And the Winner is...?

Congrats to the Dallas Mavericks, NBA Champions. They really did it. The team that most people had zero faith in until they beat Lakers in the fashion they did. They earned this one in impressive fashion. Dirk didn't have the best game in the world but when the 4th quarter came around he did what he needed for his guys. The threes finally started to hit for Dallas and it was all she wrote when Jason Terry, JJ Barea were in the game. Jason Terry called LeBron out early in the series and I guess he was right by saying James couldnt guard him for seven games.... The Jet closed it out with impressive "lights out" shooting. Congrats to Jason Kidd. He really deserves it to go along with his future Hall Of Fame placement.

Mark Cuban says that giving his players a championship ring was "old." He says he got something exclusive he is gonna do for his team. I cant wait to see!!!

Meanwhile on the other side of the ball..........

.

This was one of the worst displays of basketball in a championship game I've ever seen. C'mon son. where ya heart at?

and this is what Wade was worrying about before the game.....

well this is what he can wear now...

Lebron has not one post move in his arsenal. He could actually become unstoppable one day if he ads that to his game. Then he needs to see the wizard and ge ta heart be cause his sure doesn't work. Chris Bosh (aka Posh Spice), was having a consistent first half, and then went back into his usual "chill mode" when the game counted. Dwade always says if he is on the court injuries are ruled out, so he gotta get it too.... Horrible game for Wade as well. How much can you actually expect from the rest of those guys who touch the court?

Chalmers was actually the shining star that kept the game close for his guys by hitting some clutch shots. Only problem was he forgot about the defensive part of it all.

I really hope you dont expect me to mention any other players right????Juwan Howard acting like his not gone get any retirement bread. He is about 2 or 3 years out of game shape along with all the other big men. Haslem is a good role player but was too small to compete....

So where do they go from here? We will be back soon with another blog to comment on that question because it will require a long ass answer....

On another note, hopefully we have a season next year and not a work stoppage. The game is getting more competitive by the year and we don't need the NBA to start out the same way things have for the NFL.

Down to the Wire

It all comes down to this. First off, I like the Heat. I think DWade is arguably the 2nd best player in the league behind Kobe. That makes LeBron 2b in a somewhat virtual tie with Wade, but giving the edge to DWade because he has actually won in dramatic fashion unless LBJ. That being said, what in the FFFFFUUUUUCCCCKKKK is wrong with these guys? This is pathetic that Miami looks so good in spurts and looks so terrible in others. Dallas shot 13-19 on 3s, but how many were wide open 3s after terrible switches or lost assignments after clogging the lane? Why are you crowding the lane against a team that has ZERO slashers? Stay at home, Dallas would have to beat me 1on1 all day before I help on defense. Will Dallas shoot this good again, probably so if they are wide open. 


5 Ways for Miami to Come Back
1. Leave Mike Bibby in Dallas. Give him the wrong flight information. Leave him in the hotel. Let him oversleep on the flight and make sure he makes the next flight to Alaska. He is virtually worseless right now. He has no confidence in his shot, couldn't go by Jason Kidd if he had quiksand, and is only decent on defense. Not to say Chalmers is that much of an upgrade but he has been pretty decent on offense. Bibby's minutes have decreased to 15 mins a game, why not bring that off the bench instead of the 1st quarter? 
2. In addition to coming off the bench, throw more flame throwers at Dallas. Can we get a James Jones sighting? Why wouldn't throw House/Bibby/Jones in some kind of simple rotation of whoever is hot? Neither is as bad of a defensive liability as Peja who is buried on Dallas bench.

3. Give Chris Bosh some football gloves in the 3rd/4th quarter like a QB in cold weather. He has been better than expected this series but he is who we thought he was. A role player. A soft guy. He is the modern day Horace Grant without the goggles and the great defense. But he has been invisible in the 3rd to 4th quarter. 


4. Get DWade the ball. He is obviously the only one on the court that is ballin the entire game. He has to be looking at his teammates wishing he had Shaq and Gary Payton right now. 


