Completely expected in the East. If I was asked to predict I'd pick the Heat too. Predictions of course are pretty meaningless.
Disgusted by the dominance of LA as the pick in the West. Is it safe to say that the new LA team has shown absloutely NOTHING to date? Lakers are a paper tiger until proven otherwise. They should get some respect based on individual histories but not 25 out of 35 -- that is an unwarranted level of respect and really shows LA bias IMO.
