  Those two factors (yours and mine) are my reasoning of why I don't see the Heat winning ANY championship until the Celtics/Lakers are dismantled, and even then I think the next superteam is OKC because of Westbrook and Durant.

  
  
  We will see what type of players the heat can add to their 3 stars. If they are going to be playing with a bunch of scrubs for the next 6 years, then yes they will never win a title. Someone might have to renegotiate their contract.

  I think it goes:
  
  Lakers
  
  Spurs
  Celtics
  
  Magic
  
  Hornets

  Miami Heat fall again in Dallas --- 4 of their last 5 & they are now 9-8
• hoops23

  

  The stats when LBJ and Wade are on the court together w/o Bosh are insanely in favor of the other team...
  
  I just don't think Wade and LBJ are going to last together. There were already murmurs that LBJ and Wade have "kind of clashed" in the locker room.
  
  The Heat are at their best when LBJ and Bosh are on the floor w/o Wade.
  
  Also, after 17 games, the Heat already held a 30 minute long players only meeting.
  
  17 games in. At 9-8.

  Showed LeBron run into Spoelstra when a time out was called... looked intentional to me.

  Not every rookie comes into the league and averages 20/5/5
  
  Or does what Blake Griffin is doing... ET has had some solid games, and he's had some bad ones.
  
  Doesn't mean he's going to be a terrible player. However, a player like ET, who does all things good, but nothing great, will need some time to adjust his game to find the best fit for him in the NBA.

  LeBron is the biggest bitch in all of sports right now.

  I still don't know what world I'm living in, with LBJ getting pillaged on OhioChatter.

  Pacers knock off the Lakers at Staples tonight. Kobe missed a 3 at the buzzer that would have tied it.
• karen lotz

  

  Kobe had 41 on 14-33 shooting.
• Laley23

  

  Pacers playing some good ball right now. Roy Hibbert has to be the favorite to be MIP thus far. Love, Gordon, Shannon Brown and B-Easy would round out my top 5.

  Shannon Brown?
  
  I'd say Hibbert and Beasley are 1-2.

  Yeah, why not?
  
  he has transformed into a complete player. I dont think I ever saw him do a thing but dunk before this year.
  
  Boobie has had a heck of an improvement stat wise, but that I think it a LOT more to do with PT than actual improvement.

  Laley23;580198 wrote:Yeah, why not?

  
  In the few Lakers games I've seen this year, it looks like he's improved his outside shot and that's pretty much it. He isn't a great defender, passer, or rebounder (to put it kindly).
  
  Statistically, all he's improved is about 3 ppg. His rebounds and assists are stagnant at 2 and 1 per game, respectively. I haven't seen it in games, and I don't see it from his stat sheet either.
• Sage

  

  Shannon Brown has been balling this year. His emergence is big for the Lakers, as it will allow them to rest Kobe more.

  Simply because I had to before it becomes old news....

  Heat up 20 late against the Wizards after LeBron and Spoelstra have a sit down meeting today. I think tonight is the first time the "big 3" have each scored 20 points in the same game. LeBron leading the way with 30/5/6 but also has 7 TOs. Wade shook off an early hand injury and has 26/8/6 and 4 steals.
  
  What is wrong with Wall?

  Wiz are just what the doctor ordered for that team right now

  Once again the only team the Heat can beat is one that is below .500
• karen lotz

  

  Agreed, not making much out of the win other than I saw the box score with the 3 20 point games.
  
  
  Really though, what's wrong with Wall?

  Didnt he sprain his foot or something? I thought I heard that he was in a walking boot
• wildcats20

  

  The Wizards were without No. 1 draft pick John Wall, who missed his second straight game with a bruised right knee.
