The Ming Dynasty

I can’t tell you how much I’m rooting for the Shaq/Yao rivalry to take off. The NBA is in desperate need of a good old-fashioned rivalry, and the Shaq/Yao thing never really got going while Shaq was in the West. With the Rockets currently playing like world-beaters, and the Heat playing like, well, the team that currently holds the rights to Shaquille O’Neal, a Rockets/Heat Finals matchup would be spectacular!

I’ve kinda’ lost interest in the NBA these days, but these are the playoffs–an entirely different animal. Come on, Shaq and Yao. Make my June.
