It is always the cowards who never make predictions coming at others who made predictions....Where was this energy last week?

My prediction was made on Tuesday. You wait til the Heat are down 2-0 to make a comment lol

This board is full of lames
i totally agree with this comment. There are so many people on this board that never make predictions out of a fear of looking wrong.

fortunately (and at times unfortunately) that has never been my problem.

I fully expect the Heat to replace Nunn and Ariza in the starting lineup with Dragic and Dedmon

basketball is a crazy game

on the way to Game 6 of the Finals last year the Heat played 21 playoff games and they did not once hit 20 threes in one of those 21 games.

I do have to say- with DiVencenzo having another year under his belt, and Holliday being added to this Bucks team, they are more athletic, and lengthy on the perimeter.

I think Herro is going to have to be one of the guys to step up in this series if Miami is to get back in it.

Of course Butler is also going to have to play better too. Holliday is a much tougher matchup than Bledsoe. Bledsoe had size but his quickness had deteriorated.

Connington and Forbes arent going 11/18 from 3 again either. Guys like Divencenzo and Tucker arent great on offense but they are lengthy guys that play D- which has helped Milwaukee if you ask me.

I agree that Dragic needs to be on the court more. They need to push the ball and get some easy buckets before the Bucks set up there defense.

Divencenzo, Tucker, Middleton, Giannis, is a of athleticism and length- playing half court against the Bucks all the time isnt gonn help. Jimmy and Bam need to get out and run and Dragic needs to push it and Herro needs to use some of his athleticism. Iggy and Ariza- at hteir ages and athleticism- might not be the best equipped to beat that type of defense and length that the Bucks have.

Some people on this board act like they just started watching basketball yesterday. A team holding serve at home means very little if you go on the road and lose both games.

Series is far from over. Milwaukee did what they were supposed to do. Now Miami will have their chance

You're also confusing the Heat with the Orlando Magic. The game the Bucks boycotted was a game in the 1st round against Orlando.

Teams change and play different season by season. The whole discrediting any of the teams in the bubble because they're not performing as well this season for a number of reasons just makes you sound like a hater
I think this is true. Area I'd say Wiggy could make a point is even many of the Heat fans predicted Miami would lose at the same time he did last year.

Not really. It's Cleveland.
Interesting. we've won the lottery and found elite superstars. We've also won it and found garbage. We've had miserable lottery luck, but still managed to pick quality players.

Not sure "it's Cleveland" applies here.....unless to say no clue what will happen for them.

The Cavaliers have the most No. 1 picks in the history of the NBA. How exactly have they had miserable luck? There are 6 teams that have never had a No. 1 pick.
