championship rings

Indeed.

Some others who have never won a ring:

Steve Nash
Reggie Miller
Dominique Wilkins
Allen Iverson
Elgin Baylor (probably the BEST to never win a ring)
Bernard King
Connie Hawkins
George Gervin
Pistol Pete Maravich

Coming Soon.

So who wins? My belief is that with homecourt advantage and 3 superstars (depending solely on the bench play and defense aiding), Lebron James will get his first ring in a VERY TOUGH 7 game series! Miami Heat in 7!

I also see the Heat winning.

Prior to Haslem's return and Mike Miller's excellent game 4 I would've picked the Mavs because of their depth.

Miami's new-found depth plus their outstanding defense make the Heat my favorites.

If there is a Heat/Mavs series, I have a feeling more of the Heat bench will play a significant role.  For some reason, I'm feeling like James Jones will re-emerge and hit some big shots.

They'll have to play a significant role if the Heat want to win the series.

Yeah, if Miller and Haslem were not playing or not at best, I'd say Dallas in 7 and may have given Chicago the homecourt edge to win series.

Jonathan Weaver of Las Vegas was sentenced to two-to-six years in prison on Tuesday for questionable babysitting skills. It seems Weaver, a big NBA fan, was supposed to watch his girlfriend’s kids while she attended night school. But a friend wanted him to go watch the NBA Finals at a sports bar, and so Weaver did the logical thing: he bound and gagged the kids and locked them in the garage so he could go watch the game.

    “But for a neighbor who heard them crying in the garage, they could have easily have died in there,” the judge said.

    Neighbors summoned police and firefighters broke into an apartment complex garage to get to the boys, ages 1 and 2. Police said they were found tied to car seats, each with a piece of clothing in his mouth.

    The toddlers’ mother left the boys with the 22-year-old Weaver while she was at night school, Las Vegas police said.

Fortunately neighbors heard the kids crying and called police, who summoned firefighters to break into the garage. Turns out Weaver will only spend a couple of weeks in prison — assuming good behavior — since he’s already spent nearly two years in county jail on these charges.

The worst part of this is that someday those kids are going to realize they were tied up so that someone could watch a Lakers-Magic game.

Well, Bulls/Heat Game 5 starts in a few minutes. While I wouldn't be surprised if Bulls win tonight, I believe Heat will play hard and seal the deal to earn their trip to the Finals. To me, if Chicago wins it puts the probability of a Game 7 back in Chicago out there. I don't believe Heat would want that but regardless of what happens I think Heat will get to the Finals.

We had a serious storm come through and so I missed a lot of the good stuff but we still here THANK GOD!!! I fully expect the Heat to win the championship this year even though I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to see the Mavs win. I want Dirk to win so bad that I don't know what to do. Maybe our prayer will be answered again like it was when the Lakers lost.

Now I"ll definitely celebrate with you if Heat do not win the title!
