Comments on: Rondo is not lacking confidence about beating the Heat http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/05/27/rondo-is-not-lacking-confidence-about-beating-the-heat/ Basketball - NBC Sports Mon, 20 May 2013 17:19:21 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: darqqing987 http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/05/27/rondo-is-not-lacking-confidence-about-beating-the-heat/comment-page-1/#comment-97577 Mon, 28 May 2012 22:23:03 +0000 http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=99463#comment-97577 Both the Bulls and the Celtics swept the Heat 3-0 last year in the regular season. But the Heat beat them both in 5 games in the playoffs. Think about that before you embarrass yourself. Any true NBA fan knows that the playoffs are a whole different type of games. Specially at this stage of the playoffs. Ray Allen has a bum ankle, avery Bradley who had a better chance of guarding D-Wade is out after shoulder surgery, Paul Pierce isn’t playing like himself with bum knees. We all know that lebron will walk all over him.

However the Heat beat them in 5 games during the playoffs. Think about that for a second before you rely too much on the regular season. The playoffs are a whole different animal…

Boastfulness indicates his doubt, and as good as he is, he has a lot of self-doubt.

They are peaking and even though Celtics may think they own this team, this is a very different team than during season. Heat bench is coming on strong, and their Big Three is focused. Bench is Xfactor this series. Bosh against Spurs, and Spurs better not count Thunder out yet.

Hmmm….if Boston can ‘out-execute’ another team, doesn’t that make BOSTON the ‘superior team’….hmmmm
Just because the HEAT has a bunch of snarly bullies battering other teams around don’t make them in any way superior…just MEAN and DIRTY…
Just remember there is no R in HEAT…
So no heart
NOT SO BOSTON…..they play with EVERYTHING they got….and so HEAT don’t count yer chikens jes yet….cretons

Pietrus is a great defender! We’ll have PP on LBJ obviously and BB on Haslem. KG will harass whoever starts the 5. We can let Wade go off from time to time as long as we can control everyone else and get our offense going. This will be an interesting series.

They play basketball the right way none of that showboating BS that the Heat love so much.

Everyone knows? Come on man. Boston is title town. half the titles lakers have was 70-80′s man. You still got magic’s nuthuggers hanging over your bed man. The run is over in LA. C’s have one more run in their twilight… can never count out heart and pride. Don’t sleep on the Spurs either… no one on the team can dunk but they have been rackin up titles the last 15 yrs. Ain no joke.

How rich. You clowns only wish your franchise was the proud owners of 16 LARRY O’BRIEN’S. In case you’re a C’s fan, yeah, they have 17 titles but everyone knows the pre imminent franchise in the entire NBA resides in the city of angels. And I ain’t talking about the Clips. More than half of the C’s titles were won when the NBA consisted of 12 teams, each team had 3 black players, and everyone wore nut huggers and canvas Chucks.

They were swept by Chicago n regular season last year and took playoff series 4-1. The Heat actually went 1-3 vs Boston (not swept) in regular season and won playoff series 4-1.

The Celtics look very old and slow. I mean whose going to cover Lebron and Wade on the floor at the same time. I hope they don’t try and put Rondo on Lebron, he’s now posting up, no chance. Ray Allen on D- Wade, come on now. The C’s are done, they are way too old. Miami is hungry as hell! Lebron and D-wade pretty much 1-2 punched the Pacers. In my opinion, Indiana is a very talented bunch. C’s have no chance, trust that!

Boston you really think LeBron and Wade don’t want to eliminate you guys once again? This isn’t just a matchup its a heated battle. Its going to get real ugly. Respect due to them because they know how to ball. Rondo, Pierce, Allen, KG you cant sleep on them at all. However Miami is hungry right now and the Celtics are in our way to that championship. Nothing personal strictly business as usual. Miami in 5, 4-1.
