So disrespectful to Miami. Don't sleep. Very good team with a championship experienced coach. Boston is strong and MIA is, at times, making it look easy. 

 

Going back to the MIL series, if you look at MIAs 7 wins, Butler scored 20 or less in 5 of those wins. In the 6th win he scored 24. As an opponent, that has to be nerve wracking. 

 

And unlike POR, HOU, and DEN, MIA has at least one player that might be able to give LBJ some problems. Butler will give it his all in trying to go at LBJ defensively. Crowder might even be better than anything those other three teams had. 

Oh cmon. Miami doesn't have an answer for LBJ and AD. If Lakers lose it will be a huge upset.

Let's go HEAT!

 

Congrats on getting there. This should be a great match up. Spoelstra is the most underrated coach in the game. All the pressure is on the Lakers. 

 

I personally want to see LeBron get it done. I think that would be an incredible narrative and add to his legacy. 

 

Should be a lot of fun.

I might have been too generous giving the Heat a game. 

 

A game can get away from good teams. The injuries and foul trouble for Bam put them in a bad position. If there are missed games when it comes to injury, the Heat feel pretty thin and can't withstand that. If Bam and Dragic are somewhat okay, they can make adjustments. Game 2 will tell us whether there is a chance or the Heat just don't have the firepower. 

 

But damn, the Lakers are on another level defensively. They have all bought in to Vogel's system and seem to swarm and force all kinds of measures. 

 

With James focused like he is and Bam is limited, we're in for beatdown.

It was almost like the Lakers wanted to see what the Heat could do in the 1st and then just decided to turn it on from there. 

 

I just don't see the Heat having an answer for LBJ and AD even if they are 100% healthy.

What an amazing game that was.  Incredible 4th quarter, amazing tension, amazing shots.  Classic stuff.

 

Today is one of the greatest days in sports history after seeing both the Yankees and Lakers lose postseason games on the same day! :biggrin:
