they still have 8 more games to win before this season is a success.
In a sense, it's true of every team that the season is a failure if they don't win the title. Why else are they playing?
That being said, it is ridiculous to expect the best team to win the title every year. I have said since the trade occurred that Miami would immediately be the best team in basketball, barring injuries. Even with all of their injuries, here they are. They may not win it (although I still think they will), but they have the best chance of anyone left.
I'm rooting for the Mavs, but Miami will likely beat them again in the finals. I hope not.
