    The Heat will kill them in 5 games, and the Spurs may beat them if they can get past Curry and Jack.

    Well, the Grizzlies are 3-2 against the Heat since they acquired LeBron.

    This season, the Grizz blew out the Heat in one game and lost late in the fourth in the other.

    Knicks blew out the Heat TWICE. Guess that means you're seeing the Knicks in the Finals. They might be healthy so watch out.

    Based on their defense and strength down low, the Grizzlies are the one team in the West with a chance to beat the Heat, as are the Pacers in the East. If Miami goes through Indy and Memphis to win the title this year, they will have earned it.

    Another thought--can you imagine the weeping and gnashing of teeth at NBA HQ if the finals consisted of Indy v Memphis? :rofl:

    Hahahahaha! Memphis and Indiana are both garbage teams. The only team with a realistic chance of beating the Heat is the Knicks. They blew out the Heat twice and Kidd/Chandler know the Heat's weaknesses.

    Just now? You're an insincere joker as a poster and a proven liar. Where is the link to my question?

    They disposed of the Heat in 6 games. They know.

    You're fooling yourself if you think that the Heat team that lost to Dallas in 2011 is as good as this year's edition. Or if you think Kidd/Chandler are as good now as then. Or even if you think 'Melo this year is as good as Dirk 2011.

    Your logic is weak tonight.

    Just posted two Knicks vs Heat links. Posted the wrong second one initially, but check them out. In the first game, Melo and Smith had off games and they still DESTROYED the Heat.

    Carmelo didn't even play in the second game. The Knicks have the Heat's number.

    You had a question? I guess I don't notice children clamoring around me while the popsicle man's driving down the street playing his tune.

    Improve your behavior and try for your dime again tomorrow.

    Zach's playoff stats really stack up nicely against Aldridge's playoff stats. :devilwink:

    Durant was amazing for most of the game. Then in the fourth, with the defense keying on him, he couldn't hit. Shades of Nobitchy.

    That slime Fisher stunk up the joint for most of the game. He hits a late three, and the announcers peed themselves praising him. Typical.

    Odd thread, this one.

    Go Griz. Please put the Zombie Sonics and their hillbilly fans in the trash, where they belong.
