I'm down for it (seeing as my Bulls have no shot).

I think the Spurs are the only team that could give the Heat serious problems in a 7 game series.

i think the spurs will have tons of trouble with the thunder again. the spurs match up better against the heat, but they may not get the chance to prove it

The Heat are a better version of the Thunder though. All the problems the Thunder give the Spurs, the Heat would as well.

I don't see OKC beating SA this year in a series without Harden.

Don't sleep on the pacers. They have played the Heat twice and won both in a convincing fashion.

I don't think the Thunder can hang with the Spurs this year. Harden killed SA last year and Perkins and Ibaka played unreal. Don't see that repeating.

Regular season results don't matter. In 2010 all we heard about was how the Bulls would beat the Heat. The Bulls were 3-0 against the Heat in regular season and lost 4-1 in ECF. The Pacers don't have enough offense to beat the Heat over a 7 game series with both teams fully healthy.

Nuggets don't really have the defense to compete against the Heat for a series. The Heat would scheme a way to mitigate the rebounding like they've done against the Bulls before.

I want to see the Spurs just because they play clinical ball. Easily the best team in the league to watch.

Exactly why they are the team that could give the Heat the most problems.

Heck, the Bulls share the ball just as much as the Spurs do, but they don't have the talent to consistently produce offensively.

Spurs aren't very fun to watch, but they always win.

I still think they are going to have a tough time stopping Durant to even get to the finals.

I think the Bulls are boring to watch, but they play the best defense in the league and have ill rotations. They do a terrific job guarding the corners and the lane. Imagine if they had a really good PF presence on D, instead of Boozer.

I love watching them play. Flawless ball movement makes for great offense sets and open looks. It is basically how I want to see basketball played.

Well, I also enjoy one watching guards who take badass jump shots even if it not entirely efficient like AI, Westbrook, Monta, and Kobe. When those type of guys are on, I think they are the most exciting players to watch in the league.

No one will be remotely surprised if the Thunder make The Finals.
