Leonard is healthy this year and has improved
Belinelli is an upgrade over Neal
Mills is playing meaningful minutes
Ginobli has been playing great and is healthy

While the Heat basically have Lebron and everyone else. If Wade plays like he did in the 2011 finals they could be tough to beat but I'm not sure how healthy he is.

Leonard played above his head last Finals and Cantonio still got besmirched

Spurs had Mills last season. There was a reason he couldn't get minutes ahead of Gary Neal. Patty Mills, the 3 point shooting specialist, is shooting .339 from 3 these playoffs.

Canu has been playing good because he's been playing vs laughable Western Canference defenses. Point blank end of story.

lol @ mistaking being inept on offense for being great defense.
 
People seem to miss the fact that there is literally no chance Danny Green plays like he did last year in the Finals. He's not as good as he appeared, and Wade is healthy. Heat in 6 unless Manu pulls a 35+ point game out of his ass. Then, Heat in 7.
 
Charlotte 24th, Brooklyn 14th, and Pacers 22nd in offensive efficiency = inept on offense

Just goes to show how dominant the defense is in the Beast
 
Crossed over

Then dunked on




ANNIHILATED


He didn't really get crossed over. He stayed on D the entire time, blocked the lob and turned to look for the ball. Unfortunately, the ball went straight up, which allowed the guy who couldn't shake him to catch it and put up another lob. Kid got annihilated by the dunk, but not really by "hot sauce" or whoever the fuck failed to shake the guy.

Props to him.

These are some very solid points Homer
 
All NBA TP, PEDuncan and Roganu will finish this in 5. One loss due to a LeRoid Rage burst.
 
I still pick the Heat because Lebron is the best player on the planet. After this year he should demand that Wade opt out and take the minimum. No way should that old fool get paid top dollar to play in 2/3rds of the games. Otherwise Lebron should think about leaving.

I love Wad but I can't disagree with this
 
Thanks. There has been a disturbing lack of science in this thread so far. Just trying to do my part.

Saying Green literally won't be as good isn't science. It's a gut feeling.

Heat were terrible against the 3 during the regular season, and are 4th worst in 3 point fg% allowed in the post season.

Danny Green is a 48% 3 point shooter during these playoffs.

That, is science.

LOL, yeah, because the West has a lot of really stingy defenses. Portland and OKC are particularly amazing. I'll rely on real science, like historical precedent and years of stats, to tell me Danny Green isn't going to shoot lights out this series. I'll save a special post for you after he cans it up in game 1.
