Solid do you have a list on the Heat?
No, sorry. I guess you could research it on the Information Superhighway.

tlongII... CosmicCowboy... SpursWoman... GrandeDavid... IceColdBrewski... samikeyp...Have been posting for years...(Sorry for missing other names)...
"Hey, how come Miami doesn't have anyone named "Chad"?
A Mavs fan supporting the Heat, talk about lack of Finals experience!
mouse got served![]()
Ok brah
Mouse, just for you, even though you should probably stay away from anything called "Heat" after the experience you had this week:
Not fully researched but a good first pass for the Heat Finals experience:
Players
Shaquille O'Neal (6th trip)
Steve Smith (2nd trip)
Shandon Anderson (2nd trip)
Staff
Bob McAdoo (5th trip, 1st as coach, 4 as Laker player)
Ron Culp, trainer (2nd trip at least)
hmmm I have been a fan for years, hubby even longer . If you mean first time on the board- then yes.

I think that's it as far as players go. I thought maybe Eddie Jones, but he only was in LA until 1999.
I'm surprized that Mouse hasn't hedged his bet with a Pistons iden y. One thing for sure - no way the heat win their series now, mouse is on board.
Hahahaha...gotta love mouse's jinxes eh?
Notice that the players with Finals experience are all starters except for Robert Horry, who closes-out every game for the Spurs. The only coach without experience in the Finals is Don Newman.
The Pistons obviously have recent Finals experience.
The Heat only has 1 player in the normal rotation with Finals experience. Shaq. Shandon Anderson last went to the Finals in 97 with Utah and Steve Smith last went in 03 with the Spurs.
Their trainer and Bob McAdoo are the only coaching staff members with Finals experience (although Riley in the FO has plenty).
