Diva Wade will sit out tonight. As expected , he wants to use the whole knee needs rest crap to justify having played a shitty game and having to sit out .

Has Michael Beasley fallen out of the Miami Heat's rotation? - Sun Sentinel

 

[Paolo305613]

Beas has been looking a bit disengaged lately - so the Heat are gonna continue to make him earn his time in the court . As they should .

 

[Paolo305613]

Toney Douglas not with the Heat and word is he will not join the team before the Heat return for Tuesday's home game against Boston.Birdman again out for Heat. Allen to start in place of Wade.

Chris Andersen, Dwyane Wade, Toney Douglas listed as inactive

534 consecutive double figure games for LBJ

The Scrub comes back down to earth and becomes useless on offense and a liability on defense

 

[Paolo305613]

UD playing better and doing the little things to help in the game off the bench better than The Scrub as a starter -- More reasons why UD should start at PF and the scrub should be at the end of the bench or at home.

 

[Paolo305613]

LBJ choking again, instead of finishing putting UD in a bad position

 

[Paolo305613]

What does LBJ do with the clock running down to end the game? run the clock down to the buzzer only to settle for a jump shot and miss to take the game into OT rather than take it inside and possibly create a foul. LBJ playing soft like LeQueen again

 

[BOTSLAYER]

gf time finally over, ran home in time to watch last 2 minutes of OT and Allen give himself a concussion.

 

[Paolo305613]

James: 34 points, 8 rebounds and 6 assists
Chris Bosh: 25 points and 7 rebounds
Ray Allen: 12 points and 9 rebounds
Mario Chalmers: 9 points and 5 assists
UD 6 and 10 in 30 minutes . Ray and UD set season highs in boards.

UD’s performance once again showed why he should be starting over The Scrub Shane Battier - Who was thankfully removed from the game early enough to allow the Heat to get the win. A scoreless night for the scrub and his 2 fouls as usual because he cant play D

 

[BOTSLAYER]

Let's be honest, Beasley should be starting over Battier and UD.

 

[Paolo305613]

Earlier in the year, that might have been true - But, Beas D has slipped a bit and so has his offense which is why he isnt a regular on the rotation the last few games. The approach with the Heat is to make Beasley earn everything - which is the right approach to take with him after they mishandled him the first time he was with the Heat a few years back.


Still, anyone should be starting over Shane - who came back to earth last night after a fluke of a game the night before.

Shane with a solid plus 5 and doing all the little things to help his team! Heat start winning once Shane back in line up!

 

[Paolo305613]

+/- is the most overrated and useless stat the NBA keeps track of. Shane does no little things to help the team. The only guys doing the little things on this roster are guys like Beasley, Haslem, Joel Anthony(when he was on the team) Chris Andersen, Ray Allen, Norris Cole - These guys are among the guys that do the little things to contribute to the Heat - which is why they are the top reserves on the team.

The Scrub does nothing special except commit countless bad fouls because he cant play defense. Not to mention he is a useless one-dimensional player on offense.
