lol, heat over spurs!!!!

you ppl crack me up

[cheguevara]

that beatdown in LA took the Heat a couple of spots up. And dropped the lakers out of the top 5.

[u4lakers14]

5. Magic

4. Spurs

3. Heat

2. Mavs

1. Celtics

its really not bad but,,,,,,,,

the celtics just lost to the team that the mavericks just beat, not to mention the mavs beat the celtics head to head, have had a tougher schedule, and beat every other team on your top 5 including the heat twice.

i would swap your one and two, and also swap your three and four.

[u4lakers14]

and agree with dropping the lakers out of the top 5 (maybe even 7 or 8th)

Celtics still have beaten tougher opponents and have had more injuries than anyone. Rondo, their starting PG and arguable 2nd best player has been out and they have been mauling teams.

Dallas got lucky cause they caught Orlando 2 games after the huge trade.

probably a good point about catching them right after the arenas trade.

but i think dallas has had the tougher schedule (4th hardest in the nba vs. 8th for the celtics.)

a good arguement for your side though is the celtics margin of victory, which has been about 4pts better than the mavs. also the celtics have had 4 more road games than the mavs.

they are very close really, and are the clear frontrunners (although i think the spurs best in league record shouldnt be ignored, but it seems like it is)

son there is no trolling involved. why are you so sold on the Spurs as a legit team right now? of course they will be a threat, but they are not a team to be discussed when talking about elite le contenders. Like I mentioned in the post, Manu can only do so much. if he gets hurt or starts struggling, who is going to step up and score?

lol what kind of reasoning is that? you can say that about every teams best player. fact is he's not hurt and he's not struggling.
