebounding and 3 point shooting is the key. Whichever team gives up the most penetration will lose most of the games. Then coaching is going to be very critical

Don't why I'm so jack for this series.

I guess I don't like both teams and want to see a loser come out of it. Its gonna be bitter sweet in the end.

I'll watch maybe 30 min total of this series... I'm really not that interested and I think the Heat are going to steam roll the Spurs, although I don't really care a whole lot...
If it goes to 7, maybe I'll watch the last half of that game... Otherwise, I'm just waiting for free agency.

Spurs. I prefer the west coast over Miami/Boston/NYK/Bkn. Other east teams would be case by case depending on the season.

Mike Greenberg thinks the Spurs from 1999-2013 is a greater dynasty than the 1980-1991 Lakers? That's not even mentioning the Bulls. Dummy.

Kobe fans probably don't want to see the Spurs win again because another ring could possibly put Duncan over Kobe in the all time rankings if he already isn't.

Kobe fans are also jealous of Lebron and don't want him to keep winning rings... torn

Doesn't really matter all that much IMO. Just hope to see a competitive series and both teams performing at a high level.

Got tons of respect for Timmy and LeBron, so not against either of them winning.

Wade, not so much.

I can agree with most of this. The only thing that really tips the scales for me is I like Pop.

I'm pretty sure pop is going to hack a shaq Birdman.
I haven't seen anyone try it in the playoffs yet on him.

Also since Bosh and Wade havent done much Pop will probably be going to be doubling Lebron to put the ball in someone else's hand.

I look forward to this series.
I think someone mentioned this already, but the series will depend on how well the Spurs 3's fall.

That long rest the Spurs have gotten will really come in handy.

Pop is going to try to get his guys to play as physical as possible with the big three, but I'm not sure they have the matchups...

I think it's a 6 game series for Miami, with SA getting 2 and 5.

I think there is mutual respect between the Spurs and the Lakers. I remember in the 2003 playoffs when the Spurs beat the Lakers, the Spurs players were starting to celebrate at teh Staples Center and Pops told them to cut it out and give respect to the 3 time champions. They battled each other hard over the last decade or so.

F*ck Miami, tho.

How does that make you better than the Lin, Gallo, and Wil fans who root for them over NY?

I do not care who wins because any team that wins will be annoying. Bron will have 2 and will be compared to MJ and Kobe will be forgotten. Or Duncan will have five and Shaq will be forgotten. Parker will probably be right behind Magic too if he gets the finals mvp. This is annoying to Lakers fans.
