Wizards and Heat Bringing Fire to the Eastern Conference Finals
Wizards and Heat Bringing Fire to the Eastern Conference Finals
By Ted Marshall, Washington Post
This Eastern Conference Finals matchup is not the kind that one would have expected looking at the playoff tree. The Boston Celtics are not participating, nor are the Philadelphia 76ers, or the Orlando Magic. Instead, the number five seeded Washington Wizards and the number six seeded Miami Heat will be squaring off. How have these mediocre teams made it this far, you ask? The answer: Pure firepower.
Washington fans have never been so enthusiastic about basketball. One can't patrol the streets of D.C. without seeing a someone sporting a Caron Butler jersey. There is a significant buzz in the Verizon Center for every Wizards home game, there is excitement in the air.
And for good reason. Caron Butler and Lamar Odom have been averaging 40 points together in the post-season, and young role players JaVale McGee, Daequan Cook, DeShawn Stevenson, and Javaris Crittenton have stepped up to do their part. The emotion being portrayed on the court by the Wizards squad, has been sensational, and their momentum level is off the charts after sweeping the Chicago Bulls in the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals.
Standing in between the Wizards and the NBA Finals are the Miami Heat, led by Dwyane Wade. Wade is the the top scorer amongst all players still in the playoffs, averaging 25.6 per game. Flanking Wade on both sides are rookie sensation Michael Beasley and high-flyer Shawn Marion, both of whom are able to reel in a double-double daily.
The key for the Heat's success lies in two of their rookies; point guard Mario Chalmers and coach Eric Spoelstra. Chalmers has a lot of weight on his shoulders, attempting to lead the Heat to the Finals as a rookie. While Chalmers showed that he can handle high-pressure situations in the 2008 NCAA Championship Game, he will need to prove himself on an even bigger stage this time around. Head coach Eric Spoelstra will need to work under an enormous amount of pressure as well, and execution is key for the young Heat squad.
Firepower brought both teams to this point. It's now time for one of these electric teams to prove that they're ready to face the best of the Western Confererence as well.Comment

Love the resizing and image effects. Looks dope!
Great read. Sounds like it's going to be a hell of a series.
Heat lack size inside. That's how I was able to beat them in season 1.Comment
