Game Thread: Miami Heat @ Brooklyn Nets Game Thread

Scoreless in 2nd OT without Lebron...

 

[Andresrenee]

Nice that we gave both the Knicks and the Nets hope for their season in a 30 hour period....could be a nasty first round matchup with either team...hope we have Shane and Rio back!

Idk why you guys getting so worked up over this....60% of our starters were out and lbj got fouled out. Last yr we were 24-12 through 36 games

 

[Andresrenee]

Horrible defense of late......need to get it together in FEbruary or March.....3-23 for Beasley, Allen and Mason...

 

[bksballer89]

My only with the team this yr is our defense have not been up to par.

Oh, someone mentioned earlier about the key guys out for the Heat tonight (Wade, Chalmers) - Chalmers is legit absence. Wade is just a soft bitch. But, fact is , the Nets are also without key guys and yet they found a way to out play the Heat for 58 minutes.

 

[Paolo305613]

Some blame on Spo for this one as well for not going even deeper to the bench and using James Jones and Udonis Haslem for a single minute in this one. When you are short-handed, you have to use all the guys you actually do have available regardless.

We really need rio back. Since he left only wade, bron, and cole been playing well

Not freaked out....just not good that bad habits are developing and that we are giving hope to Knicks and Nets and that Indiana gaining some distance in the standings for what could be critical home court. We will be fine but if we did not freak out then why watch until April. Also, fun to see Paula recognize the value go Battle!!

How did Bosh ever average 24 ppg with the Raptors?????

5 minute overtime without Lebron and Bosh can't even score a single point

09-10 there were games where Bosh was getting to the line 20 times in some games! I know in Miami Bosh's role is dminished but in games where Wade isn't playing can we at least see Bosh step up as a true number two!? Most of the time it just seems like he's out there and if the mid range opens he'll hit it...other than that he's just out there.

Its not worked up, just terrible shooting and defense as of late. Bosh back to his soft soft ways of settling for jumpers. This is another game where he should have been attacking the rim with no lopez. Why didnt we see haslem or JJ? Ray allen shot 1-12 tonight.. spo needs to have taken him out.

True...they are missing their best player for the year and have injuries. We are choosing to rest Wade...

I'm not worried about indy. Once we stay around 3 games behind them we will be in striking distance. We don't play til Wednesday so hopefully a few practices can improve the defense

They don't get him the ball and shots in Miami. He was 4-8 with 10 and 10. See Portland to what the man can do when they run set plays for him. Ray had 13 shots and Beasley had as many as Bosh....on Spoles and James...

 

[bksballer89]

Bosh been shitty since the Portland game

 

[avalon2423]

I still think Miami signs Bynum this weekend.

Those guys are aggressive while bosh is not. When wade is out he should be attempting 15 shots at least

I would not do it....high risk and I am not sure high reward...

Come on..you know hoops...unlike Allen, James and Wade, you have to run plays and get Bosh the ball. Too much hero ball of late..

I'm not worried about Indy either. Their fans are already celebrating and popping champagne over being #1 in the power rankings. Our first two final appearances we were the #2 seed so I'm not too concerned about the regular season records. Miami can beat anybody on the road.
