Miami Heat vs. Brooklyn Nets Playoff Series Thread


Recommended Posts

The Miami Heat led by LeBron James will face the Brooklyn Nets led by former celtics rival Paul Pierce. I expect a tough series with a lot of animosity but I just don't think Miami will lose to the Nets who could barely escape the raptors, a team Miami probably would've swept or taken in 5.

Starters

Heat:

Mario Chalmers

Dwyane Wade

LeBron James

Shane Battier

Chris Bosh

Nets:

Deron Williams

Shaun Livingston

Joe Johnson

Paul Pierce

Kevin Garnett

With them barely escaping toronto, i really think brooklyn would be lucky to see a game 6

 

Well seeing as how Toronto was a better team, we didn't escape them. We survived and kept fighting.

 

We play the Heat very well. Lots of teams do (except for one team I know of), because they play up because they're playing the champs. We swept them 4-0 in the regular season. But without home court, it'll be very hard.

 

The week-long rest for the Heat should be interesting. Rest your bones, yes. Get out of your zone? Perhaps.

Toronto wasn't a better team. Lol. The Nets have all veterans with playoff experience they were the heavy favorites in that series.

Sure they were. Better record, better seed, home court advantage, split the season series. Big deal, we have a bunch of old men playing for us. Why does that mean we're better?

I'm looking forward to this series.  Pierce and Garnett always bring the blood and guts for Lebron. 

 

I want the Heat to win though.  Would be exciting to see a Wizards v. Heat ECF.  

 

Heat in 6.

    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
    • Very true on the length but stuff like this is never where we shine. We aren’t a good team at drafting.
