you realize that there is a player named D Wade that plays for the Heat. he can kind of take over games like few in the NBA can


I must say, watching D-Wade in this series has made me realize how underrated he's become. I know he's largely considered an all-time great, but the narrative was that he was semi-washed up. Lebron should have stayed in Miami.


Thats true - however what about the absence of Chris Bosh over the past few playoffs? I think today's Cleveland team is better than current Miami squad with Miami on it no? Kyrie Irving is unbelievably good as is Kevin Love. Then you add 3 point snipers in Frye & Smith and you have a very tough squad to beat.

Everyone knows the playoffs are a different animal, but those games against the Cavs that we won at home during the regular season have to mean something. I'm confident we'd be able to take at least one of game 3/4 and maybe steal a game on the road, pushing the series to 6 games (or even 7). Miami would probably be the one to lose every game by double digits.

Technically, Miami still has the best DRating of all the playoff teams.

But I think the blowouts in Indiana games 4 and 6 skew the numbers the wrong way for us.

i think the raps not only play ugly in general during these playoffs, they also make their oppoents play ugly basketball too.

indiana is one thing, but miami offense which have been shooting the lights out against charlotte, just ground to a halt against raps.... i can imagine some of that against cavs to if we make it to ECF. it wont be pretty..

I'm not arguing there. I think it goes at least 6 games, and I'm not guaranteeing a series victory either. Honestly, I think some adversity would be good, because if we do make the Finals, you don't want Golden State to be the first team that really punches you back.

-The best center out of the 3, Granted Val comes back healthy
-The best depth and best role players
-The loudest arena and the best fanbase

How can a team that is about to face elimination be able to steal two games from the Cavs whereas the higher seeded team would be blown out. Straight up delusion this is the prevailing thought in shamblesland.

Why are Raptors fans already talking trash to this Cleveland guy? :crazy:

We're not even out of the second round, and as it stands, the Cavs would probably beat us in 5 or 6.

Game 6 is not at all a given. Winning a Game 6 on the road is one of the hardest things to do actually. I'm hopeful, but the odds are against us especially given this is not a team known for its killer instinct and long playoff pedigree
