This is the matchup we all wanted to see. Miami Heat vs. OKC Thunder. LeBron vs. Durant. I think this will be a great Finals. That being said, the clear favorite for this Finals is the OKC Thunder. They have been on a tear out west, have had a few days off, have the better coach, and have homecourt advantage. At times the Thunder look unstoppable, and I think this Finals is theirs to lose. Despite that, I'm gonna take the UNDERDOG Heat to win this one in 6 great games. The Heat's only chance is if LeBron, Wade, & Bosh bring their A games and get consistent contributions from the Heat supporting cast of Battier, Miller, and Chalmers. LeBron haters shouldnt expect a bad Finals from him this go round, he's been dominating all playoffs and has no excuses this year. I cant wait for this one to tip off Tuesday night in OKC!

If Im Durant and the Thunder Im nervous as hell SNO is picking me to win after being so sure Boston would beat Miami. Dude is always wrong. LOL

Not all the time. I predicted Carolina to pick Cam Newton #1 back in October of '10. I was ran off this board as a joke. Hindsight is a bitch.

You should ditch the Bobcats avatar. You are the biggest LeBron/Heat fanboy I've ever seen. And they are divisional rivals of Charlotte.

You really thought old ass Boston could stop LeBron, jokes on you.. LeBron broke up the Big 3 in Boston. Theyll never play together again thanks to him.

Talk is cheap. Garnett, Pierce, Allen, & Rondo are world champions. LeBron is just another Malone.

    • I have been on the Bech bandwagon since well before the SR Bowl.  Hoping that he would stay a hidden gem and we'd be smart enough to grab him late.  I just don't think Morgan cares as much about WR as we do
    • No one had posted in a month.  I don't think any of us were watching
    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up.
