Michael Jordan.
Shaq.
Kobe.
Lebron.

Often, the best individual wins in spite of his sucky team.

...Jordan had help, lots of it....and played the team concept! Kobe teamed up with Shaq and well, without calling traveling, Shaq just bull rushed the basket for all practical purposes. Without Shaq, Kobe had Gasol and other fairly high BB IQ guys, along with Jackson to show them the way. What we're seeing right now is different! It's basically the watchable vs. the unwatchable! Fundamentals vs. hip hop! Brains and athletic ability vs. just athletic ability.
 
When the poll first game out the vote was immediately in favor of the Spurs! Jazz fanz, even the younger guys, aren't that stupid!

The Indiana Packers can only be saying to themselves, "if only we had a PG..."

Didnt they trade collison away? Why did they do that?

I think they got Hill from the Spurs for Leonard. They must have thought Hill was a better point guard than Collison. Hill makes 8 million, and Collison was making a lot less than that, if I recall correctly.

the Heat just don't have a reliable offensive "system" other than hope there athletic ability trumps that of the other team! The way I see it, and the way all of you true Jazz fanzs should see it is this: If the Heat played the Spurs 100 seven game series'......they wouldn't win 1 series! They might win a game or two, but not a 7 game series!

That's an interesting assertion.... 99 out of 100 is unrealistically extreme, but if we adjust your assertion to say 90 out of 100, and grant you that the Spurs have a 90% chance of winning this series, I am confident that if they played 100 series, injuries aside, that the Heat would eventually learn to counter the Spurs strategy and improve their winning percentages long before the 100 series were up.

Seriously, how can anyone say that those 4 guys won with sucky teams?!?!? That's ridiculous. There might be good examples to prove Thriller's point, but those aren't them.

...yeah, they'd figure it out alright! The Van Excel way. Bring a baseball bat.....and kill one of them!
 
well, I said injuries aside....
I doubt that Wade, Allen, Miller or Ginobli would last anywhere NEAR a 100 series. Duncun might tho.
