2013 NBA Playoffs

Roy Hibbert is killing me, man.

He's 7-2, he should raise the ball up everytime he does a move in the paint to avoid that ball getting snatched.

Seeing David West and Hibbert doing work side by side in the paint is a thing of beauty.  Really wish the Celtics had guys who could do that.

Ray Allen giving Miami a major lift off the bench.

Guys like Ray, Mike Miller, Haslem, and Andersen are why the Heat are so dangerous in a Game 7 at home.  Those guys can just play off LeBron and get all kinds of energy from the crowd.  If those guys get going the Heat become unstoppable.

Sully is the next David West , watch.....

KG avereaged like 12 rpg in the playoffs

Add a good rebounding Jefferson or Millsap to that and now we're talking

Percetnages are crazy.

KG grabbed a lot of boards and a small / injured New York front line.  Even then he wasn't getting many points in the paint.  KG isn't much of a threat to score inside much anymore.

David West is a nice comparison to Sullinger, though I think David West has a much bigger wingspan which is part of why he plays so much bigger than he is.

Chris Bosh is such a terrific offensive rebounder. That wiry frame of his combined with quick feet and excellent mobility makes him so difficult for many opposing centers to box out. Forwards box him out much better than centers do.

It's a shame Bosh doesn't attack the offensive glass more often. Wasted talent.

horrible 3rd foul on Hibbert

he went straight up......

Bosh clearly has the talent to be a franchise player, he's just never had the stuff between the ears to really make the most of it.  Which is why he's content to play 3rd fiddle on this Heat team and have multiple chances at a ring that he'd never have gotten as a #1 or #2.

I would have loved to have seen what Phil Jackson could've done with Chris Bosh if that A.Bynum for Bosh had of gone through.

I think we would have seen a much better player than we've gotten with Spoelstra as Bosh's teacher. Bosh hasn't had a positive coaching relationship since Sam Mitchell left Toronto. It's a shame.

[Ogaju]

as expected the refs hand game to Miami

That awkward moment when you're getting outrebounded by the Heat.

Yeah.  Bosh has the tools to be on the same level that Pau Gasol was during those championship runs with the Lakers, but I think we're probably past the point where that can happen.  Pau is made out of tougher stuff, I think, for all of the criticism he's gotten for being "soft."  Pau is titanium compared to Bosh.

I still think the Spurs have a great chance to beat this Heat team.  They won't collapse under the weight of collective mental mistakes like this Pacers team.  They have the size to exploit the Heat inside and they have great penetrators in Parker and Ginobili, which is something the Pacers don't really have.

The Heat will have to step up their play in the Finals if they want to beat the Spurs.
