    No. Now, do you think they can beat BOS, ORL, or CHI (w Boozer) in a 7 game series w/o HC advantage?

    Wasn't this part of the pitch to sign Bosh..

    Well I guess Bosh made the right choice cuz we are on pace to win like 25 games

    the way they are playing now? no. but lebron and wade won't shoot 43% all season and they will figure it out. and they will have mike miller back. the only team they will struggle to beat when april rolls around are the celtics and lakers b/c of their lack of size.

    they will figure this all out. but it's slower than they thought. they will end up with 53 wins or so and meet the celtics somewhere down the line.

    If it's on Morey's iPad, it must be true.

    He only said if Bosh joins Wade in Miami, not if Lebron joined as well.

    It seems that Morey may have been right, but probably for the wrong reason. I don't think the problem has been the lack of a supporting cast. The biggest problem is that Lebron and Wade haven't figured out how to play together (yet?).

    It's funny that some were saying they were gonna kill straight off the bat since all 3 have had experience playing together from the redeem team. Glad it's not working out that way though.

    LOL ... touche.

    Morey seemed to be pretty high on the Heat at the start of the season. I'm not sure how accurate that report was that he was saying they'd win only 45.

    he said 45, but that was when the heat had chalmers, joel anthony, mike miller, and bosh/wade/lebron signed.

    Although on radio:

    DM(early thoughts on Miami): They are a very good team right off the bat. Got 2 of Top 5 players, maybe 3 of the Top 10 and thats a recipe for a very good team no matter what's around it. Incredible team to beat. We've had luck against good teams. A lot of quality wins recently. We'll be focused on the W when they visit.

    H: Does chemistry have a big part on whether they'll be good or not?

    DM: Generally, it's overrated. Winning breeds chemistry. Many thought Artest would hurt the Lakers. We knew Ron was a better teammate than given credit for. A little corky but on the floor he's solid. Generally overrated but that said, we've had good chemistry and hope that creates wins. We focus first on getting good players and chemistry follows.
