Misleading. 2 of those game featured no LBJ or Wade, another had no LBJ, and a couple more had no Wade. Take out the 3 losses where LBJ did not play, and they didn't miss a beat without Bosh.
I hope he is out for the rest of the playoffs and Miami wins it all. I want LeBron to win a title and I think with Bosh hurt him winning it will help his reputation.
At the end of the day a Championship is a Championship with or without Bosh. Either way people who hate LeBron will come up with some pathetic excuse if he wins a title. They won't win a title without Bosh, I'll admit I'm wrong if they do although it looks like Bosh might have a shot at playing the next round if they make it there.
Hibbert + West with no Bosh could make it interesting. But a lot of that rides on Hibbert dominating a game or two, something he doesn't do too often.
So Chris Bosh is treated like a stepchild the whole season and now that he's out Miami doesn't have a chance? C'mon man!
they should have no problems with Indiana, still think they take that series in 4-5 games. The rest of the playoffs is where it gets interesting. This may help Miami in a weird way though. People will start saying the Heat have no chance without Bosh, this could really fire up LBJ and Wade.
James has single-handedly taken worse teams deeper in the playoffs - granted against generally weaker competition. I don't see why the Heat shouldn't still win the East. But beating any of the Thunder, Spurs or Lakers should be a challenge without Bosh. But it could be a challenge with Bosh.
No way. They still have two "superstars", which is two more than many teams have. The also have the MVP of the entire league. That's the good thing about having three "superstars", if one goes down you still have two more to carry the team.
I guess so, as long as you expect LeBron to do something even Jordan couldn't....win without a quality big man.
Ya they should still be able to get the Finals. They have zero chance against the Spurs without Bosh though. He could return by then.
If Udonis Haslem was the Haslem of 2-3 years ago, they would be totally fine b/c he would be able to make that midrange J with ease, and rebound and defend. But this Haslem has fallen off of a cliff.
The reason people are saying that with Bosh out the Heat will have a hard time is because Bosh is their most consistent player. Yes he's soft and not a superstar, but when they get deeper in the playoffs, consistency is key.
they had that last year and still lost. you can't really say the Heat are that much better of a team this year. Lebron will fail again, and the lovers will cry and make more excuses.
I think En Vouge said it best about Miami's LeBron era title chances when they wisely and philosophically said, "Never, gonna get it, never gonna get it, never gonna get it."
