Barkley: Heat have 'so many holes,' picks Bulls in East - Sun-Sentinel

  Amid the Miami Heat's 5-5 run over the past 10 games, exactly what might Charles Barkley have to say on TNT's pregame show before Thursday's nationally televised game against the Chicago Bulls at the United Center?

   Probably something like this:

   "I think that LeBron James has to play at a Michael Jordan-type level every single night because that team has so many holes on it. . . . I said this earlier in the year, they're only going to go as far as LeBron James takes them."

   That's what Barkley said Wednesday on the Chicago ESPN Radio affiliate, predicting the Bulls would eliminate the Heat in the Eastern Conference finals.

    "LeBron James is the best player in the NBA. If he doesn't play at a crazy level and make those guys better -- [Mario] Chalmers, Joel Anthony, [Udonis] Haslem -- if he doesn't get those guys off, they can't win. I don't think he gets enough credit for that.
