The Miami Heat are on a serious decline.

[nathanjizzle]

ofcourse miami fans will be delusional about the fact. How are they supposedly going to get better, when there all declining in stats. Also is that it for the heat team? LOL at them winning a championship, with 2 superstars and the rest scrubs.

You stared watching basketball yesterday?

I'm not even a Heat fan, but these are some of the most skewed statistics I've ever seen. First, by only presenting 3 years of data for certain players, yet 4 years worth of data for others, it simulates a larger drop off to support your argument. Then, its lacking many other important statistics true basketball fans want to see like Shooting %, Usage Rate, True Shooting %, etc. By simply presenting Points, Rebounds, and Assists, you are not accounting for the fact that, until last season, LeBron, DWade, and Bosh were the focal point of their own individual teams and are now attempting to assimilate into a different role.

They re easily going to win the chip this year -if no injuries- tho.

I'd be happier if all the Big 3 were around 20 PPG, like Boston's Big 3 were. That would mean some of the rest of the team is stepping up. Your numbers SHOULD go down on a team with 3 all-stars versus being the man.

[Vienceslav]

Oh god.
This is even worse than the guys using PER to prove Lebron is best player ever.
I don

[Soundwave]

Yup Miami should just wrap it up and not even bother showing up this year.

Let younger, hungrier squads like the Celtics and Lakers take it. ;)

[TylerOO]

Yawn.

Don't Feed The Troll!!

[Indian guy]

LeBron is.

Heat will be fine though.

This is one of the dumbest threads I've seen.
