All I kno is they better be prepared for this post season. Wade better not be walking around like an old man and Bosh better not play like he's Britney Griner. Teams are awaiting their downfall.

I know Bobcats will be the first opponent, but who will be second? It would be great if CHI play IND in the second round, I really think the bulls will win that series. What are the odds of that matchup? Cheers
As of now;
HEAT vs. Cats, Raptors, Pacers
Pacers vs. Hawks, BKN/Chi, Mia
Raptors, Chicago, BKN, Wiz can all switch their position based on the last 2 games.
If the Brooklyn Nets lose their final two games on Tuesday and Wednesday, the Wizards can sneak into the No. 5 seed with a win over Boston on Wednesday night. Which could put BKN at 6 and in our bracket.
Washington is one game up on Charlotte in the race for the No. 6 seed, but will need to beat the Boston Celtics on Wednesday in order to clinch the No. 6 spot. Otherwise, the Wizards will need the Bobcats to lose at home to the Chicago Bulls.
If both teams win, the Wizards would still lock up the No. 6 seed and a first-round series with either Toronto or Chicago.
Hope that helps!
OK...running away again! See you in the playoffs.

We have been waiting all season for this moment. Miami will be ready.

Not to bust anyones bubble but we were waiting all last season too and it took an impossible 3 by Ray to get us a win. Wade has been hurt the past two playoffs but hopefully is healthy this season. Things will be hard very hard, not a cake walk. Bosh can only do what the system allows him to do. Either way ready or not playoffs here we come.

this really isn't about a fear of the Nets because i really think we beat them easily in the playoffs but this is about the scoring threats the Nets have all over the floor. The nets out of everyone in the east outside of us, has the experience and scoring they need. Multiple guys who can score, off the bench also. With Lebron carrying the offensive load, this will really be about outscoring the nets because we really haven't proven yet we can stop them for scoring. Eventhough playoffs is a different animal.
But we are talking Pierce, Joe Johnson, Garnett, Shawn Livingston and Deron Williams - everyone can score, everyone is a threat. Then for us there its Lebron, Wade (might struggle), Bosh (might struggle), Chalmers (turnover machine and not that great a shooter), Haslem (will give us all he has). We have no guards that defend Livingston well. JJ can light wade up if wade is messing around, Pierce will try HARD, Garnett OWNS Bosh. When Ray Allen comes off the bench he cant guard anyone. Refs left the Nets body Lebron up how much ever they want. So AK47, Pierce and Teletovic can have a field day, hey even add Plumlee in there when Lebron is driving.
Again, I'm pretty confident about us against anyone in the playoffs but this Nets team poses certain problems that should concern you, especially in terms of exertion of energy. You want the most under the radar match ups as possible until the ECF, trust me. I still say we beat them but just saying, no one in the east has more firepower than them. Miami needs to speed them up but are never able to do that because JJ and Pierce go at their own pace regardless. Spo always seems clueless when we play certain teams also, Nets included.

I've never wanted to punch someone in the face so badly. Really hoping to run into him at a game one day. I won't hesitate.

Toney douglas is probably our best non lebron guard for livingston , maybe wade could be used if livingston is posting up too much
