***OFFICIAL NBA PLAYOFF THREAD***

trj said:
They have got nothing from Miller and Battier. Battier defensive prowess is overrated and Miller was specifically brought in for his shooting and has been either hurt or afraid to shoot.

Miller was 2/3 behind the arc last night. Chalmers lead the team in scoring. The role players stepped up. Miami isn't winning **** with Wade scoring 5 points.

Well I knew Miami's role players wouldn't play that bad again but I didn't see the Wade no show coming. It's not very often Mario Chalmers scores 25 points and the Heat lose. Wade did this disappearing act last year against the Bulls but he had James and Bosh to carry the offense. They need him to play well in order to beat the Pacers.

Wade gets a bit of a pass because he has a ring.....Right or wrong, I guess that is a debate for another day.
 
The Heat aren't winning this series unless LeBron goes into Cleveland style beast mode. He needs to start throwing up 40/8/8 every game for Miami to have a chance. Wade's not going to lead the team anywhere in the playoffs, LeBron needs to be in takeover mode from the tip.

Agreed.....not just for these playoffs, but from here on out. Wade takes on a lesser role or you trade him.

I honestly dont see this happening either. I know you arent predicting its going to happen and I agree with you that LeBron either carries the Heat or they go home this round. I just dont see it happening.
 
Celtics and Thunder both blew it last night. Thunder should bounce back, but the Celtics really need to win game 5. Can you imagine a 6er-Pacer Final? That would be awful. I still think it would be funny if the Heat lost.
 
How about that logistical nightmare at Staples? Lakers, Clippers and Kings all with two games this weekend. I think Kobe will be too much for the Thunder tonight and will tie the series at 2-2. Spurs? What else can I say?

they will tie it 2-2 if they continue to shoot that many more Free Throws than the thunder get to shoot. But then again I don't see them going 41-42 from the FT line again.
 
Just to cut off this conversation before it starts--the ice is under the basketball floor at Staples Center every night of the year. Players aren't slipping all of a sudden because of the ice. The announcers are unnecessarily jumping to incorrect conclusions.
 
Lol at Pau Gasol saying he didn't make a bad pass on that steal by KD. "It was a good pass, he's just lanky and made a good play."

No, it was most certainly a bad pass. Someone with a five foot wingspan would have still made that play.

Nice call - James has 40 points, 18 rebounds, 9 assists, 2 blocks, and 2 steals in a Miami win. :)