5. Bring in Hakeem Olajuwon to teach LeBron some offensive moves IMMEDIATELY. If he can help Dwight Howard, he has to be able to teach this guy at least 3 post moves over the weekend. James has got to want to shed the label of Quitness, a front runner, and momma's boy and force this series to 7 games and win. He can't just win now, he has to dominate and be special if he ever wants to crack top 10 greatest ever. Like his tweet, it is NOW "Now or never."


In other news, Floyd "Coward" Mayweather has yet to respond to this diss track by Manny "Pound-for-Pound" Pacquiao.





This fight will never happen. Mayweather is the undisputed king of running. Recent reports have him linked to Bin-Laden and the two alledgedly wrote a book "The Art of Hiding." It clearly will be a best seller. Fake Freddie Roach getting his Delonte West on in the video. At the 1:50 min mark, it gets hella funny.

NBA Finals: Heat vs Mavs? Award Roundup

Barring a meltdown of the Heatles, looks like the Finals will be an instant replay of Dallas Mavs vs Miami Heat. 
Season Series:
Dallas won the season series 2-0. The games were in November and December. The Dallas win in December snapped the Heat's 12 game win streak at the time were they first started to put everything together. That was also the stretch in which Dallas looked like they do right now, the best team in the West by winning 17 out of 18 games. 
Matchups:
PG - Obviously Dallas has the advantage and Jason Kidd wins this matchup hands down. Kidd is the ultimate floor general, sneaky good defender, and somehow 3pt specialist. Miami is working with the by committee approach of Chalmers/Bibby. Coach Spo doesnt seem to want to give Chalmers the green light for some reason. Maybe Chalmers owes him money for a poker game or something but he should be starting right now. Bibby should be in spot duty.
SG - Advantage Heat. DWade should get back on track vs Deshawn "Diamonds in my Damn Chain" Stevenson. Elephant in the room - Until OT vs Bulls in last game, Wade has been lightweight..... terrible. I can see the Bulls have people that can guard Wade pretty good but Wade is taking a backseat to LeBron right now.  
SF - Advantage Heat. Besides from the next guy on this list, who is playing the best basketball right now? LeBron has picked it up defensively and offensively since the Boston series and looks unstoppable right now. If he only stops saying he doesn't want to play PG, then he would settle into that role perfectly. Marion will have his hands full but will make things tough on LeBron. 
PF - Dirk Diggler is showing you White Men Can't Jump, but they can shoot the J. Dirk has been enfuego the last 2 weeks. He is almost impossible to guard. If I were the Heat, I would give Dirk a heavy dosage of LeBron and Haslem. 
C - Can I list Bosh as Center? Miami is not going to play Big Z, Anthony, or any other DLeague caliber player from here on out right? I see the Heat going with a variation of Wade/LBJ/Miller/Bosh/Haslem or Chalmers from here on out. Isn't that there best lineup? If so, Advantage Bosh. Tyson Chandler is no Joakim Noah but he blocks shots. I see him in foul trouble for most of the series. Bosh has been playing with a candle under his ass (no homo) and rightfully so. If he has the 15 ft jumper going, look out.
Bench - Dallas. People keep saying how deep Dallas bench is, they have Jason "I only show up every other game" Terry, Peja "This is why i'm hot" Stokajvic, and JJ "Dynomite" Barea. Can someone tell me how JJ Barea is making these guys look bad? Is it because he is shorter and slower than every other guard in the league that they are not used to that change of pace? If White Mike Miller, Haslem, Anthony, and White Mike Bibby show up half the time, I really see the bench as a wash, slight advantage Dallas. The problem is that none of those names on Dallas can play defense.
Who's Hot:
Nobody is hotter than LeBron and Dirk right now. They are sharing the co-mvp award right now. Since Dirk is the more consistent scorer, I figure he will stay on fire. If Dallas keeps all of there 3pt shooters on floor (Kidd/Terry/Peja/Dirk/Chandler lineup), the games will be in the 120's easily. As for LeBron, he has to eat Mark Cubans kids the first few games. Heat have a chance to take care of home first, before heading to Jerry's World. 

