With a record of 44-11 There is not much to complain about. We are first in the eastern conference and been playing solid as of late. Maybe we could use a veteran big man but I think we could do without.

They have an easier schedule in the second half, as they do not play as many back to back games. The younger players on the team will still develop, and hopefully someone will step up off the bench. Rondo was f'n great against Dallas. The fourth best player on the team, and he can totally take over a game (not that Paul Pierce didn't win that game).

As a Heat fan (and knowing that the Celts and Cavs are the measuring sticks in the NBA), how do you guys react to the Jermaine O'Neal trade to Miami that took place yesterday?

i dont think it was good deal for Miami. O'Neil is not what he once was in my opinion. i dont think it makes them any better.

Well we needed a big body in there badly. I do agree that O'Neal wasn't the best we could have gotten as far as centers go (I would have rather had Brad Smith) but he is a rebounder and has been healthy LATELY. Plus, Beasley now steps into the roll that Marion was in. I'm definitely interested now, but I'm also realistic. The Heat won't make it past the second round.

i question the guys heart also. he just doesnt seem to be that interested or care that much what happens on the court. he looks burnt out.

Hopefully Miami can be a place of rebirth for him. Have you ever been to Toronto? I would be burnt out living there too.

he was burnt out in Indiana also. he may get more burnt out in Miami but from to much south beach night life. there is a reason the guy keeps getting traded.

Personally I think it is a wash, both great players with good defensive skills and great offensive skills. I would personally rather have Jermaine O'Neal, but not by a large margin.
