    i think people were split down the middle...some know what a reasonable timeline to yao's return is and others dont care about it and just assume he's done...personally i believe he'll miss most of training camp and won't play until a month into the season, but that still gives him enough time for the playoffs..

    Dont make this so complicated, all we need to do is convince TMac to sign a veteran minimum with the Heat. They'll never make it out of the first round, problem solved.

    It's nice to see that so many of us have not panicked over this Three Kings crap. We have a good team already.

    Oops. I meant 85-0 for the regular season. 82 actual wins, and 1 extra for each of the BIG THREE!

    At some point during the game, the Big 3 will go to the Big 2 plus Small 3, which means our bench better dominate. Force Bosh and Wade to shoot jumpers, Wade concerns me the most with his ability to get to the rim at anytime

    Because we only play them twice in the regular season and we already know that somebody key on our team will be injured and out for the playoffs so we will never get a chance to meet Miami in the finals :( :(

    I was thinking...

    our team build is very favorable against Miami.

    Our strengths are at C and PG, which are their weakest positions.
    We also have depth at each position and 2 good wing defenders to matchup against their wings.
    We also have players that draw fouls at a high rate. It doesn't matter how good they are if they can't stay on the court. They too have players that draw fouls often but they are not great shooters from deep so all we have to do is play zone and pack in it.

    Maybe I'm thinking too far ahead, but I'm not particularly threatened by Miami.

    Why so pessimistic?
