The Nets and Heat tip off tonight in Miami, and it’s fun to play the game of “Who’s it less painful to root for: Pat Riley or Vince Carter?” Tough call, really; we tend to veer toward cutting Vince Carter some slack, if just because the guy clearly knows how to have a good time.

We don’t mean to say that people aren’t as excited about this series as they are the other three, but … well, tickets in East Rutherford are still available.

Here’s a look at the series from around the Web:

Daily Quickien six.
YAYSports!: Nets in seven.
The Association: Heat in five.
J.E. Skeets: Nets in seven.
Complete Sports: Heat in seven.
Chris Sheridan: Nets in seven.
True Hoop: Heat in seven.
Deadspin: Heat in six. Even though Gary Payton is the only point guard we know more tired and washed up than Jason Kidd, we have a feeling the Nets, deep down, kind of stink.

Your predictions in the comments, if you can work yourselves up to it on a Monday.
