LA 2004 had players past their prime, we just didn't quite know it...Malone, Payton, Mitch Richmond, etc.

These Heat guys are in their prime.

The Lakers just got killed (dubbed the 5 game sweep, remember?). They didn't really choke. That Pistons team played wicked defense and was just plain better.

MJ and Pip > Stockton and Malone

Bulls '98 cast = or + vs Jazz '98 cast

If not for pushoff by MJ vs Russell, and refs putting MJ on the line everytime the wind blew, who knows?

I was pulling for the Jazz hard. My buddies were all Bulls diehards.

I know I was joking. I was rooting for the jazz that year thou, I thought they could take the bulls. The bulls had been taken to 7 by Indiana and the jazz were well rested after embarrassing the lakers.

Ben Wallace was the best player in 2004.

The Pistons were the better team in 2004, can't really be considered a "choke".
