BTW, don't listen to Bayless. He always picks the Spurs, but in case the Spurs aren't there, he picks the underdog. Its not even just hate on Lebron, Kobe, Wade, Rose, etc...he roots for (or is scripted to root for) the underdog.

Yumcha

But, I root for the LeHeat...regardless of year and sport.


I got the LeHeat winning the World Series in October.

CarbonGray Earl

^^not 1, not 2, not 3...

Yumcha

If the LeHeat weren't so busy in the NBA playoffs, they would've won the Stanley Cup over the LA Kings.

that would leave your cubs still with the curse. lol

CarbonGray Earl

I got them over Obama AND Romney in November.

CarbonGray Earl

On a serious note, what would it take to stop them at this point? The Avengers? The Force? Michael J. Fox as Teen Wolf?

Okay, that wasn't so serious, but you catch my drift...they own the East as it is right now.

The Chicago Bulls?

the freedom strike can't stop the awesomeness of this team.

Jason Bourne couldn't infiltrate this team

Yumcha

Alright...if I'm to take a step away from my snarking and sarcasm of the LeHeat, I would say that the team with the best shot are the Bulls.

I hate playing the what-if game...but, if Chicago met Miami in the Conference Finals, it would've been a battle for the ages. And honestly, I would not be shocked if the Bulls prevailed this time. But, alas...all for nothing.

Yumcha

But, if we're talking about superheros, not even the Silver Surfer can slam dunk on LeBron, LeWade, and LeMiniMe.

CarbonGray Earl

I guess the only thing that can stop them is themselves.

Oh man....the Bulls-Heat series was the one I wanted to see this year. Would have been awesome...

this is the first time that i have seen something actually come out good from Mark Cuban's mouth.

^ gdi.. no speakers at work. Whats he saying?

asianspec

Bascially calls out Bayless for trying to take credit for Lebron winning the championship, Bayless tells Cuban that the only reason why the Mavs won last year because Lebron was just a jumpshooter and the reason why he won this season is because he learned how to post-up. Cuban almost flips by that saying since Bayless doesn't give his team any credit for winning last year.

CarbonGray Earl

Good shit Mark Cuban....that sort of in-depth analysis is what's missing from sports analysis and frankly, the problem with 'news' shows these days. Most analysis these days is a mile-wide in terms of breadth but only an inch of depth to it.

I don't like Cuban, but I sure as heck respect that he's a really smart guy. I esp. liked when he asks Skip to explain the defensive scheme on how they stopped Lebron last year, and Skip kept going back to 'Lebron just didn't want it last year'. LOL, there is more to basketball than that Skip.

yea. he is smarter than he looks. you would think somebody that ugly could be a multi billionaire

Rick_TL-S

Coming from the team that sat there & made coughing gestures to mock Dirk or gloated in front of the bench from a 3-pointer?

Yeah, that was real respect from Miami last year.

BraveDemon

Saw the clip on my phone and man Skip got owned... just like he got owned by Jalen Rose a while back.

Skip and Stephen A are good for comic relief - they act like clowns that try to make inflammatory dialogue about sports.

Cuban's spot on though, they rarely (if ever) talk about in depth analysis.

Lebron said after they lost that he was immature. Yea it was a shot a Dirk. But Dirk responded.

Rick_TL-S

Dirk responded in the same way LeBron responded this year; on the court with a desire to win.

I'm not giving James grief for what he did last year after he realize his mistake. But, I am calling out that silly, "To get respect, you have to give it" comment when it was Miami who "drew first blood". You said it yourself, LeBron admitted he was immature, so even he realized he didn't deserve any.

As for OKC having class, they are no different from every other team in the league. For every player who congratulates the other team, there are others who just walk off the court. And after watching this series, the only player without any class is Harden.

He choked this year & he choked hard. Probably from falling on his back so much.

I see how okc can viewed as any regular team but how we live in a society that sportmanship is dying from all competition sports. It's just refreshing to see that it's still out there in some people

Skip Bayless is a joke, a tool.

This guy got owned hard, real hard.

Hey...did u guys see the short narrative story on ESPN called; "LEBRON'S JOURNEY"...Great review of what LBJ has through since highschool, or putting it in better perspective, 15yrs old to be more exact. That was the age he was starting to make a name and people like Dickey V traveled to see this kid whos name was being spoken about as if some SUPER HERO arrived. So much pressure on a young person. And we all know how he overcame all his mental and physical advercities. He is a CHAMPION!

I saw the segment this morning.

If the Nets pick up Howard somehow and keep Deron, I don't see anyone beating them.

Anybody who gives a rat's ass the Heat's parade will be on heat.com @ 11:30am est.

JayVee

iTrader: (21)

Hmmm sounds good. But NO! The NETS problems do not begin and end with Howard pick up. Even DW was the only reliable superstar avg 21pts pg on the team. Its going to take more then just 2. Even if the 2nd is as dominant as DH.
