Big question is who can stop the Miami heat.The task of stopping the Heat
hasn't gotten any easer for opposing teams. The Heat have added some size to the roster with the addition of Greg
Oden. This gives the Heat a much needed presents inside, which was the teams biggest weakness by far last year. But the health of Oden is the only question not answered yet for the Heat. So who has a chance to derail the train in South Beach.
The Three teams that can stop the Heat are
- Indiana Pacers
- Brooklyn Nets
- Chicago Bulls
The Pacers came very close to defeating the
a year ago in the playoffs, pushing them
to the limit. Paul George has become one of the
top players in the league and is getting better
every day and I think he could be a top 5 player by years end. Also having Roy hibbert in the middle of one of the leagues best defensive teams gives the Pacers a good chance to slow down the Heat. The one thing that might be a big help for the Pacers this year is getting back Danny Granger from injury. Getting him back could be the missing piece to the puzzle to get the Pacers over the hump.
The Brooklyn Nets are another team I
think has a good chance to give problems
in the playoffs. With the additions of Kevin
Garnet and Paul Pierce. I think the Nets are going to be a very hard team to beat. They are going to be hard to score on an they have two players on there team that are very hungry for chance to stop the Heat. Brooklyn also has a very good point guard in Darren Williams who will give Miami problems, and the point is probably the weakest spot on the Miami heat team.
The Bulls are a team to watch for but I'm
not complete sold. Getting Rose back is
a big difference for this team but I don't think
he can carry them the whole way.
If the Bulls want to beat the Heat I think they
need a least another scorer on the team someone who
can get 20 points on regular biases.
