    Miami now feels our pain getting owned by Bruce Brown.

    If the Nuggets are healthy, they are not a fluke team next year.

    I think we need to make a few small tweaks to be able to compete with them.

    I think he might be better, but teams will adjust though. They will get big centers. I wouldn't mind bringing Dwight back just for Joker.

    I am just mad they swept us, seems like that was the bigger achievement for them than beating the Heat.

    Murray with the off night from the field, but still dishing another 10 dime game. Miami with no answer for the Joker, no answer for Gordon and no answer for . . . Bruce Brown!

    It's Denver's year. They've stayed healthy and have played the best, most consistent ball. BTW, I know Miami stole one, but our games ended up closer against the Nuggets than the Heat. They are overmatched. One more game seals the deal.

    No doubt the athletes are better today and he was never the best athlete, even for his era. That being said, a whole ton of guys from the old days played against him and he was always well thought of by the players. He was a good passer, but dang, even though he averaged 18+ ppg for his career, he had a god awful shooting percentage. Won a lot of rings and you can afford to be a bad percentage shooter when you play next to the best defensive player of the era!
