I do, but then again I live in Miami. Mavs and Suns might have their runs, but everyone knows what happened last season.

Right now its doesnt seem like it. Theyve been up and down lately and their record shows. They would have a better chance if Shaq comes back. Also, Wade can't do everything. If they're gonna repeat, other players gotta help out. And your right, those teams have their runs but anything and everything can happen in the playoffs

I would like to cheer you up and say that they will repeat for the championship. But I'll give you my honest opinion man, they're not. Here's some of my analysis:
The Heat right now are currently under the 50% mark. Many of their veteran players are getting older like Payton, Mourning, Shaq, and Walker. They're not getting any younger, or better. Not only their age, but the injuries are reall piling up for them this year. And looking at them right now, they don't have a good bench and aren't a deep team compared to the elites today. The Mavericks and Suns can easily defeat the Heat in a 7 game series if it was to start today. I just think that the top two teams have too much firepower for the Heat to handle. It's going to get worse from here on out my friend. They'll need to be rebuilding in the next year or so because a huge part of their team of veterans are going to leave. I'm afraid you Miami fans are going to have to wait possibly a decade for another championship. But never count them out this year, the playoffs are a whole different story. Hopefully your Heat can step it up come playoff time.

They might make the finals because if shaq gets healthy and motivated, they will have no competition in the weak east. As for repeating, the Mavs superior depth will be too much for the aging heat this time as they will be hungry for revenge. The heat also need to get younger, as they relied heavily on aging stars to win last year, which you can't do year after year.

No the Miami Heat is not going to win the championship this year. I personally think it will be the west and by the way watch out. By the way i am going to say the Utah Jazz will take it after all they have beat the suns twice and watch them beat them tonight.

YES! Miami is goin to repeat...noone in the league can guard Dwyane Wade or Shaq.. shaq will come back just in time to help miami with another title defense...plus...from what i hear...miami is lookin to make some trades that would strengthen their roster even more...MIAMI WILL WIN THE NBA FINALS

I don't think the Heat can repeat. They would need Shaq to stay healthy the second half to make sure they even get into the playoffs.

Being from Detroit, I gotta hate (lol) ... naw, but seriously, I just don't think they'll do it again! I am however impressed at how well they've held up without 'The Daddy'. D - Wade will play out of his mind again, and Eddie Jones should be a good addition, I just don't believe that you guys' role players will rise to the occasion like they did last year !! Sorry !!

No. Dwayne Wade was out a few games and Shaq has also been out. I think things are falling apart for them at this point.

I think they will get their. They are a good team. But the Lakers are also a good team; they beat top teams but loose to bottom. So this year is an unpredictable one
