Game Thread: Miami Heat month of December Game Thread

Turnovers again a problem.

Despite the good night from 3, the Heat once again just attempted way too many from there and didnt get to the line enough nor were they efficient enough the few times they got there -- as usual.

You just cant afford to have these problems when the defense is as bad as its been for the Heat.

At some point in the season the Heat have to improve upon one of these things if not all of them if they want to at least want to put up an actual fight in these games.

A late run for the Heat but it will probably be ended after this timeout with a dagger run from Spurs

Yep. Not too mad though.

If we play like this then we should win the next 2 on the road

 

[bksballer89]

The time is now to make a run and get a few games over .500

9 of our next 12 are against teams below .500

Also Whiteside should be back some point during this stretch.

I also think this new starting lineup would be more successful than the previous one. Only concern I have with this lineup is James Johnson foul issues.

Also, Dragic picked a wrong time to schedule. He's been really bad over the last week excluding the Warriors game

Heat defense is shit again to start

 

[Paolo305613]

-2 after 1 and foul trouble for the defense-less Richardson

 

[Paolo305613]

-3 at half for Heat as the defense continues to be shit. If they can fix the defense, they should be alright to pull off a fairly comfortable win

 

[Paolo305613]

+3 after 3 still to close for comfort

I agree with Ira. Olynk struggles at C shows exactly why he should play with Whiteside once he returns

 

[Paolo305613]

+10 early in the 4th and the Heat might finally be ready to put this one away

I dig it

JJ doing some not so JJ things and dunking the basket like a true PF and sealing the deal for the night.

Good bounce back win for Heat - now on to Memphis

Another team we should beat. This game is the start of a favorable portion of the schedule. Need to go on a little run

 

[Paolo305613]

-2 after 1 - lots of back and forth thus far until the Heat find their way

 

[Paolo305613]

+3 at the half. Lets finish it

 

[Paolo305613]

+10 for Heat after 3 - hope they close it out soon into the 4th

 

[Paolo305613]

Still early in quarter but that TJ 3 may have been the dagger for the night

 

[bksballer89]

Now that Tyler 3 was probably the dagger

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat came out and did what they had to do. THats it

Maybe I'm too observant but Waiters just doesn't seem like a team guy. This is the 2nd time in the last 2+ weeks where the team is winning a game in the 4th and while the the rest of the guys on the bench are involved and having fun, he is just sitting there isolated like someone stole his lunch.
