on the bench, and likely done for night.

This would be most ideal but coming too little too late

Wade and Bosh are having a flashback and think Lebron is still around to save them.

At least when Bosh misses, they are good looks which he has a decent chance to make.
Wade, not so much.
He was great for the first 5 games and vs Philly.
Other then that, very pedestrian at best.
I love all he's done for this franchise, but he can't be any type of big investment heading into their future.

Wade is going to finish with as many points as turnovers on 1-9 shooting in 23 minutes. Wonder how long it has been since he has had a game like this if EVER in the NBA.

I expected to lose but not by this much

Funny how when I say this everyone gets all butthurt about it especially young andres and his other partner in crime - but you are on point. Bosh usually takes good shots , don't always fall - though last game he was aiming a lot of shots contributing to his misses -- Wade just puts up bad shots, much worse when he is struggling and the team is trailing.

Much like you said, contrary to what some butthurt little girl on this board thinks - I am thankful for all he's done for this franchise - but that was long ago. He is easily alongside KoMe Bryant among active players this season on the - All-Washed Up team

Not a betting man but they always seem rather accurate - depending on where you looked, the Heat were favored in this one by 1, or 1-point dogs, I even saw one somewhere that had us as 9-point dogs tonight which I think I saw seconds after it was made official who was and wasn't going to be available tonight

Hopefully this is a wake up call. Offense is really bad

Did we hire an offensive minded assistant lately? Remember that I suggested this last year. We are having real issues with our offense this year. Dragic and Wade not playing so good together.

Paolo305613 · Nov 25, 2015

Nice to see UD out there - should play more to show these guys what it is to play all out no matter what the circumstances are instead of just folding. The look on Hassan's face as he walks off the court is rather disturbing - looks like Andrea when she is about to cry herself to sleep because Wade didn't fondle her enough

We really haven't had a wake-up call loss/game to this point not even the loss to the T'Wolves could be considered as such - so, this was needed - And, in fact, the wake up they need to put it together. I know a lot of you don't think Deng brings much to the team but not having him out there certainly didn't help.

I agree about deng. He was really missed.

Andresrenee · Nov 25, 2015

I value Deng tremendously. He is a solid dude. It could be worse though. We could be the 76ers who were up 9 with 5 minutes to go and turned the ball over consistently and now about to lose AGAIN!!! At their coach has Noel in there who is -18 and is a turnover maching shooting 1-7. So it could definitely be worse.

Figured you would breakout this idiotic comment at some point -- took you long enough. Difficult for anyone to play well alongside Wade in the backcourt when he is out there putting up careless shots further disrupting the flow of the rest of the offense. Dragic has actually gotten better the last few games - I know your criteria for a good player is solely scoring - but if you had a brain you would know there is more to the game than what the stat sheet says - you have to watch the game to actually see how things play out - the guy has been taking great shots, unlike your boy toy Wade - they just haven't fallen.

Even though he, much like McRob aren't hitting the 3-shot at the rate we expected when we brought them here - at least in the case of Deng, his presence out there always seems to help the Heat when it comes to spacing and spreading the offense around to give defenses something to think about - I believe this was the main issue tonight , as I pointed out early in the game - the mention our broadcasters made about the Pistons D forcing the Heat into jumpers - that wasn't the case as much as the Heat settling led by Wade and simply not even decent spacing tonight.

Paolo305613 · Nov 25, 2015

Im done. Happy thanksgiving to all. Even you, Andrea. We are still 9-5, and didn't start the season 0-3. On to the rematch vs the NYK we go. Enjoy the football tomorrow boys and girl -- oh, and we must petition to keep the fucking Lions out of Thanksgiving football - they are going to stink it up again tomorrow.

Winderman's view: Pistons 104, Heat 81

Paolo305613 · Nov 26, 2015

ASK IRA: Did loss to Pistons expose previously masked Heat flaws?

This is one of those dumb overreaction questions after a loss. Win or lose, strengths of a team are exposed as well as weaknesses/

I think this discussion is worth having. 2 questions for the Heat fans who doesn't agree with every single decision the coaching staff makes.

1) What the hell does McRoberts bring to the table? IMO he sucks and does not warrant the minutes he is getting.

2) Is it not time for Amare to play more consistently with the struggles our bench is having scoring the ball? Pretty much if it is not Tyler or Gerald scoring, our bench scoring is trash.

This question is only for @TurnUpTheHeat @Flauge @Andresrenee @Heatles84 @avalon2423

Been on vacation this week. So haven't been checking the site.. so even though I am about 7 pages late, here's what I see.

1) I questioned the signing from the beginning. We paid him 6 million a season for guy whose career high was 9 points in 30 minutes. It's not a particular good use of money. He is a bad contract. But not a killer contract. I hope we can deal him.

2) Our bench is Gerald and Tyler. Amare hasn't been good in 2 years.

Third question for everyone.. Would it be worth it to deal Deng for a shooter? Deng is still a solid guy. But we NEED a shooter. With the emergence of Winslow.. I think we would be better served with Winslow starting a shooter coming in off the bench. Just my opinion.
