Not this year homes.

For sure. If not OKC it will be San Antonio.

James is nowhere near Jordan.

In my opinion the Heat are not gona get a ring this year. They might get to the finals but they can't hang with the teams in the west. I think if they can get past Indiana they will go to the finals. I think Indiana will give them more trouble than Boston/Philly. Indiana may not have a superstars but they have a team of quality players. Miami just has two superstars but no team of quality players. Really hurts not having bosh active. I am not a lebron hater. I am just a hater of the popularity he has. He is overated. Colin Cowherd is a wise man but he is way off on his analysis of James. But then again maybe I am. Im just speaking my opinion. Like it or hate it. Don't get me wrong I do think he is one of the best in the league. But anyone who says he is as good as Jordan is way off in left field.

Flopping in the NBA

I saw today on espn.com one of there polls they always have on the bottom half of the homepage asking: What should happen to NBA players that flop. And the choices where A: Fine them B: supend them C: Nothing D: Technical.My answer is that is stupid. The question should be what should happen to NBA referees who call fouls when players flop and have the same choices for answers. To me a player can flop if he wants. It is the job of the referee to make that call. Maybe if referees made more no - calls on flop plays the players wouldn't do it. The refs need to do a better job in my opinion. Players are competitive. They wouldn't have gotten to that level if they were not. So they are gona do whatever it takes to win. I don't fault them for that. I have no problem with players that flop. I have a problem with referees who call fouls when players flop.

Who is the MVS?

Who is the Most Valuable Sidekick?

I would say Russel Westbrook because they most likely are gona win the championship in my opinion. Deng and bynum are nice picks for that award to. I don't really see wade as a sidekick. I see lebron as the sidekick.  It is just wade is more passive. But he has more skill in my opinion.  I have seen lebron miss way to many free throws to say he is more talented than wade. It is just lebron is more talented in between the ears. He has that killer instinct that great ones have. That is what I thought until watching the playoffs and I now would have to say Dwayne Wade is definitely a sidekick. He is a awsome player, but Lebron is the guy on that team. There are other players in the league that are also deserving of this award. Can you think of any? Who is your pick for Most Valuable Sidekick? Just leave a comment with your vote.

Is Carmello selfish?

I don't think he is intentionally. But yes he is. Because there is no way you can say he has no talent around him. He's got players. Good ones. Shumpert, Novak, J.R. Smith, Chandler, Baron Davis, Lin and landry fields. The rest of the squad sucks but those guys listed are money. If you put lebron with those guys they are contenders. Easily. Look who lebron took to the finals. Don't want to take the time to go find who was on their roster. But it wasn't much. I think Carmello should not be a number one option on a team. The problem is he has number one talent. He does have game, much game. But Jeremy Lin should defenitely be running the show there and setting up everyone else. All you need is a coach to make it happen. It is just to bad Lin is to soft in that respect. He defers to Melo and will never stand up to him and tell to shut up. To bad. Cause they could be very good with the team they got. But with Melo shooting all the time it ain't gona happen. I am not saying he should't shoot. He should. He is the most talented on the team. He should never be in isolation. He should be fed the ball by a point gaurd(or anybody) in rotation. 

That just might work!

HAHAHA!!
