Rothstein is the man!

Dragic likely to play tonight.

Still holding on to hope that Waiters returns early on in 2017

 

[Paolo305613]

 

[Paolo305613]

At least Goran is back

 

[Paolo305613]

2 very typical weak passes from Winslow and Batum doing what he does best in playing the passing lane creating one turnover and almost another -- Goran is back - no need to have anyone beyond him and TJ even attempting to set our offense.

 

[Paolo305613]

Down 1 as we head into this first timeout -- not bad so far - lets see how long it last

 

[Paolo305613]

Batum vicitimizes another wannabe Heat ball handler who shouldn't be handling the ball too much in James Johnson.

 

[Paolo305613]

Then JJ misses two FTs to keep our misery at the line alive

 

[Paolo305613]

The Heat had their typical lackluster stretch on both ends of the court towards the end of that quarter, thankfully not bad enough to put us so far behind - only a 2 point deficit into the second quarter... in it for now...

 

[Paolo305613]

E-Reid and Florentine are correct this time - Willie Reed having himself quite a game already doing the little things out there

 

[Paolo305613]

Hassan Whiteside is on OUR team, yet Charlotte benefits from getting second and third chances on that sequence of rebounds... of course

 

[Paolo305613]

Another game of Hassan aka Franchise Player having his head up his ass

 

[Paolo305613]

At least Richardson has it going early on

 

[Paolo305613]

Classic JJ turnover again.

 

[Paolo305613]

7 point lead into the half thanks to the TJ 3 at the buzzer. Lets see if the Heat can build on this, or if another disappointing collapse occurs

 

[Paolo305613]

Such a winslow turnover there -- turns into 3 points for CHA

 

[Paolo305613]

more CHA flopping and more refs falling for it

 

[Paolo305613]

now a deficit of 2 for Heat -- the collapse may be underway now
