I don't like any of the match ups to be honest but i'd rather play the Wizards.

Wanting another first round slugfest against the Bulls is sheer insanity.

butwebestthemonceina regular season game. For some of us that's enough to believe we can easily win a 7 game series

The team has now established an identity and is becoming known for being a turnover causing small ball team with versatility at each position. So I have a bit more confidence but if i had to choose I'd rather play the wizards. The Bulls are not going to be an easy out and we don't need that in the first rd.

After watching a scrub like Dalembert look like a prime Alonzo Morning I really don't want to see what Noah could do to us in a 7 game series without HCA this time.

Bear in mind Dalembert is long whereas Noah isn't. Dalembert can jump, which is why he managed to block a lot of shots. It is important to remember that while we may get outrebounded, we compensate by our great defensive causing turnovers and difficult shots which is a big staple of Miami's success.

Only thing is we haven't shown we can score without chucking up a ton of threes and we haven't shown we can defend without forcing turnovers. We lost a game when the opposing team only had 15 turnovers

The stats say otherwise; top 5 defense since 2014 means something. It's not like 27-11 happened without defending.

Yeah but as you can see, when we force turnovers we look unstoppable. When we can't consistently force turnovers our defense looks below average. Which is how we can give up 116 points to Charlotte and 114 to the Pelicans.

We haven't really held a team to under 100 points without forcing turnovers since KG went down, so it's still a mystery to see how we will do against teams that will adjust.
