Heat finally look ready to close this one out.

K.O. delivers what could be the T.K.O for the night

 

[Paolo305613]

For as well as the Heat have played to improve their record and their spot in the standings, cant help but think how much better they could be if they played true Heat defense on a consistent basis - injuries aside.

Good win.

Great game for James Johnson considering how long he's been out

Brace yourself for the news fellas. My guess is Waiters will eventually decide have season ending ankle surgery.

Will have to wait for final word - I certainly hope he can find a way to play through it and address it in off-season

Same but 2nd opinion never sounds good.

Derrick Jones JR sighting

 

[Paolo305613]

+1 after 1

 

[Paolo305613]

+6 at the half for Heat. A better game for TJ so far tonight

 

[Paolo305613]

The usual turnovers and a lack of FT attempts keeping the Heat from running away with this game so far

Heat +4 after 3

 

[Paolo305613]

Ellington with a Scrub Battier moment of the night and the NYK look to take lead now

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat meltdown coming if they dont stop settling for 3's

 

[bksballer89]

Terrible time to go this cold

 

[Paolo305613]

Classic terrible, untimely Richardson foul

 

[Paolo305613]

Terrible time to go this cold

Agreed - But when they are recklessly jacking up 3's as they are and insisting despite how cold theyve gotten from there - this happens

On a different note, good response here by the Heat to cut it to two but they must go in front again. Shouldnt be this close

 

[Paolo305613]

JJ cant guard Beasley but it doesnt surprise me

 

[bksballer89]

If you're not going to play Whiteside late in close games then what is the point of him on the roster?

 

[bksballer89]

Dude had a 10 point quarter and has yet to play in the 4th

 

[bksballer89]

Olynk can't play defense. Knicks can go to the pick and pop with Porzingis for the rest of the game.
