Skip Bayless Sticking With Miami Heat In Game 7 Against Boston Celtics
Fox Sports 1 analyst Skip Bayless has been much kinder when discussing the Miami Heat since LeBron James left the organization.
While many have given up on the Heat in the Eastern Conference finals, Bayless still thinks they win tonight against the Boston Celtics in Game 7.
"I picked the Heat in six and, obviously, I was wrong about that," Bayless said. "But I did pick the Heat win the series, so I'm hanging in there."
Bayless' reasoning is more than so he upholds his prediction. He heard when Heat coach Erik Spoelstra talked Saturday night about how the team always doing things the hard way. So why not continue that by having to defeat the Celtics on the road to make the NBA Finals?
That somewhat makes sense, too.
"I will give coach Spoelstra this: he said the other night, `the whole year we've done it the hardest way,"' Bayless said. "Well, they have done it the hardest way. Why wouldn't you do this the hardest way? This is the hardest way because you've lost three straight games, you've lost all your momentum, all your faith, all your trust, all your confidence, all of your gas."'
