chicago will NOT beat the heat, regardless of the reg season record. they had a double digit lead in both games lebron played against them late into the 3rd and just choked. they seem to have resolved that issue. vs boston, they always were behind from before and had to come back so this game is huge.
I think that is the most likely scenario for the finals this year. However, with Miami's track record of choking in close games I wouldn't bet any money on them just yet. It's very clear now that the Celtics are not going anywhere unless Rondo plays like an all-star.
The Celtics are broken and it's a pipe-dream to think Shaq will fix it. Rondo has to bring more than he did today. Something is wrong with him.
Yeah a Miami fan started that "official heat thread" and you are the one that bumps it up every single time. As I said, Boston vs Miami is a good game to watch if it is competitive. It's not like Celtics have a huge following on this board anyways, in fact most posters thinks KG and Pierce are the biggest douches in NBA. Stop acting like a paranoid Heat r****d and thinks everyone is here to get you.
JVG is right. They are trapping Allen everytime around, and Boston has NOT taken advantage of that. Allen will be a huge problem for the Heat if left guarded alone, so the Celtics need to focus on taking advantage of the double team trap on Allen.
Rondo will never play like an all star until he learns how to make a open jumper. I find it funny that Rose found a jumper 3 years into his career and Rondo still bricks after 5.
Rondo and Perkins were boys so I don't think he has gotten over him leaving. He better turn it around soon. Won't be shocked if Philly takes them 7 games. Everyone was against this trade but Ainge. Doc tried to stop it from happening.
miami never makes it easy. stupid turnover, 4 heat players knocking a rebound away from themselves and then anthony seemingly just looking at rondo as he picked the rebound up right in front of him followed by a pierce 3. lebron leaves and it's 11-2 boston.
why do the heat get complacent, start jacking up jumpers instead of staying aggressive thus letting the opposing team go on a run?
These two are the new incarnation of goodbug and clippy. It's funny because they call each other trolls. Oh the irony.
