Official NBA 2012-2013 Season Thread

even if they did make it...look at last year harden was the difference maker...and helped okc get through the playoffs and helped somewhat in the finals...and memphis was already a top 5 defensive team...with little to no offense. so to give up arguable the only player that can create offense for themselves and others...just to beef up defense that was top five made absolutely no since. Yea it works in the season cause you face a team once or twice and isnt even consecutive...so you can win with being a dominant defense because a team doesnt face you regular or have the time to devote/find weaknesses in your game. But in a series such as this one where games are consecutively played and adjustments etc...are being made not having an offense or alternatives to use or a counter punch if you will...will easily get exposed.

if somehow memphis wins the series...i honesty dont think they could win a single game versus miami....What i mean by this is that i dont think it would be 4-0, but i do think it would be more of miami losing a game/games by injuries/not playing miami ball...having an off night etc...rather then them just flat out winning a game against them.

Nope, here's why you're completely wrong sir. Without Rudy Gay, this team is competing in the WCF. They have never ever been there before. In no way shape or form does that equate to a team downfalling. If anything, the move looks like stuff of genius. They are four wins away from the finals. They never got to this point with Gay. Period. Obviously what they are doing has been pretty successful and their offense has been good enough in the playoffs, they're in the WCF. Sure their offense looks like crap against the spurs but...they're playing the spurs for christ sake.

The Spurs are in championship form.

LeBron has to be nervous...we all know what happened the last time they met in the finals.

Lebron was just 22, he is a much better player, with better teammates.

Heat would beat them in 5 games if they meet in the NBA Finals IMO

lmfaooooo @ that jumpball with bonner vs. z-bo

a 20 point lead in the nba is like a 14 point lead in the nfl. no game is out of reach unless you're up 30+.....I watch too much basketball to know this

they got further due to all the injuries...and the matchups in the playoffs... So lets not act like that didnt play a HUGE part in why they are in the wcf. Its the same as the knicks....the matchup and imjuries of key players on opposing teams is the reason they got as far as they did.

They went against an inexperienced clippers...and a okc team without westbrook. They level of competition they faced this playoff is alot weaker then last year. Plus they had key injuries last year themselves. All that factors in as to why they made it to the wcf
