I'm going to keep a very close eye on that game on March 15th against the Bucks because we're most likely going to see them in the first round and you know they're going to get up for that game. We have 9 games total left in the month of April and I just keep wondering Will Spo rest our Big 3 for those games since we're ahead of everyone in the East as far as seeding goes and I don't see the Pacers, Knicks, Nets, Hawks, Bulls or Celtics going on a major winning streak to catch us looking at their schedules...

As long as we beat Indy and Spurs I'm good.

think HCA throughout is very possible..

[Ratchet_Rio]

If everyone suits up there's no reason this team shouldn't win 63 games. There's only 8 on that schedule that should really be tough games; Indy, NY, Chicago & Boston x2, SA, @ Milwaukee. I think we will only lose 5 games the rest of this season, but things can change especially if we wrap up #1 in the East early.

[TheDon008]

WE WIN THEM ALL!!!!!!

HCA is awesome and all, but personally I don't think it's the greatest thing during the Finals..

That 2-3-2 set up can go either way

I agree with this and we won both Championships by by playing 3 straight games at home in the 2-3-2 format. OKC & San Antonio can have HCA to me, i'll take playing in the AAA for games 3, 4 & 5 rather than playing on the road at OKC or San Antonio. I think game 2 of a NBA Finals series is the toughest in all of sports because it could either go well for the home team heading into 3 games on the road and all they need to do is steal one game or the road team stealing game 2 and having 3 straight games at home...

Yep exactly.. I feel more confident in stealing either game and then playing three straight at home lol

Well, If you're better than your opponent you will find a way to win, simple as that. Having HCA would be the most bizarre excuse for losing.

Not saying we're gonna lose with HCA either lol chill... Just saying that it isn't as important during the Finals

Yep, HCA doesn't matter. Whether you have it or not, you have to win 4 games. This team loves playing on the road anyway, it's just the role players who have looked unease at times. If MIA does end up with HC it'll be nice at least to get the role players comfortable starting with 2 games at home, then let your stars really carry it if it comes to that on the road. Doesn't make a difference on the outcome either way, it's all about how you want to look at it.

True.. As long as we bring back that third trophy, I don't care if they play all 7 on the road lol

Correlation doesn't not necessarily imply causation, especially in a sample size of 2

So according to you there has never been an upset?

Since they started the 2-3-2 format in 1985, I count the team with HCA going 18-8...part of that is, of course, that the better team is more likely to end up with HCA. But still.

lol...Could you show me anywhere in my post where I said upset's don't or never happen? I don't remember saying that and I'm not seeing it either...but to answer your question, yes upset's DO happen...with or without HCA.

[Heats_Finest]

I have us winning 19 of those games and losing 4, but we win every game in April leading into the playoffs if our players all play.

[Tony15]

I'm marking the game @Boston as an automatic L. We never win up there during the regular season. It's never easy in Milwaukee, and the obvious games that will be tough is Indy, NY, @Chicagi, and @San Antonio. Don't sleep on the Cleveland game on the road either. They seem to always give us problems unnecessarily. Other than that, every other game is clearly winnable. I say we lose 7-8 games for the rest of the year....

[Heat fan06]

Will be interesting who ends our streak...reckon it will be on the road. The Boston game will be on a back to back.

[heat in italy]

I predict 62-20 at the end. 6 L until the end of the season, there is no way we finish with less than 60 W, only if relax or start to rest players
