Wade decided to show up finally?

Better late than never

Calling him out worked. Perfect

 

[bksballer89]

WHAT A WIN!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Paolo305613]

The Heat will steal this one. The comeback kids! We gotta take it!

 

[Andresrenee]

YES.....MERRY X-MAS all and HAPPY NEW YEAR! SO glad we won. Congrats on the win bksballer.....

@Andresrenee you can stay bro. I can't deal with talking to Paolo alone for 2 weeks

 

[Andresrenee]

SEE YA NEXT YEAR!!!

 

[Paolo305613]

The Heat really need to make use of this momentum. Will be a tough opponent on second night of b2b and more so after a game like tonight.

 

[bksballer89]

Winslow made crucial 3s. That need to happen more frequently

 

[Paolo305613]

The Heat have lost lots of games like this and they have been demoralizing for a while - what does a win like this do for them?

Winderman's view: Heat 100, Grizzlies 97

Some of you seem quite fond of advanced stats so maybe you know the answer to this or know where to find it. But, What are Miami's FT numbers when they are in the penalty vs their FT numbers when not in the penalty? Id like to know what they are as far as makes and attempts and where that ranks them if possible. I get frustrated we often can't close games or get back into games because of our FT shooting in those particular situations.

 

[Paolo305613]

I said the other night the key to a Heat victory comfortably or not, is greatly possible if they go 20/20 at least 20 FT attempts/20 assist it was 23/18 in favor of FT attempts after none in the first quarter

Lets see how they come out tomorrow

I'll be here.
Not sure how we pulled that one out, but I'm glad I didn't leave early.
Honestly, the game winning shot wasn't even a good one and we'd all be bitching if it hadn't have went it....
but I'll take it.

Beasley would be nice but the Heat need to focus on getting a 3 point specialist. That should be their #1 goal

He's not any type of cure all but he's a better option then a few others on our roster.

What a game last night. I DVRed it and watched a most of it this morning while getting ready for work. As happy as I am about this win, I am really beginning to think Dragic was a 90 million dollar mistake.

Dragic is not the issue. Spo is. You don't sign a guy to a 5 yr/90 mil deal and not try to accommodate him. The style of offense need to change a little bit. Dragic is and has never been a walk the ball halfcourt offense player. He is a player who likes to run. There is no reason why should not try to run a little bit more and play at a faster pace to accommodate him. The Heat coaching staff and front office always will be stubborn.

Apparently there is a vine out there that shows Whiteside throwing a cup down and looking upset as Dwade hits tge game winner. Rest of bench is celebrating. Have not scene it yet...at work. But I want to see it.

I got to look for it. I doubt he's back next season. He is a head case
