QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 3, 2014 -> 07:52 PM) Pistons in '04? Heat in '06? Mavs in '11? Ok, maybe the word never was too strong but it happens the least of the four major sports. The Grizz continue to hang around but fully expect OKC to pull away in the 2nd half.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 3, 2014 -> 07:18 PM) You're kidding, right? In what individual year/s in the 90's did the league have 5, let alone 10, teams with a legitimate shot at a title? The 80's was even worse. If you don't like today's ball, fine. But don't say parity is a reason. In that case, the nba has sucked since the 70's. I realize parity in the NBA has been fiction for a long time. I was just kinda making fun of your whole "the NBA today is da greatest eva" comment. Yeah it's a cool story of all these first round 7 game series but we all know only two or three teams really have a real shot at the title. When's the last time a surprise team no one expected to win won it all? That happens in the NFL, MLB and NHL quite frequently, never in the NBA.

And yet only either Miami, SA or OKC will win the title. No one else has a legit shot. The NBA produce easily the most predictable playoffs winners of the four major sports.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 1, 2014 -> 05:21 PM) Want to know the difference between LeBron and KD? Pressure. One has more on him to win than any player in nba history. The other doesn't. Durant is on the verge of being bounced from the playoffs before he even gets his mvp award and it's not even a big deal. If this was LeBron all f***in' hell would be breaking loose. Let's pretend LeBron hasn't brought alot of it on himself, the guy who asked us to "Witness", calls himself King and predicted not 6, not 7...oh, and joined another top 5 player's team along with an All Star PF to stack the deck. Yeah, really feel sorry for poor LeBron

Going after player's relatives is weak sauce. I really dislike Boozer, can't say I "hate" him, don't know the guy personally but yeah, hopefully we've seen the last of him in a Bulls uni. I'm really digging on Memphis, they got KD and Westbrook shook.

Gotta feel bad for Clippers fans. All those years of being terrible and forever second to the Lakers in Los Angeles, now they have a legit team and they can't even enjoy the playoffs without all this Sterling BS.

Lot's of poor people, and pretty pissed off that the government is spending so much money on the WC and Olympics instead of on education, health services, public transportation, infrastructure, etc...

They're behind in WC preparations too I believe. How the hell does a 3rd world country get the WC and Summer Olympics two years apart anyways? Pretty stupid if you ask me, and I'm not even mentioning the social unrest going on there.

QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Apr 28, 2014 -> 10:00 PM) If the Pacers end up losing that series, the Bulls really blew their chance to make it to the ECF.. I think if Thibs wasn't so stubborn with his rotations we would have been better off Meh, the East is the D League compared to the West. Getting to the ECFs only to get destroyed by Miami wouldn't impress me in the least. With losing in the first round, hopefully GarPax finally get it through their thick skulls that we aren't as close to being legit as they'd like to believe and maybe they'll do something about it. I doubt it though.

Don't forget the anual Rose season ending injury. But the Bulls will hustle their way into the playoffs

The Heat are so fortunate they're in the cream puff East. They prolly wouldn't get to the Finals this year. The West is that brutal.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 24, 2014 -> 08:53 PM) I'll say this for the 56th time, the west winner could potentially be burnt out by the time they get to the finals. The Spurs are not that far off from being down 0-2 to Dallas. And the Grizzlies are giving OKC all they can handle. And it's the first f***ing round. Another way to see it is, the team that comes outta the West will be battle hardened and ready to take on the Heat who pillow fought their way out of the East . Seriously though and you can call me crazy but If I were a betting man, I'd take the winner of the WCFs over the Heat right now.
