Rebounding is their big problem, but other than that this team plays with absolutely no energy/passion. For a team with their star players in prime, this is incomprehensible.

Its not like you can gain passion and defense miraculously in playoffs series. If so, the Spurs would've lost 1-4 to Lakers in 08, and the Lakers would not have been swept in 11.

The Lakers thought they had cruise control too in 11, but then the Mavs showed how they were way too overconfident.

Oh really? The road games against Utah, Golden State and Indiana are sure losses, the other four are also clearly in favor of the opposing team.
:rolleyes:
It's the regular season. They're 5-5 in their last 10 and still in first place in the East. They'll get it together after the All-Star break, finish first in the East, and make the Finals. The other East team that got off to a hot start is struggling right now, too, going 4-6 in their last 10.
It's definitely far from panic time. It won't be panic time for the Heat until they're down 3-0 in a playoff series. They're that dangerous.

The win against OKC was the last time Miami beat a team with above 0.500 record(a big win though, the Thunder is a top contender). Since then they were 0-4 against playoffs teams, and these aint even title contenders. They can only bully lottery teams nowadays, the likes of Bobcats, Magic and Wizards if you ask me.
Wait so the reigning champs are considred pretenders to you? ISH is fing amazing. It truly is...
How can you call them pretenders when they made it to the finals two years in a row and are the current champions??

I'm a patient man so this suits me fine.
They're obviously not pretenders.
I don't understand why people are so scared of them. Last year was the year to be scared and everyone was talking about how OKC would slap them around if they met in the Finals...and I said that if that was the Finals (I didn't think OKC would make it but props to them) the simple fact that Miami were much better would take out OKC. But Miami has had their year and they're not going to turn it on like that.
Dwyane Wade cannot turn into a sidekick for an entire year and then suddenly D-Wade his way back into elite status. Even if he turns it on after the all-star break, he will not reach those levels this year. Bosh is going to play well but he's straight up a sidekick and not currently capable of being what he was in Toronto. And he's going to be overmatched at center. Lopez will outplay him, Noah will outplay him, Chandler will outplay him. If Bynum is healthy, he's gonna kill him...even if Bosh, individually, plays better. The Celtics, with an actual center (which I imagine they'll get) will kill him inside. Whether Varejao or Gortat. Even Horford could outdo him. People don't realize that the East has plenty of guys who can legitimately play the center position and that very dynamic will outdo him.
Which of these teams will actually beat Miami? I'm not sure that the Knicks would beat the Heat, but I wouldn't be surprised and I believe they'll be in the Finals before Miami. Miami is just not that impressive.
Overrated, as of right now. Come playoff time, the best in the world.

Dont panic already dude, its not even over yet. Lettuce look at their schedule up to March 4th:
continued from the Toronto Loss(26-18 record):
Cha W(27-18)
Hou L(27-19)
LAC L(27-20)
LAL L(27-21)
POR W(28-21)
@ OKC L(28-22)
@ ATL L(28-23)
@ CHI L(28-24)
@ PHI W(29-24)
CLE W(30-24)
SAC W(31-24)
MEM L(31-25)
@ NY L(31-26)
@ MIN L(31-27)
So yeah, 31-27 at the beginning of March, where will they be ranked at Eastern Conference standing by then? Fortunately for them, their schedule after that Minny road game looks easy, so perhaps they will go on a short 4-5 games winning streak then?
:lol

You have them being 4 games above .500, 58 games into the season? That's taking it too far...also, I don't get what you're laughing about.
Bookmarked so I can come back and laugh at your ass 58 games into this season.

Yeah, if you asked me the question yesterday Id think its almost impossible. But after looking at their brutal schedule for the next 25 games, I realize its actually more likely to happen than otherwise. I wonder if 31-27 is a 5th, 6th or 7th seed in Eastern Conference?
On an interesting note, the heat were 30-9 in their first season after bringing in Big three.

A couple of games lost, does not make previous NBA champions "Overrated Pretenders" It does however mean they're not playing up to par.

Well if the Thunder meets Heat in NBA finals this year, Id say the Thunder will sweep the series. It wont happen though since Miami is at most a 2nd round team and they aint winning 50+ regular season games.

Yea, I'm willing to bet your life on them not going 8-26 over any stretch.

Well its 8-16, not 8-26. Also its not the rest of the season, just the 58 games into the season. Anyway the Heat has somewhat of an easy schedule in March so they should still finish at around 45-49 wins.

Nah even I won't believe that would happen. We aren't beating Miami with Perkins as our starting Center. Make fun of the confidence (or lack thereof) that I have for OKC, but its simply true.

Yea, I don't know how I did that. But there's no way they don't win 50 games.
45 is ridiculous. They're not going to the Finals, but you're taking it way too far.

Lets see... At 31-27, they need to go 19-5 for the rest of the season to win 50 games. Even though their schedule in March is easy, it seems highly unlikely to me they can win 80% of their games from March 4th to the end of regular season. Even the Clippers and Thunder cannot guarantee such a high winning percentage.
Op is definitely a homosexual. Not that there is anything wrong with that..
