The Charlotte Bobcats not only got into Winning Time but they achieved through finally getting the right mix of Players to go with the right scheme. The biggest pick-up in the Free Agent Crop of 2013 was both Paul Milsap to Atlanta and Al Jefferson to Charlotte. Big AL has had an All-Star Type season and has been doing so since ohhhhhh 2008. He and 'Cats Lottery Pick of a few seasons back Kemba Walker have been the Core of the turnaround.

The Miami Heat try and make it a Three-Peat as I just don't see it. I do see them barley making it out the East but not getting pact a bevy of Teams in the West starting with the Spurs or OKC. All that is the Future as they will have their mitts full with 'Cats. King James has been the focal point like always but the Heat needs both Wade County and Chris Bosh to join forces with him or getting Ring #3 is a no-go.

'CATS to win:

Contain King James and good luck with that. Play "Big" going through Big Al and let Kemba Walker take the Heat to a "Night at the Mike CATS Improv". They also need a wing and a prayer but that's why they play the game.

HEAT to win:

They must get that edge back as this should be a Test Run to see how they will fare and how that Engine is looking for a Three-Peat Run. King James will be there but he needs help as Wade and Bosh need to step up big-time. All those Role Players need to step up and make things happen but play within themselves. The Playoffs are a long haul and we will see if getting to the last three "Fight for Larry's" has taken the wind out of the Heat's Sail.


HEAT 4-0...King James and the Heat will take full advantage of others playing deeeeep into their series with much-needed rest.

Game 1 Sunday April 20th at 3:30pm ET....NBA on ABC
