They definitely have a good shot this year. Their line up is pretty solid from top to bottom. Although I think Memphis will be a tough out for them in the second round. Memphis's frontcourt (Gasol and Z-Bo) will put pressure on Duncan on both ends of the court, which could wear on him during a long series. Further, Tony Allen will play tough defense on Tony Parker. That might be a key matchup since Parker is certainly the catalyst of the Spurs' offense.

Derek Rose torn ACL done for the year.

Hard to see anyone in the East stopping the Heat now.

Celtics play terribly, can't hit an outside shot without Ray Allen and still take it down to the last minute against the Hawks in Atlanta. Rondo bumps a ref after a critical bad call with 41 seconds left; a suspension would be devastating. But he really should have kept his temper in check.

True but Lebron and Co. will find a way to choke.

cHeat lose. Maybe we will see the first 3-0 comeback in NBA history at Lebron and Co.'s expense.

yeah, right!!

Sounds as realistic as No1 marauder predicting the Reds to win it all in baseball.

Is it really that unrealistic when you have The Frozen One and OverWaded on the same team? =P

Man, JaVale McGee has so much potential. He probably isn't going to attain it though since he is about as smart as a bag of rocks.

Also, it sucks to see Baron go down like that. You could tell by his reaction after he fell that he knew his career was over.
