    Were you against the Heat vs Celtics, but now want to see Lebron vs Durant.

    If you are an unbiased basketball fan you would want a Lebron/Durant matchup. It would be epic.

    However, I'm not sure Miami has the mental toughness to win the elimination game on the road.

    Anyone that loves basketball wants a Thunder-Heat Finals. My heart was saying this but my head was saying Spurs-Heat. What an amazing Finals it might be. I have a feeling that it can still happen.

    Durant vs. LeBron would be cool. But first and foremost, I don't want KG to win. One of the biggest douches in the league.

    I dont care for either the Heat or the Celtics.

    However, I would like to watch Durant vs James in the finals.

    Westbrook vs Wade would be fun as well.

    Harden vs nobody on the heat should be interesting.

    Totally disagree. I love basketball and hate watching the heat play. They are the most boring team I've watched in a long time. Nothing but one on one basketball, free throws, terrible officiating, etc. Definitely not a type of game/series I wanna see in the finals.

    As long as the Heat lose this year I'm happy. The sooner the better.

    Don't really care at this point.

    If the Heat lose the fall out will be a lot of fun.

    If they win the Finals matchup will be fun as well.

    If the Celtics make it and the Thunder win the championship, they will have beaten the last 4 most recent NBA champions

    I want the Heat and Mr. James to lose, so I want a OKC-Boston Finals. If, however, the Celtics manage to not close out the series, it's Thunder and lightning, baby.

    Wow, I didn't realize that.

    A true passing of the torch.

    And regardless who they face, the Thunder will have beaten teams who won 11 out of last 13 titles. (Wade and Boston both have one of them.)

    I'm a Miami hater no doubt. I want the Heat to fail and fail in a big way.

    Celtics over the Heat, I hope.

    I hate both Miami and Boston, but Miami more. So I want the Celtics to win.

    As someone pointed out, Heat is not fun to watch whether you hate Superfriends or not.

    The only reason for me to want to see Thunder-Heat is the Durant-LeBron subplot. But that's not enough for me to hope that.

    Conclusion: I still want the Heat to lose. But if they win, I am fine with watching OKC stomp them senseless. And watching Boston get stomped is kind of fun too.

    miami still seems more like a final boss level for some reason.

    I think most everyone except for real boston fans now want to see bron vs. Durant. Even the most extreme lebron haters- if he failed on the biggest stage, with a 100% bosh, or sweep, or a couple of bad 4th's etc.

    Or you could say that the Lakers have been or have lost to the champs for the last 4 recent years

    Nope. I like the Celtics and I respect Rondo. I hope Celtics can come up with the upset and beat Miami.
