who do you have in a 7 game series?

HEAT

Twolves...they can rebound

twolves. wolves don't have anyone that can guard a decent big man but miami doesn't have one to take advantage of that.

I'd take Minnesota also, just shows you how pathetic that Heat team is right now. Though with a healthy Haslem I can see it going the other way.

Since this thread is talking about a playoff series, it begs the question to whether there is anyone on the timberwolves with post season experience. There can't be too much.

The HEAT still have a chunk of players that played on the championship team, and Marion who's got plenty of experience out in PHO. On the HEAT you also have a playoffs MVP in Dwyane Wade.

If you want Antoine Walker chucking 4s in the playoffs then look to the timberwolves.

To add more, the coaching experience of Riley would allow the HEAT to make the necessary adjustments in a 7 game series to win.

HEAT, not even close.

The Heat. Wade and Marion have playoff experience. Riley>Wittman

Al Jefferson would eat them for lunch, no one on the Heat can guard him.

Marion has guarded Duncan in the past. He could probably guard Jefferson as well.

heat. my man wade is the best player and he'd single handledy win the series

Heat in 6. Wade would step up.

Haslem?

Miami.

J-Will/Marcus Banks > Telfair

Wade > Everyone

Marion > Gomes

Haslem < Big Al

Blount = Ratliff

I go with Minnesota mainly because the Heat are inexplicably bad. C'mon, Wade, Haslem and Marion should be better than this even if they had no other players.

the thing about this is that though many people are saying heat, it asks the question "are they tanking already"?

I think so plus they have had enough injuries this season. I don't think their record indicates their level of talent but character issues and other intangibles made it worse plus the aforementioned injuries

someone has to win
i'll take the wolves

Heat has the best two players in the series, T-Wolves have much better balance and depth (6 of 7 next best players . . . at least); I'd go with the stars to carry the Heat but can see the other argument, the heat from 4-12 is about as bad as it gets, nothing but no-d gunners and wannabees.
