Would have been better to get the Bucks first while Giannis is still hobbled but oh well. Either way, they're the two teams standing in our way to the ECF.



The Bucks are gonna struggle against Indiana badly IMO.

They are 1-4 this season against them and their perimeter defense combined with Lopez being on a deep drop, makes them an ideal match up for the Pacers.


Hope so. We'll beat the Pacers assuming we get there in round 2 and Jo is healthy.

It' s the same.
If you want to win the East, you have to go through the Celtics.
First, second, third, fourth, fifth round it doesn't matter.
If you can't (as in the past) you go home.
Simple.


Not really, what matters is Embiid getting past 2nd round, at this point it will be worse choking than Arsenal for him.
There is zero chance we can beat Celtics, however we would have a chance to make the ECF if we avoid them until then.

And if you lose with the Celts in the ECF, you'll feel better?
To me, it's the same.

That been said, if the Celtics don't win the ring this year, it would be an epic fail for them.

Yes, of course, Embiid needs to surmount that elusive 2nd round first and foremost, that's the 1st step for this franchise to go forward. We would crash out in ECF, but I can assure you the mental state of the team would get a HUGE boost.

He got activated after losing the 7/8 play in last year. Hope for the same again this year. No better team to face Saltics in round 1 than Heat.


Arsenal you are correct. As the kids say the Heat want all the smoke. They are not even going to try to win until the 2nd play in game. :lol:

Jimmy wasn't 100% and we had injuries.
