Where Will Amazing Happen This Year? (Hint: Not Phoenix)

Which isn't to say that I'm not interested. I'll be rooting for Sheed and Dice over in Detroit, but it's kind of tough to give them much of a chance with LeBron pretty much destroying everything in his path. It was actually pretty funny when Kevin Harlan proclaimed that Bron had "NO REGARD FOR HUMAN LIFE!" the other year, but that statement is becoming more and more appropriate as the games go by. By the way, that particular call by Kevin Harlan is probably #2 all time in Harlan lore, second only to:



"OH, HE JUST SUCKED THE GRAVITY RIGHT OUT OF THE BUILDING!" Harlan is seriously the man. Yeah, yeah, he reuses lines from time to time, but what play-by-play guy doesn't? Nobody can effectively cap a moment quite like him these days.

The team that I'm really pulling for is the Hawks, if only because of Joe Johnson. Unfortunately for Atlanta, there are probably four individual players in the league that you almost have to fear, and Miami's D-Wade is one of the them (the other 3 being Kobe, LeBron, CP3). I can't see Wade singlehandedly taking four games from this Atlanta squad, but it should be a fun series.



Check the pair of Old Love XX3s on JJ's feet. Maybe that ATL/Boston series is why I love those particular shoes so much.

Damn, I didn't know T-Mac could create black holes on the court.

Hoping Boston has a repeat. I didn't buy those Dunks for nothing...
