Miami Wins in 5 or 6

[TheMan]

Giving up on the Spurs already? You can tell yourself whatever it takes to make yourself feel better about Miami winning another. We both know though that in reality you will be crying like a little b.itch again.

I still got the Spurs because LeBron has a habit of underperforming in the Finals but his stacked team could very well bail him out again.

Still got the Spurs in 7 doe...

[STATUTORY]

spurs ain't got no shot. I hope Lebron dunks on Duncan every game in this series

The Spurs also have this thing called team basketball....

Should anyone take anything you say seriously?

[lilteapot]

I agree with OP for once. With Wade healthy, Lebron playing as good or better than last year and the team being as healthy as it can be I don't see the Spurs winning. The main difference here is Bellinelli and he's not a game changer...Kawkhi is good and got better but I don' think he's good enough to be a game changer here

Miami's at an advantage if Kawhi keeps shooting 3's

Spurs didn't add anything that should worry Miami. The Heat have healthy Wade. That trumps anything SA can bring to the table. The Spurs have no one that can guard him. And if Bosh bothers to show up to the Finals this year, the Spurs will get crushed.

Manu has been playing much better than last year, plus HCA, Khawi and Diaw have also improved.

Tough series that can go either way IMO

This will be another very competitive series. Spurs collectively guard lebron as well as any team in the league and play smart savvy basketball - exactly what it takes to compete with miami

yea this the 98 finals all over again

1) I really hope it's a close and competitive series because the Spurs can win it all at home in Game 7.

2) But it could also be a loop-sided series where it end in 6 at Miami. Loop-sided as in Miami takes a 3-1 lead, loses Game 5 on the road and then just stomp 'em out in 6 at home type of loop-sided. Kinda like what they just did with the Pacers. Add-on: Spurs aren't the Pacers, not close but Heat being on another level above their competition is why the series could be loop-sided.

One of those scenarios will happen.

My heart wants it to be scenario #1 but my guts tells me scenario #2.

Spurs =/= Pacers

Spurs =/= Pacers

I knew somebody was gonna say that. Was gonna do an add-on about that but browsed around other threads.

LeBron & Heat being on another level is what I was meant. Like a dynasty level like the Shaq Lakers and Jordan's Bulls in terms of how big of a gap they are from their competition. Some teams are built like that where the only way they'll lose is if they beat themselves. Either on the court or off the court.

You have them winning in 6 in the finals thread. Getting nervous already? Ouch.

[mark henson 123]

the heat win in six

No, I firmly believe SA is the better team, it'll be a tight series. 6 or 7, not in 5 like some Heat homers are bluffing
