NBA Finals Predictions

Here is my prediction for the Finals:

One team will win four boring defensive 76-68 type games........thats it. Just watch, its bound to happen. This is like watching a pitchers duel in baseball except there are no line drives, diving catches, remarkable double plays, dominating strikeouts. Every single out is either a pop-up to the shortstop or a bunt that went foul for a third strike. When I think of exciting players, do I think of Tim Duncan and Ben Wallace? Tony Parker and Chauncy Billups? Of course not. I think of man-child Amare Staudomire and Mr. Canada Steve Nash. The only way I am going to watch this series is if I start betting on it, which I probably will do. I would imagine the Under would be a lock in at least 5 out of 7 possible games.

Dwyane Wade reminded me of myself back in JV ball, where I would run down the court and slam into the lane trying some double clutch, behind the back flip shot that almost always missed ackwardly. What was he, like 0-6 in the fourth quarter with all 6 shots being Jordan-esque miracles. What a great way to end the season and prove to everyone that Skip Bayless is right. Wade is a hot-shot who fails to make anyone around him better. The comparisons to MJ are like saying I could be the next Ron Jeremy after an alcohol induced sexual encounter lasted 2 and a half hours. Man I love giving apt analogies. My point is, a great season is something to be proud of, a great few seasons and we can get excited, a great career then lets see whom he lines up with.
