A bit of NBA talk

So I've got a question for all you NBA fans :]
Who do you think will win the 2011 NBA Championship and who is your favorite current NBA player?

I believe that Miami Heat has the skill to take it out and win for 2011. Lakers however got the goal of a three-peat which will be pushing them so iunno ;o
Also the Celtics have Shaq, I wonder how that will turn out n_n
Favourite player in the league atm is probably Derrick Rose.

[quote=PinoyStylez]I see the Heat taking it out this year. For those saying they can't get past the Celtics, Lebron almost did pretty much single handedly and this season he's got Wade and Bosh. My favourite player is probably Kevin Garnett.[/quote]

Mhmm, there is quite a lot of truth to that.
KG is getting kinda old, I wonder if he'll retire soon ;o He still the man though.

Lakers, Heat, or Celtics will win.
Anyone else including the Magic would be a surprise.

[quote=faytoceanz3]Lakers will win this year again, but they will not win the following year because this year will be Phil Jackson's last year with the Lakers.

Lakers have added better depth for the bench. Matt barnes, Theo ratliff, steve blake, and 2 talented rookies.

The following year, we will probably be seeing the Miami Heat taking over.[/quote]

It's going to be either Lakers or Celtics again. The Heat may look good on paper, but it takes time for them to mesh. Sure, the Celtics were able to do it in `08, but that's because they all play different positions that complement each other. Ray Ray the sharp shooter, gets open looks from Pierce, their driver, who can dish it to KG, still a machine, for the dunk. Also, Rondo, Perkins and Big Baby have all developed their game skills considerably. Perkins is now more physical, Rondo has better ball handling and Big Baby has better perimeter shooting. Add in Shaq, and we have the championship on lock-down.

As for favorite player, it's D-Wade. Can't out speed the Flash.

Lakers will prbably win again. Heat needs a better bench and center if not they'll never get past Boston, which have like 6 centers now.
Favorite player : Kobe Bryant but rose is my second favorite =D
