I'm officially rooting for the finals to be Grizz vs. Hawks.
No Mavs, no Bulls, no Celtics, no Miami. Not even OKC.

I'm sure David Stern would LOOOOVE to have to two least popular teams in the playoffs get to the finals.

^ well tbh didn't the WS end up that way, so in general anything can happen right?

I understand that Chicago is gonna boo the Heat (as they should seeing as they are the opposing team) but they have to cheer Wade just a little bit right?

Well I guess some news from Laker land

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar wants a statue, feels slighted

My opinion on this, he should be the first one to have it in both Milwaukee and LA, however I think the LA one should show the sky hook, which he did make famous. However, he shouldn't have opened his mouth because I think he will get one, but it will be Milwaukee first then LA in my opinion, although I do wonder why UCLA doesn't have a statue of him either (he probably has something, but really he needs something for his work

)

Mavs vs Heat round 2! I do like Dirk and always have been a fan of Jason Kidd but Wade likes playing in Dallas says his Finals & All Star MVP hardware.

Bulls simply didn't have enough to get past the Heat. They play good enough defense that they can get back to the Eastern conference finals but they need one more guy at least to play alongside Rose to get to the finals or win a championship. Dwight Howard would be nice but I don't see the Magic trading him, let alone to the Bulls. They're more likely to look for an upgrade at SG.

Great line from Will Leitch:

Dirk Nowitzki just became the most popular player in the NBA. The German is everyone's last hope.

Dallas HAS TO WIN for THIMMY!!

BTW, during a 1 yr period we've managed to host the Super Bowl, World Series and now NBA Finals! (Now we just need to win one)
