Re: Miami's road to the Finals: Charlotte, Toronto and Washington/Atlanta
Pacers, Nets, and Knicks fault. They were suppose to be good this year. De throne the Heat they said.

Re: Miami's road to the Finals: Charlotte, Toronto and Washington/Atlanta
Don't blame the Heat. The Pacers, Nets, and Knicks just choked away their chances.

Yikes, that's actually a little unsettling seeing it laid out in front of me. That is a strange conference right now.

Re: Miami's road to the Finals: Charlotte, Toronto and Washington/Atlanta
Nets, Knicks, Pacers and the Bulls were supposed to all be great or very good this year but they either had injuries, collapsed or just underachieved. Why are people still crying over this shit, we know the east is garbage, don't need 5 different threads a day about it.

The Hawks are sneaky good. They have the ability to hang with any team due to their play style.

Yeah, just like OKC and Spurs were supposed to sweep Celtics/Heat in the finals in 2012.
Overrated west teams getting overrated................ again.

You know the Wizards wouldn't have even made the playoffs if they were in the west, right? Not even close as a matter of fact.

wizards record vs. western conference opponents in 2014: 11-19

Re: Miami's road to the Finals: Charlotte, Toronto and Washington/Atlanta
Hawks getting overrated because the horrific Pacers are making them look like basketball gods. They would get destroyed by any western conference team, including the 6-8 seeds. As would the wiz.
Just look at all the trouble the Mavs and grizzlies have given okc and the spurs. And these are teams with serious playoff experience. Wiz and Raptors wouldn't weather the adversity. Hawks would get embarrassed. Every team in the west is -from top to bottom- better than every team in the east except miami.

Re: Miami's road to the Finals: Charlotte, Toronto and Washington/Atlanta
Why are idiots acting like the Raptors and Wizards are still garbage? :facepalm
Have you guys even been watching the NBA this year? Tornto had the 3rd best record in the East since January 1st, better than the Heat! The Wizards are no joke either. Young up and coming team that can shoot the lights out from 3, and punish you inside with Nene and Gortat! Wiz are the team of the future, we are truly witnessing a changing of the guard in the NBA.
-
Re: Miami's road to the Finals: Charlotte, Toronto and Washington/Atlanta
So who are we blaming for this? The Heat, I'm guessing?
They're responsible for making all the good teams win as well, so it's harder for them.
And people acting like Toronto and Wizards are trash teams? Toronto are a 55 win team since getting rid of Rudy Gay. Washington most likely finish with 50-55 wins too if it wasn't for injuries all season long.
People harp on about Memphis being so much better than their record. Well so are the Wizards, Toronto and Brooklyn.

They're not garbage. They're just not playoff teams if you put them in the west.
Facts are facts :confusedshrug:

Re: Miami's road to the Finals: Charlotte, Toronto and Washington/Atlanta
Those teams are better than you think
Remember when people thought the Pacers were not good competition for the Heat in 2012. However realized how wrong they were after it went 7.
Well I seriously believe Toronto and Washington are on that level if not better, this Miami team is a lot worse than their past Championship teams as well..

Have you watched any western conference playoff games? The playoffs are totally different from the regular season. The wiz might be the future, but right now they are an untested, inexperienced team that could barely stay above .500 for most of the year. In the east. They would fold under the pressure against any western conference team given the talent and experience that even the 7th and 8th seeds have.

Not comparing them to the West but don't you think it is impressive that they went into a place like Chicago and won 3 straight. The Bulls were heavy favorites if I remember correctly yet the Wiz dispatched them quickly.
Honestly just seems like people can't appreciate Eastern Conference style basketball. The Wiz/Bulls series was actually more competitive than it looked by results.

This. Any team that can win 3 straight playoff games in Chicago is not to be taken lightly. I think they would give Miami a very good fight. I believe the Wiz were a top 5 three point shooting team this year, and the Heat happen to suck at defending the 3 so anything could happen. :confusedshrug:

But they always seem to come to life when they play the Heat. The Pacers can't be counted out until they are actually eliminated.

Bulls choked against the Wizards. Nene owned Joakim Noah the reigning defensive player of the year in the first round of the playoffs.
