NBA: *** NBA Playoffs Thread V2.0 ***

Its pretty simple for the Heat, they need an effort like last night from Wade a couple more times. This reminds me of the Mavs series a few years back if they don't get 75-80 points out of the the "Big 3" they don't win. Def not an impossible feat.
 
Avoid the question and insult me. Pretty typical for you. Why don't you answer my question as to why you're holding Spoelstra to this unrealistic expectation but not Pop? He's had the greatest pf ever and at least one other elite player on every spurs team after his first season.


Spurs have had quality competition is the West notably the Lakers. Since 1999 outside of the thunder and dallas twice last decade or so has been Spurs or lakers representing Western Conf. The Miami trio made a smart decision, as East was already weak so they stacked the deck to team up in that conference where a finals appearance is a virtual lock.
 
Bosh fined for flopping...going to be interesting where this leads. On one hand maybe the Heat are being singled out...or more accurately Heat games are being singled out since Heat flops resulted in Pacers getting more flopping fines than the Heat. It's the result of the most talented team and talented player being huge floppers for the first time ever, the league is smart enough to know that's not a good long term trend.
 
Hopefully Ginobli shows up. Parker and Duncan need to have a talk with him..ask him why he didn't just stop aging like they did.
 
Spo did an awesome game of informing his team that this was their biggest game of the year, and that all they needed to focus on was two more wins. Brilliant.
