D.Harvey - Looking at the Preseason Game against Miami and Detroit, what did you take away from it?

D. Goard Jr. - As long as they have the new version of "The Big 3" in there...it look like Miami is going to be a problem. The only thing I worry about is when they go up against teams with size: the Lakers, Celtics, Magic....

I think Lebron has the opportunity to average a triple double this season if he really wanted to.

Harvey - When we speak on the “New Big 3”, how different would that game have been had Darko not gone #2 to the Detroit in 2003?

Goard Jr. - Wouldn't have been much different. The game might have been a lil more competitive, but I don't know if the Pistons with Melo are better than the Nuggets with Melo

Harvey - Look at it this way, The pistons would still have Chauncey Billups, and cohesiveness would’ve been better and there wouldn’t be any guessing. Would Boston still be on Top of the East or would Boston and Miami be trying to catch the Pistons?

Goard Jr. - It would have been interesting to see, but the thing is...the Pistons didn't win because they had the best talent...they had the best defense. I don't know how Melo would've fit in. The Pistons had great chemistry and were unselfish. You better believe Melo would have to get his. Sometimes it's not all about talent.

Harvey - With that said, the Heat seem to have all the “Talent”. Where to do you put them in the League this year?

Goard Jr. - 3rd behind the Lake Show and the C's. I'm not too sure about Miami's depth and their bigs.
