    I think he's ok, not great. His choice of personnel is strange at times though.

    Apparently not to SA, but yeah.

    Doesnt help that the Heat have exactly 1 player on their entire roster with passing ability and court vision lol

    It's just too much on him, then he finds guys and they can't finish or make an open shot. They've asked him to do way too much all year and it's biting them in the ass.

    Kinda the burden you get when you're the best player in the NBA and on your team. I wouldnt be shocked if they lose to see something major happen in the off season for them

    Pretty obvious they have to make serious changes, their supporting cast has been awful. They look old/slow/tired, 4 straight finals trips will do that. DWade looks like he's done at an elite level. Like Chuck said no player has ever had to do as much as Lebron on both ends for them to win, looks like it has caught up to them.

    His teammates have been terrible.

    I think the Big 3 will stay in tact, but changes will definitely be made. They need to desperately upgrade the PG position.

    Spurs with that euro style ball, shoutout to Sabonis.

    But but but the heat will win in 6 says rob. It's all about matchups says oh wise rob. If you watched basketball,you would know the spurs are just too good. I put money on them to win, because I watch bball and know a better team when I see one.

    If I saw you in real life I would knock your teeth out just for being a ******. I was wrong, something I'm man enough to admit. Pop has them figured out.

    Lebron - 28pts on 17 shots, 8 boards.

    Rest of the starters - 28pts on 34 shots, 7 boards.

    Saw this on another forum.....sound familiar?

    I want this to be over. Spurs 4-1.

    S&L would give u $50 to leave him alone.

    Well he's averaging 28 ppg shooting 60% from the field and 61 from 3, no one can make a play or an open shot. I think some of the blame has to go to Spo but those guys just haven't risen to the challenge.

    No but the way the teams play is different (well for SA, just uber effeciently)

    Spurs: The whole team is just honed in and playing better, Patty Mills and Diaw have been the catalysts for that. Mills didn't exist last year.

    Heat: No Mike Miller, essentially no Shane Battier, and the Heat have lost a lot of the deadliness of their floor spacing. The Spurs are able to cheat a little more on help D because Miami is worse than last year at making the Spurs play for leaving someone open.

    This is pretty much how I saw it going, as long as Parker was healthy to run the offense. The Spurs are a better team and the Heat are a worse team, relative to last year.

    Everyone else has already said this more or less, but the Spurs supporting cast (Leonard, Mills, Diaw, Greene, etc) have just been outstanding. Miami not getting much from anyone besides Lebron. IMO, the Heat are one loss away from some big changes this offseason.

    Sounds like Mike Brown's offense when Judas was here in Cleveland.

    Things not looking good for Judas and the CHeat but the fat lady hasn't sung yet. Hopefully, SA closes it out with an epic beatdown at home this weekend. Or better yet, Parker hits a game winning 3 pointer, ala Michael Jordan, and then pulls off his mask only to reveal that he is, in fact, Delonte West coming back to haunt Judas again.....

    Why no Battier? Body give out?

    I didn't take gym class, because I was too busy being successful at my sports. Enjoy your worthless degree!
