MIAMI HEAT- Sun only shines in Miami

MIAMI HEAT 

  THE MONSTARS OR LOONEY TUNES 

            The Miami Heat are a team destined to win the NBA championship for the 2011-2012 season according to many experts. After their crushing loss to the Mavericks last season, the Miami Heat have been on a mission taking no prisoners in the process. Many call them the Monstars when the team is running on all clinders, never has a team been built full of this much talent since that team from the classic Space Jam film. However with every positive there's a negative and the Heat can go from looking like Monstars to being the Looney Tunes looking lost and outmatched without their Michael Jordan center piece. 

            I believe the Miami Heat have the best team in the NBA, but I also believe because of their star players recent lack of success in the playoff, they are waiting to really turn on the intensity when it matters the most. The Miami Heat's biggest problem is that they fail to "Bring it Every Game". The Miami Heat currently have the third best record in the NBA and recently just got crushed by the Oklahoma City Thunder on the road. The reason I believe the Miami Heat lost was the fact it was on the road and also Kevin Durant playing out of his mind in ever element of the game.  

           The Miami Heat tend to lose focus and believe their talents will get them to the promise land but with no heart, you can't succeed and that goes for everything in life.  The Heat at home are all heart and determination. The Monstars are a ridiculous 20-2 at home, thats the best home record in the league folks. However on the Road they play like Looney Toons going 15-10, which isn't bad but with the talent they have it also isn't good. Come playoff time they might have to go through Chicago to get to the championship. 

           The NBA season is coming to a end and many teams will begin their playoff push so who will show up: the Monstars or the Looney Toons? And who will play Michael Jordan for the Heat in the clutch? 

  

   Key matchups to look out for will be the rematch between the Heat vs the Thunder in Miami. I expect a win for the Miami Heat. Also Heat vs Bulls in Chicago on April 12, 2012 will be a great road test for the Heat and a preview to see if they can handle the pressure of the road. "Long Live The King"
