Game Thread: Miami Heat Game Thread for month of January

[Malibu]

Man just like LeBron James most of the Heat fans left. I see two real Heat fans around at least. Funny how the Bandwagon Heat fans have left the building. Go Lakers!!! Peace.

Heat’s Dion Waiters trying to work his way back after groin injury | Heat Zone

Considering the scrubs we have now as options in the lineup in McGruder and Richardson -- Waiters should've been back starting since he returned

Well, it didn't happen on game day - but close enough - we get Hassan back tomorrow potentially -- and someone else goes down -- Thankfully its just Richardson which only hurts us depth wise -- he's done little else otherwise.

Mistake on McGruder IMO - He has a lot of learning to do and could use D-League time if we weren't so banged up and having the season we are having with the small expectations.

1. At full strength, which isn't happening the rest of this season, we weren't going to be very good.

2. Richardson has been injured/banged up almost the entire season, so in theory you are correct ( he's done little) but he's one of the most talented players on the current roster.

We just all have to put this season into proper perspective.
Bosh ( not his fault) forced this wheel in motion.

No doubt the talent is there. I am not questioning that at all -- the same is the case with Winslow and several of the young guys we are playing significant minutes. I am talking in terms of production -- its not there like it needs to be irregardless of the expectations of this season.

Agree, but again, with all the injuries, different player combinations, lack of practice time, etc.., etc.. there's just no way to get max production from anyone.

Negative MRI on the left foot of Josh Richardson - he will be day to day according to reports. So all is not lost with him -- except his shot.

 

[Paolo305613]

The Heat could potentially lose another prospect to another team that will probably cause havoc against us if he is around for them when we play against them -- meanwhile, we extended a guy in McGruder who has yet to prove much of anything

 

[Paolo305613]

Matt Moore is crushed of course -- And then our guys like idiots retaliate and get flagged.

In comes TJ Yates -- this should get even more fun now!

 

[Paolo305613]

Matt Moore is back -- oh well, there is that

 

[Paolo305613]

Oops posting the wrong stuff on the wrong thread again -- The Heat have their own problems. My bad

 

[Paolo305613]

Of course a penalty

 

[Paolo305613]

And of course he catches that

Unfortunate for Babbitt as he had been hitting the 3's a little better of late

 

[Paolo305613]

A much better lineup at least with the McGruder hole still there

Lol @ a Lakers fan calling any fan base bandwagoners, while you root for the broncos nonetheless
