The star-studded Heat, however, are a tougher sell in Orlando.
“I’m in that one percentile,” Magic general manager Otis Smith said on Monday. “The game isn’t won on paper; you still have to play the game.”
While Smith respects the three All-Stars that have created grouped together with the Heat, he is confident that Orlando's collection of players will be more than good enough to compete with Miami and any other team in the league.
“They (Miami) have a good three, I have a good 12,” Smith said. “We're as deep as any other team in the league, probably deeper. I probably have 12 guys on our team that can start for our team or any of team. They have a very good basketball team in Miami, but until we start playing the game on paper, and not the court, they’re just a team on paper.”
