for the love of everything right in the world... don't allow that one trick freak to win a title.  Dwight howard is big, strong and can jump.  A poor mans Shaq.  Least deserving champion ive seen in ages.  

Somehow I feel like an Orlando title cheapens the game.

Honestly, it looks like there is no great team this year.

Someone's gotta win.

With the way this game is looking you might as well just start making the gold and purple championship rings.  You guys will regret rooting against LeBron.

I stopped rooting when the Celts got eliminated.

Though I guess I'd like to see Denver beat LA.
Yup

3-1.  The Magic could have easily swept this series.

Kobe Bryant FTW!

Hope you guys are happy with Phil Jackson taking a wiz on Red's grave.  I blame you.

Now we'll have to listen to 'Phil Jackson is the best coach ever' arguments forever.

'But he has the most titles durrrr.'

You're trippin.  The Lakers take entire playoff games off.  It's over.  Lakers win the title.  I couldn't be more depressed about this.  Glad I'm getting it out of the way weeks in advance.

This gives me a lot of hope for the Celtics next year. If they can take Orlando to game 7 without KG, I am feeling good about our chances to reach the Finals again. Just get a Wing Man Like Pietrus to come off the bench and a legit backup C and we will be good to go

Honestly, I'd root for LA against Cleveland. I've stated this on other threads before, but as much as I hate LA, I still respect them. They respect us too, as they should, considering we've won 17 titles. I've lived most of my life in Ohio, and can honestly say most Cavs fans are bandwagon fans, and have no respect - or knowledge - of Boston's tradition. Added to that, I've never seen a team get so much preferential treatment as the Cavs have since LeCrabDribble entered the league. So as much as it'd pain me to say it, I'd definitely root for LA over Cleveland.

PS - There are indeed basketball gods. Cleveland in no way deserved to win that game.
