NBA Commentary: Is Miami Unstoppable?

, , , , , ,

I’ve avoided devoting much of this site’s NBA commentary to the Miami Heat. I’m assuming we’ll have plenty of time in the playoffs to go over them, and similar to the Los Angeles Lakers, the Heat get more than their share of attention in the mainstream media. Although unlike Los Angeles, at least Miami gets their media love for all the right reasons. TheSportsNotebook gave in on the Lakers earlier this week, and today we’ll do the same for the Heat. We’ll look at why they’re having such a great year and if there are any weak points that could derail a run at a second straight title.

Is Miami Sports Set For A Final Four-NBA Parlay?

, , , , ,

It’s a great time to be a basketball in the Miami area. If you’re a fan on South Beach, you know coming into the year that the Heat would give you a shot at a title, but LeBron’s team was not just the only basketball excitement—it was the only team in town worth watching in any sport, unless you were taken by the University of Miami’s mediocre 7-5 season in college football. Now, seemingly out of nowhere comes the U’s basketball team. The Hurricanes are flying high, ranked third in the nation, and it’s time to ask the question—could the city of Miami nail a big parlay and sweep through the Final Four in April, then take the NBA title again in June?
