Miami isn't going no where

Just like the lakers, with the addition of malone and payton,and the wolves with the addition of spree and cassel.
Why do Gms think by adding a bunch of stars to there team it's an atomatic lock to win the title.

If we have learned anything from nba history, a balance, of youth, leadership, veterens, a solid 6th man, solid role players, 2 super stars, and a solid defensive minded coach, is what championship teams are made of. Teams kill me when they pile on all these star players who are more concern with numbers rather then wins.

Miami's been on my ish list for awhile... so yeah, let 'em crash, let 'em burn.
Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year. GO KNICKS!

i mean, by nowhere you mean one of the final four teams and in most cases, the final 2 teams.

that's somewhere. not the title, but it's somewhere.

look at the payrolls too. at least they're spending the $$$'s wisely.

i can't hate on them b/c we would've been doing the EXACT same thing if we had cap room under dolan.

That article is a bunch of bullsh!t. Pure hating. Miami is a well built team and they have been very lucky the past couple of years. They were contenders last year and they have gotten better unquestionably. Not by adding Hall of Famers at the end of their careers but by adding players in their prime AND accomplished veterans.

No matter how much you hate a team or a person (I despise Riley.), you should not let that color your views so much that everything they do is bad even when they are obviously doing great. You know why? It just hurts you inside in the long run, ulcers etc.

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

It's overwhelmingly obvious that Miami will be unbeatable as long as Shaq is healthy.

I too long agree that a team with Walker and Williams might have chemistry problems. I was even ok with just walker, but like portland of 5 years ago, and the mavs two years ago, you can have too much talent.

Add finley? Why?

Having this much talent gives Miami great options. Williams can get out of control at times, but he led a much less talented Memphis team as the PG to a 50 win season in the west. If it doesn't work out with Walker, they'll trade him or decrease his minutes and give more minutes to Haslem and Posey at SF/PF.
