Yeah. They're now a half-game better than Minnesota, which isn't good if they're looking to have the most balls in the lottery. Especially since the T-Wolves have lost 12 in a row.

LeBron, Spoelstra Developing Shared Vision
Apr 06, 2011 3:24 PM EDT
LeBron James and Erik Spoelstra's relationship was rocky in the beginning, with James reportedly leaking information to the media that indicated Heat players were unhappy with Spoelstra’s leadership.
"It takes a while to develop trust," Spoelstra said. "From a coaching standpoint you have to fight for players' trust every single day. Every single meeting. Whenever you talk to them -- game, pregame, shoot-around, practice. I think every coach has that same feeling."
Recently, in the 150 seconds that make up most timeouts, LeBron and Spoelstra have been in a kind of mind meld.
"Sometimes -- a lot of times actually now -- during timeouts I start to diagram something and he says, ‘Coach, can I say something,' almost like he's a student in class,'" Spoelstra said. "And I'll say, ‘Yeah, absolutely, quickly, we got 2-1/2,' so I can assimilate it and then possibly translate it to the team.
"Sometimes we're not even finishing sentences with each other. He'll say something and I know exactly what he's talking about," Spoelstra said, snapping his fingers, his words coming out faster, his voice fired up. "And I'll say something and I'm halfway through my sentence and he'll finish my sentence and we go to explain to everybody else and everyone's sitting in the huddle there going, ‘What just happened there?'
Spoelstra's message becomes stronger because it's also LeBron's message.
"That's the gift and the curse because I have some of my own methods and Coach has some of his own and we both know the game, we both believe in some of the things that we know, but we both have to figure out a way (to do it together)," LeBron said. "Which we have."

Lebrons quote on buying a minority share of Liverpool FC:
"Eighteen championships," the 26-year-old James told the Journal. "I see myself trying to do the same things they have."
He really think he can win 18 championships?

Bulls smack the Celtics around tonight 97-81. DRoseMVP with 30-5-8.
Bulls essentially lock up homecourt in the East.

Bulls magic number is 1 for the 1 seed in the East. Shocks the hell out of me.
Boston and Miami battling for number 2, although it really doesn't matter other than home court for their 2nd round series. Although, the 3 seed gets the Knicks as of right now. If that ends up being Boston, I think the Knicks win that series.

I think the Knicks have a better chance of beating Miami than Boston. Boston really did fuck themselves this season though by getting rid of Perkins. I could look back at the end of the playoffs and be wrong, but I dont think I will.

If sq_crazies were still around that would have been his cue for another "epic collapse of the Celtics" thread.
