    Wizards just showed how immature they are near the end of regulation...frustration pushing and shoving and the tie up as the Cavs were dribbling out the clock.

    Well you did say this
    with ZERO mention of the Rockets so yah I think that's how I read into it that you were blaming the Heat's star compilation on Stern.

    If you think Boston and LA don't have a chance to beat the Heat then why bother watching the league? Pass on this season and go with just the NFL.

    Good luck to you sir.

    I don't see how Celtics, Spurs and Bulls can challenge Heat. Thunders got hammered in the Finals and they're weaker or same at best while Heat got whole lot better. Lakers maybe the only contender pending health. There's no real excitement when watching game when the league is dominated by 1 or 2 team. Rockets is only thing left for me

    I watched for 2 min and switched because there's no point watching. Give me NFL/Texans over this boring **** any day.

    Thunders got hammered? Lost by 4, 6, 6 and sure got hammered in the closeout in Miami. But what is with the melodrama?

    SacTown must be getting the biggest boner from watching this Heat game.

    This is how the NBA has ALWAYS been.

    4-5 teams have a shot at it, the rest are just trying to get to that point.

    exactly. NBA isn't like the NFL where there's a hard salary cap that levels the playing field. Only a handful of teams have won it the past 20 years or so...it's not coincidence. rarely do small market teams win it all.

    I wasn't really interested in watching NFL before..especially compared to NBA games. The last few years, it has been the complete opposite.

    Maybe if the Rockets were good, I would probably be more interested. But right now, I don't plan on watching a single NBA game.

    i don't remember him using the rockets in a sentence once when discussing the trade, lol. I didn't care if he talked about us too much, but he made it seem like we were idiots for doing that trade or something.

    Yeah, definitely harder for small market teams in the NBA. They just have to have really good management and make smarter decisions. Teams like NYK can get away with doing stupid *** stuff for a whole decade and woo a star player like Melo to their team....teams like the Kings can't.

    It is what it is...but to say you'll stop watching now because the Heat look to be the best team...did people stop watching because of Jordan? I think the dominance of a player or team is what draws people to the NBA. It's the "Who will stop the Heat? Can they be stopped?" that makes it entertaining to some.

    If Dirk is out for more than a month Cuban is just going to throw in the towel, watch.

    So Lebron still puts up a 26-10 despite missing most of the second half? Looks like he hasn't missed a beat from his finals and Olympic play.
