First off, I wont be watching the Finals this year. I hate the Lakers and always will, but I will be rooting for them this year as I am now an avid Magic hater. Mostly because of Dwight "Superbaby" Howard. I cant remember a foul called on Howard where he didnt laugh or whine about it. I see Howard as a cocky, overrated guy whose ego his bigger than his talent.

And even though I will be rooting for the Lakers, I guess, I see the Magic winning. I honestly didnt expect the Cavs to lose more than one game to Orlando, and Cleveland ended up only winning one themselves, barely. LeBron had to hit a miraculous 3 with less than a second left to take their only game of the series. The Magic impressed me and I think they will beat the Lakers in an exciting 7 game series that I will not watch. In a perfect world, it would be Nuggets and Cavs in the Finals and LeBron would win his first of many rings. SIXERS FRON 2010 FINALS!?

Lebron has no rings, so lets stop talking about how many he will have. Dwight Howard had over 40 points in the biggest game of his career, Lebron had only 25. He had only 12 in the remaining three quarters. He had only 4 points in the fourth, and 2 of those points came right at the end as a free basket. The Cavs had the best record all year, so they had a good team. Lebron came up short. I remember when the Lakers played the Trailblazers in game 7 of the Western Conference Finals and the Lakers were down by 13 in the fourth. Kobe led them back to win the game. he did everything in that fourth. He was stealing the ball, he was blocking shots, he hit almost every shot down the floor, it was really remarkable what he did in that game, but I guess everyone gets overexcited that Lebron hit a three pointer in the playoffs at the buzzer. How many times has Kobe done that in big games, or other players for that matter? Lebron is the King of nothing, well maybe the King of bad sportsmanship.

Its absurd to call any of the top performing players in the NBA overrated. Your hatred outshines your ability to write. No one cares about rants, objective reasoning is what people look for.

If you think Howard is the only one who glares at refs for "fouls" being called on him, well then, you don't watch much basketball.
