They have absolutely no answer for AD. He can get anything he wants against this team.

I trust Spo to make some good adjustments, but yeah they look outmatched talent wise no matter what.

Such a nice change of pace from the post 2016 Cavs teams.


Vogel has brought the grit of those Pacer teams to a group that actually has talent lol. It’s a lethal combination. They were looking like the best team in the league before the pandemic hit, and they look like the best team in the league this postseason by a full tier.

Lebron got hate for losing when he averaged a 33 point triple double in 2017 so I couldn’t care less if he doesn’t get FMVP

They have no answers at the rim, this is hilarious.

Heat are just outmatched. They've done really well to get to the finals.

When was the last time the Heat got a good shot?

I think we all underestimated this team's role players. Caruso/KCP/Dwight/Morris/Green are all high IQ 2-way players and playoff Rondo is actually a real thing lol. They have plenty of solid contributors, they're just missing consistent shooting and a secondary shot creator on the perimeter. If they signed Brogdon or Curry over Green and kept Lopez 2 years ago they'd be going for the wins record

Sucks that Dragic is out. I've always liked him as a player and he's been in the league a long time - you hate to see him miss a moment like this. Hope it's not serious and he's able to come back.

They can’t score without the white guys. But they have no shot at even having chance of stopping Lebron from walking to the basket on a switch.

They look pretty ****.

I think Dragic tore his Achilles. That is extremely unfortunate.

To Heej's point, a +2/+2 guy is way better than a +4/+0 guy. And Lakers role players are all two way positives, and Herro and Robinson are way worse than +0 on defense.

Sweep incoming? The shooting is obviously not going to happen again but the Heat having no hope defending the rim is not going to change, what are they going to do, play Olynyk or Meyers Leonard? :lol:

The other thing is that the Heat's offense has sucked even though they're shooting well from three. The Lakers are just way too big and physically overwhelming for this team.

In all likelihood AD is going to win FMVP but I'm fine with that. The haters are going to manufacture some nonsense to discredit this title no matter what happens.
