Game Thread: Miami Heat Game Thread for December/January

Good start for the Heat. Dragic making plays - the ball movement is precious

 

[Paolo305613]

3 point deficit - that basket and sequence by OKC there is a good illustration of what the Heat need to improve in this game to get back in the lead and some cushion - match OKC's energy in each and every play on both ends of the court. Thats been inconsistent for us so far

 

[Paolo305613]

Down 2 into the 4th. We have ourselves a game still

 

[bksballer89]

Only down 2

 

[Paolo305613]

Will the miss FTs come back to bite?

 

[bksballer89]

Neither am I Ethan

 

[bksballer89]

This is a good game

 

[Paolo305613]

Im sensing that if the Heat can put a few buckets in a row here and a stop or two - OKC will become frustrated to the point it backfires - lets hope

 

[bksballer89]

Surprised they kept Green in over Hassan but OKC went small so it makes some sense

 

[Paolo305613]

Its take over time

 

[Paolo305613]

Defense is going to win this game -. We aren't going to get the breathing room in this game I was hoping for

 

[bksballer89]

Why is Green on Durant instead of Winslow? What sense does that make?

 

[Paolo305613]

But there is no defense for OKC simply being able to knock down tough shots. Not going to help our chances

 

[bksballer89]

Let's not put our best defender on one of the 3 best scorers in the league.............that makes sense

 

[Paolo305613]

A defense stop is a must now. It can't be optional for the Heat any longer

 

[Paolo305613]

There is a stop. Now get a good shot and win this shit. Maybe someone other than Wade unless he drives in and creates contact no jumpers

 

[Paolo305613]

Nice drive in. Now needs to make FTs

 

[Paolo305613]

One more defensive stop PLEASE!!!

 

[Paolo305613]

DEFENSE WINS IT!

 

[bksballer89]

BIG FUCKING WIN
