A long way from it.
But if this were to happen...
Who do we root for?

I'd root for the Heat...Just saying. The Heat are just a fad....In fact, if (though we're all hoping he doesnt)...it wouldnt surprise me if the Heat win the next 2 championships....LeBron opts out and returns to Cleveland.
Again..a lot of Ifs and a long time from time. Just saying.
The Heat added another shooter. The Celtics UPGRADED their backcourt. Heat will face Bradley and Terry now.
Spo still doesnt know how to run an offense.
It all comes down to LeBron. If he's nailing back breaking 3's, dominating the glass and in the post, defending (mugging) and the refs calling tick tack touch fouls to allow him to shoot FT's (Actually thats more so Wade...LeBron is kinda like Shaq..I see when he shoots FTs when he shouldnt and when he's fouled and they dont call it)
Lets be real. THE ONLY REASON the Heat arent back to back champions right now..Is cause LeBron disappeared for whatever reason against the Mavs. If he was 75% of his normal self they win that series easily. (LeBron blew the end of game 2, then he flat out disappeared the last 4 games....the Heat lead going into 4th each game until game 6)
So it was really all about LeBron's mentality to begin with. Hoping he turns into a loss child on the court, or becomes a fat rat thats happy he's got his 1 championship and never plays with urgency. Gets back to dancing and crap.
We enhanced our team and our chances. But as long as LeBron is playing for the Heat, hitting late 3's, playing in the post, attacking the basket, getting help from the Refs....It was the Heat's lose in the East WITH OR WITHOUT RAY.
I still like our chances. I like our coach over their coach. I dont trust Wade's health, although Allen can spot him so mins, I like KG's intensity over anybody on the Heat and how he can take Bosh out of his game. I like how Terry antagonized LeBron as he was melting in the Finals against the Mavs. I like Paul Pierce's ability to nail a big shot in LeBron's face. I love Rondo's IDGAF attitude. So I still like our chances.
NOw is the time for Doc to figure out his adjust his defense...to TAKE LEBRON OUT. Call Thibs on the phone (if the Bulls are defeated) and get the game plan on how to slow down LeBron.
