Heat: Who is going to truly challenge this Miami Heat team?

[TIMMYtoZO]

Miami gets better while everybody else gets worse. The Lakers are old and slow, the Thunder replaced Harden with downgrades and lack a scoring big, and everyone else are just average teams who are nothing special. Meanwhile, Miami makes the best move of the offseason by getting Ray Allen and keep their core intact.

[Clipper Nation]

Tbh, your Heat (especially Wade) shat themselves against the Clippers' BENCH, let alone the starters....

[irishock]

Knicks, if Melo continues to shoot the lights out.

[JRHernandez88]

Melo coming for dat ass

[ElNono]

Knicks without Amare look great and DAT TYSON knows how to block Lebron and the Heat... but Amare will come back sooner or later and it all up, tbh

I think the Spurs are the worst fit for them, luckily for the Heat the Spurs will be knocked out by someone on the ridiculously tough Western conference while they will be coasting through the Pacers and Sixers of this World.

[Latarian Milton]

clippers have nothing but monkeyball n the heat will easily beat them to this tbh

sup, brah

[Malik Hairston]

Clippers..

Miami shouldn't have any problems winning the le, tbh, barring injury..

NBA fans that overlook Miami's coasting habits during the regular season, blindly hoping that their regular season flaws will translate to playoff basketball..

West 6th seed >>> East 2nd seed

[Cry Havoc]

Our bench could make it a 6 game series.

I'm a San Antonio Heat fan but I think they can get away with all that "coasting" because of the weak ass conference they play in. I'm not sure they would be so favored to win the 'ship if they had to go through a path like let's say: 1st round: Lakers/Mavs 2nd round: Clippers/Grizzlies 3rd round: Spurs/Thunder and then whoever is waiting on the other side. East is historically weak right now.

Don't matter. They've got the King.

The Heat will tap that a$$ in 5 games. Lebron is making it look way too easy. Very reminiscent of MJ's 1992-1993 season. Anything short of a three peat is a disappointment imo.

[Ace]

Miami coasted last year and they're doing it again this year.

[thunderfan]

OKC, SA, and Memphis all have the potential to challenge Miami this year.

[Latarian Milton]

there's not really a ing chance for the likes of OKC or monkeyball to come close with us in the foreseeable future, let alone challenging us tbh.

[Brazil]

The worst starting 5 heat could go against is Memphis imho, the issue for the Grizz is that heat's bench is going to murder them.

[Latarian Milton]

West 6th seed >>> East 2nd seed

you would have a different point of view had you checked the latest season standing imho. lakers are currently the 8th in the west with a losing record, while the celtics who're the eastern #8, have a record of 9-8 as of now

[Killakobe81]

No one. As long as Wade is @ 75% ... LeBron is bringing dat home. I keep telling the Lakers family and friends its his le to lose but they bring up Lakers, Nets even Clips ... Rofl. It's Lebrons for at least this year ... I think they can be beaten next season.

Do you live close to Miami?
