Not really. The Heat win or lose depending on whether their role players hit 3's. Ray Allen, Mario Chalmers, and Battier. When Bosh is taking more 3's than those three guys combined you have a major problem.
because lebron is the number 1 player in the nba. becuz wade, lebron, chris bosh all have improved from last year. overrated? lol...
Neither Bosh nor Wade have improved. Bosh is playing about the same as last year, but you have to consider Indiana to be the first legit playoff team they've played. Injury depleted Bulls and a 38 win Bucks team had no business being in the playoffs; it's just proof that the Eastern conference was atrocious this year.
You never know. They're certainly capable of winning three straight against Indiana, like they did last year without Bosh. Before the series started, I thought the most likely scenario was Miami winning the first two at home, then taking games 4 and 5. Now I think it's most likely going at least six.
At this point, I think most people can agree that the Heat overrated. Even if they do get to the Finals, they are certainly not dominating like expected. Lol.
I don't understand how they are overrated. Last year they were champions and they were down in multiple playoff series. They've completely dominated until this series, but this is the ECF, a close series is expected.
NO WAY MAN. EVERY TEAM HAS TO EITHER SUCK OR BE AWESOME. THERE IS NO MIDDLE GROUND. UNLESS YOU FO FO FO YOU ARE OVERRATED.
Yeah I didn't see Miami running over Indiana and didn't understand why some though this would be a 4 or 5 game series. With that said if Miami wins a title that is all that matters at the end of the day.
Bosh's go to move has always been jump shooting. He has never been a strong paint player. I would trade bosh. Their offense can live with one less shooter, while they can really use a better rebounder and paint defender.
It's ok to go 2-2 once you reach the conference finals. Opponents are tougher. When we won the championship, it wasn't all smooth sailing either. But I don't see many of us feeling our championship teams were overrated (even if Jordan didn't play).
With Asik manning the middle the Heat would be unbeatable. LBJ at PF. Battier or shooter at 3. Wade and Allen at 2. Chalmers for defense and spot-up shooting at PG. Best defensive team in the NBA easily. Asik and Battier for position D. LBJ and Wade weakside shot-blocking. Chalmers for ball pressure. Got height, got foot speed, got strength, athleticism, everything. Lin, Harden, Parsons, Bosh and Dwight could be good enough to win the western conference, but I doubt any team can beat Chalmers, Wade, Allen, Battier, LBJ, Haslem, Asik and Birdman. And if they luck out on a better back-up PG ... game over.
The Pacers match up very well against the Heat. The last team the Heat lost to before going on that huge winning streak was against Indiana.
Bosh is something we severely don't need. A perimeter player and a poor rebounder for a PF/C. With Dwight, different story though. If we can pull it off with Dwight, book us a spot in the NBA Finals.
