I was shocked the Knicks blew out the Heat with Melo out. Happy, but shocked.

Im not shocked. The Heat have looked pretty bad. Losing to the Wizards and having close wins to teams like the Cavs. Theyre gonna get every teams best shot and it looks like they arent up to it yet and hopefully will never be.

I mean they almost lost to the damn spurs without their 4 best players. I hope they spiral out of control and lose like 10 straight.

I think mentally they are back to where they were year 1 together. They think that after winning 1 it will just be an easy ride to the second.

I haven't watched the heat much. Lebron seems to be as good as ever. Is the rest of the team just playing poorly?

Wade is shitting the bed and Bosh is a joke of a center. If the Lakers can ever pull it together, they have a good shot at beating the Heat in the finals. I don't see how Miami can matchup with a front court of Gasol and Howard.

Just play HackaHoward and hope Gasol's pillow softness comes out as usual.

LA better figure this out sooner than later. Kobe will start getting huffy and a total team meltdown could result.

They are playing without their pg and their back up pg in a completely new system. I'll give it a little more time.

But they do have 3 top 15 players that are actually playing. They shouldn't be losing thi many games. No excuse.

Sleeper is right. Wade has been terrible and bosh is almost as soft as Gasol

Love the Wade bashing, hate everything about his game. One of my least favorite players to watch.

Interested in thoughts. Can Jrue Holiday become one of the elite, elite PG's in the NBA? I never thought he'd become a franchise PG but he's really balling this year.

The Holiday, Young and Turner trio has been better than I expected...

Yeah....Turner was smooth clinching that win.

Rondo couldn't hit the shot.....Pierce is the go to guy there.

Jeff Van Gundy thinks that they should just award a point when a T is called...


Not sure how I feel about that.

I feel better about that than the foul they just called on Durant against Kobe.

Lol at his flu-like symptoms that include a raspy voice. SMH
