Game Thread: Miami Heat Game Thread for December/January

Well....at least Wade is not hurt bad, but this one is sleeping away. Green with bad and lazy defense. Little offense and the home team now up 7. Let's see what we have left. At least Dragic is back in there. No more outside shots for Winslow....1 for 16. Wow...don't think Paolo would shoot that bad.

We have a chance. Need some stops

Winslow can't play offense....wow.

 

[Paolo305613]

LOL.....we defend the three so well so we will beat the Warriors and Clippers no problem...

I have hopes that the Warriors will want a rest day for some of their guys when we play them and we catch a break of sorts

 

[bksballer89]

LOL.....we defend the three so well so we will beat the Warriors and Clippers no problem...

We actually have one of the best 3 PT DEF in the league. Only the Knicks, Warriors, and Spurs defend the 3 ball better than we do

 

[Paolo305613]

Were not beating GSW or OKC and we most likely don't beat the Clippers either. Lose this game and 2-4 is almost a lock

Its the Heat, nothing is for certain. Nothing

 

[Andresrenee]

Whiteside playing ball now......and at least 1 of 2. Need the D to step up.

 

[bksballer89]

They're in the penalty. Get aggressive please

 

[Andresrenee]

Johnson outplaying Wade tonight....wow....That might be the ball game. Down 8.

 

[bksballer89]

This game is over

 

[bksballer89]

The only reason I kind of give them a pass is because not only are we on the 2nd night of a B2B but this is also their 5th game in 7 nights

 

[Paolo305613]

Green and Winslow don't need to play the rest of tonight -- Down hill since Wade came back in --

But, really, if the Heat lose - which they deserve to at this point - it won't be because of Dragic or whatever the fuck was said about him here earlier - or Wade having been injured those couple of minutes earlier - this game started going down hill when the Heat again failed to build on their lead early in the second quarter - they could've settled this one then and be fine now but they've let the Jazz stay in this game for way too long - The Heat don't have it in them to come back and win another close one

 

[Andresrenee]

Wade 3 for 13 and letting a first time starter outplay him tonight. Such is life. 2nd night of back to back...3 Awful quarters of offense. I swear, Spolestra can not adjust.

 

[Paolo305613]

Wade doesn't need to play either especially if he is going to keep settling for jumpers at this point - at least we are in the penalty but we won't do shit with it

 

[bksballer89]

This team can't make anything

 

[Paolo305613]

Wade 3 for 13 and letting a first time starter outplay him tonight. Such is life. 2nd night of back to back...3 Awful quarters of offense. I swear, Spolestra can not adjust.

And neither can the players on the court and thats the ultimate problem

 

[Andresrenee]

Why is Spolestra not running plays for just Dragic and Bosh who are actually shotting well.....dang.....we just give it back to him so he can shoot another brick. Horrible offense in the 2nd half.

 

[bksballer89]

Pretty bad time to miss both fts

 

[Paolo305613]

Hayward is a solid player no doubt but the Heat again letting a guy look like an HOF when they shouldn't

 

[Andresrenee]

Wade with Kobe like numbers tonight.....LOL. 3 for 17. Wow...just wow. 22 of 33 for Bosh, Dragic and Green but we will keep feeding Wade.

 

[Paolo305613]

How far down will the computers drop us in the rankings with a loss tonight andres?
