Celtics vs. Heat: "Overrated" Heat and LeBron Fall To Celtics 80 - 88

LeBron James to The Miami Heat was not a move favored by this blogger, who thought King James should have went to the greener pastures of New York City and The Knicks.

But observers, and The Miami Heat, asserted that with Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh, James was all but assured of an NBA Title.

Okay.

But there's that little thing called chemistry that has to develop before a team can put up wins. That's what the Miami Heat lacked as they fell to the Boston Celtics 80 to 88 to open the NBA's 2010-2011 Season.

What the Boston Celtics have is the "original big three" in Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, and Rajon Rondo. Add Ray Allen, and ex-Laker Shaquille O'Neal, and you have a formidable team that was ready to put Miami in it's place and did just that.

Now, the question is, how long will it take The Miami Heat to be that NBA Finals contender everyone talks about. Boston Celtics Coach Doc Rivers thinks it's just a matter of time. He told ESPN "They're going to be great."

Time will tell.
