    who's going to win the NBA finals?

    Boston will be there. Im tipping the lakers to also be there. I dont think theyre trying atm I think once the finals start then we'll see the true lakers. I think theyre resting up a fair bit.

    Spurs and Celtics.

    Celtics defeat Heat in conference finals.
    Spurs defeat Lakers in their conference finals.

    Public takes a bath betting Heat and Lakers, Vegas makes a ton of money.

    SPURS Win it All.

    I could see the Mavs/Memphis/Portland Knocking out the Lakers.

    Miami Will be in the finals as well, They will handle Boston in the Playoffs.

    agree with Spurs, don't think Heat bench is as deep as Celtics bench, could be the difference.

    no chance any of those teams beat the lakers. No chance what so ever. Spurs could but the other one's are a joke. Look at portlands smashing at the hands of the lakers early in the season when they had Roy. Blazers could beat the lakers this week they always do in portland ** not last time tho with a kobe-less team ** but playoffs is a different ball game.

    Celtics will win if they are close to 100% healthy. They beat up on the Heat with 5 guys injured, including 3 of their 4 big men. Lakers just don't have it this year IMO.

    But that's what people said about last years lakers. Now last year they did display good form tho I must admit before dropping off at the end of the season when they had the west all but won. They beat the celtics in boston 2 weeks ago I don know how much difference Erdan, Daniels and Shaq would have made. Only lost by a point to the spurs. Good away wins vs the hornets and memphis too.

    On form for the majority of the season youre right but I just feel this team is waiting to the playoffs. I'm a lakers fan but am not biased dont get me wrong I want us to win but if we don't I don't really care. 2 straight wins is fantastic you cant win them all and what can you do if they dont. I dont let my support for this team get in the way of truth. As I said if we were going on what theyve did then they wont win it. But a team of champions with a championship calibre coach who knows how to get it done when it counts shouldn't be counted out already and we shouldnt assume things are the way they seem.

    Semih, Shaq, JO'Neal, and Daniels are all important role players, and more importantly, the first 3 provide size. Without them, KG and Big Baby get rolled to the C spot when Perk needs rest. Celtics were dominating the game, until they got in foul trouble. That's when the injuries and lack of depth really hurt.

    The Lakers got lazy during the reg season last year, but it looked different than this year. This year they just haven't had any consistency from anyone, which is a problem. I'm assuming they'll make another deep playoff run, but they have a big ass target on their back, and idk if they have the team to overcome it this year

    Celtics over DALLAS.

    Mavs would be right there with Spurs for best record in NBA is Dirk didn't miss so much time earlier this year, Dallas has still lost only EIGHT games all year with Nowitzki in the linepup, including current 13-1 run where only loss was by one point at Denver.

    Miami Heat. I don't think they will have a big problem with the Celtics i can see them finishing them in 5-6 games. They are still playing around with rotations. Boston and possibly Bulls is going to be the hardest team for them any team on the West wont stand a change against the Heat.

    the heat wont have a problem with the celtics who have beat them 3 from 3? if spurs met the heat spurs would finish them in 5 or 6 max. Spurs would pound the heat hard!

    Yes Celtics have beat them 3/3 in close games and 2 of them games being very early in the season when the Heat were still trying to adjust rotations. Obviously Celtics are going to be heavily favored in the playoffs and the risk vs reward for the Heat is going to be very nice because they will come out.

    I played the Bulls at 13/1 so I"ll say Bulls. I think San Antonio will win the west. Maybe Dallas. I don't think the Lakers get there this time. The east Boston, Miami, or the Bulls We'll see who can play the playoff style defense.

    So many top caliber, well rounded teams in the race this year

    However I think the Celtics are the hungriest and will overcome them all

    Finals series will be Celtics v Lakers/Spurs
