Zach Lowe had a nice little section in his last podcast about the Lebron VS MIA possibility. From 2:40 to 8:40. I’d love it if ABC just used this in the pregame show.

the Rondo/Herro matchup off the bench is going to be so fun to watch. Playoff Rondo vs a kid with absolutely no fear for the moment.

AD vs Bam

LeBron for Jimmy

so really good matchups. If Bam gets into any foul trouble the Heat are in trouble with no front line depth.

President of Mensa? He’s really good but I don’t think he’s that great. If you tell me I can pick Bam or him, I sleep on it. If you tell me any Celtic, I might nap on it.

Lakers win in 5 or 6.

The zone is nice against the teams they've played, but a skilled big like AD is going to shred it. And if they go man to man, they'll have to put Bam on AD which will give LeBron a layup line, Rockets tried to play zone against them too. The Lakers defense has put the clamps on much better offensive teams too.

It hurts how many players I like on the heat and still hope they lose miserably.

I really don't like the Lakers or Heat franchises. But to me from a rooting perspective this is Rondo and AD vs Bam and Herro, and I'm pulling for the older guys in Rondo and AD as Bam and Herro still have their whole lives ahead of them. But I will be glad to see a couple UK players get rings. Especially Rondo who has been my favorite player for a long ass time and I want to sneak into the hall of fame

I wouldn't count Miami out though. LeBron has a reputation for choking in the finals

I just can’t stand Lebron. I’ll always root against him. Past rivalries don’t mean much to me anymore cause the Knicks are a joke.

Not only the flopping, but Lebron gets away with fouling. Just the other day he was fouling Murray blatantly and then bragged about “locking him down”. Nah I can’t rock with that. I’m rooting for the Heat even if they have a slim chance of winning
