Miami should win tonight. They better win or they take a big chance of having to win 1 on the road in OKC. Even MJ had to hit a last second shot in Game 6 against Utah after not closing the deal in Chicago after being up 3-1. This is game 7 for both teams as Lebron said in his interview.

They just ran into a team that wanted it more. They will learn and be better for it. Right now LBJ gets 1 monkey off his back. It will be a Finals rematch I believe. Don't see any teams beating either for awhile.

Well he better get used to it. Pat Riley just said he knows they will meet again. Unless injuries come into play, the West is OKCs and the East is too weak especially with injuries the Bulls have and the Celts being old.

Yep. He said because OKC didn't get rattled, and because the Thunder had Mo Cheeks and Derek Fisher part of the organization, too. LOL.
Just kidding, JR. LOL.

I sure did and I still think they are a better team. They just ran into a hungry Heat team.

They had their opportunity. Don't think they got rattled. Frustrated yes. They will learn from this and be hungry next season.

Indiana and Chicago will give Miami some opposition. Chicago just needs another scoring option and to stay healthy. Indiana just needs to play smarter.
In the West, I don't believe you just give it to the Thunder. They will have plenty of challenges with the teams in the West. Just keep your eye out for the moves made in the off-season.

Re: 2012 NBA Championship: GM 5
Indiana got to first keep their front office together and they have no go to player. Not enough talent to get by Miami. Chicago got injuries. Rose got hurt in the playoffs and he ain't going to be 100 % for awhile. Kendrick mentioned that somebody else is having surgery and might be out for most of the season. Also you have to remember this new CBA makes it hard for teams to just get great overnight, plus there is the chemistry thing that other teams will have to go through if they makeover their teams. Like Riley said tonight, you will see this Finals again.

Derrick Rose might not be back until well after the All-Star break. Luol Deng, after the Olympics, will probably require surgery on his left wrist. He will miss the first couple of months of the regular season. That's two All-Stars out right there. Chicago will not be able to compete with Miami until after the 2012-2013 season.
