2011/2012 NBA Thread: Where Weather Happens

[Doc Samson]

I think this game is too close already, without those TO's maybe they'd have a bigger lead, but as it is right now, with Wade hitting damn near all his shots, it might be a wrap...

 

[Daniel Thompson]

Wade has 30 points already and its only the 4th quarter. I think Indiana is in trouble and the Heat just might close this series out tonight.

 

[Daniel Thompson]

Well Indiana put up a good fight but looks like the Heat are back to the eastern conference finals.

 

[SentinelMind]

Put em away, Miami...put em away on their court.

 

[DoomsdayApex]

Well, that's a wrap. The Heat got this.

Suck it Pacers!

 

[SentinelMind]

I was worried when Heat were done 2-1 in series..

Pacers did pretty good this year...but its Heat time...

Miami Heat..we can't be beat.

 

[Matt]

Not to take away from what the Heat have done, but the Pacers have basically given them the series. Larry Legend was right, Pacers went soft after game three. The turnovers and mistakes gave Miami the series.

Again, that isn't to take away from what Miami has done. They've been taking advantage of the opportunities that Indiana has given them. But Miami has been playing thoroughly average basketball. Any team could have won this series with the way the Pacers played after game three. If the Heat want to beat Boston or either of the Western Conference teams, they really need to step up their game and play exceptional basketball.

 

[Daniel Thompson]

Pacers are def the team of the future.

 

[Daniel Thompson]

^ Thanks Matt for just ignoring the fact that the 76ers can play Miami next round.

 

[DoomsdayApex]

Yep, Boston hasn't given me any confidence that they're playing exceptional, especially after blowing the lead last night late in the fourth quarter.

 

[Matt]

^ Thanks Matt for just ignoring the fact that the 76ers can play Miami next round.

Sure they CAN, but like the Pacers, the Heat can beat them playing average basketball.

 

[SentinelMind]

I hope Miami takes on 76ers..that would be an awesome break.

Celtics can't take out 76ers...and people though Bulls without Rose would beat em?

 

[Daniel Thompson]

^ They can, but the question is can they? I mean Miami has had Wade and Lebron step it up. Boston has really had KG out of the main stars play good this series.

 

[Daniel Thompson]

SentielMind what awesome break are you talking about. I know 76ers have not shot at beating Miami in 7 games but they would atleast give them a run for there money. You make it seem like the Heat are this unstoppable force that cannot be stopped.

 

[Mister J]

Miami Heat..we can't be beat.

That's some old school Heat right there. I feel it down in my soul.

Ain't nothing average about Wade and James entering God Mode.

 

[DoomsdayApex]

I'm rooting for Boston to win. Miami needs to be challenged to stay awake. Rondo and Garnett will provide big issues for The Heat.

 

[Matt]

Yep, Boston hasn't given me any confidence that they're playing exceptional, especially after blowing the lead last night late in the fourth quarter.

I think Boston got cocky against the Sixers, took the series for granted. I don't think you'll see that mentality from them against the Heat. Plus the Celtics have something that the Heat does not, defense. Factor in that on his worst day, Doc Rivers could outcoach Spo on his best, ten times over and I see the Celtics narrowly defeating the Heat.

 

[SentinelMind]

I'll admit...Miami has this weird way of losing to mediocore teams and destorying good teams....Lebron and Wade have tendency to be overconfident...

But I ain't worried about either team....now..the Spurs/Thunder...that's a real threat right there.

Anyone can enter God mode when your opponent is basically handing you the ball and playing no defense.

 

[DoomsdayApex]

Ain't nothing average about Wade and James entering God Mode.

Exactly, there's nothing average about Wade and James combining for +60-70 points.

 

[SentinelMind]

Spoelstra is sweating profusely with that "Thank God its over" look on his face.

Maybe so, but keep in mind, these Celtics aren't precisely the most physical bunch when arriving to defense. Their X-Factor lies in Rondo, in my opinion. Miami has no decent match-up for him.

stop hatin....its history in making right here...
Lebron's first ring...

aawwweeee....yeaahhhh...

 

[Daniel Thompson]

And the 76ers do not have defense? They was 5th ranked in defense this season in the NBA.
