    Lol I knew you would react. I'm dead serious about thinking the Heat are going to win. Quit being a jerk.

    Sorry, but you did the same thing last year when Miami was up 2-1 and dominating Dallas.

    Are you serious? Some of the best players in the history of the NBA don't even have a ring.

    Things change. This is LeBron's year. It's not that hard to accept. Move on.

    What's disturbing is the amount of playing time Perkins is getting. He instant he touches the ball on offense he should look to pass.

    Lol @ Kendrick Perkins quote. When he has gotten the ball in the post against the Battier he hasn't done anything positive.

    Kendrick Perkins has a championship ring. He knows what he's doing out there so don't question scott brooks!!! (according to clutchfans you need to have a ring or else you're worthless. Perkins has a ring so he can't be worthless).

    Kevin Durant has not been ballhogging. Anyone who thinks Durant should be taking less shots to get Kendrick Perkins involved is delusional. Perkins has the worst hands in the NBA and he has no offensive game whatsoever.

    getting teammates involved is important. Perkins sets like 100 screens for Durant (or seems like it) the least Durant can do is throw him a bone or two to keep him engaged. Its human nature. If you played pickup ball nobody is gonna go out there and D up for someone whos ball hogging even if hes makin most of his shots

    Their rebounding has suffered last 2 loses

    Kendrick Perkins has gotten more than enough touches this series. A center shooting 42% in the playoffs shouldn't be whining about touches. Sure he is averaging 50% in this series on his small amount of touches but he is a worthless offensive player who should know his role and shutup.

    3-5 plays where they iso him isn't going to kill them. The guy lays his body out there every game to free up Durant and set screen after screen after screen. By ignoring him completely on offense he wont be as willing to play harder. Its the truth. Whatever Perkins gets nowadays is off broken plays or offensive rebounds, nothing run for him. Collison is usually an impact player and hes been just as useless on D and rebounding
