2014 NBA Playoffs Semi-Finals: MIA (2) vs BKN (6)

I think Miami should handle Brooklyn easily, but what's the history of teams that were swept 4-0 in the regular season beating that same team in the playoffs? Where would one find this info?

Is there any Raps/Knicks fans rooting for the Nets?

One more time, for old time's sake.

Didn't Brooklyn beat the Heat in all of their regular season match ups this year?

Regular season is irrelevant, especially a series of one point and overtime games. Ask the Bulls and Celtics in 2011.

Regular season isn't playoffs and Nets won 3 games by one point. No way does Nets give Heat fits so 95% of the world will pick Heat in 4 or 5.

As much as it sucks that Raptors are out, Nets stand the best chance against Miami right now

Miami in 7. I think it's gonna be close one

Because regular season /=/ post season. Wade didn't even play in 2/4 games, each game was decided by less than 3 points. Fresh legs.

Oh and LeBron.

Heat in 5.

What is the point in showing regular season scores? If we went by the regular season then the Spurs would meet the Pacers in the finals but we don't because the competition is different and adjustments happen and Kidd is in his first year as a coach and won't outsmart Spo. Your welcome.

Oh yeah, Heat in 4 unless Lebron is feeling generous and decides to throw his old (pun intended) rivals a bone.

I can't see the Nets putting much of a fight from what I've seen from them thus far.

Heat in 4. Forget about the regular season. The Heat are in the drivers seat and the Brooklyn geriatrics just barely clawed their way past Toronto.

Heat are going to feast on this team.

4,5 or 6 does it really matted their still going to lose. I can't see Nets taking even two games against the Heat since they barely outlasted the Raps and they're horrible.

Sweep for Miami, 5 games at the most.

Brooklyn can't/doesn't rebound and can't punish Miami down low for having Bosh at the 5, two things you have to do to beat Miami.

They were swept by Rose's Bulls in the regular season and lost to the Bulls in game 1 by 20 points.

Then they won the next 4 games.

Will LBJ be on PP or JJ? The Raptors main problem was stopping JJ, but obviously LBJ is one guy in the league that can handle him in the post

Who will advance to the Eastern Conference Finals?
