:mjlol: Miami. Wade is washed. They not only lost Bron but most of the perimeter shooters. Bosh is not a leader. Chalmers will have to be the playmaker and who knows how that will be after 4 years of playing behind Bron. They will be tough Defensively still but I don't see how they can score consistently

Wade is gonna be the primary playmaker on the perimeter and McRoberts is probably the best passing 4 in the league who can space the floor with his 3 point shot and create looks for others because he's a very good ball handler.


Bosh isn't a leader but he was able to get into the playoffs with Fukkin Bargagani as his 2nd best option and has only improved his offensive capabilities and scoring prowess plus he's one of the most clutch big men in the league.

Deng ain't there to space the floor. He's a great passer, a great cutter, and smart player who will take advantage of the fact that we have great passers in both Wade and McRoberts.

Keep underestimating us though.

Wade whos missed the season last year is going to bring the ball up the court and run the offense? :mjlol: Mcroberts is a journey man. A low budget Dirk. Bosh making the playoffs twice in seven years in a terrible conference is not anything to brag about. Hes never shown to take it to the next level. Deng's production has decreased significantly. Your team has no athleticism. They will struggle to score without Bron creating and lack of perimeter guys. Sixth seed

Wade, who was the most efficient guard in the league, and dropping 19 a game despite being the clear cut 2nd option. Did you even watch the Heat play? Wade is still a very talented ball handler and passer.

McRoberts is still one of the best passing big men in the league and creates great looks due to his 3 point shooting, great passing, and ball handling for his size.

Bosh put up 24/10 guy and he had such studs as Bargagani, Turkoglu, and Calderon as his team. That team was defensively stunted and Bosh still put up numbers that would put him in contention for best PF in the league RIGHT NOW.

AND HE'S EVEN BETTER. Bosh supposedly isn't a leader but pretty much every time Lebron sat out and Bosh was called on to handle business, he looked just as good as he used to and was knocking down game winners against top teams in the NBA.

And DENG is still good. Using his short stay in Cleveland, with an awful coach and no locker room chemistry, as some sort of example of his ability is dumb. He's an elite defender, a good passer, and a decent scorer. 16 PPG plus elite defense, in a league full of elite SF, is definitely worth it especially if it means Wade can focus more on offense.

Your team is old, injury prone, still lacking in size. 6 seed.

3rd seed if healthy. Spo won 47-43 games with a much worse roster and BEASLEY as a 2nd scoring option.

Stay ridjng my team's dikk though :myman:

Edit: this nikka is a Bulls fan and he's talking about my squad being injury prone? LMAO

Wade played more games last season than your star player has played in two and you have two injury prone big men in your starting squad with a coach who is notorious for running players into the ground.

Was, Tor, and char are all better then you on paper. I fully acknowledge my teams health issues. Still proven to get results done. Still have enough depth to be a top seed. You think Spo can do the same if when Wade goes down? You trust the team of Chalmers/Cole to run an efficient offense? You have a tandem of Deng/Granger on the wing. :mjlol: Your team is a sixth seed. Just accept that

What results do yall have? You've been our bytch since the big 3 formed and then got shown up by Washington. Your team is full of playoff frauds that get exposed after the regular season winds down.

Your team and your MVP exist to be Lebron's bytch, let's be honest.

Not scared of Washington, Toronto, or Charlotte. 3rd seed.

Edit: Chalmers still owns Rose's soul
