"Heat Playoffs: Germ Warfare"

    With the series between Miami and Chicago about to go underway and Luol Deng one of Chicago's best players reportedly being diagnosed with Meningitis I am surprised that there have been no health issues that have been raised by the NBA. There was a report as well that several Bulls players were also exhibiting the same flu like symptoms that Luol Deng had. of course they probably had doctors who said there might be a risk of infection but knowing how potentially money making any series involving the Heat I'm sure those suggestions were turned down.

      Imagine the scenario of Lebron James playing with Flu-like symptoms, would he still be able to produce scoring wise as much as the great MJ? If any of the big Three succumb to the germs that the Bulls are bringing to Miami then expect them to go on panic mode and the finals would now be determined via germ warfare! This has been turning out to be a great playoff season where anything could happen , I don't think OKC predicted what would happen to Russel Westbrook when the playoffs started and now there final hopes are starting to get dim despite winning the series with the Houston Rockets.

     Hopefully there are no health risks involved in this match up because the thought to losing Lebron James or any of the Big Three at this stage will be disastrous. We would see if the germs would indeed make the difference or like some other teams fail to show up in the play offs.
