Fine. If you have 2 of the top 5 you should probably be able to reach the finals. Especially if your 3rd best is in the top 20-25. Spoelstra isn't the best coach in the league at all. He's really not that good of a coach. He's alright, but not great.

He led but Shaq brought up the rear and gave him the edge..... Ironically He is in the same position during this Playoff run as Shaq was, he is bringing up the rear and the man driving the train is the #1 player in the world.
Truth is Shaq was still that big of a force and that let D-wade shine, along with one of the best leading at the helm Riely.
This Heat team isn't dangerous solely because of the Players....its real dangerous because of the Man who wrote Winner Within.
Remember He is the one who said back in the Alonso Morning days "no one wins as long as he is in the league" he being who? Air Jordan.....who has the same effect on NBA Basketball ? you guessed it, The King......Now the Ball is in Riley's court.
You dont get just one Chance with a Lebron or Jordan type, you get multiple, you just need the right Manager.

Lebron and Wade are great players, but Bosh is a joke. You know its rigged when Bosh scores 34 the other night just shooting jumpers. Anyone with half a brain would be able to shut him down by just playing some tight D and he would be useless. But no, they just sit back and let him shoot open jumpers all night. Rigged!!
If the Heat win the title I will never turn on an NBA game for the rest of my life. I hope the NBA allows the Mavs to pull off the "upset".

To say no one is winning a title as long as Lebron is playing when he has never won one is easily one of the most ridiculous comments you have ever made.

This Nonsense is like saying The Refs decide the Games.....and the reason its nonsense is Vegas wouldn't allow it. If its so rigged why dont you take $10,000 and turn it into $100,000 this Final series.

Do they want the Heat to win it all so they can keep talking about "this is what Lebron came to south beach to do" or do they allow the Mavs to pull the "upset" like I said before and turn some story about Dirk and Cuban finally bringing a championship to Dallas. I'm sure they're running the financial analysis right now to see which outcome will bring the league the most money and will be meeting with the refs of the series tomorrow to talk about "the plan".

Look how many Lakers series have had very questionable officiating and endings in the last 10-15 years. Why does the lottery occur behind closed doors and not picking ping pong balls out on live TV like they used to? To me, the NBA is only slightly above the WWE when it comes to being "real".

Oh come on, you cant be that sore about the Unstacked Heat winning, because if they were Stacked like others are implying they wouldn't be winning because its rigged.

I'm not sore that the Heat won. Like you always say, I don't have a dog in the race anyway. I'm not a fan of any particular team in the NBA. I'm just stating some things that bug me about the NBA. Of course Lebron was going to the finals this year. With the big fiasco over the off season the NBA was going to make sure he was there.
