Yes, I Understand That The Heat

  • is a flawed team.

    But, Seriously....you can't find a way to get the foul before they drain the three in regulation????

    Can't ffn believe it. I was candid last year that I did not think the big three would get the Ship in their first year together. I also was candid on the fact that the Bulls - Heat regular season series and the Celtic-- Bulls regular season series meant NOTHING come playoff time.

    I felt they would gel and get the ship this year.
    New Plan: Heat are too flawed to win the Ship, and i'm not even confident they make the EC Finals.

    If they don't win it this year, Bosch Spice has to go, and we have to get some inside toughness.

  • Bosh has been solid this yr. Its not Bosh at all.

    Everyone puts it on the shoulders of the Big 3, when thats not the problem.

    D. Rose
    Rondo
    Collison

    These are 3 potential players that can end the Heat. If the Heat cant get anything out of the pg spot, its over.

    Check Bosch's stats since All Star break.

    I get what you'er sayin about consistency amongst the role players, and there's no doubt that when Rio gets 15 to 18 we rarely lose.

    But you tell me how Bosch---a guy who fuggin AVERAGED a Double-Double his last year in Toronto--can finish games with THREE rebounds. That's a serious f'in problem

  • I don't see the team winning a title with the current make-up. Coach is average at best and they have no supporting cast. The Bulls won tonight because they have a bench and they are tougher down low.

    It is going to be extremely frustrating for Lebron to watch other superstars win a title while he struggles to win one in Miami. This was supposed to stack the deck but it backfired.

    I understand the rebounds. No argument there.

    I still think that Chalmers will cost this team a championship.

    Lebron is gonna have to take over the point in the playoffs. If Chalmers is off, he has nothing to bring to the table, and the rest of the players have to work extra hard on offense.

    LBJ should be the goto guy, as well as Wade, but this is impossible without a true pg. Take the 4th qtr for example.

    Chalmers ineffective, LBJ playing point, and Wade taking all the shots, because they're the only two who can get people involved.

  • This is why you don't build a team around a SG, SF, and PF. PG and Center is the way to go.

    well when you have LeBron positions are a little more fluid. He has guarded Pau Gasol and Rose and everyone in between. He can make a team match up with anyone.

    Lebron is a pg, he's just in denial.

    If he were to play the point for the rest of his career, CP3/DWilliams/Rose would be afterthoughts.

    Im hoping for Fab Melo in the draft to be a big defender/rebounder and Nash in free agency. Idk how they will get the money Nash, but there is a chance with the MLE.

    i think fab melo would be a great fit. the dont really need a big time scorer down low, but a defender/rebounder like you said. im really hoping they cant afford nash...i want the bockers to have a chance in the east

  • If they dont win it this yr, the biggest change or newcomer wont be wearing a uniform.

    He'll be wearing a custom suit, calling plays on the sidelines.

    Bulls were hurt last year. And still young. Asik is healthy now and you see what he can do down low defensively against the heat, right? Asik and Deng weren't healthy at all. The Bulls still aren't healthy, but they can overcome it more easily than they could last year. Just some growing pains.

    I just don't see the Knicks getting it done with Carmelo. That guy is a cancer.

    They are going to overcome Rose being injured better than they did Deng and Asik?

    So far they have. They did count on Rose too much last year. The Bulls are a young team that needed time to build chemistry and go though some bumps. They always have relied on the bench. The Bench flat out failed them last year. That's all that happened. I don't see that happening this year. Rose has been out and they have the best record in the league. They are makeing steps. The scary thing is they haven't even really been 100% all year. What if they all of a sudden start hitting on all cylinders? Do you really think they could be stopped then?

    I hear on the Bulls, but in the playoffs, not many teams are going 9-10 deep.

    That bench will shorten, because the other team's bench will likely shorten.

    Rose is sitting out, mainly because of that reason.

    The best thing going for them though is that if needed, the roles players have najor confindence.

    Playoffs are a different animal. The benches shorten. Wade and LeBron won't leave the floor.
