Can we place a bet? I would like to bet that the Heat will win win four or fewer games in this series, and you can have the five and above range.
Heat still don't have that team chemistry Celt's have. Heat have 2 ways of play and don't transition from the 2 styles very well. The team that won't beat the Celt's are when it's Wade, Lebron, or sometimes even Bosh isolation half-court plays. If it's pass the ball to the open man or set up pick and roll + zone defense the Heat have a chance. Boston got this if Heat do otherwise.
Heat beat the Celtics by 20 last time they played, and will have Mike Miller and maybe Haslem back in the mix. Heat in 6 for me.
The East playoffs have been pretty competitive. The Bulls beat the Pacers 4-1, but four of the five games went down to the wire. The same thing for the Heat and Sixers. The Celtics swept the Knicks, but the first two games could have gone the other way.
I hate to break this to you, but Mike Miller is out of the rotation because he sucks this year. That's not going to magically change in the next week. Maybe next year.
I can't wait to watch KG rip Chris Bosh a new one. As for the rest of the Heat, as long as the celtics are able to slow down Dwade or Lebron, the rest of the defense will take care of itself.
You really should try to stick to a consistent message. Is this a Lebron-led team, or is it D-Wade's team? Or are you waiting to see if they win to decide (obviously choosing D-Wade if they win and Lebron if they lose)?
And they dropped 3 of 4 to them during the regular season. What does that mean? Nothing because the regular season doesn't matter come playoff time.
