    Yes, the team is better on defense with him on the court.

    You didn't see the defense he put on Kobe Bryant?

    They aren't winning it this year. If they do, 50 to the tipjar.

    Miami is going to be the team that has great seasons and a chronic case of collapsing in the playoffs.

    You guys know there won't be a Heat / Thunder final right?

    Because you know the Grizz is going to eliminate the Thunder right?

    We don't know it because it is not going to happen.

    Maybe not. But if I had to bet on him getting injured again or not being 100% during the playoffs I would.

    The stats resoundingly disagree.


    OKC gives up 107.6 points per 100 possessions with him ON the court, only 95.2 with him OFF as well as 4% higher field goal percentage with him on.

    If the Heat win, it'll be b/c of their perimeter defense. It's scary good.

    Lebron is arguably the most well-rounded defensive player in the league right now. He guarded all 5 positions tonight, and did a great job.

    82 games suggests OKC give up 103.7 per 100 possession, and 106.6 when off.

    This team when its clicking on all cylinders is unbeatable.

    It'll just be interesting to see though. Hard to really predict if they can do it consistently in the playoffs.

    Dang, what is their temperature? Probably contagious since both are sick.

    Miami is clearly the most talented team in the league. It's championship or bust for them. Has been since day one of super friends.

    However their window maybe smaller than you think. Wade is probably in the last years of his peak. His body is already showing signs of breaking down. Lebron is the best player in the world but he has yet to prove that he can bring it in the Finals.

    I think this year and next year will be the best chances to win championships. And they should do it this year.
