08:05 AM ET 11.08 | After tangling with Miami and losing, 103-73, Nets coach Avery Johnson admitted the Heat were hard to handle, thanks to an embarrassment of weapons. Johnson played point guard on three teams that led the NBA in scoring. He said the Heat could "possibly" become the first Eastern Conference team since Michael Jordan's Bulls (1995-97) to lead the league in scoring. ... "Now the challenge is not getting bored with simplicity," [Heat coach Erik Spoelstra] said. "A lot of those plays are simple." Trust me, that won't be the last time you see the B-word used in connection with this team. Most expect the defending champs to run away with not just their division but the top seed in the East.

Please stop T & R....the Heat getting bored with the competition, Really? The Heat are not a Juggernaut such the Bulls of the 90's, the Lakers of the 80's or the Celtics of the 60's & 80's. This is completely outta hand. They are not that scary!

Didn't the Nets open their mouth and said that they were built to beat the Heat? They just need to shut up and play. They haven't proven anything yet. They even said that they're the best team in NY. Ya right! Shut up! You're still the same team as last year.

They barely squeaked by the Raptors. This Nets team is not as good as they think they are.

Dont worry, the Knicks will not be undefeated for long.

With the Mavs, Magic and Spurs on tap, they are losing 1 if not 2 of those games.

NY is going to find tough sledding when Amare comes back because it seems that this team plays well when either Amare or Carmelo is out but when both are on the court, there is not enough basketballs between them.

As for Miami...boredom will become an issue at times but these guys are vets and they want to win and win a lot.

Put Miami down for 67-15 this season.

Sure the knicks without Amare are undefeated....
But let's be real, they don't make the finals and they don't get past Miami or Boston....

Knicks aren't taken seriously!
Print it, fact.
Undefeated?
Sure, for now, and when Amare returns it's back to somebody being frustrated, and they both can't gel together on the court at the same time.
What's for certain is the knicks can't beat Boston or Miami in a 7 game series!
That's not scary that's a down right fact.
