    Anyone willing to make a friendly app-bet to put your credits where your fingers are (wow...)?

    Winner gets the right to choose a 4.99-value app which the loser of the bet must send as a gift - simple. Mods, please message me if this isn't allowed or anything and i'll edit my post.

    cleveland fan? lol. Honestly, he moved on to a better team. He couldn't win with cleveland and pairing with Bosh and wade was better for him. Don't be crying. BTW, it's lebron AND wade's team. Also, the Decision may have been a bit uncool, but in no way is the decision stopping him from winning....

    It was sad, but he needs to move on to better things like you said. Ambition over everything.

    In the NBA, talent wins. In other sports, systems, coaches, chemistry, luck, etc., all play keys roles. In the NBA, none of that matters. Talent and talent alone wins. Period. He who has the most talent always wins. And, because there is no real salary cap, and high profile teams are allowed to get away with hoarding talent, only 8 teams have won an NBA title in the last 30 years. The NBA has by far the worst track record of parody in all of sports.

    The Heat will win because they have the most talent. Dallas has a better team. They have a deeper team. A better bench. Better role players. Dallas has a better coaching staff. Dallas runs a better system. Dallas has better team chemistry. But Miami has the most talent and so none of those other things matter. Miami will win in either four games or five. It won't even be close. Dallas will get crushed. Ultimately, this is what is wrong with the NBA. It's not really a team sport. Or at least it hasn't been since Jordan arrived and changed everything.

    some of those are debatable.

    and talent isn't the only thing. Or else celtics would suck balls, thunder would have won (and lakers, tbh),magic would be better, knicks wouldn't blow, etc.

    lol @ Rockets.

    Anyways, Spolestra will copy Pat Riley tactics and switch up the defenses on Dirk and give him different coverage each and every game (I'm guessing plenty of Bron/Wade/maybe some hard hits from Joel Anthony). Whether or not this throws him off will determine who wins this NBA Finals rematch.

    1. figure of speech?
    2. Does he have a ring YET? no. Now he has a better team.
    3. I don't even know. that has nothing to do with anything. Also, with his team now, if he quit, they would still have a shot at winning. not even close with Cleveland. cause he was dragging a bag of crap. And how do you know he quit. Honestly, I wasn't watching, but there are a number of things that could have happened. Had the rest of the team not sucked.....
    4. but once again, it was the right choice and it has no effect on how he's gonna play in the upcoming finals.
    hater. :p

    I hope you are right. And I am hoping LeBron doesn't have his talents in Miami.

    Pretty close game in Miami today. Heat put in a bit more effort though. Grabbed quite a few more key rebounds than the Mavs. Definitely some good defense from both teams though. Heat.
