And so ends the 2010-2011 NBA season, one of the best seasons we've had in the last 10-11 years. Now we need to hope that the players and owners can get it together and avoid a lockout and/or avoid losing games next season.
If we have a regular season, who do you expect to be in championship contention next year?
I say Heat, Lakers, OKC, Bulls and maybe Mavs. I don't see Mavs repeating. I'd bet my money (If I was someone to bet) more on Heat winning the title next year than Mavs repeating.
For the Heat, should they trade Bosh? Should the coach be fired and replaced by Pat Riley? Interesting stuff.
