With Harden gone and the arrival of D'Antoni over Phil, barring injuries, the Spurs have this title locked.
Wouldve happened last year but Harden got in the way.
Timmy getting #5 and cementing himself top 3 with MJ and KAJ
I am not the biggest Duncan fan but no other player playing today could win like he does with so little talent around him. Not even bron..

Yeah the Eastern side of the playoffs is just gonna be a waste of time. Complete garbage.
The West, however, is up for the grabs. Every playoff team in the the west will be competitive and capable of making some noise.

Have you looked at the Lakers squad? They look super stacked and possibly more than Miami but they have had injuries.

You forget that since their last chip, they have been playoff choke artists.

This. It's pissing me off now. I'll be stunned if they don't better the Lakers' streak.
It's not that they're too stacked. It's that they have the 2nd best player of all time (yeah, I said it!). Take him out and they're a good at best team. He demands so much attention that you need to double him and then he just passes it to wide open guys for 3. Don't double him and he's still scoring. Not to discredit the team but he's the difference maker. Without him teams like the Thunder, Spurs, Clippers would deal with them easily (if they even reached the finals which would be debatable)

You can laugh at me, but I still firmly believe the Knicks can and will defeat the Miami Heat.

Yup.. And the main reason they'll end up winning.
Say heat play Lakers(8 seed), Clippers, Spurs to make the finals in the west. I wouldn't say it was all that certain anymore.
Not to take away from Bron or wade or the heat.. They just have a stupid easy path to the finals where they'll only have one test instead of having 3 tests in the west.

Only team that can give the Heat an actual run in the Finals, and that's if absolutely everything goes right for us.

Miami would run the Spurs into the ground.

Spurs are built to beat the Heat but they're also notorious chokers themselves
