OT: Ok, how many titles do the Heat win?

WTF? Take it to the Meat forum. Quit polluting our space.

 

There, fify.

Go Blazers

 

Here's the irony for Heat fans. Anything less than multiple titles and the Heat are a failure, winning one doesn't really mean shit.

 

Exactly. Right now they're just Dallas. And they'll never match Jordan's 1990's Bulls. They needed to win last year to even have a chance. He's the A+ they'll never attain.

 

I think they meet again next year, if OKC can keep most of the team together. As for over the next 5 or so? Maybe twice more for 3 total (including this year). I see OKC trading Westbrook eventually if they can't close the deal, and Wade will break down soon. By then, other teams might be on the rise and could prevent either or both from making the finals entirely.

 

Not at all. For some this season is "asterisked."

 

OKC needs to trade Hardin, Ibaka and Perkins and pick up D Howard, then watch Miami realize what happens when you stack a team.......

 

I think the odds are pretty good that we'll see these two teams in this same situation a few more times.

 

I hope the Thunder never ever make it back to the Finals. Clippertown!

 

probably be the heat coming out of the east for the next 3 years. To win another title Lebron will again need to be the best player on the floor for every game. With the wear and tear on his body I believe he after next years finals his legs are going to start to go.

Heat will win again next year.

 

The way D-Wade's declining and the lack of young prospects to develop with Lebron, I'm not so sure of that.

 

I think Wade's decline is being overblown, it's just the result of LeBron taking over the team. Wade is still an amazing player. As of right now I don't see anyone in the East with a better chance than Miami to be in the Finals the next few years.

 

Wade still does good shit on the court. But, his jumper has looked ugly and his explosiveness going to the hoop isn't nearly what its been.

 

He was hurt.

As was Bosh.

Wade will have off-season surgery.

He may never be the same old Wade, but I bet (unless he gets hurt again) he will play a lot better in next years playoffs.

If the Heat big three are healthy in any one playoffs (something that hasn't been the case yet), they will have an easier time than they did this year getting to the finals.

A recovering Bosh.

A Gimpy Wade.

Mike Miller could hardly walk. (was supposed to be their 4th best player when they signed him)

And they still ran OKC off the court.

 

Lebron James is a douche that plays for the douchiest city in the douchiest state in the douchiest country in the world.

just wait until the HEAT sign Roy and Oden!

 

Nah I think I'll be taking this victory lap actually.

Not really, I'm just pointing out the obvious. A lot of people here don't understand basketball.

Looks like a legit thread to me Mr. hypocrite.

Not really, all three can opt out after two more years, if the team was truly on the verge of collapse. I think Wade will be good enough though, LeBron just stopped deferring to him in the Finals. It is nice to see them win their first ring together.


I think all three will be fine as far as winning more titles. We should try to add some more people though.

 

Nope, LeBron is 27 we already beat the Mavs' model.

The Mavs prove you need to leave your initial team if anything.

Hmm no that's not really the question at all, since LeBron has postseasons that are better than Jordan's best postseasons and has no rival. The TEAMS are rivals maybe, although Miami was clearly better.

Durant right now is like a young Dirk, and Barkley still has a better career.

If Wade breaks down Bosh will just take more shots. He plays fantastic when wade is out of the lineup.

Well said.
