    OK, Everyone believes that the Spurs' chances of facing Miami in the finals are huge.

    So let's say Miami VS Spurs in the finals...

    I truly thought the Spurs were a lock to win it all, but since Alonzo is going to join the Heat, we could be in deep .

    Covering Shaq and Mourning will be hard as , I mean, shaq needs to be controlled, and if the Spurs interior defense is too focused in on that, they still have mourning. If they both played at the same time...

    I think the best way to stop Shaq is by taking him out of the game by drawing fouls, because then he has to sit the bench.

    Duncan + Rasho vs. Shaq + Mourning
    Which force will be more dominant?

    You're worried about Mourning? Why?

    He probably won't even be there. No offense to his ailment.

    I wouldn't worry about Mourning. I'm not. He's not the same player he was. Anything can happen but just because he signed with the Heat doesn't 'scare' me.

    BRING IT ON ES!

    Mourning and shaq are both a physical presence, and if they are both on the court together...think about the rebounds they'll get.

    I just hope Rasho's soft pussy is able to handle Shaq and Mourning. That's all.

    Don't count on Mourning playing in the finals. Or even in the playoffs for that matter. If he makes 15 appearances for the Heat, he'll be doing good.

    Fine Spurs counter with Rose + Duncan more.
    Rose can rebound with Mourning all day that is why I would keep him around.


    Second, Heat not a lock for finals. I am still sticking with Pistons. Wallace x 2 etc. can handle that front line and they can also shut down Wade when motivated.

    Also the confounder if Artest back Pacers could be in mix. Relax even if they make Finals and Spurs get there Spurs still a deep and powerful team.

    If Alonzo is healthy, the whole NBA better lookout, because the paint will be shutdown with Mourning and Shaq in it.

    Rummpd I agree with you, but, the Pistons aren't really playing Piston ball this season.

    I'm just saying, I'm a little bit more concerned, that's all.

    One thing about Mourning is if the Spurs can frustrate him, he'll get away from his game, similar to what Bowen did to Carter tonight. Mourning is a force, but once rattled, everything seems to go sour.

    That's exactly what I don't want to happen.

    I'm not convinced that Rasho can handle them

    If you would have just left it at Miami playing great ball right now, I would have agreed with you.

    But I'm supposed to worry about our chances now because of a 36 year old with bad kidneys?

    Alonzo won't even play that much. I say he gets 15-20 minutes max if he does play. I heard an interview with him today and that's all he's really hoping for. Its not like he's going to be banging around Tim all game. I'm worried more about Detroit and the Wallaces than Shaq and 15 minutes of Alonzo.

    OK, we will see how worried you are when Rasho doesn't know what to do with 2 monsters in his paint.

    I was one of those over a month ago wondering why the Spurs did not go after Mourning vs. Malone.

    Heat will be tougher but still I take Spurs. It is times like this though when I wish we had Willis for 5-10 minutes of banging like last year or the year before. That guy will play for years seemingly.

    All Alonzo Mourning will be doing is changing ties to wear on the bench during the playoffs. WGAF?

    Alonzo would never have thought about coming here in the first place. Think about it. Miami is his home. The Heat is where he spent most of his career and I'm sure he still has strong ties to the organization. He wouldn't be willing to uproot his whole family and move to San Antonio. He's really looking to be comfortable and with his health and all, Miami really is ideal for him. Its also the team with a great shot of getting to the Finals.

    thats not funny, what Zo went through was no laughing matter. He's lucky to be still here.

    anyway i still think detroit with the wallace's and their backcourt will pull through.
