1. Who do you want to win? - Rockets
2. Who do you think is really going to win? - Too hard to call, but on the east I like the heat, and west the mavericks.
3. Who do you want to blow it? - I don't wish bad upon any team really. I just hope every team that faces the rockets blows it! Sorry, Utah Jazz.
(By the way, Jazz vs Rockets bring back some childhood pain!)
I like the NBA more in its current state than I liked it back in the early 90's, but my views may be different since in 1990 I was 7 years old. I like the competition and unpredictability, and how there are a bunch of teams that have a reputation to hold onto even though they didn't nessicarily get rings before. There seems to be a LOT more players worth watching that bring something special to the table.
My favorite players to watch are Dwane Wade and Kobe Bryant. Bryant is amazing, though its funny how the NBA blacklisted him for trying to rat on Shaq and for the rape case. Announcers avoid comparing him to jordan and he can't get any really big endorsements anymore. XD But he still kicks ass. As for Wade, he's one of those players who role play most of the game, but when it comes down to the wire, or if his team is down, he becomes like a beast.
As for the NBA in general, I love it. I think the NBA playoffs are the best of any ending tournament. Its not cut throat at all, the best team always wins in the end. Its very little luck involved, not too many teams, but not too few teams at the same time... Season play doesn't mean too much to the playoffs, but means just enough to help momentum.
I've sat through one too many NCAA toureys and World series, and Superbowls where I was like "what the hell, THEY won?!" at the end. <.<
