The Blue Board

Im not talking about his skills, they're unmatched.

Im just saying Rondo is the MVP, imo. The Heat are more talented than the Celtics, but when they've faced off, Rondo has been the difference.

This isnt an LBJ diss, but DWade is a bad bad man. And there is no way Shaq shouldve finished up with only one because he had Kobe.

Meanwhile for the bulls.

is it news to you that the Heat bench is weak? The Bulls have the best bench in the league.

Don't get too excited about a regular season Heat loss. Remember last year they won one game combined against Boston and Chicago then bounced em both in 5 games in the playoffs.

Yeah the record is impressive without Wade, thats why I said it wasnt an LBJ diss.

He is the best player though, so if he wins the mvp its definitely justified.

Its weird, but him a Wade just dont mix well in the half-court gm. In the run-n-gun gm they cant be stopped.

I know LBJ has always said he doesnt desire to play the point, but he's gonna have to do something.

That give the ball to Wade crap, while he sits on the wing, during the last 5 mins wont win in the playoffs.

Yeah the defensive angle of it does change things.

If LBJ plays that facilitator role, and we already know the defense is solid, they probably cakewalk it to the finals.

If they plan om relying on Chalmers, against maybe Boston in the 2nd rd, I dont think they make it.

Yout pick and roll idea would be a nightmare for opposing defenses though.

Everyone thinks that this team can just flip the switch come playoff time and the way theyre playing right now will just be a distant memory. Well, the Big 3 really couldn't have playe any better last night, and they played great defense, and shut down Derrick Rose, and they STILL lost. These rotation issues aren't just going to be magically fixed in 2 weeks.

Sig bet for the guys who think Celts will beat the Heat?

The Celts are terrible, they shot like 80% in South Beach the other day and barely won.

I would take Heat in 5, 6 maxxxx against the Celts.

The bench doesn't matter too much in the playoffs.

Wade and Bosh just need to play more consistent then they have recently.

Boston shot 60.1%, and dont forget the Heat had to come back from 18 down.

This^^ added to the 20 pt blowout Celtics win from 9 days prior, should be enough evidence for you.

Wade has been disappearing much too often.

Bosh has been a pvssy at both ends.

LBJ might play PG if the other guys around him are scoring. The Heat aren't doing anything when LBJ is off the court.

If Rondo is doing work, LBJ will defend him and own him, just like in the playoffs.

This team doesn't really need to win now. I mean I'd prefer them to win now, but playoffs are the only thing that matters.

Your only evidence for why the celtics are terrible is that they shot 80% and won a game?

And bench production doesn't matter in the playoffs, is that serious?

Even if that weren't the furthest thing from the truth, which it is, the Heat don't even have a starting five to count on.

So momentum going into the playoffs doesn't matter? Your blind faith in Miami or really just the Big 3 isn't very well founded and will come falling apart at some point in the playoffs. This team really has so many holes and LBJ and D Wade won't be able to cover all of them on their own over 7 games against a tough team.

DWade, and LBJ.

When you have superstars in basketball, a magical switch is a reality. LBJ and Wade have a good game together no one is beating them.

Heat were 9-6 in March before going 6-1 into the playoffs and coasted to the finals. Guess that wasn't realistic either.

Classic overreaction to regular season games, and even funnier because people are so desperate for them to fail.

If you guys are so confident let's make a sig bet. I'm the one manning up, you guys seem so confident why not step up?
