 Heat in 7 games here. Who wins, and in what game will check back to see who is write and who goes to the hall of shame. Also a brief description of what will be the difference is kosher.

 My take, in the end the best player in the world, by far, in his absolute prime finds a way to beat a superior team.

Spurs in 6. The Spurs have some of the size and rebounding that the Pacers had BUT with better offense. Their best players have been there before and know how to get it done. And most of the time I don't like teams to have too much rest before going back into games but with the Spurs I think this will help them. It will also hurt the Heat that Wade can't get any rest for his injury's. They'll be a little worn out after 7 games with the Pacers and jumping into the mix three days later vs the Spurs. All the Spurs need to do is get one in Miami and I think it's over.

Spurs in 5. Wade/Bosh will be non-factors.

cHeat have looked very vulnerable.

Spurs in 5.

The Spurs ball movement is a thing of beauty.

I'll go Spurs in 6.

They are much more disciplined and well-drilled compared to Indiana.
Also, the Spurs' two best players fall at the Heat's biggest weaknesses - Point guard and big man.

I expect Parker to explode against the Heat given there will be no rim protection.

  • Yup
Spurs in 5

or Cavs in 7   ;D

one or the other, but certainly neither!

It would be good to see a good series.  Duncan & Co. getting back there is a great story...and the Heat are trying to establish themselves historically.

Spurs take one of two in Miami. The Heat win the next 3.

Heat in 5.

All the golden oldies on the Heat's roster (Allen, Battier, and Haslem) come up big in this series.

Nando De Colo drops a double-double during the Spurs only blowout win against the Heat.

Kawhi Leonard averages 10rbs per game in the series

T-Mac plays a total of 24 minutes and 31 second during the 5 game series.




Joey Crawford personally fouls out Tiago Splitter in game 5 and explains to coach Pop how to get to the Miami Heat Championship after party at LIV.

I'd say 5 but I can't see Miami only winning 1 game in a series.  I think the difference between Spurs playing the Heat this year and the C's playing them last year is that:
- the Spurs are much better coached
- their players have been through more playoff wars with much better results
- they have their strengths where the Heat are weakest -- PG and C -- that will make Miami pay for those advantages
- They have a couple of good young players that can play some decent D on Wade/Bron in Green and Leonard.

That may come to pass, however, in 1974 Kareem was the best in the world and in his prime, and it wasn't enough for his team to win the title.

For some reason I see the Heat winning in a sweep.
