    Memphis, Miami can't handle the frontcourt of Randolph, Gasol, Arthur, and Haddidi. Not to mention Memphis has a ton of defensive guards they can throw at Wade/James. Battier, Allen, Gay(I know he's injured but this is hypothetical). Mayo and Young aren't great defenders but they are big athletic bodies and won't get pushed around too easily.

    mavs are the only team with very good chance to beat miami. the thunder would get steam rolled.

    the lakers couldnt beat miami when they were struggling to find themselves in the regular season, you can elminate kobe by throwing wade and lebron at him, gasol cant guard bosh on the outside. and if there was one team the heat actually had more depth than it was LA

    Chicago, Memphis, Lakers, Dallas....

    Bulls did a really good job and the series could've easily gone 7. With an upgrade to the SG position and continuous improvement from Rose/Noah/Gibson etc they're there. I think the Heat and Bulls will have a fierce rivalry for the next 5 years bare minimum to determine who comes out of the East every year.

    Memphis' size, depth and athletic guards would've given Miami some troubles.

    If Gasol and Bynum had a pair.... Lakers would beat the Heat or at least push it to 7.

    I think Dallas will win it all this year. They're deep, experienced, skilled, have the size and a lot of their guys have been so close only to lose. They've played the best ball in these playoffs, clicking on all cylinders and hitting big time shots. It's their time.
