Game 1: Knicks @ Heat - Saturday 3:30PM

[cb1]

Just heard Bosh on the Jax show talking about starting at the 5, he's not thrilled...BUT

Bosh you gotta do it bruh. KG at his old age is doing it now and it revitalized him and made the C's better. It made them better because they have one of their best, reliable guys playing at the position they are most weak at.

YOU CAN DO IT BOSH!!!

What's this dude complaining about?smh he's the highest paid player on the damn team and the reason we don't have a legit center. He better man up and abuse Tyson this series because he's the X factor whether he likes it or not!

[DefenseWins]

Chandler missed practice today, he has the flu or something.

Oh and I better not see Bibby go off. I'D BE SO PISSED!!!

[Mehar]

Time this guy mans up. KG played the 5 all year and looked great. Bosh needs to hold his own against Chandler and play his heart out.

[LeBronsHairLine]

As Heat fans, we should show our support by shaving our hairlines to match Lebron's.

^Thanks, troll.

Do Knicks fans realize we swept them in the season? It's not like the games were close nail-biters. This is the most-ridiculously scrutinized lopsided series in the world. We're gonna kill this team, but people are talking like they have a chance to beat us. PEACE.

Chicago swept you guys last year.

Are you really comparing the #1 seed who by the way had their ass handed by The Heat to make an argument for a #7 seed, who by the way had their ass handed by The Heat?

That's my point, regular season series is moot right now.

[OtW]

Knicks can get up on us if we get complacent. Let Melo get his 30, just crash the boards and run the role players off the 3 point line.

I think Haslem/Joel can someone limit, but certainly not contain Amar'e. It should just be enough.

Also, Bosh:

Man up. Rebound like you were before the injury. Now is your chance I gain redemption after Tyson made you his bitch on the glass during the finals! Take this opportunity!

suspend this troll.

MSGLegendNY - This one too.

[Vertical Limit]

Joel has contained Amare and Amare has been ass all season except for like 3 games.

No, they didn't. 3-1. We won the last game. This is my point. At what point this season have the Knicks looked our equals?

I know I'm trolling hard on the GB, but on here, I'll be rational. At what point did the Knicks look like a match for the Heat? We beat you guys when we were playing bad. I don't think this should go unnoticed. You were one of the teams we beat when we were slumping. How is this series even remotely in doubt? Where does this confidence come from?

I can at least point to our team looking ridiculously efficient, at time last season, for some of my confidence going into the playoffs. However, the Knicks started off lottery bad. Beat a bunch of scrubs during Linsanity. Got that shutdown in epic and unwavering fashion against us. IOW, we smashed you guys hardest when you looked your best. Now it's just been Melo beasting against coasting teams. You guys could have made a run at the 4th or 5th seeds, but you've instead hung around the 7th and 8th seed most of the season. You guys have been playing 6th or 7th seed ball most of this season. You guys are not surging.

Where the hell does the confidence come from. Frankly, it's a bit insulting. PEACE.

[TheDon008]

^^ ownage.

[Vertical Limit]

It's not confidence it's delusion. We'll send them all packing soon enough, Woodson is going to be looking for a new job and Amare will be gone. You're welcome New York.

[Chosen01]

I always lol when Knicks fans refer to the Heat as cHeat.

Just to remind them(never gets old)...

NY WELCOME TO ANOTHER DECADE OF IRRELEVANCE!

[DefenseWins]

lol we beat the Knicks when they were doing well and looked like a different team. Yeah no Amare or Lin (same dude that got eaten alive by us).

Nine game winning streak at home, and the Heat come in and snap it.

And we were playing our worst basketball since the AS break...

All the Heat-Knicks games didn't come down to the wire like the Bulls-Heat games last year.

It was LITERALLY one shot that was the difference between all those games. Heat kept securing the win against the Knicks the last few mins... it just seems different.

I'm sure Philly thought last year "they swept us in the regular season but we'll beat then in the playoffs!"

Philly then goes 1-4 lol. Even tanking to avoid us.

We'll just have to wait and see. Thankfully game 1 is tomorrow. So tired of seeing our 3rd unit (not even the bench that will play in the playoffs, just the 3rd unit the past games) try to score. SO pathetic. Finally some real action.

[Pimpwerx]

I got my Facebook status trash talk in full effect. This is one of those times being friends with a bunch of Knicks fans will really pay off.

Before the playoffs begin, I'm gonna start the "Spo for Hall of Fame" bandwagon, so people can't say I'm a front-runner.

Who are the two most-criticized people on the Heat? Lebron and Spo. Lebron's about to win his 3rd MVP...nuff said. So what's so good about Spo? For all his perceived flaws, he inherited a 15-win team, and despite that, he has coached a grand total of 12 games in 3 seasons with his team having a losing record. He has never missed the playoffs. The one time he had a team capable of making the Finals, he got there. He made the playoffs two years in a row with a team we all now know was tanking to sign the Big3. You know what? We're a bit of alright with Spo. You need to hop on the hype train before he banks that first ring, because it's just gonna be raining championships down here. Destiny and dynasty await.

Knicks up first. Let's go HEAT!

I never said we were equals, all I said as regular season series doesn't mean much using chicago as an example. That's all.

Also you didn't beat us when we looked our best. If you don't think we are surging it's because you are not watching the Knicks day in and day out. It's very obvious we are.

And for that guy that says suspend me for trolling, If you think I'm trolling I hate to see what is.

[DefenseWins]

in other news, as soft and injury prone as Miller is, he survived Eddy Curry stepping on his ankle. He will be fine. PHEW.

just ignore the NY fan... with more arguments, more NY creatures will come out and infest this thread... last thing we need.

[Miamis3rdRing]

Rebounding game-by-game (Total, Offensive)
Heat: 40, 6
Knicks: 39, 9

Heat: 46, 14
Knicks: 41, 14

Heat: 47, 11
Knicks: 33, 7

The first two games we had Joel starting. The last one Amare was out and we had Bosh at Center with UD at PF.

Obviously the playoffs are a different ball game but I like the move to put Bosh at C.

Edit:
Tyson Chandler has the flu per the Knicks board. According to Amare/Carmelo he'll play.
