Rebuild the Realm: Official 2014 Miami Heat OffSeason Thread

[DetroitEWarren]

23 PPG on 51%. Gonna be looking like black Dirk.

A black Dirk with no post up abilities, no fadeaway, cant create a jumper off the dribble, and limited ability to get to the rack from the elbow. Sure bro, Bosh is bout to show he is an all time great . Most of you nikkas really dont know shyt about basketball and its hilarious to debate with some of you nikkas.

i just want to win our division title again.
we have the toughest division in the east right now. only wack team is orlando.
if we beat out charlotte, atlanta, and washington we are guaranteed a 3rd seed and will make it to at least the second round by default.

but those are the only three team we need to be focused on. if we beat them it's a succesful season imo

 

[intruder]

Yep, Bosh turns the ball over and doesn't really playmake, I see more of a 05/06 Wade/ Shaq dynamic. Bosh will eat, but Wade will eat more because the ball will and should be in his hands.

I prediction is 24/5/6 and 20/9

Nah, i see it more like Wade - 20.5 ppg 48% FG and Bosh - 22.0 ppg 50% FG

My only hope is that Bosh starts taking rebounding seriously again like when he was in TOR. I can see our ball movement being much better with the addition of McRoberts. He's a big but averaged 4 assists per game last year. I see him being our starting PF/C since there aren't many bigs to guard in the post these days. His smart passing will help our slashers (Wade, Deng, Ennis) a lot.

46 wins minimum in the regular season until i see how we start the season. The conference has gotten better and we Wade is still a question mark so I'm still keeping my expectations low.. for now.

Wizards will be good. Atlanta should be respectable if they get Horford back. Charlotte will put up a fight but beatable. Dont underestimate Orlando. They have a lot of young talent. They should be feisty like Philly was a few years ago when they had that young little squad that used to run up and down the court like gazelles.

In what world does a great player who goes from #2 option to #1 option only up his scoring by 1 and drops his FG% by 7???????? But yet the 2nd option ups his scoring by 6???????

Man I understand being cautious, but there should be no shot distribution that leads to Wade scoring what he did last year, unless he suddenly starts shooting 40% from the field. He's back to being the primary ball handler. Dude took 14 shots/game, he could take that in a half

I dont expect Wade to log heavy minutes until playoff time. Meanwhile Bosh only averaged 32 minutes per game last year. I expect that to go up to damn near 38 or 40. Add the extra touches he'll get in Lebron's absense and Wade's love for feeding bigs off drives you should see his scoring go up

Remember even when Wade was our ONLY good player he was never the type to take 25 shots a game. Wade loves to make plays for others. That's why Shaq insisted on coming here. Udonis owes him half his checks. So does Beasley

still at 48% he would have to increase his current output of 14.1(career low) to only 15 or 16 shot attempts per game to just average 20.

i see it more likely that he takes more shots with lebron leaving. at least 17 or 18 shot attempts per game which would mean at 48% he would average around 24 ppg like he did the last time he shot 48% on 17 attempts

Lebron is gone = more than just one extra shot per game for wade

 

[Luke Cage]

at the very least he averages 22ppg
if he takes 17 shots and averages 48% from the field.

to average just 20 or less he would have to pretty much maintain the same number shot attempts he took when Lebron was the first option.
i don't see that happening

Remember i dont expect D-Wade to log heavy regular-season minutes. I think Spo will keep him right around 30-32 mpg until the playoffs. Hope Ennis and whoever our backup SG is ready because we cant afford to wear Wade out in regular-season games.

Bosh on the other hand will have to earn his money. Work his ass for the $118M we gave him. No less than 38-42 mpg

 

[Makavalli]

when the big 3 formed i always thought Bosh should've taken the most shot attempts because he has the best jumper out of the 3 with lebron getting more assists and wade with a few points and assists less but more rebounds and steals. bosh cant just turn it on he needs to be fed from the start so 1st quarter feed him unless the nikka ice cold then get others involved

we actually will have to put alot more effort into the regular season. we can't just coast and expect to make the playoffs at a good seed.
it would be better to play him as much as he is able. because saving him for the playoffs just to be tossed out in the first round won't
help matters. early in the season they will prolly rest him alot but i see him playing alot of minutes late in the season so we can try to get a desirable playoff spot.

 

[954UAlreadyknow]

yea I cant see wade resting or playing low mins


We were struggling last year when he sat... this year if he sits we'll be horrible

We'll have to rely on Wade heavily this year to be successful
