Tonight, the Los Angeles Lakers, the back to back Champion of the National Basketball Association, lost game 2 of this 7 game series to the New and Improved Dallas Mavericks. The Lakers are trying to return to the Finals for the 4th straight year (which hasn't been done since Celtics of 80s).
Ok enough of that, let me get to my point.
As a 4 year fair-weather fan of the Lakers, I am officially declaring the Miami Heat as the favorite to win the 2011 NBA title! The biggest threat that I see will be Oklahoma City. Chicago not ready yet, Memphis not ready (even though that opinion may change), Dallas I'm not convinced will win title....YET, Boston is old and losing it and Hawks just not winning it....LOL!
The only way this changes is if Lakers win the next 2 games in Dallas. If Lakers return home from Dallas down 3-1 (and obviously if they lose in both in Dallas it's over....LOL), it's over. When you can only make 2-3 3 pointers, you will not win it all.....SMH!!!
Bottomline: Miami Heat will win the title this year! #thatisall
