I actually agree with him too. (Obviously) outside a Bulls title, I would like nothing more than to see Duncan walk off into the proverbial sunset with as many rings as Kobe and not horribly fucking up his teams cap like Kobe has. He's been the best player of the past 15 years and one more ring would just further validate that.

I'm good with Duncan over Kobe. To me Duncan has four rings as the best player on his team, while KB has two.

Since we didn't clarify earlier on which it was, is our wager an avatar, sig, or both? I know we're both still confident so I was just checking.

Serge might help extend the series to 5 or 6, which is nice.

I assumed both. I need a change on both fronts...but of course that won't be happening as a result of this series.

Bingo. You cannot lose home court in game two and still expect to win the series against Miami.

Miami will earn a fourth trip to the Finals in four years...sigh. If they win this year, you will hear all this annoying talk about a LBJ-led dynasty next year. And unfortunately all that talk in 2010 about 'not two..not three..not four...not five...' rings will be revisited as well.

Ibaka 5-5 so far. Motherfuck. I've seen this movie before. I don't like the ending.

What's going in with TP? Is the hamstring acting up? I'm at work.

Well fuck. TP didnt look that bad the first couple games. They need to get their shit together. Abraham in an aerosol can, or something.

Yep. I feel like whoever wins game 4 will win the series. Regardless of who wins I hope it doesn't play out like that SA/NO 2nd round series from 2008 where it went 7 games and not one of them was close.

There are no Pacers fans in the crowd. But there are no Heat fans, either. Just former Laker fans & people expecting a Pitbull concert. –NBW

Good to see Chris Bosh is still alive.

Scary to think all the Heat need is two of the big three getting theirs with a solid bench effort, and they can beat mostly anyone.

Conference finals need to step it up: first 2 rounds were must-watch games. These are forgettable blowouts.

That shit only flies in the East...the Spurs had em beat last year, whoever wins the west can and will take the Heat down.

They're getting destroyed without LeBron. Frank Vogel isn't as good of a coach as I thought he was last year. His game plans suck and he doesn't make many adjustments. He's been exposed.

Miami seemed more focused after LeBron got in foul trouble. They turned a 8 point deficit into a 9 point lead while LeBron sat on the bench.

Blackhawks win 5-4

OKC - Miami is going to be a great matchup. Miami's first and only legitimate opponent in the playoffs.

I agree if they have a healthy Ibaka and if Good Westbrook shows up all series.

IF OKC gets past SA, and IF Good Westbrook shows up all series in the Finals, it won't be a very competitive Finals.

They will still need Ibaka.

LeBron has 5 fouls with 8:30 left in the 3rd quarter. The officials must have money on Indiana. Unfortunately Indiana is still down 11.

I think Miami having James and being two time defending champs will make it somewhat competitive, if not thrilling. I just wish teams like GS or LAC were out east so we would have better games in that conference. Miami won't have any competition again next year if rose doesn't return.

If Miami loses this year they might not have any competition for the #1 draft pick in 2016 next year.
