NBA Playoffs coming soon...

The 2010-2011 NBA regular season is finally winding down. The much anticipated playoff is fast approaching. I have the feeling that this is going to be a playoff season for the ages. Among the anticipated storylines are:

1. The Miami Heat
After all of the hype of "The Decision", the time is here for them to put up or shut up. Everyone in the country-outside of Miami- is waiting to see them fail. Basically, if the Heat win it all, they will have silenced the critics. If they lose the Finals, let alone get eliminated early, a huge joy will ring nationwide.

2. Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls
Derrick Rose has led his Bulls' team to the No. 1 seed in the Eastern Conference, and is likely to win to this year's MVP. Can he continue his dominant play and lead to the Bulls to their first trophy since the days of the great Michael Jordan?

3. Boston Celtics
Is this the last year of their recent dominance? Do the Celtics have enough to defeat Miami and Chicago to win the East? Will Rondo come back to form? Hopefully Shaq returns from his injury to help the C's small frontline.

4. L.A. Lakers
Can they pull-off another 3peat?

5. San Antonio
They are not the flashiest team in the league. Some may call them old-fashioned and boring, but one thing that you can't take away from them....the Spurs always show up to play and win.

Tune in on April 17th to see these and more storylines unfold..
