    That's great we share some of the bad parts of that squad. One glaring difference - they had locker room leaders in Riles and Shaq. We have no one that can hold others accountable.

    the main difference is they had a go-to scorer in d.wade and we have t-mac who settles for jumpers and yao who fades throughout the game. we probably have the most overrated superstars in the league.

    If you think of T-Mac and Yao as perhaps the most overrated superstars in the league, then don't you think of them as average players now? I certainly think so, and will continue to think that way about them until we see them play like superstars in every game. I have said that in other threads within these past few weeks.

    Sure, they get double and triple-teamed a lot by opposing defenses. I know that the role players who are in the game along with those two can make things easier for them if they would step up and make opposing teams pay for all of their double and triple teaming on those two all the time, which is just something that needs to happen.

    Even if this team makes the playoffs while playing the way they are now, they will likely not go far.

    I would love to get swept in the first round a year after WINNING THE CHAMPIONSHIP. Get some perspective, rookie.

    tmac isn't holding D-Wades jock...........................D-Wade did it with less talent and he's not afraid to take over a game..........

    We are like the Minny of Garnet and Dwayne Casey as well. New coach, new pieces, high hopes, ok record in the begining, and ship wreck at the end. And I can tell you half a dozen other teams of similar and ended up as utter failures.

    Stop all these rational-less comparison, like we are learning to ride a new bike, put some ratioanle in the argument, which I dont see.

    Only if we were in Eastern conference.

    Differences
    -we are in Western conference, Heat only has to play one western team in a 7 series game. we need to play our ways to the western final.

    -East just got much better, with KG, Ray, lewis... Boston, and Orlando to name a couple

    -Heat was playing against the softie Mavs

    We can only hope but I would never compare us to the 05-06 Heat unless we started to show signs of life.
