That series a couple of years ago (both teams are way better now but still) when marcus came back into the series his passing made a huge dif. (kyrie and gordon of course hurt). With neither hayward nor smart, we were so predictable. First, we have to beat the Raptors, and the Bucks have to beat the Heat!! I would not be surprised if the Heat beat the Bucks!

Heat could def beat the Bucks. Between Bam and Butler - Heat have two very good defenders who can really challenge Giannis. And the secondary scorers on the Bucks are so inconsistent. Also, Heat are very very good 3 pt shooting team.

I feel Miami is a team much like ours..no big man. Oh I forgot Olynyk...HA! They gave the Bucks fits and contained Giannis for only 18 pts. They could be a tough match for us but, of course, Bucks will bounce back. Butler had an awesome game but scoring 40 don’t think he’ll do it again. Dragic is very good too. We’d face another Alumnus besides Olynck, Crowder, always a fighter. They picked up Iguodala from GS...alway liked him as a sub. OK, do I want them to beat Bucks....Hell yes !

SF...gotta get past the Raptors first...
Bruins just got eliminated minutes ago in double OT...1 game to 4...Tukka Rask, goalie, became family guy and left the bubble to go play tiddlywinks with his clan during one of the few years he has left to play...

Lack of big man is not the identity of the Heat, nor is it the identity of the Celtics. Teams whose best players are C have gone nowhere, and its a trend that is like 8 year running. If the Lakers didnt have AD, they would still be a playoff team. If they didnt have LeBron - they would be toast. ITs very much Lebron's team. And AD isnt really your typical big man, as he moves well and can shoot. Where he kills you is the ability to score from anywhere - not just his power advantage. There literally isnt one player in the league, who plays a power game, that scares me. The Pistons tried to win via power - they went nowhere. The best player on the T'Wolves is a Center - they went nowhere. AD was on a team that went nowhere for most of his career. Embiid doesnt even scare me. Because teams that run their offense through the center just cant keep up. Theis is a better player than both Marc Gasol and Brook Lopez. In today's switch happy NBA, a big bruising center is a liability (with rare exception). I see no reason to address the C position in the off-season. Except for maybe a third option for depth behind Theis and Rwill. I dont think I could name 5 centers who Id rather have than Theis.

Guards use to just let Centers back down the opposing Center. But its not the case anymore. If Embiid tries to win via posting up on us in the playoffs next year, Smart will jsut steal the ball from him.
