How long does it take to recover from a concussion? Paul just went out with a concussion against cleveland. Let's hope he stays out.

He's already been ruled out for the game against the Bulls.

portland might do us a favor by beating mia. They're ONLY up by 2. They were up by 9 a few minutes ago.

Sweet, another loss by Miami, they're really slumping, would take a huge collapse by the Bulls to lose the #2 seed now.

not sure a "huge collapse" would be what it took...more like a mini-slump by us (losing 3-5) and miami getting it back together and running off a 5 game win streak...

But, regardless, things a-lookin' up.

Bulls are 3 games up in the loss column, own the tie break and have the easiest schedule in the league left to play. Unless Miami do something ridiculous like win out, it would take a huge collapse from the Bulls for Miami to pass them.

Let's face it! Miami Heat doesn't have a good team just three star players, and head coach sucks!

I said this from the very beginning. You need size and toughness in the front court and you need depth if you want to beat the quality teams. Haslems injury was fatal for them.

^yep yep

doesn't matter if you have lebron and wade...if you have no size inside to spread things out and for defense and rebounding...that's trouble...especially against the good teams that have big frontcourts like LA,Boston,and Chicago

Seriously, in the 3 games the Bulls played the Heat, compare bench production. Its pathetic. I honestly dont know whats wrong with Mike Miller. The guy has been awful as of late. He wasnt that great before the concussions either. He might have had 2-3 good games.

I wish the rest of the players in the league didnt want to join the big three and try to cut corners to a championship ring. I dont think they win one this year but i think a couple off-seasons with some good MLEs a vet min players and theyll be set. Hopefully players say **** off and go to Chicago, Boston or anywhere but Miami.

Hearing Boshs comments about his unhappiness about his role with the team has me wondering is the big 3 will be the big 3 for very long. If they struggle for a couple years, i can see one of them calling it quits. I definitely they all are having regrets in their own way.

Chicago was the place to be all along. Many of us knew it and it wasnt because we're mostly Bulls fans around here but its just obvious when you looked at what this team had under contract already. I laughed at my Heat friends before the decision when they tried to argue that the Heat had better pieces. What a joke.

My favorite teams
  1. Chicago Bulls
Flipping back and fourth between the blackhawks and Boston-clippers game. Looks like Boston is going to give this one up at home.
