Saya ng Sunday!! OKC-HEAT

[ecneret]

yeah! let's go heat!

nba finals: mia vs okc

[spencer101173]

fan ako nang boston at heat.. medyo sad lang dahil last chance sana nang big 3(boston) to get another ring, kaso medyo malabo dahil sa lakas nang OKC.. but happy ako dahil nanalo yun heat at may pagasa sila sa OKC.. hehe

naalala ko dati nun practice game namin sabi nang coach ko bakit yun suot ko yun #21 KG shoes (addidas) tapos practice jersey ni LBJ (nike) tumawa lang ako.. hehe

[ecneret]

^

What do you think sa finals matchup?

Starting 5

*Chalmers vs. Westbrook (Westbrook offensively and defensively. Chalmers should start to hit most of those open three's)

*Wade vs. Sefolosha (Wade got the Offensive and defensive ability against Thabo but expect him to make Wade earn his points.)

*James vs. Durant (Durant kung magchochoke si LeBron. Offensively It can go either way but sa Rebounding, Defense, Energy, Durability, Playmaking and those other little things, hands down LeBron.)

*Haslem vs. Ibaka (Depende rin kasi si Haslem streaky kaso mas consistent si Ibaka plus his unmatched shot blocking kaya kanya yung edge)

*Bosh vs. Perkins (Offensively Bosh but defensively, kay Perk ako. Siguro Bosh ako kasi more consistent sya)

Bench
Thunder>>> Miami (Battier, Miller are the only consistent players on the Heat's bench no match compared sa OKC who got Harden, Fisher, and Collison is just better than Miami's bench.)

Coach
OKC < MIA Parehong bata but Coach Spo got more experience than Scott Brooks and half court sets mas maganda although hindi naman spectacular, mas maganda ikot ng bola ng Heat than ISO heavy offense ni Brooks but sa adjustments, lamang si Brooks.)

Overall
I think this series can go either way. OKC is better offensively but Miami is better on defense. IMO, Miami will win if LeBron keeps his stellar performance on both ends and if Wade, Bosh, and Chalmers could give consistent numbers. Heat also need all the help they can get on their bench especially Battier and Miller's 3-point shooting and defense. OKC on the other hand should knock all their jumpers and try to contain LeBron because honestly Durant can't defend LeBron 1on1 because even KD's taller, LeBron is faster and quicker than Durant. But on the other hand, LeBron could guard Durant 1on1.

i agree. yun din ang napansin ko, kung magco-contribute ang bench ng miami malaki ang chance nila na manalo... pero dadaan sa butas ng karayom ang heat sa thunder.... pero for sure magandang series 'to... syempre, heat sa game 6! :lol:

Although I'm disappointed as a Celtics fan, I'm satisfied the way they went out against the Heatles. At least, the doubters and so-called "experts" were proven wrong when they thought or wrote that the Heat would steamroll Boston. What? They needed seven games to beat a couple of banged up and washed up stars?

On the Finals, I think the teams are evenly matched save for the 5, where Bosh out-quicks and outshoots Perk. OKC trumps Miami's bench as well and the Heat better have their 2 main stars (Wade and LBJ) go without rest in order to keep their foot on the gas vs. OKC. Also, will LBJ have the testicular fortitude to take the shot with the clock running down and the game on the line? Or, will he continue to defer to Wade, who seems to thrive in playing the hero for Miami? For OKC, can it survive one of the league's best defensive teams? Will they wilt under pressure considering its their first time to reach the NBA Finals?

Fearless forecast: OKC in 7, with KD taking playoff MVP honors.

I disagree with you siguro Heat sila nung andun pa si Bosh but nung nalaman nilang malayo pang maglaro si Bosh they picked Boston in 6 I'm saying the prediction of the guys on TNT. Shaq and Kenny Picks Celtics to come out of the East in 6 games while only Barkley picked the Heat in 5.

I think Ibaka will guard Bosh and Perkins is on Haslem. That is more appropriate due to speed issue.

Thabo will definitely make DWade earn his points. While RW will eat MC out.

Tapos andyan pa si James Harden. Walang sixth man na matigas ang Miami eh.

OKC in 6 games.
