I agree Bosh is not the problem. He is however, not in the same league as Wade and James. He would be the one to get traded if any of the three were to be moved. That being said, you may be right, none of them will be moved. Wade wanted Bosh in Miami, he got him. Dont want to make Dwayne mad now do we. (Not referring to you or any of us, being sarcastic to the fact that Dwayne and Lebron run everything there.) I wouldnt call the Heat mediocre. They are incomplete from being a great, great team.
The Heat could still do well in the playoffs, but a good defensive team can still handle them in a 7 game series. The Bulls, Celtics could take them. Dare I say even the new Knicks match up well against them.
Bosh very much is the problem. How can you expect to be an elite team when your best big only get 8 boards a game and only shoots .485. Those are horrible numbers for a PF. He's playing like a SF.
Bosh isn't so bad, and he's right about not getting the ball enough. His shots have gone down from 16.5 to 13.8, and particularly his FTA down from 8.4 to 5.7. He's scoring efficiently enough - 18 points on 14 shots. I'm not sure you want two bigs in the lane with guys like Wade and LBJ who like to take it to the rim. Their C's are old, Haslem only played 13 games, Miller has sucked, Bibby has sucked, Chalmers is meh. I was never really scared of them this season, it's next and a few after when they get to add better players to fill out the roster through MLE.
ESPN wins the unintentional comedy awards, and second place isn't even close. How are the Lakers going to regret how it went down? Is it because the Heat gained confidence and are now ready to beat them in the finals . . . Really? Really? Really? The Lakers are unflappable. That doesn't mean they are going to win a championship, just that they're not going to break down in the locker room after a loss.
The Heat were 9-8 at the start of the year. The objective figures said they were elite and would bounce back, and they did. I don't freak out over the regular season, only the playoffs matter to me.
The Lakers came off a huge win against the Spurs, The Heat couldn't have been in a worse slump all season. Legit win unless you dislike Miami.
Totally a legit win. Not trying to argue otherwise. I just was making fun of the fact that a reporter from ESPN said the "Lakers will regret how it went down." How will the Lakers regret how it went down? That's a bizarro statement. I mean essentially he's arguing that the win changed the balance of power in the entire league, not just one of the conferences. WTF. Is anyone here ready to say that the Heat are now going to the finals, and when they get to the finals they're going to run LA, and when the run LA it's going to be because they won a game in March? That's just looney tunes.
Heat lost to the Thunder! Heat were 2-15 in 3's and out rebounded by 10 (43 seconds left down by 13 points) Big 3 scored 3/4 of their points.
Are they bad again? I love how when they win three games in a row they somehow are instantly the hottest team in the league according to every talking head.
