The Lakers/ Celtics dominated the 80s while a young scoring machine matured and the team around him got better. After the 1st year of the new decade he broke through and the torch was passed to the next dynasty. Now in 2011 the same scenario unfolds and the torch will be past to the next star. OKC wins it all.
I wish. Lakers win again.

Mostly due to working later in the evenings, but the Warriors having another mediocre season with no hope for the future had something to do with it.

I think so.
It's a toss up between the top 3, but I don't like the Celtics post trade. And Miami's depth behind the Big 3 doesn't excite me.
The Bulls play great team ball. Rose runs the squad, and defensively, they're very strong. Boozer and Noah would punish Bosh and Big Z down low if they met.

imo boston>bulls>heat
boston just turns it on in playoffs pierce just explodes and LBJ acually turns it down a notch and there lack of depth is very concerning bulls usually play around the same level

Boston was better, up until they traded Perk. Now they have nothing in the middle to scare people.
