I agree, and I think they will do just that.

Dumars is one of the smartest GM's in all of the NBA.

How is sitting back the past 3 years watching your team fail in the ECF being a smart GM? You see something wrong and you fix the problem. He hasn't done a thing to help the team in 3+ years. We'll see how good he really is after this off-season ends..

I totally agree with elcheato. He hasn't done anything the past few years except draft some decent players that may or may not be good for them in the long run.

Now my predictions on the upcoming season:

MVP-LeBron James
ECF-Celtics over Magic
WCF-Lakers over Hornets
Finals-Lakers over Celtics
ROTY-Michael Beasley (on my Heat hopefully)

I say my Heat will go at best 42-40 (looking like they do right now, healthy and with the #2 pick, probably better if we make other moves) good enough for the 5th or 6th seed and lose in the 1st round in 7 games.

Lol cause he knows the team has the talent to win it all, so it let them get a couple more runs out of them to see what happens..

AFF how is Stuckey, Maxiell, Amir not going to help us in the future?

Amir Johnson is 21 years old..Chill out.

He is legit and you will see it this upcoming season. When Amir got playing time this year he looked great. Just because you don't see him play doesn't mean he sucks.
He's the same case as your boy Bynum mexi, everyone thought he was going to bust, and looks like he will be a stud now..

We didn't give Amir a 3 year, 11 million dollar contract for the hell of it.
Curry said Amir will play (if he is still on the team) way more than he did under Flip.

Lakers Celtics rematch next year. Lakers can't lose if they have Pau. Only team I can see beating LA next year is the Suns or Spurs.

You also can't forget that fact the Lakers didn't even have Bynum in the playoffs. That's why I think they will be back in the Finals next season.

Yeah, they just say it cause they hate the Pistons. They don't really have a reason to why they think he is garbage.

I said might or might not. Stuckey showed up for a couple of games and Maxiell has been solid while Amir hasn't played a lot. You never know, none of these guys are legit.

Well seeing as I won't be able to see if any of these come true...i'm gonna go out on some limbs.

MVP- LeBron James/Chris Paul
ECF- Celtics over Bulls
WCF- Hornets over Spurs
Finals- Hornets over Celtics
ROTY- Bayless or Greene o_O

Oh and I agree with CC, Amir has not shown anything yet really...sure a couple games here and there, but til I see more...he's just not cuttin it.
