Atlanta Hawks @ Miami Heat 7:30 PM EST 3/7

[RhapidKid]

oh my god, I just looked at the Celtics schedule and not only is it brutal, but they might go down to the 8th seed.

Guess a Heat-Knicks 1st round is inevitable :| Unless Knicks continue to lose. I don't see us getting out of the 2nd seed. Bulls have even played 2 more games than us.

Don't forget we play the Bulls 3 times, starting next week Wednesday(or so). I don't even have a problem with the Knicks or Celtics.

Celtics - The 76ers(with all due respect) are a poor man's version of the Heat. They like the transition game too and are very athletic. Did you see how they sh*tted all over the Celtics? We'd sweep the Celtics.

Knicks - Need I say more? Okay I will . They're crap. Period. Not being cocky but it'll take an absolute miracle and some lazy defending on our part for them to take one game from us in a 7 game series. I don't see any real challenge until the Bulls in the ECF.

this thread is being derailed and be in the "Around the NBA" thread, but I just want to post this...


"(The Spurs) don't have nearly enough talent to compete with us," Stoudemire said. "Our personnel, our talent is off the charts.

lol@Amare. How disrespectful. SPurs are old but playing better basketball than you. You may have better personnel, but they damn sure can compete with you playing their game. It's not like their core has 4 rings or anything...

Some of you are too sensitive in regards to the media. What if they claim LeBron can't close? What if Dwyane was a coward for passing the ball? We won, while Kobe went 9/31 in an embarassing loss to the Wizards after leading by as much as 21.
This game and the Utah game as a contrast, by the way, also show how insignificant the "clutch" minutes are in the context of an entire game. Tonight we converted on those shots we missed against the Jazz and got the stops we couldn't get in Utah. In both games, however, we played too crappy for the first 40-45 minutes to not even be forced into a good stretch at the end of the game.

Does anyone have a vid of the LeBron/Chalmers handshake right before the Wade/LeBron boxing one? I seen it against the Nets and it was hilarious.

He was also courtside in our game against Charlotte. Hmmmm......

I'm not sure what Cam Newton is doing in Miami, maybe on vacation. But he was wearing a Miami Marlins hat too lol. Idk about being a Heat fan. He was at the game in Charlotte because it's near where he plays football, for the Carolina Panthers. He seems to have a friendship with Wade and/or LeBron.
