2013-2014 NBA Season

[Keith-N-Jax]

If they continue play like this 2 TOs followed by a shot clock violation, then 2 more TOs which allowed Houston to tie and then take the lead, they'll be out the first round.

They'll be fine. As long as Wade stays healthy, I fully expect them to make it back to the Finals again.

Gonna be funny when Charlotte takes Miami to seven games in the first round.

[thelakelander]

That would be since the Indiana series won't make it to a game 7, assuming the Pacers get past Brooklyn or Chicago.

[thelakelander]

Of course I'm a biased Heat fan but that was the most horribly officiated game I've seen in a while.  Instead of losing by 1, I rather see them get blown out by 20 then see Indy given a 3 on a West travel and Miami lose a Wade 3 off a bad call. 6 point swing, which is essentially the game in a low scoring slugfest. With that said, Indy doesn't scare me as much as they did early in the season.  I rather the Heat play them than Brooklyn.

[Keith-N-Jax]

Hey Lake Indy should scare us, Miami has not been playing well at home or on the road. I dont see them going past the 2nd roumd. Hope I am wrong.

[thelakelander]

^Indy has been playing just as bad.  If they face each other, I believe Miami can match Indy's defensive intensity but Indy can't match Miami offensively. Brooklyn, on the other hand, matches up pretty well.  By the same token, Chicago matches up against Indy pretty well.  Overall, a Heat/Indy ECF is not a given.

[Keith-N-Jax]

^^ True, should be interesting. Heat 0-3 vs Brooklyn I think.

[thelakelander]

Yes, they loss two games by 1 point and another in double OT on a night Wade took off and Lebron fouled out.

Brooklyn would be a really interesting matchup.

Would love to see the ghosts of Celtics past have one more run.

Would also LOVE to see a Heat/Spurs rematch in the finals.

The Spurs are very quietly on a 15-game win streak and have been able to get some good rest for their veterans throughout the season.

Can never sleep on Pop and the boys.

[thelakelander]

I'm hoping OKC or the Clippers take out the Spurs. Those old guys are scary. I'll take a Heat verses OKC any day over dealing with San Antonio in a 7 game series.

After football won me over back in 2010, Ive tried my hardest to get interested in basketball and it just does not work. They play too many games, and everything moves to fast. LOL Im going to try again this season to become a fan

I've been a big sports guy my whole life.  I can watch and follow just about any sport.

Except for golf and baseball=ugh,

[thelakelander]

I don't really watch golf and baseball, but I can if there's nothing else on. I used to watch baseball almost every night.  However, being a Marlins fan, that got old after seeing my favorite teams gutted every couple of years into a modern day version of the Bad News Bears overnight.
