the main key factor here is ADREW BYNUM AND ROY HIBBERT PROTECTING THE RIM, and the rebounding key players of d-west and stephenson
miami heat lebron's 40+ points and d-wade 30+ points and bosh rebounding ability
brooklyn's playmaker d-will and scorer of pierce johnson, and rebounding defender kg,
if brooklyn nets cannot protect the rim on lebron and d-wade and/or heat missing some shots, bigman of nets should work, but plumlee and kg are not enough
nets vs. pacers, without brook lopez, bynum and hibbert are both enough,
Ok, i have seen you write about the Nets in several threads recently even if its completely off topic. Have you watched them play since Jan 1st? Because it sounds like you watched them play the Pacers twice in November, got blown out and have written them off. They are playing GREAT ball, small albeit, but they long at every position and are a good defensive team loaded with offensive weapons. If Dwill puts his big boy pants on they will not be pushed over and will give Indy a run for their money.
They probably are shot an elite rim protector, but surely you wouldn't doubt KG in the playoffs to make it count and Plumlee is a very good backup rim protector.
