NBA Playoffs are wide open....because the league is weak right now.

Agreed 7even; when you have a franchise who has never even won a playoff game up 2-1 in conference semi-finals, then you know it's some crazy shit. I think most of us just assumed the lakers would be there; props to the Mavs
Bch:
different time and space, the league has evolved with better athletes but its much different than when 'zo mourning was woopin peoples ass everytime they drove down the lane. You cant even hand check people anymore, but offense not defense will drive ratings up and in a world where NBA basketball competes with NHL hockey for $$$$revenue, that aint gonna change no time soon. You gotta love the parody not just shaq and kobe dominating the fk out of everybody
sprite:
in my opinion, I didn't think the Heat would do anything this year, but they have as good a chance as anyone else
that being said, I would assume in the coming years Miami will probably win a title, possibly multiple
based on the fact they'll most likely be too good with extra additions
Russell Bell:
The nba has gone soft
playoff basketball used to be one of the toughest exhibitions of sports, now with the foul calls they make all the time, it isn't close to what it used to be
too bad the nba would rather have high scoring games propped up by pussy techs and foul calls than allow for the games to actually be fought out in the paint
if you dont believe me, watch kobes face anytime someone gets near him; he expects a foul called everytime cause thats how the nba operates these days

^Because Stern realized he could fix games at the foul line. In game one of the first round Derrick Rose shot 21 free throws. That's more than Indiana shot combined all series lol.
Donaghy called the NBA out for using corrupt refs & the league didn't even press slander charges against him lol.
