iamshack Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 Quite a bit surprised by the start Memphis has gotten off to against OKC today. I am not among those who believe Memphis is all that great. Of course, this is one of the downsides of all that young talent OKC has....inconsistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, you see teams that have been off for 4-5 days come out sloppy against teams that just played all the time in the playoffs. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see the Bulls in trouble at the half tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MexSoxFan#1 Posted May 1, 2011 Share Posted May 1, 2011 QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 1, 2011 -> 10:54 AM) i was reading yesterday that Haslem and Miller are unlikely for game 1, possibly more. That is not good for a team that already has an extremely weak bench The Heat outside of the Big Three are garbage...If KG dominates Bosh, no way Wade and James can score enough to beat Boston IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, this is all about Bosh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well was there any truth to the rumor that the only reason we even hired him was because WWW told us to? I remember reading that the FO didn't even necessarily care for Thibs...
