They say we can challenge the Heat and are surprised about Avery Bradley

I've always liked being the underrated, overlooked, underdog that no one talks about.

maybe they finally realised that NY is just a bunch of chuckers who hope the 3 ball goes down. If it doesnt..... they are horrible

Well, the commentators got it right.

I believe one of them mentioned that BOS is the LAST team that MIA wants to see again in the playoffs.

LeBron James will NOT be able to muster anymore Superman-Like game 6 performances NEXT time.

I wouldn't be quick to say that if I was you.

He may.

Their big issue is that Dwayne Wade hasn't looked very good and they need him to play well.  If we are throwing Bradley and then Lee at him off the bench?  He better be playing well because he will have a hard time regardless.

This.

I have no doubt Bron and Bosh will bring it in the playoffs and we'll have our hands full not just due to their talent but the inevitable officiating bias in their favor.  The question is, can Wade muster up an all-star effort if we play them.  I think a healthy combo of AB and Lee will really limit his effectiveness as well as help limit the effectiveness of their shooters off the bench.  If Green can provide some decent D on Bron, I think we can take them in a series.

We are younger and more athletic this year = closing out on their shooters better

And you're right we will limit Wade's effectiveness for sure in Bradley and Lee don't think that's a stretch to say.

LeBron will be LeBron but if we can limit Wade and the three ball I like our chances.
