Game Thread: Miami Heat Game Thread- April

[Andresrenee]

Only a clueless idiot would suggest we would lose a player(s) over a single game or situation in a game - even if that is the case, then good riddence to whoever those players are because that would just show they are guys that this organization doesnt need to be associated with

Maybe this organization does not need Spolestra. LOL. Just saying. Perhaps, time for the front office to step up and say we don't have enough Spolestra, we are going after Donavan and we will sit Wade, Dragic and Whiteside and play to retain our bottom ten pick which is still in reach.

A real Miami coach is in Coral Gables. See what that man did when his team lost two of its best players.

Earliest Spo get fired is the summer of 2017

Pretty much the only we make the playoffs if we run the table after Indy kick our ass tomorrow.

38 wins should be enough....39 should be a lock for the playoffs

Other than being stupid and drawing up a last play chance for Diva to decide the game - another thing to be critical of Spo about is not playing Beas a single minute tonight - if your going to give TJ any PT you have to go to Beas at least once

Oh btw, even though he was ineffective in minimal playing time, and probably would have still been with more PT, the Heat did have to go without Andersen for a long period of time - Just another injury the Heat coaching staffhas had to deal with this season - but kids like Andres fail to understand thats a factor to how coaches approach a game

So serious question....how many of you think we can get the Pacers on the road on the second night of a back to back after such a collapse with the emotional return of Paul George in the balance? And before you answer, remember that we have Spolestra calling plays and no Bob Mac. or Ronstein there to correct him!!LOL!!

So you think we have our biggest winning streak of the season to end it with Toronto and Chicago battling for seeding? I think we have to beat the Pacers tomorrow to make the playoffs. We have to beat them and the Hornets.

We're losing tomorrow.

Indy is a bad match-up for us. The only games I thought we had a shot at this week were the Spurs (considering how well we been playing @ home) and tonight vs Detroit.

We need to win 4 of our final 5 games at least. 38 wins should give us a decent shot while 39 get us in

Unless he gets that extension he is more than worthy of.

Much like tonight, little Andrea has suggested many stupid things this season about the Heat - but he has stopped short of suggesting the Heat should be contracted from the NBA - though that wouldnt be such a bad thing...

Toronto is a shit team. They been a shit team for the last 2 months so yeah I think we can beat Charlotte, Orlando, Toronto, & Philly.

Chicago will be tough but with the way we have played at home since March, I think we can win 3 of 4 on our final homestand

I disagree here,
All the other teams have 'on paper' much tougher schedules and we have the tiebreaker vs Boston and Brookkyn.
What probably decides who gets in or not is which opponents rest players on which nights.

We also prob don't have Bird or Whiteside tomorrow.
I think he ripped his stitches open.

Indy schedule is pretty easy. The other 3 schedule is tough but if Indy beat us tomorrow, I don't see them ended up with more than 2 losses the rest of the way.

Yep...perhaps, Spolestra needs to bring back some of those experienced coaches back to help him not blow huge leads in the 4th and call some set plays. Embarrassing really....losing to the Bucks and Pistons the way we did down the stretch and in critical, critical games just shows how poor this team is coached on offense.

Yeah because its the inexperienced coaches the ones constantly SITTING OUT games , settling for jumpers to decide games, not getting back on defense

LOL. The Man averaging over 21 points per game, leading the team with almost 5 assists per game, and the man shooting close to 50%? You are clueless.

 

[Paolo305613]

Spo says Birdman missed rest of game after being kicked in foot - status unknown for tomorrow - so the potential of the Heat being down another man exist tomorrow but Andrea will fail to realize again how much of a factor that is to how coaches approach a game

We have had epic collapses against two worse teams than Toronto. Remember the Bucks were on a six game losing streak when we had our collapse against them. Also, the Pistons were coming off a back to back and a blow out. The Raptors will destroy us.

 

[Paolo305613]

bk, thanks again for the fantasy baseball invite - going to be fun. count on me being dedicated to the league no matter the results. Marlins season should be fun - no divas on the team. Hope we can get the Marlins message board going this season

Both were on the road. The Heat been a terrible road team since February. We play much better at home.

Watch basketball please.

Really....he had to have Tyler Johnson in the game when he had Chalmers, Walker and Deng available? Great approach to the game. Great approach to the game in terms of the way he calls plays.....great approach..

Is it possible the kid is blind? probably doesnt have access to a tv or able to really watch a game? you have to consider the idea given how much garbage he talks

I do and did. We looked great at home against the Spurs...We are reeling dude...why don't you watch some basketball? We have been slaughtered in 2 of our last 3. Lost 3 in a row and have injuries mounting. And Wade has called out the coach for his offensive system...
