Game Thread: Miami Heat Game Thread for month of February

[Paolo305613]

Lets keep the good times rolling in February -- birthday month for yours truly.

We start the month tomorrow night with a home game vs the Hawks
Feb 4th vs the Sixers

Then we are off on a 4-game road trip to Minnesota, Milwaukee,Brooklyn and again against Philly

Return home for 1 game against Orlando before being back on the road to Houston before heading into the AS break.

Restart on the 24th, the day after my born day against the Hawks for the first night of a B2B, then at home vs Indy before ending the month on the road vs Dallas.

Its a 28 day month of February, so the month and schedule this month will fly by -- If the Heat can continue their good fortune by the end of this month -- we will be in decent shape for a true playoff run -- much to the dislike " Heat should tank for a high draft pick" crew

 

[Paolo305613]

No. This is a rather dumb question

Heat looking to trade Derrick Williams to make room for Okaro White

For the first time in a while.. it seems... the Heat will be able to go consecutive games without any new injuries

Thoughts on our chances tonight for anyone out there? This is by far one of the tougher games in this current stretch of games . Streak could be in serious trouble tonight

 

[Paolo305613]

Hassan first shot another missed jumper

 

[Paolo305613]

slow opening minutes again for Heat than a 9-2 run to give them an 11-7 early lead as they head into ATL first time out

 

[Paolo305613]

JJ making himself useful of late going inside more

 

[Paolo305613]

Slow early minutes for the Heat but closed out the quarter much better 29-22 into the second we go

 

[Paolo305613]

Still early, but Heat having no problem with ATL so far

 

[Paolo305613]

For the second game in a row, Goran causes the opponent to provide the Scrub Battier moment of the night by fouling him with the clock running down and shooting a 3

 

[Paolo305613]

Technical foul on Milsap at the end of the quarter -- FTs to be shot at start of second half. +15 for the Heat at the half. Couldn't ask for much else

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat shooting well from the land of 3 so far to make up for the lack of chances at the FT line

 

[Paolo305613]

1023 to go in the third and Hassan picks up just his first foul -- good discipline in that regard tonight

 

[Paolo305613]

Waiters blocks DH than steals Milsap for a score .. doing it on both ends

 

[Paolo305613]

Looks as though the Heat want to put this one away here in the 3rd quarter... I can dig it

Hassan eating shit on offense again
