Even at their peak, they don't have a legitimate post defender other than LeBron - who can muscle and pound with anyone.

In crunch time are you going to put Bron on Parker or Duncan? Bosh or Battier on Duncan? Asking for problems. Birdman is great at help D, but not so much on man D, especially for a stronger guy like Duncan.

Wade and Bosh look really hampered. They stepped it up in game 7, but how many times can they do that?

What worries me the most is Bosh and the mid-range jumper. Pop tries to funnel players to midrange - he gladly gives away the 20 foot jumper because it is about the lowest EV on the court. Only problem is Bosh is the best in the league at the midrange jumper.

No, but they cut off the possession at midcourt and trap the big as well as anyone I've ever seen. You have to move the ball very, very quickly to beat their traps.

Luckily, Parker does move quickly and the Spurs are excellent at passing.

Manu's TO's could really hurt us this series.
