We often wonder what opposing teams, their beat reporters and bloggers are saying about the Celtics. Here’s a look at some enemy chatter from Miami.
“I expected that, when I heard [that the Heat are the Celtics’ target] from Doc, I know Doc very well, as well it should be; our focus is on Boston,” Wade said. “But we do look at other teams. We’re not going to say we’re just looking at Boston. We understand this league is good. When you talk about focusing on the Eastern Conference, you focus on the champs in the Eastern Conference and that’s the Miami Heat. So that’s their message right there more so than them saying I’m not worried about no other team because you can’t beat us four times and lose to everybody else. You won’t make the playoffs.
“I understand what he was saying at that standpoint and we look forward to the challenge every year. Boston is always the team that’s going to make us point fingers [at each other] in the game sometimes. They mess with your mind a little bit. It’s a great challenge for us and by the time you get to the playoffs, we look forward to it. You have to be aware and focused on everything that they’re doing because they can beat you any given night.”Globe – Heat look forward to rivarly
That’s what great defenses do, they frustrate the hell out of teams.
With all due respect to the Celtics, it doesn’t take much to make the Heat point fingers at one another.
Remember Wade’s confrontation with Erik Spoelstra during the Pacers series? And LeBron and Wade are constantly chewing out Mario Chalmers.
I can’t wait to see the Celtics get in Ray Allen’s face. Can’t. Wait.