Who's Not:
The missing link in this series for the Mavs is the services of one Mr. Tough Juice. Racine's finest Caron Butler has been out and will miss this series. He was the one guy that can guard LeBron and Wade effectively. Marion will do a feasible job but he doesn't have the offensive firepower of Butler either. 
X-Factor:
Dallas - If the 3pt shot is falling for the Mavs, it is going to be a tough stretch for the Heat. The games they lost this playoffs mostly included teams getting hot from behind the arc. 
Miami Losses - Philly 8-18 3s, Boston 9-18 3s, Bulls 10-21 3s. There style of defense is a scramble switching, often lose track of their assignment, which leads to open kick out 3s and losing the rebound game. Miami has tried to correct that after each loss.
Miami - If the tempo is good and the ball is moving, Miami wins. The Heat have a tendency to play pick up ball, meaning, here is the ball, your turn to make a move. The ball sticks in someone's hand and the defense is able to shut down the one-on-one moves easier. Movement, running, and swinging the ball as simple as it sounds, is the key to Miami's success. Having 3 players that can get hot doesn't hurt either.
Who Wins:
History repeats itself. Heat in 6. Maybe they will shoot the next video for the DJ Khaled remix to "All I Do is Win" at KOD.



A Little Revisionist History: 
How my pre-season predictions played out in NBA?
Pre-season MVP - Split MVP between Durant and the new forgotten star, Kobe. It can't be DWade or LeBron unless they split the award and that wont happen unless they win 75 games. Durant, aka Dookie from the Wire, has the image the NBA wants right now. I think this will be the last hooray for Kobe. The Lakers will more than likely have the best record in the West and Kobe being the best player on the team....well you see where I'm going.
Reality: Derrick Rose took the LeBron James Do It Yourself Award by leading the Bulls to a league best 62-20 record. After watching them in the playoffs, you walk away with 2 conclusions: Did Rose wear himself out carrying the Bulls all year? and Who are they going to sign to give him some help on offense?

Pre-season Defensive POY - LeBron James - He has everything to prove. Remember he was 2nd to Howard last year. Playing in an uptempo style where he can be the rover....look the F@()k out. Sleeper - Serge Ibaka, OKC. I know most people have never heard of him, but this cat is legit. Will probably lead the league in blocks.
Reality: Dwight Howard ran away with this award again. Surprisely, he should have been considered for most times looking at his teammates with the "I cant believe I play with you bums" face. Hello LA.
Pre-season Best Wing Man - Delonte West. Not on the court but wouldn't you love to go out hanging with Delonte as long as he took his medicine? You never know if you gonna end up at some 
over 40 club or in the streets, but you know you gonna have some stories to tell.
Reality: This should be renamed to the MILF Hunter and Delonte would be the GOAT. 
Pre-season Rookie of Year - John Wall for one simple reason, Blake Griffin is gonna get hurt. He jumps around like he just realized he has legs. Wall is gonna lead the Wiz to the playoffs, not a drastic feat since it will only be about 35 wins. If Blake doesn't get hurt and Baron Davis shows up to work, Blake could get it done. Check the video for highlights 5 and 7.
Reality: Blake managed to stay healthy while delivering the most overrated Dunk Contest finale in league history. After he leaves the Clippers in 2 years, I wonder if he would go back to OKC and make a younger big three with Durant and Westbrook. 

