Vatutin, We can only hope... but it's likely that Pats get it yet once more... but at least it's not that horribly boring as the recent NBA championships over the last few years. Oh come on a. I'd take anyone (except the Cowboys) over the Eagles b. These last few NBA championships have been amazing. 3-1, anyone?

The last championship was terrible. And speaking of terrible, the Cavs are it this year. They aren't going back to the Finals.

If there was any team sport where one player could carry the entire team, it would definitely be basketball, especially when we're talking about the NBA. A possible exception might be baseball (just look at Madison Bumgarner in 2014), or maybe a goalie in hockey, but I still think it's easier in the NBA.

Making the playoffs? Or winning a championship? The latter will never happen, especially in the Golden State era. One guy simply can't do it all when faced with a three headed lion like the Warriors.

I stop watching NBA since only a few team can win it all. This is why i watch NHL insted since playoff time its any team can win it

There is parity in the NHL, and I feel that the players work harder than in the NBA. That's why I only watch college basketball; while the NBA may showcase the best talents and athletes, there is a different passion in the college game.

The Cavs are going to make it to the Finals. As far as winning it all is concerned, he's got a shot- if he, Love, IT, and JR absolutely ball out. Long shot, sure, but very possible.

As far as winning it all is concerned, he's got a shot- if he, Love, IT, and JR absolutely ball out. Long shot, sure, but very possible. Yeah, he has a slim hope if the people around him ball out. Which it just so happens they have been doing the polar opposite this season. Defense wins championships, and they have none. All 3 guys that LeBron has around him are having career lows everywhere and Kevin Love is heavily involved in trade rumors. The Cavs are a dysfunctional drama mill and they'll be lucky to make it to Warriors-Cavs IV. I know better than to count LeBron out completely, but I'd much rather see Celtics vs. Warriors. The Celtics will keep it fresh and competitive.
