How could the Miami Heat not use their four other talents?
Alright--Miami Heat. They got knocked out of the NBA Playoffs against the Bulls. I see exactly why they did, too. They let the offense be completely controlled by Dwayne Wade, who had a shoulder injury, and therefore (becuase of the injury) averaged 5.75 Turn overs a game. But if you take a look at four of the Maimi Heat players statistics on NBA.coml; you notice that they have three players they don't fully use; 1)Jason Kapono, who has the highest 3-pt percentage of the NBA. They could have used him as an outside player, but no. 2)Antoine Walker. He averages 18.0ppg as his carreer average, but during the playoffs he only had 9. What's up with that? 3)Shaq. Shaq has the highest carreer ppg in the NBA, so why can't he play that great now? 4)Alonzo Mourning. He has a 17.4ppg for his career. All four of these players are being underestimated right now. The Heat has been able to rely on Dwayne Wade before his injury, but they could've won if they'd have used these four's talents.

This is why Kobe is not as good as Jordan?
The Heat pretty much ride on d-wade's back, if he plays good, then the team plays good just like last year when they won the championship. If he plays bad, then their going down.Whom would you rahter have as your PF, Karl Malone in his prime or Kev Garnett in his prime?
OH REALLY?!Half court basketball court measurements?
Miami lost for three very important reasons.1) They're old. Mourning, Shaq and Walker are all in their 30s. Shaq is 35 and Mounring is 37. These guys may still have some gas in the tank, but they can't move like they used to.
2) Injuries. Wade's injury was critical because the entire team was engineered around a penetrating shooting guard. Kapono is a talented three point shooter, but he can't penetrate and spread out the defense.
3) Lack of desire. These guys already won a championshiop. They reason why they won last year is because everybody was healthy and they were desperate to win a ring. That wasn't the case this year. Remeber all of those free-throws that Miami missed in that Bulls series.
In the first two games, Miami shot over 80% from the line, but they gave up in games three and four.
Here's the stats.
In game 3, Miami shot 45% from the free throw line. In contrast with Chicago's 78%.

In game 4, Miami shot 48% from the free throw line. In contrast with Chicago's 79%. And the strange thing about is the fact that the bulls only had a field goal percentage of 38%.

Whenever a team fails to make free-throws, that tells you that they don't have any fight in them.
