Heat start this game 6th seed - lets see what this afternoons adventure brings

 

[Paolo305613]

Good start for Heat

 

[bksballer89]

Good start for Hassan

 

[Paolo305613]

TJ Finishes with authority to give the Heat a 4 point lead after 1

 

[Paolo305613]

5 point lead my bad

 

[Paolo305613]

+2 after a gift from the refs after they review what shouldve been just a review for a potential shot clock violation instead award the Heat and Hassan a foul. A break for the Heat before the break.

Now, the only mysterious that remain: Whether or not the Heat can find a way to take over in this game. And how many minutes Hassan plays/earns in the second half -- AND maybe, how big a meltdown some folks will have if he doesnt play their desired minutes.

 

[Paolo305613]

And maybe first will come the Heat meltdown before the fans meltdown over Hassans lack of PT?

As E-Reid said, heat are taking some unnecessarily difficult shots - they do that way too much - gotta settle back in after this timeout

 

[Paolo305613]

Not a lot of rhythm or momentum for the Heat in that quarter -1 after 3

 

[Paolo305613]

Sensing that Heat meltdown coming. They just cant get into a rhythm on offense - forget defense - thats a lost cause at this point

 

[bksballer89]

3's aren't working. Let's see if Spo has any interest in winning this game

Whiteside needs to play in this 4th

 

[bksballer89]

And that's why you need Whiteside in the game.

That type of unacceptable/lazy defense by Olynk in the 4th quarter of a close game is bad.

 

[bksballer89]

Really about to lose to a team who are 3-16 on the road and are playing without their best player

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat continue to settle for 3's - they deserve to lose

 

[bksballer89]

Tyler Johnson has no business in this game

 

[Paolo305613]

That type of unacceptable/lazy defense by Olynk in the 4th quarter of a close game is bad.

The same type of defense we have seen from Hassan on occassions, too

 

[Paolo305613]

Hassan subbed out - uh oh... here it comes

 

[bksballer89]

Olynk not playing well today and is way too small for Favors but yeah let's bring him back in lol

 

[Paolo305613]

Jazz may look to deliver the dagger after this timeout

 

[bksballer89]

Settling for 3's when you're 1) losing late in the 4th & 2) shooting like shit from 3 is so stupid

Surprised you are not watching your Saints take a 14-3 lead! Heat reverting to form after some victories versus meh teams. A loss today would hurt. Dragic not shooting well hurts the team. Not sure what Spolestra is doing with Hassan.
