 1. That the two most untradeable contracts in the league (Arenas and Lewis) would be swapped

2. That Memphis would beat the Spurs in the first round

3. That Dallas would sweep The Lakers en-route to the NBA title

4. That Carmelo Anthony and Deron Williams would both be playing in New York

5. That Deshawn Stevenson would be weird enough to get a tattoo of Abraham Lincoln on his neck

6. That Derrick Rose would win the MVP( I saw a Slam article about him saying he thought he could be MVP for the 2011 season and I thought he was crazy)

7. That two of the all-time great coaches in Jerry Sloan and Phil Jackson would both have unceremonious leaves from the NBA

 

[Charlie SheenParticipant]

Yeah Derrick Rose said it and everyone said he’s crazy, LeBron’s gonna win the next 5 MVP’s and D-Rose lead his team and was the most consistent player in the NBA and if he had a scorer off the bench oh boy, imagine if they get Nick Young and teach him how to play defense 

[JaeEvolutionParticipant]

Never thought Bulls would be THAT great, had them finishing 5th in East haha, silly me.

Never thought the Mavs would even get out of the first round, that was the first round upset I was counting on most.

Never thought the kid Griffin would absolutely dominate, until I seen him catch back to back oops opening night, ahhh NBA lockout…

Never thought Lebron would win his ring, and oh look it happened. Haha jokes.

[Scottoant93Participant]

Never thought the Nets would land Deron Williams

Never Thought the celtics would trade kendrick perkins

Never thought that the heat wouldn’t be able to beat the zone defense

Never Thought Mavs would win the championship

Never Thought Lebron would join Dwade, and Bosh

[McDunkin]

Rick Kamla wouldnt get called up by TNT when one of the regulars were out.

[mcbaileyParticipant]

 I never thought Indiana would make the playoffs, let alone win a game against the Bulls in the first round.

 

It’s the reverse of Scottoant93’s statement, but I never thought Oklahoma City would trade Jeff Green.

 

I didn’t think Russell Westbrook would play so poorly in the playoffs.

 

I didn’t think Blake Griffin would win Rookie of the Year (mostly because I didn’t consider him a rookie).

 

How could I have known that a Carmelo-less Denver team would play well enough to still make the playoffs?

 

I thought the Bucks would have a much, much better year.

[David Stern a.k.a. da muthaf@cking leader of da kryptsParticipant]

 I never thought Lebron would be shut down in the finals

[omphalosParticipant]

I never thought Kevin Love would be an All-Star before Eric Gordon.

I never thought the Celtics would have four All-Stars.

I never thought Amare would be so successful in New York before Melo got there.

I never thought the Thunder would make it so far so quickly.

[McDunkin]

I never thought that 2K would send me a reply that said "F.U." to the E-mail I sent them explaining why Jimmer should have been on the cover of 2K12

[JunkYardDogParticipant]

I never thought jj barea could be so BIG and leBron seem so pale…

I never thought Ian mahinmi could have scored one bucket one day… in the nba finals !!!

[M-DYMESParticipant]

Elton Brand would have a solid season

Kevin Love would set a record

T-Wolves would get Beasley for next to nothing

Kyle Lowry would tear it up

Bosh would want a title the most out of the Big 3 in Miami

Denver would get that much for Melo.  I thought they’d get alot, but a pretty much a whole nother lineup.  Wow.

JR Smith could pretty much sexually abuse someone during a game.

Gilbert Arenas would become absolutely forgettable. 

 

[paradigmnParticipant]

 I never thought RON ARTEST would be involved with "Liquids" again in an NBA game!!!

Dang…Can’t mention "Metta World Peace" and "Liquids" in the same sentence without posting "The Malice at the Palace" no question the best part is when fat boy in the RIP jersey steps up to Ronny like he’s bout 2 do something….then Artest becomes an Artist and paints the dude up with the 1…2…combo….WHAP WHAP…LOL…also…pause it at exactly 17 seconds to see what a "Scared White Man Looks Like"…LOL

[PlatypusParticipant]

1.Never thought Jerry Sloan would retire like that.

2. Never thought dunking from the free throw line wouldn’t win you a slam dunk contest

3. Never thought Rashard Lewis or Gilbert Arenas would ever be traded with out their contracts expiring

[Bmore_DCParticipant]

1. didnt think Dallas had it in them…

2. didnt think JJ Barea could dominate like he did…

3. didnt think Blake Griffin would put up those kind of numbers (Kevin Love either)…

4. didnt think Memphis would beat the Spurs, let alone make the playoffs…

5. didnt think the Thunder could beat the Lakers this soon…

6. didnt think the Wizards could actually trade Arenas (thank you Orlando!!!!)

[JNixonParticipant]

 1. Kendrick Perkins getting traded. FOR JEFF GREEN. (Neither looked good in their new environment either)

2. The Mavs winning the title

3. The Mavs sweeping the Lakers.

4. Blake Griffin being so scary good as a rookie.

5. Brandon Jennings not improving at all in his 2nd season.

6. Brandon Roy basically being a shell of his former self and getting hurt. It sucks.

7. Zach Randolph’s playoff performance in both rounds. The former blackhole who didn’t defend and was a lockeroom concerned became the player he was supposed to be. Almost carried Memphis to 2 upset series wins.

[Wavy BagelsParticipant]

Never thought Kevin Love would go Moses Malone on the league and average nearly 15 boards per game (Also shooting over 40% from 3 was uncanny)

Never thought the Grizzlies would’ve taken their playoff run as far as they did

Never thought the Knicks would trade majority of their starting lineup for Carmelo Anthony

Never thought the Utah Jazz would blowup in such speed

Never thought Brian Cardinal would get a ring before Lebron

 

[aamir543Participant]

Never thought Derek Fisher would keep his starting job the WHOLE season.

Never thought that one man could choke so much so often.

Never thought that Kobe would just run out of gas in the playoffs.

Never thought that the Knicks would give up so much for Melo.

Never thought that they still wouldn’t cover up Manu’s bald spot.

Never thought that Richard Hmilton would turn into such a rebel.

Never thought that the Cavs would be THAT bad.
