I'm hoping for it. Anything to get the Lebron Haters to shut up. If the heat pull this off and people still hate him, then they have some serious problems.

The way the heat have built their team they should win. They built their team for championships. Not sure about the next season though since there are some contracts that are running out.

I'm hoping with derrick rose back this year we can win a championship and bring the title back to chicago.

I don't know, I think the top three teams will be Chicago, Brooklyn, and Heat in that order. I see Brooklyn or Chicago going all the way.

So you're automatically going to put the 2x Defending champs in 3rd just because Brooklyn has 2 GOOD veterans, but they also have a rookie "coach", and Chicago is at 2nd just because #TheReturn is happening?

The Heat are defending champs, so they are #1 until proven other wise.

Brooklyn doesn't have enough proven head coaching yet. Kidd hasn't proven anything as a coach.

I love the Chicago Bulls, and they've been my favorite team since I was like 7, but I don't see anyone beating Miami.

The biggest problem the Heat face is that the Big Three isn't what it once was. All those other problems can be rendered irrelevant if Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade and LeBron James are playing at their peaks.

And What You Know About UGK

I can see it happening again but I don't want it to.

There are threats beginning to rise though because of: Rose coming back, the Pacers getting stronger, the Nets if they can get chemistry and Jason Kidd coaches them well, Westbrook coming back and maybe making a run with the Thunder, etc.
