Miami is getting beat because the Spurs know how to stop Iso ball, use their depth, and do the basics on offense that makes the Heat and other teams work to guard them. This series is also showing the negative impacts of Jordan worship in American basketball and how HS and college are failing in teaching guys how to play the game. The Spurs aren't an athletic team and they also have second round guys contributing to the team.

Role players on the Heat don't know how to be a role player like guys in the 80's and 90's knew. They don't know how to cut or to create offense for other guys. They just stand around waiting for Lebron to do something. Wade and Bosh just stand around until Lebron creates an open shot for them or until it's their turn to iso.


Can't disagree with most of that. Part of the reason they don't know how to be role players is that several weren't role players on their prior teams. They weren't the "battier" of the squad.

There are several teams this year that attempt and successfully play team ball. The Heat are getting spanked because the Spurs have adjusted their play and the Heat haven't, it's the Cavs for Lebron again, and the Spurs are just flat out shooting the ball well. Ridiculously well.
