Miami Heat Game Thread for March

Typical slow and sloppy Heat start

 

[Paolo305613]

The slow starts in the 1st/3rd quarters with Amare in the game continues.

Well, quite often they've had similar starts when he has come off the bench and Hassan has started

 

[bksballer89]

Defensive struggles continues. This team won't get out of the first round playing this kind of defense

 

[Paolo305613]

Much like last game the Heat look lifeless on both ends from start to finish. I guess Hassan not starting is to blame for that, huh?

 

[Paolo305613]

Not fond of it -- especially on the offensive end -- especially when we are struggling. Their offensive production is just far too iffy to be first off the bench and get such significant minutes at this point in their careers

 

[Paolo305613]

Some minutes before garbage time for Gerald and McRob might be helpful

 

[Paolo305613]

dumb foul there but no FTs so thats good. Down just 8 after 1. Hopefully that crap is out of their system now

 

[bksballer89]

This defense is embarrassing

 

[bksballer89]

This 8 man rotation is going to burn this team out.

 

[Paolo305613]

Slam!

 

[Paolo305613]

Tonight might not be the night Hassan should get all cute and want to attempt so many jumpers and instead work it inside more to do more damage

 

[Paolo305613]

2 fouls for Richardson. Lots of little fouls called on the Heat as usual

 

[Paolo305613]

And it leads to a run of course shortly after

 

[bksballer89]

These guys are not even contesting the Bulls shots

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat in penalty. This is their chance to get it together

 

[Paolo305613]

These guys are not even contesting the Bulls shots

Thats the frustrating part but not surprising - With Wade being banged up his effort is less than stellar so guess are following

 

[Paolo305613]

Everything is a foul against the Heat. Every....thing!

 

[Paolo305613]

Glad I called him out. Good defense there leads to points by him. More of that

 

[Paolo305613]

Wouldn't be surprised if he has the flu though more than anything -- he has that look in his face

 

[Paolo305613]

Dumb ass Whiteside there with that fade - missed a chance to make an easier shot and get us closer in game
