Take Howard out of the Heat and their average age is still over two years higher than the Spurs.

I agree. They are too old and weak for El Heat and will be fortunate to avoid a sweep
The Spurs have been disrespected this entire post-season...

First the Warriors were supposed to beat them in 6...

Then the Grizz were supposed to beat them in 5...


Now people think the Heat will win in 4...

Just my opinion but the Heat match up with the Spurs much better then they did with Indiana. This year's Spurs are Tony Parker's team and they run a hell of a lot more then those Spur teams of old did. Just my opinion, but you are not going to beat the Miami Heat playing like that. However, the Spurs do still have Tim Duncan and another 7 footer.....coach Pop just watched how much trouble Indiana gave them and I do think the Spurs are going to make it a close series. I think the Heat in 6 or 7. Lebron will dominate no matter who guards him.

I don't think a team in the NBA matches up more favorably with the Heat than the Pacers. It is a match up nightmare for Miami

Tony Parker is about to shread the Heat

They dont have anybody to stay in front of him for the 40 minutes he'll be on the floor, and no real rim protector... Lebron cant guard him all series.

They'll also have major problems with Tim down low... Hibbert tore them up, and Duncan is just a tad better than Roy

it'll be another 6/7 game series, but I thinkt he Spurs take this one... Too many matchup problems for EL HEAT

I truly believe Miami needs to add a couple of pieces if they want to get through Indiana next season. With Granger back and and Hibbert and George getting another year of experience.....this same Heat team might not get through them.

Spurs struggle with athletic teams. See OKC. Heat are not quite as athletic as OKC, but its close. Plus Heat have home-court.

Duncan is obviously a better offensive player than Hibbert, but it won't be as bad of mismatch as they have guys who can match up with Duncan, and he likely won't completely own the offensive boards like Hibbert did.

Cole is a really good defender, and Chalmers isn't terrible either.

Duncan isn't the same imposing physical force that Hibbert is. Bosh, Haslem, etc won't be nearly as overmatched physically. Hibbert has 3 inches and over 30 pounds on Duncan. That size makes a huge difference

Bosh is going to thrive in this series.

If there is any team in this league that doesn't give a shite in a hostile environment, it's these spurs.

Silenced Roaracle.

Ground the Grindhouse to a halt.

Helped shut down staples.

Every series win, in fact, for San Antonio has come on the road. They won't be fazed in the least by AA Arena.

Tony will get his. He's playing so well and he looks quick as shite. I think Cole will get more PT in this series to try to slow parker down. Chalmers can't handle parker IMO

always amusing listening to the home court deniers when statistically that has proven to be an advantage time and time again.
