Need more from TJ as well on offense - all that hustle and what not is great -- but need more from him offensively especially on a night where he is being counted on more due to circumstances

Well a technical for TJ bad timing for that - but he's been fishing for that all game - doing a lot of complaining and strong reactions

Well - we play a quality opponent and once again get crushed in 3rd. Can't play the strong Nuggets every night. When you look at our plus/minus on a cumulative basis at almost 40 games, we are just barely in plus territory. Dangerously telling....injury bug now hitting so let's see what we got this week.

2nd half is going how I expected the game to go.

Hard to beat this team in this building when you're missing several players

These guys really need to toughen up and play through injuries.

Winning on the road is hard enough. Winning on the road missing 3 to 4 rotation players in damn near impossible

This game is basically done with - the Heat just don't have enough for a comeback again similar to the other night. This road trip mercifully comes to an end with the Heat banged up. At least it wasn't all a collapse on the road trip.

Hopefully we can get somewhat healthy before next game and bounce back.

Ive said it often. I remember your reply being " they don't need to play through nothing" LMFAO

They need to learn how to play through injuries and adverse moments in games and they just don't know how to do that well enough -- it doesn't help when Spo is calling constant timeouts babying them through games though he hasn't done it tonight - he's done it a lot on this trip.

The best thing to do now is probably to wave the white flag and rest our key guys to get ready for next game

Not best-case scenario or ideal situation for Heat after a road trip like this and banged up like this

When a game gets away from you the way this one did for the Heat, it goes to show you how you just don't have enough on a given night and that was the case for the Heat tonight - Just not much out of anyone outside of the usual suspects. That sense of " what could be" with those guys we have out due to injury lives on for another night

The points from TJ tonight is what we need from him, the turnovers and technical/complaining is what we can do without

Face it, Bird, Amare, UD and McBob are total garbage.

Not as mad about this loss as much as others considering the circumstances with the injuries and the toll its taken on the team on this trip.

Not much time between now and next game tuesday( front end of a back to back) but must get as healthy as we possibly can before than - correct the things you can correct that went wrong on this trip outside of the injuries and move on.

We all knew this was going to be the rough patch of the season - it only looks worse because of injuries and giving up some games earlier in the season. Now, its just time to regroup and move on from this in the best possible way.

The Utah game killed this trip. I think 2 weeks ago if you told us were going to lose to GSW, OKC, and LAC we would all be ok with that. Without our 3rd quarter collapses in Utah and LA this would have been a solid 3-3 or 4-2 trip
