Can we just face it the Heat and Spurs have been the 2 best teams basically all season and deserve to be in the Finals.
Hardly a shock call given they were the 2 top teams, but i was certain they'd both make it in Feb, cant see why so many people thought the Heat wouldnt. Sure teams can beat them in a game, but couldnt see anyone beating either in 7 game series.
So many theories out there its crazy, people were thinking the Lakers could make a run from the bottom half, really? I never saw that happpening.
Once the series was 3-2 up Heats way i knew they would win it, they would have rarely lost 2 in a row especially to the same team twice in a row.
I think its just LeBron bashers that thought/hoped they wouldnt, but surely most expected the Heat to come out of the East.
Refs aint perfect but i dont think they ever conspire/fully decide games, mistakes happen, Heat are better than the Pacers, it is how it is. So lets be real, not blame refs etc,
LeBron (love him or hate him) is the best player in the world,and by a bit of a margin, him + Wade in decent form is probably the best combo in the league certainly better than George + Hibbert.
For the Pacers to have won the series imo Hibbert would have had to average around 25pts 15 rebounds, and George would have had to basically match LeBron, to me neither was ever going to happen across 7 games, they are great young players however, if they stick together and improve a little over the next few years their time may come! I give full credit to them, played a great series.
The Spurs will give the Heat a real run for their money as they are a great all round team that runs like clockwork, and they also have a big body in Duncan to trouble them, but im still backing the Heat in a tight 6 or 7 game series. As a Aussie id love to see Mills and Baynes get some court time and a ring, just dont see it happening this year.
