Pat Riley likes Heat’s direction, calls Hassan Whiteside trade rumors ‘BS’

So 24 games into this 40-game barometer , I would say we are doing ok and slowly getting better. And Riles is right, about half the season is a better barometer to make an assessment.

ASK IRA: Can a case be made for more Haslem?

Heat going into this one having won 3 straight and TOR has lost 2 straight. Will be one of those interesting nights again

We matchup well with Toronto. We should win this one.

SI

Same starters - McRob and TJ inactive

 

[Paolo305613]

No Valanciuanas for the Raptors but still a quality team they have.

Heat playing well so far. If they can just stop Scola they will be fine

 

[Paolo305613]

3 turnovers from Wade already and complaining and looking frustrated early. Has to settle down and keep his cool and not lose it for stupid reasons

 

[Paolo305613]

3 early fouls for Winslow is no good. Udrih in early. The Dragic Game story line is developing

 

[Paolo305613]

Early Josh Richardson sighting - not sure its necessary

 

[Paolo305613]

Down 2 after not bad. Turnovers and too many fouls early along with letting Scola go off early probably the only difference in the game so far

Green for 3! and 1. The Raptors honor Shane Battier tonight this time
