Miami Heat Game Thread for February

[Heatles84]

If MRI came back negative -- no reason for him not to play even if its in a limited role but such is life with Wade -- At least Hassan is back from suspension and I am sure he will come out fired up to get back on track

Prior to last night, Wade missed two games (one was because his kid was in the hospital). I'm not going to get too riled up about him missing tonight. Be cautious.

The Heat will need a good second quarter from start to finish to have momentum to do their damage in the third - often, the struggles in the 3rd are due to late lapses on one or both ends during the second quarter. Some idiot in here will instead look to blame the coach rather than look at the facts of the situation.

If the Heat keep this lead in double digits into half time - they will have no problem winning this game and guys will be able to get their rest early

Richardson playing better

 

[Heatles84]

Nice 3 Richardson!!!

Richardson playing better

Hopefully going forward he happens to be one of those 2nd round productive players like Rio was.

 

[Paolo305613]

What say you of the EJ comparison which I think is more so to do with how they look not necessarily their game

 

[Paolo305613]

Hassan no regard for anything on that play. And-1

 

[Heatles84]

Good job Whiteside! Man strength!

 

[Paolo305613]

McRob connecting well with Hassan in this one

 

[bksballer89]

I'm very impressed.

 

[Heatles84]

Looking at McRoberts on the 2nd night of a b2b. It looks like his struggles were due to not being aggressive, which CB called him on. Like what he's bringing to this team so far.

Whiteside with 10 and 13 in 13 minutes off the bench.....It's only the 2nd quarter

 

[Heatles84]

Whiteside making that case for a contract extension. If he could just do this everyday...without the bonehead moves.

Dude's going to get 20 rebounds this game.

 

[Heatles84]

Good lord Hassan. Nice block!

 

[bksballer89]

That lead got cut down a little too fast for my liking. Would like us to keep it at 15 heading to the half

 

[Heatles84]

C'mon Whiteside, this is your 14th chance from me. Please don't fuck this up from here on out. Loving the play from the Heat, and yeah Bk I'd like to have a 15 point lead at half.

 

[Paolo305613]

59-44 at the half. Great game thus far

Mission Accomplished?

 

[Heatles84]

Mission Accomplished?

Since the Bosh news, if you would've told me that we would beat Atlanta on the road and have a 15-point lead on Washington at the half, I'd tell you to quit smoking, Paolo. This has been a delight. Man I'm all back in on Whiteside....please don't fuck this up.
