    Poll incoming.

    Blah blah blah Heatles will win it all blah blah blah.

    The Heat were projected to run roughshod through everyone to repeat as champs. And that might still happen.

    But who do YOU want to see in the Finals? And why? The final four teams have now been established.

    I personally want to see Memphis v. Indiana. It's a bit of a mirror match, should they meet in the Finals.

    - The number 1 and 2 defensive teams in the league, in the regular season (iirc)
    - Gasol / Randolph v. Hibbert / West will be grit and grind.
    - Lockdown defenders in Allen and George.
    - Underrated PGs in Conley and Hill
    - WON'T be as boring, as SA v. Detroit! (Hopefully. lol)

    Grizzlies v. Indiana. Two small market team that win by committee. Two teams that never one a championship. Two awesome frontcourts. Two teams that have excelled without their big name SF (Gay and Granger).

    Seeing as that probably won't happen, Spurs Heat would be cool. The old big three against the new one, and Lebron's revenge on the Spurs. Grizzlies Heat might be good too, I guess.

    Memphis vs Indiana as well for me.

    Spurs and Heat have been there already.

    Some new blood is nice.

    This is a star driven league. Memphis vs. Indiana would be a great story but would be the least watched finals probably ever. Of the teams left, the most interesting finals would be Spurs vs. Heat.

    Heat vs Spurs. Lebron vs the Spurs. A lot of the same guys that swept him in his first finals appearance. A little bit of sweet revenge for him if he can get it done.


    I understand the guys that want to see Pacers vs Memphis though.

    Pacers vs Memphis, just to show that you don't need superstars or superfriends team to make the finals.
    Wouldn't mind a Pacers vs Spurs final either.

    I think Memphis vs. Heat would be a better matchup.

    But it will be Heat vs. Spurs.

    I have to say Indiana from the east because it would mean the Heat got beat :grin:

    Spurs for the west. I like the Grizzlies, but one last hoorah for Tim Duncan.

    Love to see teams that've never won a title before in the big dance.

    I want to see a Spurs vs. Heat finals just to see the Heat lose lol. Quite simply, the spurs are playing chess while everyone else is playing checkers. San antonio will win in six games, easily. BOOK IT.
