If he doesn't play it will just fuel the Barkley's in saying we are not a legit team. I want him to play just to see how good we are.
This is still a game they need to win, even if LeBron isn't playing. Miami, even w/out LeBron is still a very hard team to play.
actually no, it's still a hard team to play. Wade and Bosh are still very solid pros, even without LeBron.
We agree 100%. It's kind of fun reading BlazerFanatic take down some of these know-it-all posters, too, and then they get upset because of who blunt and direct her method is. Reminds me of myself back when I still had the want to post long posts that offered a differing opinion from the cool clique.
The Blazers better be mentally prepared for a dog fight without Lebron. Wade, Bosh, Chalmers, Ray Allen, Haslem, Cole, Beasley, Andersen, Battier........If they all play then this is no average team. Especially coming off a loss. Over the course of a season that team may not be great, but for one night they will be a problem. The Blazers can not relax!
Everytime the Heat win LeBron rightly so gets nearly all the credit. If LeBron is out I think the rest of the Heat will feel its their big chance to make a statement this year.
If we keep winning, it will no longer be us fearing who we're going to play, but rather the other team's fans fearing us. In other words, fuck whoever they put on the floor; we're good enough to beat any team, any time, anywhere.
5 years ago it isn't an average team. This year? Probably say. Ray Allen = Shell D-Wade = Depends on which Wade shows up Bosh = still solid Battier = Shell Beasley = Knucklehead still Haslem = Shell
If our 3 % is 40+ tonight, which I think it can easily be, we should blow them out of the water if Lebron is out. Don't count out Wade having a classic Wade game though.
To me, a "classic Wade game" is when he slips on the floor and the refs call a foul on the closest Blazer. Does anyone have a video of that garbage?
True about Wade, but based on the last 7 games he has played he is averaging 23 points, while shooting over 57% from the field. (along with 5 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 steals) ) That would be the Wade I would expect to see tonight.
This made me laugh. It forced me to log on to comment. Drat. I am a female but rarely post here as I'm usually 3 pages behind in the conversation.
