i have said for some time now the Heat are THE team to beat. while the media was switching from phoenix, to sa, to detroit and such i said miami looked like THE team. that's not an easy thing for me to say, I want my spurs to win it all, but looking at the squad miami has, they have very few weaknesses, save for some which can be exploited in a series, they still have what it takes to win the finals. Shaq has NOT made the impact we all thought he would make, and Wade has been THE man for the heat this season. the media just focuses on shaq, without wade, the truth is they would not have a chance in the finals - even with shaq. Wade is going to be BIG in this league. while people were looking for the next magic - along comes king james. but when people were looking for a plyer to take over like mike - well i know he is far from it - but i see Wade being the biggest thing in the NBA in a few years. watching this kid grow into that is going to be fun no matter what team you root for. he has got the goods to be the real deal. SA vs Miami - 7 games, if Pop can see the exploits that I see, we can beat them, if not, it's Miami's title to lose.
