Sorrry but I'm immune to your biased math. Again, let's put the Heat in the Western Conference. Let's put also put them in the Southwest division which would mean they are guaranteed to play the Mavs, Hornets, Grizzlies, Spurs, and Rockets. That means they play each of those teams 4 times a season. It also means that they play teams like the Lakers, Clippers, Warriors, Nuggets, and Thunder 3 or 4 times a season too. I'm sorry but I don't see this overrated Superfriends team having a 21 game winning streak in a conference that has those teams. The Heat also play in the Southeast division which is one of the tiest divisions in American sports. Bobcats, Magic, Wizards, and Hawks as division rivals? Give me a in' break.
It. Won't. Matter.
how the is my math biased? They play every team in the West twice right now. It's not like they get to avoid playing any of the teams you mentioned.
You're kidding yourself if you think any team can stop both Lebron & Wade in the post season. Now that Wade is healthy, this year could be a cakewalk.
Since they played in the Eastern Conference and in a D-League level division, their record is inflated with gimme wins. There's no sense arguing with you because you are too hardcore on this. I am just saying that they benefit from playing a ty conference and a joke division. They get more games against Eastern Conference teams than the teams in the Western Conference do. They get gimme games and gift games. This is a huge flaw in the NBA. Stern and his minions know it but they don't give a since Superfriends gives him a big bonus at the end of the year. The NBA has the least amount of parity of all sports in America (sorry Stephen A. Smith but you're a in' idiot). I can't believe that guy said that the NBA has more parity than the NHL. A team from North Carolina has won the Stanley Cup. The Bobcats haven't even won a in' playoff game in their history.
Do you have dementia? Their record against the West is better than their record against the east. Nothing you said explains why that's biased. This is why you can't get a better job, even the most basic analytical concepts fly way over your head.
Give me your job since you're obviously so much better than me. I will gladly swap jobs with you. You can come to my job and work in retail and have your nights and weekends taken away from you, you will also get to be the only human in the building that will make a bale and knows the difference between their head and their ass, and you will make a whopping 16K a year. Sounds great, doesn't it?
My job requires basically understanding of mathematical and analytical concepts, something you wouldn't fare well at. By the end of your first week you'll start calling math the devil's work.
Those 5 West loses came from playing against Memphis, Clippers, Golden State, Utah and Portland.
Against the top 10 in the West they're basically .500 while on the road, and they only play there once a season.
Their numbers are great, and their dominance at home against the West is impressive, but you have to weigh the schedule in there to put those numbers in perspective.
Nah.... in between popping Xanax pills, he'd just ramble on about how math was invented by "the sexuals" he "doesn't care about," tbh....
Let me add that they do have some impressive wins in the West too, like against Denver on a back to back, an almost impossible mission.
They're the team to beat if you ask me. Terry is butthurt as .
I really don't care if those gots get to marry each other. I have nothing against those god forsaken sodomite gots
Kind of melting down here, brother.
Take a deep breath, Jacob.
maybe ainge brought terry in to strictly talk to lebron...
What do you mean weigh the schedule? They play every Western team once at home and once on the road.
Add god bless to that next time. He's a huge bible thumper and you'll reach him better with god mongering.
But that's the point. I'm sure that if they play OKC 4 times in a season they would beat them 4 times, but as Harlem said, there's teams that match up relatively better, like LA monkeyball or even Denver. The fact they only play against them twice in the season probably works better than if they had to face each 4 times.
Barely beating Memphis at home lets see how they do in the Grind houseMiami has beaten every top team in the West during this streak, other than Denver and San Antonio..the Heat would steamroll the West
So they go 2-2 against Denver instead of 1-1, 4-0 against OKC instead of 2-0, so in that sample they go 6-2 instead of 3-1.
You tell me if the combined win % against both teams changes at all.
The 4-0 OKC was a not so subtle jab
I'm not sure they go 4-0 against OKC. Also not sure they split with Denver. Golden state beat them in Miami. Spurs didn't even show up in Miami.
It's not a knock on your numbers, and the way they've been playing in this streak is impressive, but after watching the Pacers today, I have to say the top 3 in the West (when healthy) are considerably better. You have to wonder what the record would be if they had to play them much more, that's all.
Based off what we've seen their record would be roughly the same as it is now. I'm not seriously trying to say, "Their record would be even better since it's currently better against the West!" but more that there's no evidence they'd be noticeably worse in the West. Using the Pacers as an example is especially nonsensical since they're a particularly bad matchup for the Heat. If the Heat got to play the Pacers less it would be to their benefit.The 4-0 OKC was a not so subtle jab

That's because of the interior play, but that's where teams like maybe the Spurs and Memphis can work them, even the Clippers. Not saying it would be automatic or anything like that, but they all represent a bigger challenge matchup-wise.
It's all opinion obviously, and there's no way to prove it unless they end up facing one of them in the Finals.
If anyone wants to swap jobs with me for a week, sign me up. If you're gonna talk about me, my job, and my existence then at least back up your like a man.
And if you're gonna bash me when it comes to math, at least know your facts. I made A's and B's in Pre-Calculus and Calculus. I made a C in Statistics in college and a C in Psychological Statistics which was the hardest class I have ever taken in my life. Thank you.
Back to the Heat's overrated winning streak. The streak is inflated because the Heat play in an inferior conference and the fact that the NBA is dominated by jump shooters now.