Pre-season Sixth Man - JJ Redick - He will get more looks this year. He is a dead eye shooter and surprisely, he has gotten better every year.
Reality: Lamar Khardasian-Odom won, but should he even be eligible? He is a starter right?
Pre-season Most Improved - Darren Collison. He almost made people forget about Chris Paul in New Orleans for a minute.
Reality: Ok. Ok. I was reaching. Kevin Love wins after he went streaking with double doubles.  
Pre-season Biggest Surprise - Gilbert Arenas - he doesn't have to handle the ball anymore. Agent Zero gets to play off the ball with Wall running through opposing defenders in the lane. Is there a scarier image than Arenas running trailer on a Wall fast break to the 3pt line?
Reality:  Arenas was surprised. He was traded to a better team, with a franchise player, where he was able to come off the bench and just shoot. Perfect situation right???? It would be if he could buy some new knees with all that money. Agent Zero showed flashes, but he still hasnt recovered. Pre-season Not So Surprising - Greg Oden gets hurt. Melo gets traded. Tim Duncan retires.
Reality: Check.
Pre-season First Team - Howard, Dookie, LeBron, Wade, Kobe
Reality: Swap Wade with DRose MVP. Nobody honestly saw Rose make that leap did they? Cmon...be for real.
Pre-season Second Team - Amare, Pau Gasol, Deron Williams, Joe Johnson, Carmelo
Reality: Ouch. No Joe, DWill or Melo. Dirk and Westbrook. Yes that same Westbrook. 
Pre-season Third Team - Al Jefferson, Chris Paul, Monta Ellis, Bosh, Rose.
Reality: At least I got CP3. Aldridge, ZBo, Horford and Ginobili. Manu should gotten Comeback POY if there is such an award. And what can I say about ZBo....dominated and retired the Spurs in the Playoffs. 

The Crying Game

1. The Crying game....... Watsup with the Miami Heat?

KeFarin: So, I know the song says "Big Girls don't cry," but this here is ridiculous.  The Heat are looking dejected on the floor and apparently in the locker room too.  After the Bulls defeated the Heat on Sunday, Heat Coach Eric Spoelstra did the unforgivable.  He told the media wolves that some of the guys were so upset at the loss that they were crying.  There is no crying in Baseball ( A League of their Own), but I know for sure that there is no crying in the NBA.  Anyway... the Heat have lost 5 in a row, looking for 6 if the Lakers have anything to say about it on Thursday night...

DProfessor: So, didnt we say the same thing, minus the tears about the Lakers? I know I know, the Lakers are the two-time defending champs, the Heat aint won nothing, bluh bluh bluh. Having watch these guys play 40 mins of hell and then 8 mins of shame every game is disturbing. Do I think this will happen in the playoffs, not so much. But at the same time I do think it is overblown. If anything, Bosh and Spolestra need to see who stays over the summer, they have been awful. No bench rotation, no toughness, no rings. Chris Webber summed it all up HERE.

2. Lakers Undefeated Since Allstar Break

DProfessor: I believe we said that this is not April and the Lakers will be ok.....and they have been just that. Ron Artest in back in therapy, Kobe is well Kobe, and Pau has bloomed into a Black Swan. I hate to say it looks like they are on cruise control but......who really can push them in the West.

KeFarin: So, it is finally back to business as usual in LA.  They are 7-0 since the break, and look to be in playoff form after the dominating win over the NBA's team with the best record, San Antonio Spurs.  The West is still jam packed at the top, but the Lakers look prime for another run at the championship.  

 3. How far can Rose and the Bulls go in the Playoffs?

KeFarin: So Derrick Rose and the Bulls are looking unstoppable right about now.  Derrick Rose is looking quite MVPish if y'all haven't been paying attention.  This team is in my opinion, the deepest team in the league right now. Derrick Rose is the clear leader here so we know who's gonna have the ball in his hands at the end of the game.  This is one of the quickest teams in the league and the best ( you heard me, best) defensive team in the league.  Numbers don't lie.  This team is a year early to the "Contender Party," but will have no problem playing the crasher role.  With Miami in decline, Boston losing Perkins, and Orlando... nevermind, the Bulls look to be in prime position to beat anyone.

DProfessor: The Bulls are a good solid team. The Bulls are really nice. I don't think this is their year. When was the last time a team won it all with one playmaker, one post scorer, and hustle players? I'll wait....

The names that come to mind are Heat and Wade, Shaq and Kobe, and the like. I think the Bulls are getting there fast, but they are no better than Cleveland from past 3 years. 

