Rhythm my asss. People keep talking about how when both are playing good, watch how amazing they'll be. Well guess what? Both are not going to play good because you can't run an offense through two people at once. Either one of the other is going to have rhythm, and other teams' defense is not going to be as awesome as Boston, but still, there are going to be serious chemistry problems. There no way for both Lebron and Wade to have an "on" night. Bosh can have an on night with either of them, but they can't with each other. And you saw that tonight.
No way for LeBron and Wade to have an "on" night...so you think they're going to go through the entire season with one of them sucking every game?
Which is what, exactly? The Cavs were basically a one-man team, and those teams have a very difficult time winning titles. If you really think they had talent, then you should expect them to be competitive this year. But you don't (although I doubt you'll admit as much). Lebron didn't want to be another 'Nique so he moved onto a team with some talent so he'd have a chance. Yeah, the way he did it was douchey (he should have just done it without the hubub), but in the end, that's not really that important. I'm not even a huge Lebron fan. I can just be honest and acknowledge that he is far and away the most talent player in the league and pretty fun to watch.
they put miami in td garden because there really is no more hostile centre, the boston fans are loud, rude, and relentless.
Lebron better hope Wade and Miller get healthy and stay healthy. Because what I just saw was a supporting cast that wasn't as good as the supporting cast he had in Cleveland.
Agreed. 'Nique is one of the best players of all time and to not even be on the NBA top 50 list is a crime. However, his legacy is forever attached to the fact that he was never a winner (not even in the Finals), which is because his teams always had very little help. I think Doc Rivers was his best teammate many years... and this was back when teams were more stacked than they are now.
I thought the supporting cast was fine, and that Anthony kid is a keeper. The problem was that Bosh & Wade couldn't throw a pea in the ocean.
Did anyone else watch the game entirely on TNT's website which uses the court level cameras? You can see a lot more clearly just how physical it is out there. Players get away with a lot of shoving and pulling near the basket. It's brutal.
They will both have some "on" games. But make no mistake, these 2 ain't MJ and Pippen, neither has good skills off ball.
What? You mentioned LeBron never had help and this season would be totally different. And now Wade and Bosh can't do a thing?
Miami fans shouldn't panic over one game. Bron and Wade will be fine. I would be worried about Bosh though. He looked like a regular role player out there tonight. Not aggressive outside of that 1 dunk where he went around KG. I guess Miami fans can say Bosh will step it up and that his struggles was due to a good defender but if he struggles like this in the playoffs against Boston(if they meet), they will not beat Boston.
If Lebron is cold...he's gonna want to get it going. If Wade is cold....he's gonna want to get it going. It's gonna be hard to figure out how to get them to play well together....but they will eventually figure it out...and it'll be scary.
KG is a bad matchup for Bosh and would probably neutralize him should they meet in the playoffs. But there are two reasons Miami probably won't have to worry about Boston, should they meet: 1) KG is old and it's likely he won't be as healthy come playoff time (I hope he is-- he looked great tonight-- but this is just how things go) 2) Both Wade & Lebron lit up Boston in the playoffs last year and I still think the C's will have no answer for them once the Heat start to gell. This was really a career bottom game for Wade. If he's even 50% of his usual self the Heat win this game.
