How many games has Jimmy B. missed now this season?
Also, what's Miami's record during that time?

I dont know. It isn't about Jimmy. More about missing any combination of your top 3 guys. Granted this is better than missing jimmy/tyler but not by much. Assuming Jimmy injury isn't long term, they should be fine without Bam for a month but that trip in early January going to be a train wreck

Miami favored by 2.5 tonight....should be interesting

Not good. They need Kyle to avg close to 20

LOL @ Shaq chiming in on something he was always crying about whenever he got hacked...or even when he got called for fouling another player and expected no whistle.

Not buying it.

If it comes down to only the "superstars" getting calls...then the league will be in trouble.
Randle may not be at "superstar" status...but he is definitely a star nonetheless, and he's more than earned the respect to be given the benefit of calls more than he has been.
Fouls are fouls no matter who commits them or who gets fouled.
Call it evenly. Some of the refs just conveniently like looking the other way more times than they should be.
I'm not talking about simple innocent touch fouls here, I'm talking about getting held, bumped and blatantly fouled hard.
I'm just surprised he hasn't been T'd up more. That said, the technical he received late in the 4th qtr last night was also a bogus call...it was just unfortunate he lost his cool at that moment....and that ref can't be the deciding voice of any game's outcome especially when it's that close in crunch time.

On PTI today Wilbon said Randle had a right to say something to officials. Insane he took 20+ shots (he's not a jump shooter) and only went to the line once or twice. Wilbon also said he expects Randle to take least 14 FT's tonight.

Doesn't sound like Wilbon is being realistic

How do you figure? He's been covering the NBA for decades and isn't biased. It's not like he's a Knick fan.

Read what you said incorrectly

Nice to finally catch a break with injuries playing them with no Bam/Butler.....but that sucks.

Need to take advantage. Will say I wanted to see how Allen/Mobley did against Bam.

Cavs need to take advantage.

He meant tomorrow night, right?
Next game is Thursday against the Bulls at MSG.

Also...Randle takes a good amount of outside shots, but he also drives into the paint, down the baseline and into the lane quite a bit, where the fouls are more frequent...but too many times not called.

no

 

[Shanemansj13]

This is why they got Lowry…he’s gotta step up now

 

[Shanemansj13]

Terrible coaching job by Spo in the 1st half
