Re: 1/10-1/16 Games Discussion Thread

True. But they got two 'Top-5' players on their team. Which means, if they are in the game they got a chance of beating anybody in the league. I think the depth only comes into play if one of those guys goes down. If that happens, then they'll be in trouble. BUT if James and Wade stay healthy they got a shot at winning it all.

I get what you're saying here, but playoff basketball is way different than regular season ball. I know that argument is annoying and overused but it still holds weight. They need guys to step up that isn't LeBron, Wade or Bosh. This is what's kind of funny about they're reasons for teaming up, so they don't have to feel they have to carry the load themselves, they don't have to always been on and can have an off night, yet...they all HAVE to be on. If they're depending on Bosh, Wade and Bron to combine for near 100 points every game of the playoffs especially a series in late May and June after the grind of the postseason and regular season, then they're in trouble.

Well, it's not like they need another all-star in the mix. And I understand what your saying about someone 'stepping up' besides the big three. BUT when I think of someone 'stepping up', I think of someone who'll fill in for a short period while one of the big three takes a breather. He doesn't have to score 20 points, or grab 20 rebounds, or dish 20 assists. BUT just hold down the fort for a few minutes while one of them takes a breather. The one important thing that is required by the others is to play solid defense, which they have been doing. The rest of the team has to get a mindset that the number one priority they have on the court is defense. Don't worry about scoring because that's being handled by the big three. Their scoring will come to them. Once defenses start concentrating on the big three then the big men just need to be ready to get that ball in the paint and throw it down. And the shooters need to stand out on the perimeter and be ready to catch-and-shoot when the ball comes to them.

Bah, Atlanta must be paralyzed with the game being ppd till March 15th.

No transportation, the Bucks have been there since yesterday, but yet the Bucks can get a bus to the airport and leave on a plane.

nah, they need more than that. relying on only 3 people to score is not going to fly against boston when they have Pierce, Allen, KG, Rondo and big baby to score. and even on some nights Nate, Wafer, and Shaq, can give you at least 10-12 points.

even Orlando can get double digits from 7 different players.

You can really tell John Wall been working on his jumper..form is ugly as hell but he's starting to make more of them

Re: 1/10-1/16 Games Discussion Thread

^^I was about to say... His J looks good tonight but he still has no elevation on it. I guess someone as quick as him can create enough space that he doesn't need to out jump the defender.
