What would have been the odds that neither San Antonio nor the L.A. Lakers would even make it as far as the West Finals? But Dallas has the Lakers in a 3-0 HOLE IN THE WEST SEMIFINALS. It’s not how anyone expected Phil Jackson’s coaching career to end.

Meanwhile, I’m a bit worried by how easily Miami is handling Boston, especially given that Chicago is having problems with Carlos Boozer not at full strength.

No one really wants to see Miami win the championship, right? They’re the designated villains of the season, and we thought their disappointing performance in the regular season ended the risk of their winning this year. Looks like they could win it, though.

I still think LeBron is a nice guy. I just wouldn’t want to see him win it this season in particular after the way he broke Cleveland’s heart on national TV. Let him wait a few seasons, for karma’s sake.