4. NCAA Tourney Time....

KeFarin: The best sports time in the year is upon us!  The NBA playoff caliber games, The start of the baseball season, and The NCAA tournament.  I will have at least Bracket sheets, and all of em' will be wrong.  Don't you just love it?  Anyway: Ohio State is my pick.  Big Ten back on top!

DProfessor: I'm not making any prediction until the brackets are out. I have Ohio St and San Diego St in final four. You can watch every game this year thanks to Turner Broadcasting. TV will be on overload for TBS, Tru TV, CBS, and somthing else for like 4 days in a row.

5. Brandon Davies of BYU suspended for having sex

KeFarin: Okay, Okay, Okay.  Let's put this to bed.  You take scholarship at school that prohibits tea, tobacco, alcohol and SEX!  Are you crazy?  You break the rules, you deal with the punishment.  I know it wasn't his first time.  He just happened to get caught this time.  You playing ball at BYU, What you expect!!!!

DProfessor: So, who snitched on him? Did he submit his video to darmdorm? I'm just saying......

6. Tiki Barber return?

DProfessor: Does Tiki have some child support payments we don't know about? His ex-wife must have told him she was gonna do the next season of Housewives and air out some dirty secrets. Either that or Ronde was braggin that he was soft at the last family bbq and Tiki would not let that go. 

KeFarin: So let me get this right.  Guy leaves team after three consecutive career years to pursue broadcasting career.  Year after guy leaves-SUPER BOWL!  Guy is terrible and now works for Yahoo! Sports.  Oh and he recently got divorced, and is 36 years old.  C'mon Son! Getdafuckouttaherewitdatbullshit!

 

7. Plaxico Burress is set to be released from prison in June

KeFarin: As long as he's in playing shape, why can't he come back and play at a high level in the NFL.  I say, come to the Bears.  We need a good possession receiver.

DProfessor: Unless Plax had a date with the the Booty Warrior, he should still be a viable WR in the National Football League. Now if there is a strike, Plax might not be the best stickup man, but Antonio Pierce might be available as a driver.

8. Ghostface blog

DProfessor: I havent seen so many nahmeans and ayos and n#gs since high school. A few of my favorite lines from just the recent post:

Sons rhymes is softer than two niggas sharin a umbrella 

Ayo the nigga so soft his heart probably got a mink jacket on n shit

That nigga Drake is the same age that Biggie was when he passed son. If that nigga die tomorrow you think niggas is gon be thinkin bout that nigga 14 years after he died...talkin bout "Damn...son was too ill...too ill". Nah g. They might say "Ayo remember that nigga Drake? Word I think son had progesterone in his blood n shit son. 

http://bigghostnahmean.blogspot.com/

KeFarin: I promise that I have not laughed that much in my life.  This guy, whoever it is, needs to find a narrator and come out with the audio series.  This sh*t is classic.  These stories are unbelievable: Nas flying out of the studio on a 7 foot falcon, Kanye popping Ne-Yo in the skull with his belt buckle, Raekwon being the flyest chubby nigga in the hood, and Drake being a back seat nigga.  I promise, whoever authored these tales has remarkable talent.  I can hear the Wallabee Champ saying every word!!! 

In Closing We gotta get back to the Heat - 

I know we are beating a dead horse but I thought this was hilarious.  

On twitter, one of the trending topics was "#LastTimeTheHeatWon, here are a few of the responses:

#LastTimeTheHeatWon " Gas was only 99cent
#LastTimeTheHeatWon DMX was sober!
#lasttimetheheatwon busta rhymes had dreads

#lasttimetheheatwon Rick Ross was skinny

#LastTimeTheHeatWon Chris Bosh was Starring in Jurassic Park

#lasttimetheheatwon blackplanet was the hottest thing on the internet

#lasttimetheheatwon lebron had a hairline

Back with SUPER 10

1. NFL - Superbowl Predictions
Ebizz: Black n yellow Black n yellow Black n yellow............ Crown em.....
DProfessor: Maybe they can get the Black Eye Peas to remix with Wiz because the crowd was showing him no love.


