down 10 after 1 Heat unable to capitalize offensively on many occasions where the Pacers missed some good shots -

I take it you think thats why we are down 10?

Being down 12 within 3 minutes may cost us. Entertaining game, but we are not going to get it down shooting under 32% and going 0 for 6 from 3s. They are aligning themselves to give us the threes and we are also playing for them to make 3s and guess who is the better 3 point team. Plenty of time, but we are in foul trouble after 1. Feels like we have gotten every bad call against us.

 

[Andresrenee]

Well, interesting that Green is not playing in a game like this one until now.

 

[Andresrenee]

wow...0 for 9 from 3s......why...why....

 

[Andresrenee]

LOL....now we know why Green not in there....0 for 3 in 2 minutes...They are making us look horrible on offense, and we are not getting one call which is BS.

 

[bksballer89]

10 attempted 3's 15 minutes into the game lol

 

[Paolo305613]

No more 3 attempts in this game or at least this half - Then Green makes one as I say it

Costly tech there by TJ out of frustration - just get him out for now

 

[Paolo305613]

2 things - Wade should never settle for jumpers and should never fade away on shots he takes bad ones too much as it is -- he should do it even less when his team is struggling and losing

[Andresrenee]

Playing hard and keeping it close. Love the energy.

 

[Paolo305613]

down 3 at the half is a win of sorts for the Heat - have half time to get it together - I think the only adjustment that needs to be made in this game is by the officials - no?

 

[Andresrenee]

Down 3 after those first three minutes is not bad. Wonder if we will have the energy in the 2nd to win this one at home!

Agree. We did not get many calls in that one. They got the 50/50 balls.

But as I always say, the team that sets the tone as far as being physical and attacking on both ends, will and should get the benefit of the doubt in calls - The energy must pick up for the Heat and the calls should even out

 

[Paolo305613]

And just like that down 10 again - not having Hassan even on offense is hurting us right now - we have no inside presence to do damage in there - that along with our inability to hit 3's will lose us this game

 

[Andresrenee]

Well....just like that down 10.....we run a couple of nice plays for Bosh, but they clearly make adjustments on defense and get their shooters open on defense, we slack off, and all that hard work is gone again at the start of the quarter. 3 jumpshots and a 3 pointer...we go 1-4 and they hit their shots and there you go.
