Beasley should have Ray Allen minutes. The old man can't guard anymore. On rotation or one on one he is always late.

I still don't understand why Raptors fans are all of a sudden Heat bandwagoners.

Brooklyn beat the Raptors, not hard to comprehend.

It's not that hard to understand. Generally when a team loses a series in a game 7, the fans are going to be cheering for them that beat them to get knocked out. Add in the fact that the Nets also beat the Raps earlier and the series was a little chippy with all the talk, not that hard to understand.

I don't know how the refs figure out how they are going to call some of these things. I'm not really concerned about the officials, just curious.

Battier grabs all over Johnson repeatedly in front of the ref but earlier gets called for a touch foul against a skinnier player; is it because he is undermatched vs. Johnson? Blatche can shove Bosh. It's probably confusing to the players, not knowing if they should play physical D or if they should be countering others' physical D with their own off arm pushes.

Easy there tiger...pretty sure MJ has never been swept in a finals series before...and pretty sure MJ never had to join up with 2 other superstars to beat his rivals aka Celtics.

This is true, but Allen at least makes the right rotations albeit slowly. Beasley ends up in the middle of nowhere and throws the whole team out of whack.

I like Beasley but his cluelessness makes him basically unplayable with Miami's defensive scheme.

So, did Miami secretly sign Blatche? Because him or LeBron, I can't tell who's been the best player for Miami tonight.

Yeah, he didn't have to join. Why would he? He already had Pippen (another top 50 player). LeBron had Mo Williams in Cleveland.

Let the raptors thing go. If Lowry made that layup it would be the raptors on the court. Not the nets

That makes no sense. Celtics fans are rooting for the Nets because we love Piece and KG. Are you then rooting for the Heat because you love... Bosh?

I love LeBron. He's my second favorite NBA player after Pierce. Not sure what the point of this is.
