Celtics defeat Heat ( again)

So last night the Celtics went into Miami and defeated the Heat for the second time in this short season. Does this mean the Heat will not win the championship. No it does not. It does mean, however, that they cannot be favored at this point.

It will take time for them to learn how to share, it is still undetermined if the egos of Wade and James can coexist. Can Lebron contribute while the offense is isolating for Wade and vice versa.

I read an amazing stat yesterday, in the first 8 games Lebron had two, that is 2, offensive rebounds. How does that happen. It is almost as if you are avoiding the ball for that to happen.


Chris Bosh is a fine player and will be a fine asset but calling him a third member of that trio is like saying that Dwight Evans was right there with Lynn and Rice in 75. Later he did prove to be and perhaps Bosh will but at this point he is not. He was a good player on a bad team and now he is a good player on a team that is supposed to be great. It is not the same and will not be judged the same and if this team does not win the blame will float to him because to blame LeBron would admit a huge mistake.

It will be interesting to watch and surely most fans are rooting against them. LeBron has set himself into a position where he will fail if he does not win it all. That is a very hard place to be.
