I never said such and such a team is BETTER - i was making the argument that people that are stating okc/spurs are better than heats are just as wrong as people stating the heat is better than either.
objective analysis is almost impossible in these kinds of discussions - the fact that people try to argue bench/depth > star power makes it obvious. Yes star players are important, bench/depth is important, but since when has it been so undoubtedly clear that bench/depth > star power?
I'm not saying the case is otherwise, im just trying to say that people need to stop with their elitist basketball perspectives. Even if Miami were to take it all this year, it wouldn't mean that star power > bench/depth. It would be just one case out of decades of play.
lets just let the results speak from themselves. People try to be all analytical and shit before the games are played out, then make excuses after.
Who in here seriously expected clippers to beat memphis this year? In all honesty I'm assuming no very many did. Who expected 76ers to beat a bulls (albeit a roseless one)? Pretty sure most of us assumed that the rose could at least get past 1st round, even without rose.
see where im getting at?

I don't see where your getting at once so ever, Noah was hurt, Deng was hurt as well. So three of your starting five hurt and you expect to get out of the first round? And why couldn't the Clippers beat them in a Playoffs series, they beat them in the regular season series. So I do not get what your trying to say at all. In all honestly I thought both teams were going to win the series because of injuries to the Bulls best players and Clippers having the better overall team.
