i could see scenarios where the heat win it, they are playing well, celtics have fallen off since the perkins trade...

Win what, the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs?
― Thraft of Cleveland (Bill Magill), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 18:48 (thirteen years ago) link
Yeah I don't see them beating the Bulls, obviously the Heat are great but they really haven't shown an ability to compete with top-tier teams like the Bulls/Heat/Spurs/Celtics. Thought last month that the Celts would crush them in round 2 but they've really taken a dive.
― frogbs, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 18:52 (thirteen years ago) link
i'm not gonna say that the heat are going to beat the celtics or the bulls, but they're about even money with either team, maybe even odds on favorites over the celts now
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 12 April 2011 20:27 (thirteen years ago) link
favs over the celts now, but I can't see them beating the Bulls
― frogbs, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 20:46 (thirteen years ago) link
if had to bet i would bet on the bulls but it's ridiculous to say the heat couldn't get super hot and win the whole thing
― a fort minor forest (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 12 April 2011 21:14 (thirteen years ago) link
it's ridiculous to say that they couldn't beat them 4 times out of 7 when the two games they played in the regular season when both teams were healthy came down to the final shot
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 12 April 2011 21:15 (thirteen years ago) link
I know it's possible but I can see the Heat get super-exposed during the playoffs; you can see the Bulls elevate their game in crunch-time while the Heat blow a lot of big leads, they just don't seem like they're built for the playoffs. Obviously anyone can win and with that much talent the Heat have a legit shot but it seems to me like they're going to struggle vs. any other top tier team. Like, I can believe the Bulls sweeping the Heat but don't see it happening the other way around.
― frogbs, Tuesday, 12 April 2011 21:24 (thirteen years ago) link
idk bron and wade have plenty of experience in the playoffs w/ teams that are not that much more poorly composed than the current heat one. I could totally see them turning on 'the switch'

xxp well if this year is telling us anything it's that the Cavs teams of the last two years definitely were not just Lebron + a bunch of scrubs, 1 v. 5 basketball the way everyone in the media was making it sound. last years cavs > this year's heat so far.

It's got a pretty good low post game, and a decent midrange jumper. Problems with foul trouble though could make it a non-factor.
― Thraft of Cleveland (Bill Magill), Wednesday, 13 April 2011 13:28 (thirteen years ago) link
wait frogbs, what about this year's cavs???
― i think drake distracts (dayo), Wednesday, 13 April 2011 14:22 (thirteen years ago) link
They built around Lebron so it's no surprise they collapsed after they left. Pretty much every move they made was based around him; like, not to understate the guy's talent at all, but all they really have left are role players, plus they don't even really have the same starting lineup as last year at all. the regular season records have to mean SOMETHING...

perfect tee shot and approach, he's got a very makeable putt for another birdie here too
levin did it again!

did you guys see that putt from either yesterday or friday - had a 7 or 8 footer, turned away as soon as he struck the ball because he thought he missed it, only the ball circled the hole about 1.5 times and dropped

Such a great camera shot of Nicklaus in line with Tiger on the green. Loved when he walked over and Nicklaus replayed the shot at 16 for him; big Tiger grin + "How 'bout that?"

I know Tiger's playing well right now, and he'll probably win today, but I laughed when I read Michael Bamberger on cnnsi.com this morning:
"On Sunday, make sure to set your clocks ahead an hour and your time machine back a decade or more. Tiger Woods looks primed for a monster year.
In January, he won at Torrey Pines for the 75th time as a pro. On Sunday, he'll win at Doral for the fourth time. Next month at Augusta, he'll win the Masters for the fifth time. Who's going to beat him?"
He does go on to qualify that in the next paragraph, but still. I think it's the same guy who wrote something equally silly going into last year's Masters. Winning majors is really hard!

― darrrrggghhh daylight savings (darraghmac), Sunday, 10 March 2013 22:22 (eleven years ago) link
The thing is, Tiger's now on the other side of a psychological divide that he used to work to his advantage. Ten years ago, it didn't much matter how well anyone else was playing going into a major, because winning majors is different. Now--until he manages to win another one--it doesn't much matter how well Tiger is playing going into a major, because winning majors is different.
