    My prediction: Miami wins tonight and LeBron gets his first ring. The Thunder have the curse of the Sonics going for them and they always will. You can't just pluck a team from a city after 40 plus years by lying in the process and get away with it.

    What a win by Bron!!! and Heat…South Beach must be rocking…I wish i was there….

    Thunder were jolted by the 14 – 3point shots and Kudos to mike miller, 25 points from the bench….what a game he had.

    James Hardin was a flop in this series, Heat did an amazing job of guarding him. There was too much to ask from Durant and westbrrok, they needed someone else to fire besides Hardin, but Ibaka and company were not even close.

    the Thunder defense was horrible. What happened to James Harden and Serge Iblaka this series? I think Ibaka or Collison should have guarded LeBron, not Harden and Sefalosha. Why guard a 6'8 guy with a 6'6 defender? but Miami role players stepped up. LeBron drove dished it out to Battier, Chalmers, and Mike Miller and they were all hitting their shots. Throw in great performances by Wade and Bosh and you can't handle the Heat.

    JTCali.. Your analysis is right on the money.. i agree Bron should have been guarded by Collison or Ibaka even. i guess Scotty Brooks went for agility more than height… And Sefalosha is very very quick…..

    I am a Mavericks fan, and i was so so happy, when Mavs defeated the Heat last year…All my buddies, JJ, Dirk, Jason terry,, Chandler all were on a song. If Mark Cuban had not messed up with this winning formula , in order to create future cap space, i think Mavs could have gone for second glory this year…

    Yea, Dallas was impressive last year. Sucks they didn't resign Barea and Chandler. I am glad Dirk finally got his ring he deserved. i was routing for the Mavs hardcore last year.

    on a side note, i hate the 2-3-2 format. 3 straight games in one city is too much. times have changed and the NBA needs to get with it. teams have their own planes and it's not that hard to fly across the country anymore. if you're going to give a team 3 straight games in their city , make the finals 3-3-1.

    I agree, i never liked the 2-3-2 format…. I guess, there is not much we can do now, but hope that they change it from next year….

    As a mavs fan and lebron hater I loved the finals last year. Hopefully the mavs make some big moves this offseason, like Deron Williams. He has said that his favorite city to play in is Dallas, which is his hometown. If you guys haven't seen this already, here is a video of Mark Cuban destroying Skip Bayless this morning on first take: https://www.brobible.com/sports/video/mark-cuban-destroyed-skip-bayless.

    About the 2-3-2 format, it does not make any sense to me at all that the entire playoffs are 2-2-1-1-1 except for the NBA finals which are 2-3-2. You'd think that there would be some consistency and they would have only one format.

    skip baseless is a joke, he doesn't know anything about basketball. check out this sick Stephen A Smith video https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=kQnu83R5CuM
