It was supposed to happen in 08-2010 but Boston and Orlando fukked it up

I thought 09 was the year....especially when Nike introduced the Lebron/Kobe puppets but Dwight Howard DOMINATED the Cavs....

I have hated Turkoglu ever since.he wouldn't stop making 3's.

Dwight put up like 26/13 :merchant:

Thought he'd be a dominant offensive player after that :why:

I hate to pile on him. But Mike Brown struggled to adjust that series :snoop:

He came back down to earth immediately against the Lakers front line the next series...the whole team did really. They were shooting lights out against the Cavs and couldn't buy a bucket against LA. It really seemed like the Cavs were the Magic's championship because they all did a 180 in the Finals. The Lakers did match up better, but the Magic just seemed like a different team after they beat CLE.

So we're judging by regular season wins? I thought those don't matter in the playoffs? :francis:
Well when one guy has been in the Finals every year for the last half decade, and the other guy has struggled to even make the playoffs during that same time frame,

Yeah, we're gonna judge by regular season :stopitslime:

But hasn't the playoffs shown us time and time again that regular season wins don't matter? Orlando swept us in 09 and we all know what happened. 08-10 was the perfect time for it to happen. Brons teams were a top 2 team and he was winning MVPs left and right but I guess he was shook of bean.

That's all we have to go by. The playoffs are irrelevant here because they haven't met in the playoffs. Again tho, they've played head to head a bunch of times and the results speak for themselves.

The playoffs allow time for gameplanning and the will to win increases especially for star players. That's why the Hawks 3-0 record vs the Cavs means jack shyt when they hit the playoffs. You can't measure someone's will when there's no pressure in the regular season. I'm sorry but that regular season record hardly settles anything.
