im going to say the spurs. last year, san antonio and detroit had the two best records in the nba, and nobody picked the mavs OR the heat to make it, except mavs and heat fans. everyone was 100% either the spurs or the pistons would win. this year, everyone is sure the mavs and suns will slug it out in the western conference finals, and whoever wins that will win the nba. first of all, dont forget about the all of a sudden offensive dynamite in detroit. second, i wouldn't take the Heat because dwyane wade is their best 4th quarter player, and he's injured. the mavs look like the automatic pick, but their lack of interior defense will bite them. last year, although they beat the spurs, duncan consistently lit em up. dont forget, last year the mavs barely beat the spurs. in game 7, with the spurs up by 3, ginobili stupidly fouls nowitzki on a 3 point play. they should have won that game... take the quiet and underrated spurs

Um hello? The Mavericks of course! All teams who have had 51-9 or better records at 60 games have won the NBA Finals, and they're the only team to have 3 streaks of 12 or more games, showing that they can rebound after just one loss. The Heat are Wade-less, so they're chances are slim to none. The Spurs (and the Suns) have to go through a tough West conference as well as the Mavs. Not to mention the Mavs have the best conference record (32-6). If they can beat the Suns next week, they'll be invincible coming into the playoffs.

Without Dwayne Wade, the heat don't have a chance. As for the Spurs, there isn't anyway they could beat the Heat or Mavericks.
Mavericks will win it all.

With the injury to Dwayne Wade and the inconsistent play of the Spurs, the Mavericks have the best chance

When i think of the team to beat right NOW, i would HAVE to say that the dallas mavericks are the team that have the best chance to win it. We can eliminate the heat with injuries to dwayne wade, even though shaq has been playing pretty good since dwade's injury. It would probably be the spurs who have the best chance after Dallas......they are HOT

mavs all the way haven't the won 15 straight or something like that there just plain unbeatable. The heat might not have a chance because of the injury of dwyane wade which can really hurt them when it comes to playoff time but shaq is playing phenomenal. the spurs have a chance if tony parker and tim duncan remain healthy and if they play as a team there just crazy together i think they've won like 9 straight.

Statistically, the Mavs are a lock for the Finals. Every other team that has won 51 out of their first 60 games has gone on to win the NBA Finals. Plus, Dirk is on track to be the NBA MVP. As much as I hate Mark Cuban, the Mavs are definitely the favorites to win it all.

you are able to take the nice and cozy temperature from the starting up of your record! If the nice and cozy temperature's activity does no longer advance they gained't be going to the playoffs! Lakers do no longer have sufficient key gamers right this moment------they can make it to the playoffs, yet they do no longer have sufficient journey! Kobe can no longer carry them that some distance! The Suns have a good threat with! Nets have a reliable threat! Clippers can make it to the playoffs! You forgot the properly experienced Spurs-------and do not even imagine of forgetting Detroit---------and also Ben Wallace is bringing Chicago again into the action! it truly is only too early contained in the season to make certain! injuries to key gamers on diverse communities can truly replace a season!

heat. simply by elimination and conference. you said chance, spurs and mavs will meet at the west finals. so thats 50-50 already. and the road to the conf finals aint easy either. the heat's only competition in the east are the pistons. and getting there is easier. wiz? cavs? definitely easier than say going through lakers or suns.
