tie game into the 4th should make things interesting

 

[Andresrenee]

Well...we lost the 3rd quarter again. Shooting over 55% but our horrible scheme and 3 point defense coupled with our point guards inability to not allow other's point guards to blow by ours has us in tied game at home against the Magic. Will be up to our big time players to win this one. Did not need to be this hard. Defensive scheme and unwillingness to play Napier could come back and burn us.

Defensive scheme and unwillingness to play Napier could come back and burn us.

Most laughable statement ever made

 

[Andresrenee]

ok...another missed wide open shot by Cole in the 3rd quarter down 3 and waiting to get Wade in...great coaching....

 

[Paolo305613]

Wade hasnt impressed much tonight so him sitting is probably for the better

 

[Andresrenee]

I guess we want to go 6 and 12 at home with losses against the likes of the Magic, Pacers, Bucks......I don't get it. Really.

Wade hasnt impressed much tonight so him sitting is probably for the better

Well his coaching decisions haver not impressed all season. Wade was shooting 50% and getting to the basket.

Chalmers and Cole again not shooting well, equal amount of turnovers as assists and poor defense, but still no Napier.

Hope we win in spite of our coaching.

 

[Andresrenee]

Another blow by Cole...at least he finally brought Wade into the game.....

 

[Paolo305613]

We will win because of our coaching

 

[Paolo305613]

Wade finally deciding to make himself useful - But its not quite crunch time yet - he can collapse at any moment

 

[Andresrenee]

We will win because of our coaching

In spite of it....would not be this close with better decisions.

LOL. Can't stand it can you? Wade 5 of 8 in 24 minutes with 17 points and 5 assists.....

I used to think Vucevic killed us because of his size but he's proving that to be false tonight because he's going to work on WHiteside

 

[Paolo305613]

In spite of it....would not be this close with better decisions.

Better, consistent execution from the guys on the court would help more

 

[Paolo305613]

its crunch time, Wade settles for a jumper - the collapse begins

 

[bksballer89]

I don't get Spo obsession with Cole.

He rather see Cole & Chalmers struggle instead of playing Napier or Ennis anymore

 

[Paolo305613]

Lots of FTs tonight but a lot of misses as well - but like I said thats mostly on Whiteside. If he can improve upon that and playing defense without fouling - he may start games soon enough

 

[Paolo305613]

Granger having one hell of a game - Another great coaching decision by the future hall of famer, Erik Spo to get him some playing time and sticking with it. The Heat handled his injury the right way and its paying off now

 

[bksballer89]

2 for 1 please

 

[bksballer89]

What a shit possession.

Not only did we not that a true 2 for 1 but Wade settled for a jumpshot when he should have run right by Vucevic
