Well the 2011 NBA Finals are now 2 games in and the Series is Tied 1-1

Are you...

Team Lebron

or

Team Dirk

--------Schedule---------

  • Game 1 DAL 84 MIA 92
  • Game 2 DAL 95 MIA 93
  • Game 3 SUN 6/5 8:00pm ET @ Dallas
  • Game 4 TUE 6/7 9:00pm ET @ Dallas
  • Game 5 THUR 6/9 9:00pm ET @ Dallas
  • Game 6 SUN 6/12 8:00pm ET* @ Miami
  • Game 7 TUE 6/14 9:00pm ET* @ Miami


Now I know there are a lot of Lebron Fans here so i want to make this interesting,I'll make you a bet. ..If the Miami Heat Win the NBA Championship, I will 'say' that Lebron is the greatest player EVER and I will never post on OT Forums again.

Who will Emerge as Champions?

No offense to laker fans, but I never really thought the lakers were that good, their just tall and experienced.

You mean that high profile team that just quit at the last min and all 4 of it's games.... I mean at least the Celtics fought back, even with their best player playing with one arm.

I'm talking about the lakers. They fell a part and turn on their belly's like fish on dry land. While the Celtics fought hard to the very end.

Tired? How do you know this? Thats the first time I've heard about it, I would think all the other NBA teams are tired as well from the long grueling season.

He still beat him and I made that statement first. On top of that the Heat had a bad start. Losing 9 games, then they did a 21-2 run.....They Beat the Celtics that beat them 3 out of 4 times.....Then they beat the Bull who beat the team 4out of 4 times....How is that quitting.

I didn't say no skill, I said lack of skill. To me they just aren't as talented as a team like the Mavs or Heat.

While the Celtic played hard even with their bast player playing with one arm. The Lakers have a completely healthy team and they got swept. The Celtic best man got injured and they won 1 game...

Heat will win the top seat. ;)

The only problem will be Dirk, there is no good big defensive men on Miami, but if they can execute the double team on Dirk well the rest is gonna be cheese.

Really, This one of the most exciting finals in years. Even if you hate both teams...You still have an opinion as now everyone else, and your still going to watch the finals even just to boo at the Heat. And as much hate the Heat is getting, they are still getting more attention for it. Heat has a funny way of making things more popular. Example: Howard Stern....More people listen to him just to find dirt to use against him to fine him of disorderly conduct.
