Derrick Rose - Youngest MVP ever.
Sccit:
i do think thunder would beat the heat, hell yea...with perkins and ibaka down low + durant and westbrook on the perimeter....heat lack size, they will beat chicago because chicago lacks scorers and they will beat boston because boston lacks size....but the mavs have size+scorers and so do the thunder...hence, my original statement, that the heat have an easy road to the finals, which was idioticly shot down by teecee before he even gave it thought.

But like I said, the Lakers have an easy road too, by default. You have plenty of height & somebody "better than Jordan". As far as depth goes & on paper, you're hands down the best team in the league. It would be an embarrassment if you guys didn't make it to the Finals.

how are we "deep"? our bench has sucked all playoffs, and our second best player is being outplayed by his little brother, who was a 2nd round pick......we have a good team, but i've never seen someone overrate a team depth as much as u do with the Lakers. Mavs and Thunder match up better with the Lakers than anyone in the East matches up with the Heat.

Your "sixth man" is a starter on 98% of the teams in the league & an all-star if he played in the East.
& match-up my dick. You're still hands down better. & who cares how Pau is playing? Like I said, you're underachieving. You're a far superior team than any team in the West, you're just not playing like it.
teecee:
The fucked up thing is none of these teams are playing GREAT basketball, except for maybe the HEAT, although their series against the Sixers was closer than the 4-1 series win would indicate.
Dallas= soft as fuck, and not clutch. I can see them getting one more against L.A. but that should be it. Too old, too soft.
Miami= not deep enough. Poor ball movement (although it's looked good last two games against Celts); Lebron's killer instinct is questionable, Bosh shits the bed every other game, and if their role players are off, which is often, they have no chance to beat L.A. Great team defense though. If Miami wins this year with this line-up, then the rest of the league should just give up...
ATL- reliance on outside game does not win championships (unless you've got a Hakeem down low, and go inside-out). Will lose to Chicago in 6.
L.A.= best team on paper, but damn do they do some dumb shit. Artest is an enigma, Gasol can be a straight pussy, Odom is inconsistent, Kobe is not what he once was. You don't know what you are gonna get with this team, but you know if Kobe and his team are on their game, then no one should beat these guys. Period.
Memphis= fun to watch, deep, solid down low, but lacking a true game changer (Randolph? i don't think so). Will lose to OKC in 6. 8th seeds do not belong in conference finals. Would get swept by Lakers
OKC= Westbrook makes horrible decisions, and Perkins is hella overrated. These guys are soft inside. Will not have a chance to beat Lakers. PERIOD.
Boston= too old, not big enough in side without a Perkins or Shaq to take up space. Going down in 5 or 6 to Heat.
Chicago= predictable offense; as someone else said, these guys are like Lebron's Cava's, but with better role players and a weaker star. Will give Miami a definite run, but lose in 6 or 7.
This year, more than any in recent memory, the playoffs are wide open, but it's only because teams are not playing great basketball (only Memphis is realizing their potential).
The East is weak, the West is weak, so it'll most likely be a Miami-Lakers series, and the Lakers should win it. It'll be interesting though; both teams are capable of imploding.
