I was really hoping that in our last matchup againts the top team in the East/NBA we couldve been at full strenght, but i guess were gonna have to wait until the ECF, barring injurie.
yeah this game is gonna be way off, if nobody comes to play, because in the bucks game everyone was on there game. We're gonna need more then Shaq, Wade, and Walker...hopefully Anderson can comeout and play another good game, also Shandon.

were also gonna need some meat to throw around the wallaces since Zo is out. Simien has been good as of late
yeah thats true, Barron doesnt have any meat...lol....hes 245 and hes a foot taller then me, seems almost average for his height...

I love everytime Miami and Detroit play. It's our only "real" rival in the NBA right now(Pacers and Net's are not included in this subject.) I think our guys will realize that they need to start playing and get ready for the playoffs. We very well may be playing the Pistons in the ECF....but you never know. But our key, as always, is stop Sheed. The guy is the definition of versitile.

EDIT: Typo fix.
It's impossible for us to play Detroit in the first round... We've already won the division which means the worst we could drop to is the #3 seed, and Detroit has clinched the #1 seed so the only time we would ever face Detroit is in the Eastern Conference Finals.
Omg, wow, I did'nt even notice I said first round, I could've sowrn I said ECF.

Lol, my bad.
i dont think JP will be playing tonight..not sure for sure tho but doubt it

I think Barron has good potential defending Sheed. Im not saying hes goona shut him down, but Barron`s lenght and quick feet could be beneficial guarding Sheed.

Barron???

He hasn't played a significant minute in his nba career, what makes u think tonight will be different?
Simien WILL be on the court, and he's gonna have to contribute in some way for us to play well

duh!!! LOL :biggrin:

i meant for the future, not tonights game. Simien is the obvious choice right now
Well, this game will show just how serious we are about beating the Pistons. Injuries are no excuse, I expect to play them close. If we fall to 3-1 on the season that'll put a big dent in our confidence playing them in 7 games with them having home court.
I think the Heat have a chance.

If Payton and Shaq play three years younger, we'll do great. :biggrin:

Previews are on now!
