2nd_city_saint787 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 23, 2012 -> 11:50 PM) I still don't think the sixers are that good. But their defense is stellar. They're undersized and don't have any shot-blockers. But they are extremely quick and athletic. C'mon man they beat the #1 seed Bulls, you goota give em some respect If they beat the Celtics it lessens the blow of losing to them even further.

RockRaines Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 The Sixers probably play the best defense in the league, because of that they are always in games just like the Bulls. Of course we have (had) D Rose which is the x factor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seriously wouldn't be mad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody in the east can take the Heat right now, but I think both OKC and SA have a real good chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordan4life_2007 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 The Heat totally took Roy Hibbert out of this series after game 3. That was the only advantage they (Pacers) had. Heat have 4 days off now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 When Wade is on there just are to many problems for a defense. Its just so hard to deal with a pick and roll, because a big guy like Hibbert gets stuck to far out, or to deep under the basket on the switch. Im thinking the Heat may sweep the next series. The real test would be a team like OKC, who can play at a similar scoring pace and they have Durant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fixed Indy didn't even look to go inside during huge stretches these last few games, instead they were chucking up horrible shots. They could've beaten Miami if they played smarter. Unfortunatly for Miami, San Antonio won't make that same mistake, now that's a smart team led by easily the best basketball head coach in the NBA.

If he isn't the Celtics or Sixers will steal at least a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Celtics are simply a more disciplined team than the Pacers. They can get under the Heat's skin too...but they will also run smarter offense and defense.

Avery Bradley is out for the playoffs and Ray Allen is clearly not healthy and is playing bad basketball. The Celtics aren't a very strong team right now.
