What team do you think will be this year's NBA CHAMPION?

I think it will be the Heat this time. They now have a deeper roster than previous year. Plus their offense is improving. I'm seeing Heat vs. Spurs in the finals and Heat will win in 6.

For me I would go with Bolton Celtics and LA Lakers finals and in between them I have my champion, although I might be wrong because there are other teams in contention for the title and the likes of Miami Heat and Oklahoma City might be in the finals surprisingly but one other factor is that the Heat are built around James and Wade so definitely there is bound to be problems when one of them is injured or not playing well.

this year will be like playing favorites. the western conference remains to be strong with the growing and surging oklahoma thunder. the powerhouse teams are still strong contenders with the healthy spurs back. lakers is always a contender with kobe in the team. and to mention the defending champs, the mavs. if they play well, they can defend the title. the east is a heat conference. so i'll still go for the west. and i think the mavs will be able to repeat.

There are plenty of teams very eligible to win the NBA Title this season. You got there Miami Heat of course with their big trio Lebron James, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh. You also got the Chicago Bulls and their balanced offensive style of playing as a team and Derrick Rose as their superstar point guard. You still can't count out the Lakers because Andrew Bynum is now playing at his top performance, rebounded 30 boards a few games before and Ramon Sessions is all good right now. Oklahoma City has their dynamic duo Kevin Durant and Russel Westbrook and they are now in much chemistry as before. Also we have veteran teams like San Antonio Spurs who knows exactly what to do during tight situations and Boston Celtics that is still playing a very intelligent game every time. So with these teams around it's tough to determine who's going to win the 2011-2012 NBA Championship, goodluck to them. Have a great day!

i think miami will win the championship this time around.
