Maybe it is just me, but I am surprised by the lack of movement in the Heat's offense...
It seems to me that when I am watching Miami play, Wade or Bron is dribbling around and the other guy is just standing on the other side of the court. How come there isnt more cutting and moving without the ball?
Now, Im not saying that is their only problem (lack of size, lack of point guard--come to mind), but sometimes, I dont even think they are maximizing the potential of what they do have now.
As for Bosh, earlier in the year, he said he was looking foward to not being in the paint so much...what did he think the Heat was going to need from him?
Personally, I think the Heat should get at least 10 rebounds from him every night--no excuses.

Neither Wade or Lebron are used to playing off the ball. This is where people talk about their games being too similar: ball-dominant, slashers with streaky jumpshots. I think Lebron with his size and athletic advantage should be more on the receiving ends of plays and let Wade do the bulk of the play-handling. I do think these two could learn to compliment each other, but they need to establish clear roles, as opposed to going from one game to the next swapping who does the playmaking and who takes the final shot. It's hurting the rhythm of both players and in particular the less talented role players.
And for god sakes Lebron, you're practically Karl Malone's size with Jordan's athleticism. Get a damn post-game!

I am 100000000000000000% with you about Miami's offense. I'm amazed by the lack of screen roll and pick and pop movement in their offense. The teams that do this the best are the toughest to defend in the NBA.
They also lack an athletic guy at the five-spot. It doesn't hurt them much on offense but it kills them on defense. They get killed on the boards by teams with more athletic centers.
Their bench also needs to be stronger.
If Miami makes it to the conference finals I'll be surprised.
