Eastern Conference Finals: Heat vs. Bulls.
wcsoldier:
^^^ I do agree on the endurance point ... the Bulls are dedicated to defense from the start of the game ... they basically play with the same intensity on the defensive end the whole game and wear the opponent down ... the versatility of Noah and Gibson is just great , they can basically stay home with the guard/wing players on a pick n roll switch
the Heat being undersized is just part of the rebounding pb but not the only explanation ... J Anthony is doing a great job at hedging the Rose/Booz pick n roll but when he's out there on the perimeter , the others players have to rotate to put a body on Noah/Gibson.
- the other pb is Miami biting on Boozer faking the set of a screen ... he has alsways done that in his carreer with Utah ... he basically fakes setting a screen and roll to the basket .. if the player covering Booz bites on the fake , it's basically a 2 on 1 near the basket with Boozer and Noah ... ending up in easy baskets
On the Shaq comment : Shaq was already (way) past his prime in Miami ... his prime ended in 02-03
Bch:
Now with that super long wack layoff finally over... its time for the long awaited game 3
As far as the endurance goes, the emergence of udonis haslem the heart and soul of the team shaking off all the splinters for all of his 8 games in, the bench looks formidable and ready to match the intensity of joakim noah and taj gibson.. ud is our super thug in corn rows who can whip chris boshs ass in 5 seconds.. while mike miller isn't all the way back yet he's a very good rebounder, lays it all on the line and should provide us with some energy with his inspired play now that he's finally had his florida gator reunion with hhaslem on the court
Much better fight on the glass game 2.. noah looks light on his feet when he's getting boxed out for the board.. I want to see if the bulls bench can generate offense in miami where they don't have the benefit of women and children shouting mf's at d wade
As for shaq in the couple of yrs he spent down here was still dunking on ppl like tyson chandler... I would argue that after he won his last championship trophy he put himself on auto pilot high jacking teams for there cash kinda like luke walton lathering up phil jacksons balls ok maybe not that bad, but shaqs just been cruising

Well it appears that the finals are going to be either Heat vs Mavs or Heat vs Thunder. My three least favorite teams= Thunder, Heat, Mavs. What a fun season this has been.

^^^ you writing the bulls off already? They killed Miami on the glass, but gave them a lot if open looks all night. Miami outplayed them all game, yet It was close to the end. I'd say it's far from over

Chris Bosh is effectively guarding the only scoring option for the Bulls.
I almost want to say this is over.