2. NFL MVP
Ebizz: Mr. Brady got that. Vick was a close second place. In fact I would give him most improved or something like that. but Brady put up some crazy numbers
DProfessor: Mr. Perfect Brady won the popularity contest. Vick didnt have enough games under his resume to compete. I guess Revis gets Defensive Player of Year. Rex Ryan wins FootLocker gift card.

3. NFL play of the year
DProfessor: Troy Polamolecules doing the Lambeau Leap over the Ravens offensive line. Dude is ridiculous. Surprisingly, his presence on the field makes all the difference. During the last two seasons, the Steelers are 17-4 when Polamalu plays but 5-7 when he doesn't. He missed 11 games last season with a pair of left knee injuries. Numbers don't lie, people do.

Ebizz: Marshawn Lynched a few saints when he assaulted that defense with a nasty stiff arm to top off the run. What a better time than the playoffs huh? I consider that payback for what happened to my Vikes last year.

4. Rookie of the year
DProfessor: The easy answer is Bradford. The Rams gave the young guy zero help in skilled positions. He should have been walking around with the Jay Cutler face on the sidelines. Honorable mention: Legarrette '50Tyson' Blount (Tampa Bay), McCourty (NE), of course Su.
Ebizz: Its hard to answer this because I really have no answer... maybe Bradford(Rams), Blount(Tampa Bay), of Su(Detroit) in any order.

5. Most disappointing NFL team this post season
Ebizz: First of all how do you get a name like Matty Ice and melt when the heat is on? Them Dirty Birds flew south but got that butt spanked in a place that was said to be the hardest place to win a game. yea right they proved that theory wrong.
DProfessor: The Patriots. Either the dynasty is ending or they are cursed. Havent won a game since the helmet catch.

6. NBA Rookie of the year so far
DProfessor: Let's see, Blake Griffin is on tv every night and his team couldn't stop a nose bleed. Blake Griffin is going to make All-Star team. Blake Griffin is going to win the Dunk Contest and complete first ever jump over the backboard dunk. Should I say more......
Ebizz: We should have just given it to Blake Griffin a long time ago. John Wall will be a great NBA player for years to come. He has proven that. He is still very young tryin to lead a franchise and that takes time. Griffin took a year off recovering from an injury and that has changed his life.......

7. Heat check....
Ebizz: They are who we thought they are... a great one on one team that has shown that they are cupcake in the middle, and if one of the big two goes down they resemble the Miami/Cavaliers of last year. But we will get a real chance to gauge how good they are towards the end of the season though. Oh yea... sux to be in Cleveland right about now
DProfessor: Teams currently with better record than Heat: Lakers, Spurs, Celtics, thats it. Of these 4 teams, the only surprise is Spurs. They are who we thought they were. Contenders.

8. Most surprising player so far in the NBA
DProfessor: Can you heard of this bama from Oklahoma named Blake Griffin? I didn't think he would be this exciting, but geez louise. He is a gazelle on fast break and has put up some double doubles like Kevin Love. All-Star.
Ebizz: Give Kevin the love he deserves. One of the few White boys out here showing that they still here lol... He is putting up some monster numbers that remind me of how he did things in UCLA. My boy Monte Ellis is consistently proving that he is an elite and slept on player as well. When they mention the best guards in the NBA it confuses me to see his name is never mentioned. Check the stats.









9. Most surprising team
Ebizz: New Orleans Hornets. A healthy Chris Paul can change a whole franchise.
DProfessor: Chicago. DRose is making some real noise for MVP.

10. Most overrrated team
Ebizz: Those New York Knicks. They got off to a great start but are slowly coming back down to earth. They are proving they need Carmelo this season. Obviously the guys around Amare are good, but not great which makes them replaceable. They need alot more consistency, which is what Melo brings.
DProfessor: Orlando. Sure they updated their roster and got rid of some dead weight. But does that jump them in front of Miami or Boston, or Chicago. Neahhhh.

