I'm in total shock right now, with Utah leading the series 2 - 1. After last nights game, the Jazz needs to get out of GS home court and get back to SLC.

The series I'm also watching is the Spurs vs. Suns.

Jazz vs. Spurs & Cavs vs. Pistons

Pistons will take the Cavs, I'll say in 5 games.

As for my Jazz, I'm in shock that they have gotten this far and the way they are playing, Jazz will beat the Spurs in game 7. It's going to be sweet series.

So my prediction was way off at the start of all this, but finals will come down to the Jazz vs. Pistons. And Jordan won't be there to stop the Jazz this time.

It'll be Jazz vs Cavs, then Lebron James can start getting called the next jordan just like Dwane Wade and Kobe Bryant!!

And it has begun, ESPN is saying that if James does win this next round that he will be next MJ. Why do they always have to compare? How many people have been compared to MJ? I remember a certain "Baby Jordan" that even won two Slam Dunk Championships and less than a couple years he was out of the NBA. Harold Minor could have been Harold Minor, and without the pressure of that name, who knows he could still be around today.

Because he's black and can't be the next Larry Bird.

But in all seriousness, I agree with CamFu... Mike was the greatest, but I think its unfair to the players to compare them to him at such a young age. I think the only person it's worked out for is Kobe. They also compared people like Grant Hill and Jerry stackhouse to him WAY too early. Its like a curse. @_@

When they were comparing wade to him last year I wanted to slap the announcers hard.

The Jazz is driving me nuts. They can't get their game together long enough to even have the Spurs worry about them right now. Yeah, I know that the Jazz were down 2 games against the Rockets... but this is the Spurs we are talking about.

And the Jazz are done. I'm proud of them, at the beginning of the season nobody thought they would do anything. Well they did, so I'm looking forward to next season.

Is it bad that I really dislike Tony Parker, showed that guy like 4 times during the game.

Game 5 of Pistons vs cavs was a real thriller. With more games like that we're gonna hear a lot more Jordan/Lebron comparisions. XD
