They're just coasting in the mid season... they'll be fine
The Heat are vulnerable inside, and thus will catch some loses to teams with the ability to exploit that vulnerability.
But when push comes to shove, I'll take Lebron and D.Wade taking your team out in a best of 7 series.
Next.
They are a team with a couple of glaring flaws(no size & sucky PGs) and are coasting on top of it. Not a good combination.
The Pacers will be another team that has swept Miami in the regular season but will lose to them in 5 in the playoffs :oldlol:. Nothing to see here folks.
They will be fine come playoff time and i hate the heat with a passion. That is nothing OP.
Nothing, really. They are just cruising through the regular season.

Lebron tricked Riley into thinking he could play PF...instead Battier is doing it.
They suck at rebounding
I watched my team coast through the 2010 regular season and then "turn it on" in the playoffs.
What the Heat are doing right now...isn't that.

Haslem is the PF now and has been for a while. Try to keep up.

They are probably tired, they have to give the day off to some players.

Their bench players were much more consistent last regular season. Not so much this time around. Coupled with Wade's relative inconsistency (also more pronounced this year compared to last) and Lebron is shouldering a lot more of the load over what feels like about the same kind of minutes.
They're still the odds-on favorite, no doubt...but they're not coasting right now. Some of their guys just aren't playing well.
Even with Miami's struggles they still have what the 3rd or 4th best record? they are coasting at times but are still come end of the season have a top 3 seed most likely. They have sucked bad on the road but you know come playoff time winning on the road won't be an issue for them.