If your NBA team cant even reach the playoffs, you need to study the game more and like e-40 told Rasheed Wallace, " stick to basketball nicca"

Christmas Heat Wave

Ask yourself a question....
Self....Yessum....
Do you love Christmas time?....No not really, I spend a lot of money I don't have for no apparent reason to please a few other people and get some emotional boost from seeing them happy.
Self, you are rambling again......Ok. Sorry short answer is yes, Christmas is cool.
What if I told you the Miami Heat play LA Lakers, Orlando Magic plays the Boston Celtics on Christmas?.....I would tell you my wife and kids will not be too happy with me.
What if I told you that action actually starts off with the newlook New York Knicks vs the Baby Bulls followed up with Dookie Durant vs Denver Nuggets.....Do you know a good divorce lawyer...I might need one?

Following subplots
Miami Heat, media conglomerate and summertime news makers, ride their 12 game winning streak and possibly 14 game winning streak into Kobe Bryant and the two-time defending Champs LA Lakers in Los Angeles. This game has been circled on both team's calendars. For Miami, this is the ultimate litmus test, can you beat the champs in a big game? For LA, this is the statement game of I don't care who signed this summer, the title goes through LA. The best player in the game goes against the next 2 best players. The best big man in the West vs the worst frontline assembled since Vietnam.

Orlando fired more people this week than Washington Redskins. Look at these salaries and tell me which team is Orlando:
Team A

Player 1 - $18.8 mill

Player 2 - $13.5 mill

Player 3 - $11.8 mill

Player 4 - $8.4 mill

Team B

Player 1 - $17.7 mill
Player 2 - $14.4 mill
Player 3 - $10.2 mill
Player 4 - $16.6 mill

You guessed it, team B is Orlando with Arenas, JRich, Turkoglu, and Howard respectively. Can you name Team A? Does it look like Miami didn't spend their money wisely this summer? They got LeBron, Wade, Bost for $14.5/each.  I'm just saying. You can't cry foul and claim you thought guys were more "competitive" or whatever and then go out and follow the mold. Meanwhile Boston is riding a 13 game streak of their own, and you bets believe they want to prove that they are still the best Big 3 and 1 in the league.

Team A - San Antonio Spurs - Duncan, Parker, Ginobili, Richard Jefferson.

NFL Quick note: DeSean Jackson just reached Primetime level of do not kick the ball to him at any point in the game status.

Cleveland ROCKS

He think he Big Meach
Larry Hoover
Whippin Work
Hallejuah

He MC Hammer.
I wish LeBron the best tonight. I have 3 scenarios for how the game will probably play out.
Scenario 1
LeBron goes Kobe on the Cavs. 81 pts. Fire from every angle to the point where after he dunks on Jamarrio Moon or JJ Hickson. Or maybe he can poster Anderson Varejao like this....

If he doesn't go for 81, slight exaggeration, I really expect him to go for 40pts and triple double.

Scenario 2
DWade carries the load and LeBron plays clean up. I am sure LB is going to have some pregame jitters. Its hard to spot a sniper in a crowded arena I've heard. So after the initial tip and hoopla has calmed down and LB finally hits a few shots, gets to the line to the biggest chants below, it will be an orchestrated blow out by DWade.

Scenario 3
LeBron sticks the place out and Cleveland sticks around late enough in the game to make it enjoyable. We know Miami is going to do everything humanly possible to get LeBron the ball early and often. But LeBron has put up some stink bomb games before. Let's say Cleveland gets hot from outside with Boobie and Mo, then what? DWade is not himself, Spice Bosh is on the trading block for a real superstar, and LeBron has probably received so much hate mail this week, his nerves might not be able to handle this situation. How about my main man Big Z coming through down the stretch with his 15 ft corner jumper? That would be pretty damn funny.

Here is the official play by play orchestrated chants for tonights game.

De-Lon-Te! De-Lon-Te! (To the beat of “Lets-Go-Cavs”)

6:00-0:00 4th Quarter
Throughout the last half of the Fourth Quarter:
Cleve-land Rocks!
Cleve-land Rocks!
Show your civic pride, make Cleveland Proud!
