True. I don't see them getting past the Heat though.

I still have OKC-Heat... but I have to admit, I underestimated the Spurs, counted them out, but now I wouldnt be surprised to see them in the finals against Heat. Tim Duncan rematch vs LeBron, remember Timmy saying to LeBron 'this is gonna be your league for years to come, so, thanks for giving this title to me for now' or something like that after 07 Finals? It would make for an interesting series, but so would OKC - Heat

Bulls have no chance against Thunder / Spurs / Heat now that D.rose is out. They lost to the 76ers a few days ago in game 2

They were screwed from the start, even more so when 3 starters are out.
Knicks are making Carmello play all their minutes because he's their only real offensive shooter. The Heats are doing a good job double teaming on him so that their only offensive shooter doesn't make many points. It's not possible for the knicks to win against a heavy defensive team like the heat when mello is getting worn out like that. They need to rotate the ball more and make in shots so the DT falls off mello- but even then... it's in compromise if the knicks can still win the heat.

Jeremy Lin had surgery on his knee. He will probably be out for the playoff season since he's not in shape yet. (Still rusty & recovering) It would've been nice if Lin played PG... he gets the ball moving unlike B.Davis and Bibby who are really slow and can't hustle [They just camp behind the 3 pt line, you hardly see them go in & attempt a layup].

Sad to see, especially knowing just what Baron Davis is capable of too. Bibby not so much.
