+1...that was an unbelievable series!

I think Boston takes Orlando in 6...Howard isn't aggressive enough and Orlando lives and dies by the 3

Im disappointed because this series didn't prove anything. Both teams are pretty equal, even though Miami has more experience with playoffs than Atlanta. It was a pretty lopped sided series. since all games were blow-out games for the winning team. I give Atlanta credit since they are a good team. probably the best right now since the Nique and Webb days. This season was a success for the Heat, Erik Spoelstra has done a super job with this team. The best turnaround for a team in NBA history. Wade does need help. Im sure that next year will be even better.

I remember one year Atl was a 1 seed. I think they had Danny Manning still. I don't think they got passed the Bulls though...

As for Miami, I'm happy with the season. 5 seed usually means 1st round exit but I'll take the winning improvement. At least we pushed to 7 games. If we hadn't faltered toward the end of the reg season and gotten the 4 seed, maybe we would've taken advantage of the 2-1 series lead we had. Plus Moon getting hurt really hurt our defense. I'm not expecting big moves this offseason. Everyone's gunning for 2010.

^ahhhh LeChoke could suck it.



Lakers are going to mop the floor with them if they make it to the finals, Cavs dont have a really big lineup to match up with the lakers.

Dammit! I told you guys about my Magic. Up by 28 in the third quarter, then end up wining by 5. Lack of defensive organization. No go-to guy. Dwight Howard not agressive enough on the offensive end. I feel like I've said this before...

Kobe loves attention and loves to be the hero, but he is the best player in the NBA and the Lakers go down 0-1 if he sits the game out.
