I think one of MIA's biggest problems is PG play(and their bigs)

Chalmers/Cole have been abysmal on both sides.

Imagine a lowry type instead of them.

The lack of a bruiser is showing too

Inability to defend the paint is the bigger one. They just got away with it last year..by a whisker.

LeBron swiping away other teammates lapses, and occasional non-true Center Bosh blocks..does not a paint area/interior Defense make.

Getting crushed by bigger, deeper, more focused, and just plain better team.

Yes, Chalmers/Cole are being abused, but they've been hit-miss all along, just now with D Wade no longer his former consistently dominant self, does it glare so much more.

They make splitter look like an all star. They brought in oden for this and it failed since he doesn't even play. They have NO one to bang with Duncan and him. Series is over. Lebron will be leaving. Wade IMO is not very good. His shite selection is really bad and doesn't look like he cares. Lebron needs a more complete team around him. This big 3 shite is over.

Spurs are playing better, but Miami's defense is just playing horrible. Add in Wade not playing as well and it spells bad news. I think everyone's #s across the board are lower except LeBron's

Wade from 2013 Finals:
47.6/0.0/77.3
19.6ppg
4.0rpg
4.6apg
1.9spg
1.3bpg
2.3tov

Wade from 2014 Finals:
46.2/25.0/72.3
16.3ppg
4.0rpg
3.0apg
2.0spg
0.0bpg
3.8tov

At what point do we say Lebron shouldn't have to need a team full of all stars around him to win?

That's why they are the big 3 and not the big 5. Their other positions are lacking. They really don't have a true center and their PGs are a joke

When the league is no longer loaded with superstars.

How much fricking help does he need? Might as well get Chris Paul to South Beach too so he can get some more help.

They can't afford these type of things.

This is what makes the Spurs run of like 20 years of success so damn impressive.

In 4 years the Heat got older, lost players, and couldn't fill in the gaps.

This. For all that everyone praises Pat Riley, people should be talking more about RC Buford and the job hes done with the Spurs.

Miami's biggest problem is the Spurs.

the other 4 starters had 28 points last night, so to answer your question: more than 28 points.

The notion he is playing with a bunch of superstars is outdated.

-Wade's legs allow him to play well 1 out of every 5 games.
-Bosh is in the wrong system and completely disappears most nights.
-Their PG production is so bad it hurts to watch
-They have no big, strong bodies that will be a force in the lane. Birdman isn't bad, but plays limited minutes and lacks skill.


Boris Diaw should be MVP. That guy is a Heat killer.

Bosh's clutch genes are the reason why this isn't a sweep. He saved them with the 3 and nice passing in game 2

Thus far in this series, there is not a single All-Star on the Heat roster other than James.

In this series, if you ranked the best players to date, LeBron would be the only Heat player in the top 8.

Well yea no doubt about that.

They are dead last in the NBA in rebounding. And have no PG.

Im not a Heat fan at all, but I do feel bad for LBJ. Just because he has to lead his team in ppg, rebs, assists, steals and guard the other teams best player just to give them a chance to win. I mean thats why he left Cleveland... he wanted some help and didnt want to have to do everything. And he still does.

They should have went out and got a guy like Reggie Evans to rebound and a guy like DJ Augustin to play PG. Thats all they really need. Someone that can pass and handle the ball and someone that can clean up on the boards. But they dont.

I dont get why Birdman doesnt play more...
