This is crazy. Miami will now have 9 days off...at least!

Are they really this good? Or is it that they haven't really had much competition these first two rounds? Wiz are a young team after all.

It's amazing, you have Shaq playing injured in the first round, Shaq missing TWO games in the second round, yet here they are, undefeated in the postseason. I'd like to see how they hold up once they get some serious competition from Indy/Pistons.

There is no other team in the NBA who I would hate to see win the championship more than the Heat.
Horry For 3!

Yeah they did and I already knew they were. I predicted Heat would sweep the first and second rounds.

no, Nets played like a #16 seed and the Wizards...well could of made the Hawks look good


That's the thing though. Nets played like crap--with Jason Kidd and Vince Carter having shooting at horrible FG%. Against the Wiz, their trio of Arenas, Hughes, Jaimson didn't have much success either. Is it their Defense or just that the opposing players choked under pressure.

It just seems that aside from that ONE game in round 1 against the Nets that went to OT, Heat have been simply cruising through the playoffs.

The Wiz did not play decent defense, and their offense heaved up bad 3-point shots under pressure.

Botttom line Wizards,Nets,Celtics wouldv'e wilted just as quickly in the Western Conference brackets.

Why does the media hype the Heat as some unstoppable juggernaut???

I mean it was the Nets and the Wizards

reality check:

The Nets were 8th seen in the fucking EC, which is just horrible. VC was their entire offense.

The Wizards don't play defense. Over the season, Wiz PPG diff was NEGATIVE! Their offense is dribble, shoot a 3. Etan Thomas was hurt (yeah, I know, not a big loss).

Heat had the 2 weakest teams in the playoffs. 8-0 is meaningless against such weak competition.

The Spurs would have not gone 8-0 against the same competition because the Spurs pull playoff shit like miss 17 straight FGs in 4th qtrs, and shoot under 60% FTs to give games away. Heat don't have those playoff problems. The Heat are tougher mentally than the Spurs, but the Spurs are still the better team.

I agree with that totally...even with Memphis and Sacto in it
