But there is nothing I hate more in sports than a fan base bragging about beating a team who are obviously missing a couple of their best players and that's what would happen if Cleveland plays Miami

Besides Wade not at 100% last night, who exactly was the Heat missing from this game that played for them in the 3/16/15 game?

3/16/15 game
G. Dragic- 40 minutes, 20 points
Deng- 37 minutes, 11 ponts
Whiteside- 32 minutes, 16 points
Wade- 31 minutes, 32 points
Chalmers- 29 minutes, 16 points
Walker- 24 minutes, 3 points
Haslem- 17 minutes, 0 points
Beasley- 16 minutes, 4 points
Andersen- 15 minutes, 4 points
Ennis- DNP
Napier- DNP
Johnson- DNP
Z. Dragic- DNP

4/2/15 game
G. Dragic- 33 minutes, 11 points
Deng- 36 minutes, 17 points

Wade- 13 minutes, 7 points
Chalmers- 26 minutes, 6 points
Walker- 17 minutes, 3 points

Clearly missed the point of my post. Who said I wanted to play Cleveland in the playoffs 2 weeks ago when I made this thread? The thread was strictly about the heat win in Miami on March 16th. I even stated in the thread that Cleveland would win in 5 or 6 games. As I said in another thread Miami only chance of getting out of round 1 without their 2nd best player & 6th man was to play Washington or Toronto. I don't even think they would beat Toronto with the current roster. Washington is the only team of the top 5 teams in the east that Miami can beat with our current roster

This would be a really good first round series if Bosh & Josh were able to come back this year. Without them Cavs probably would win in 5 or at most 6


Post #19 for the clowns who thought this thread I made 2 weeks ago meant I thought Miami could beat Cleveland in the playoffs with our 2nd best player & 6th man done for the year

I have no dog in this fight whatsoever, but all I see is a bunch of excuses

It's irrelevant because I never said a word about Miami beating Cleveland in a series. Miami is a shitty road team. I fully expected the heat to lose by a large margin.
That's a bull shit cop-out and you know it. I never said anything about a Cleveland/Miami series either. In post #313, you said this:
Bragging/taunting beating another team who are missing several players is lame.

Again, other than Wade not at 100% last night, who was missing from Miami that played in the 3/16/15 game? You started this thread, trolling Cleveland because Miami beat them. Now Cleveland returns the favor, yet you can't handle some trolling in return?

I don't have a dog in the fight either, I hate NBA basketball. I just love throwing shit back in people's faces when they initiate the trolling to begin with.

This thread was directed at one poster who's been picking @ wade and the heat team since last summer. Gordantrue was smart enough to know it was not directed at him.....I would hope you're just as smart

I don't think any heat fan care to play Cleveland considering all the injuries we have. You would have dumb Cleveland fans bragging about beating Miami who obviously won't be anywhere close to full strength until the season opener next year. I rat play the hawks and have them eliminate us in 5. Our only chance of getting out of the first round once bosh went down was to play Toronto or Washington and obviously that won't happen as those teams are basically locked in to the 4/5 seeds

Did you lose an avatar bet?

If Cleveland faces the Heat in round 1, the Cavs will win in 5 or fewer games. Bookmarket

So you'd really hate it if a fan base bragged about beating an injury prone team that plays like shit on the road?

I don't get it.

How can a fan of the Heat, who was 13 games behind the Cavaliers at the time this thread was created, make a troll post calling out a Cavalier fan?

I don't get it.

What's funny is that Miami has only won 2 more games at home than they have on the road. But clearly they are a better team at home than on the road.

Now, I'm not a basketball fan, but from what you're telling me it seems the Heat are a shitty road team and a shitty home team. Why not cut out the extra words and just call them a shitty team?

I agree.
All season I wanted to play the Cavs, but now I'd rather lose to basically any other team then them.

As far as the injury thing. We've been hit hard all season. No excuse. It happens, but it certainly makes a difference. The day we got Dragic, our projected starting 5 looked as good or better then ANY team in the EC.
That lasted a total of zero games played.

The Heat played over their heads in the 2 home wins.
Its hard to bring that energy and confidence/belief on the road.
Especially when the opponent is gunning for you like it is their game 7.

Maybe for this year we should rename ourselves the Everything About The City Of Cleveland Heat?
Everyone then would just know we were shitty.
