Defense wins championships. And when…I mean if the Miami Heat end up turning last night’s NBA Finals Game 3 victory into a championship over the Dallas Mavericks, it will 100% be because of their defense. In three games so far, the Mavericks have shot over 40% just one time, and that of course was the [...]

It’s just 10 minutes before tip-off of the 2011 NBA Finals, but I had to let TheSportsWatchers’ prediction be known. The Miami Heat will win the championship. I said it once the season began, I said it at the start of the NBA playoffs, and I’m saying it now. The Heat just have too much [...]

I’m writing this post just hours before the start of the Chicago Bulls vs. Miami Heat NBA Playoff Series. It’s a rather risky time to write something like this, as I could have the facts thrown in my face in a matter of moments. However, the fact is, that no matter what happens in Game [...]

Last night, when the Celtics loss to the Heat 98-90 in Game 4, it was the end of an era. I know the series isn’t over. I know the fighting Boston Celtics are still alive. I know they wouldn’t be the first team in the history of the NBA Playoffs to come back from a [...]
