    In your opinion, what are the Heat missing?

    Sure, they have 3 superstar-quality players, but they are all outside players (even though a certain one shouldn't be); they're missing a big-man presence that teams like Boston (with the O'Neals), LA, and Orlando all have.

    I think that if Miami could get a good big-man to secure some rebounds and create a presence down-low then the Heat would be a much better team.

    They need more youth so they can run around the court with younger teams like the Bulls.

    They'll have MLE to add a player or two. Maybe they have their 2nd round draft pick, too.

    I agree on running to an extent, but a big player is a must-have for any team. If you're getting out-rebounded, the other team has more chances to score.

    The Warriors need an entire warehouse of that stuff.

    Some of LeBron's HGH would do wonders for them.

    I'm convinced Mixum and HK are the same poster. Denny, do an IP check.

    If he wasn't on my team I'd be bitter too.

    Must suck to jump ship from the Lakers who are almost certain to be in the finals again to a team with two very talented players who can't close out games.

    Well that's not very smart to say. The Lakers are at the same level as the Bulls, or slightly better.

    If they can beat LA they can beat your inefficient offense in a post-season series. If Bosh can go 4-18 instead of 1-18 you lose in Chicago. Or if Wade has 6 turnovers instead of 7.
