These things you speak of are a means to the end. Nothing more. They'd insure home court. That can't be discounted as we saw this past June. But, that's all it's good for. If you can't win the last game played in June, you're white bread.

Link is to site that compares Heat/Lakers progressive records to the 72 win Bulls. I don't have a link from 2008-09 when they did this before, however back then they started with:
Celtics/Lakers/Bulls
Lakers slipped and it became
Celtics/Cavs/Bulls.
Then the Celtics fell back and it was listed as
Cavs/Lakers/Bulls.
I do believe that both the Spurs and the Hornets currently have better records than either the Lakers or the Heat. I don't think any team will get 72 wins this year, but I'm just saying. If the Spurs and Hornets keep ahead of either the Lakers or the Heat, will they eventually take either's place? Bookmark the site, check it down the line.....

Completely agree with you, but I think you're missing the point the OP is trying to get across. They're comparing the records of the Heat/Lakers to the 72 win Bulls, and there are teams ahead of them on the scoreboard. I actually agree.
Stern was pimping the Hornets on Colbert.
I find the fact that the Miami Heat have their very own "Heat Index" featured on espn's NBA section to be laughably obnoxious. The level of tackiness is inversely proportional to their winning percentage.
Proven recent champions like the Lakers/Celtics deserve their own "index" more than the Miami Heat.
Wow..just now saw that. It's things like this that make me root against them.
I know, it's sickening.

Pages and page and pages of analysis after every god damned game.
An entire article devoted to discussing Chris Bosh's "breakout" game with - hold on - 35 massive points on 11-17 shooting. I mean god damn we were truly witnessing a living legend that night.
Teams the Heat have beaten - Philly, Orlando, New Jersey x 2, Minnesota, Toronto, Phoenix, and Charlotte. Yeah..they're world beaters. I know the Spurs haven't exactly beaten the best teams in the league either, but we're 11-1, and WAY under the radar.
don't forget Bosh's 6 PHENOMENAL rebounds.
Your an idiot
ESPN is not showing love to any teams except the heat. Haven't you already gotten that?
Looking at the Heat schedule, they may be eliminated from getting 72 wins before 2010 is over. If that's the case and the Spurs and Hornets are still up there, will they make the list by then? ESPN will be in a quandary.
People who don't know the difference between "your" and "you're" shouldn't call others idiots.
Even if the Spurs or Hornets have homecourt over the Lakers, the two-time defending champs will still be the favorites in a 7-game series.
which is perfectly fine. the Lakers have earned that right to be the favorite ... the Miami Heat have done absolutely nothing to earn the favoritism they are receiving and that's the issue.
first off, learn some grammar...You're an idiot...not your...second off, what in my statement makes me an idiot? The fact of who Miami's beaten? Or the fact that for an 11-1 team, the Spurs are flying under the radar? Or maybe when I said the Spurs haven't exactly beaten the best teams either? Hmm...
The Spurs were plastered to the wall in May and won some meaningless games in November.
Why should we be taking them seriously? Give me one good reason.
Because they have Tiago Splitter, Blair has lost alot of weight, and is playing much better from last season.
