The 2011 NBA Finals Start Tonight!! Mavericks vs. Heat

It is finally here! The NBA finals. I recognize that my team is at home but I love THE GAME! Why would I not watch quality basketball just because my team went home?

The Mavs have bullied their way through the playoffs focused on changing the perception that they were a soft team. Jason Kidd is showing again that truly good point guards can play into their 30’s.

The Heat have formed what everyone in the league was afraid of. A super Powers NBA team, kinda like in “Space Jam”

I keep hearing people say it’s a league plot to have the Heat win the finals, but is that smart as the CBA is being negotiated? If the Heat win, is that for or against the owners desire for a hard salary cap?

Bitter Cavs fans have turned into Dallas Mavs fans in order to see LeBron fail. They’ve even created a Dallas Cavs logo that says defeat pure evil.

Angry Cleveland Cavs fans

Really Cavs fans, still can’t let go huh:

Here’s the finals schedule on ABC:

For the record, I’m taking the Heat in a battle! I still don’t believe in the Mavericks. Sorry, I just don’t but I can’t wait for the entertainment this series will bring.
