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

LOL...like wcsoldier said, the league was more watered down in the Jordan era....Jazz and Sonics in the Finals? LOL. those were some pretty bad defensive teams compared to the teams who make the Finals nowadays.

people always glorify the past and shit on the present. not just in nba basketball discussion, more like in every aspect of the world. i can't think of any topic where one would not find tons of people saying "damn it used to be so much better, fuck that bullshit that is put out/happening now". it's what people do.

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

We still got room for you on the wagon son

Were extremely difficult to beat in a 7gm chess match series.. just an amazing extrmely athletic team

I was referring to soft as, soft = BS fouls called all the time

Turning the NBA into a pseudo soccer type sport (with the refs calling soft fouls and players whining like pussies) wont gain any fans here in the US

Watch the finals right now and you can see what i'm talking about

MJ got mad calls from refs; tr point is, the game is soft as shit right now.

Ur right bout Jordan. 

But if that team was playing today, youd have Luc Longley getting Jordanesqe calls from the refs and flopping around like he was in the world cup.

But you have no idea how hard teams like the pistons and Knicks were on Jordan; dude also got a lot of calls, because he relentlessly drove the ball and didnt settle for bad threes

I guess what you are hinting at is that Jordan, despite 6 finals MVPs, the highest PPG average in history,  72 wins in a season, and instilled fear in EVERYONE in the league, really wasn't all that, right?  We get it already NIK, now shut up already.  Its been blatantly obvious that you discredit anyone better than Kobe, or anyone being compared to Kobe.  Again, we get it, move on.
