    First Time In Years No Clear Cut Favorites In NBA TO Go To Championship Series.

    Its been a strange year, I do not think talent is down I think its so dispersed and injuries killing the league. I think it has been a boring 1st half and real sloppy ball and erratic play from many players. The Heat can easily get clipped before finals.

    They are playing opossum until the playoffs. You should know them by now (Heat). Don't ever discount S.A... When OKC gets healthy they too will be OK. Just my opinion.

    Pacers, Thunders, Spurs or Clippers to win it all.
    Let's see if the Heat make it to the nba finals 4 seasons in a row.

    Howard never wins a title until he is one of those old bastard 7 footers hanging around the practice floor at 38 y.o.
    Harden plays matador D, Lin can`t shoot, McKale can`t coach.

    Indy and SA would be the best series.

    at the Rockets going deep this season. They are 0-2 against the Kings. They lost to the Jazz. They lost a home game to the Lakers. They lost at Philadelphia. I know good teams have bad losses every season, but this is already too much. They match up well with SA and Portland, but OKC, the Clippers, Pacers and Heat all shit on the Rockets. They aren't even close.

    The Rockets are way too mentally weak to close out a series on the road, and they'll be lucky to even have home-court advantage in the first round. They have fifth seed and first-round exit written all over them if they don't make a trade. Teams know how to slow them down, and once they get slowed down and start missing shots, they are a complete mess of a team that doesn't defend, rebound or hold on to the ball.

    no need to be delusional, first year Harden and Howard playing together, they will be lucky to win a playoff series.
