Spoelstra VS Thibodeau now pg 2 Ohioians vs Bandwagoners

Tom Thibodeau is the X factor and difference maker of the series of the bulls vs heat. Bulls will win cause of their coach and heat will lose because of their coach. Spoelstra is the doug collins of the bulls in the 80's/90's before they became a dynasty.

Yes they got this far due to the talent of the big 3 but their talent won't get them past this premier coach who has this team playing at the level they are in all phases of the game.

In fairness to Spoelstra, those nimrods cant be easy to coach. Imagine you and your staff is trying to call some plays during a timeout and your team leader is doing this:

those were the fun days for lebron. now it's all about pretending to have your serious face on. You know he's dying to break it down but Wade wouldn't laugh with him. Bosh would break out doing the raptor dance and it wouldn't lower lebrons street kred.

What exactly is/was the Heat's gameplan? They look like an "and 1" team out there, getting out rebounded and out smarted.

The Heat will lose because they are playing the best defensive team in the league and they have absolutely no bench while Chicago is perfectly happy playing their second team for extended minutes. Wade and Lebron are still human and will wear out.

They will lose because a team of individuals will never beat a team (in the true sense of the word).

People are looking way too into Miami losing game 1. You all remember that Chicago lost game 1 against Atlanta right??? Miami still stands a very good chance to win this series

Thibs has brought the team a long way from where Del Negro had it. Very excited about the win last night but this one is far from over...even with Spoelstra coaching.
Posted on 5/16/11 at 10:40 am to Chad504boy
Thibs is the best coach in the L, Rose is the best player in the L, and the Bulls are the best team in the L.

Miami also got blown out in their first playoff game in Boston. Didn't really seem to phase them

I think Thibodeau would get so much more out of miami's team outside the big 3 and even from the big 3 than what spoelstra does and that in and of itself would be enough to be the deciding factor.

The only thing that blew my mind was Spo had Chalmers guarding Rose during crunch time in the 4th quarter. That doesn't make sense. They should just have Wade guard Rose the whole time. I guess they could have James guard him, but they need him to help guard some of the Bulls big men.
Also Miller, Chalmers, and Jones need to be hitting 3s to open up the lane for James and Wade. The only reason those guys are on the team is for that reason.
If Spo and the role players don't get their shite straight the Bulls will easily win this series.

Dont forget, at the end of the 3rd quarter Wade walked to the bench like he could barely stand up due to tiredness. He sat out the early 4th quarter.

James had a hard enough time with Deng. Deng pretty much owned him on both ends last night.

I didn't watch the game, but if that did happen it'll surely flip in the next game. Lebron almost always destroys Deng.

Lebron was guarding the big men when they went small. Also they asked Deng about his defensive performance and he said he got lucky that Lebron just missed shots he usually makes.
The Heat have to spread the floor with 3pt shooting. Spo has to not create stupid mismatches. The big 3 have to shoot well.
I am most confident the big 3 will shoot well overall for the series.

The Heat will still win this series IMO, but the bulls have a tremendous coaching advantage. In all 4 games played between the two teams the Bulls kicked the shite out of the heat in the third quarter after making halftime adjustments. Bulls are a tough match up for this Heat team.....but Wade and Lebron won't be cold forever.
