Game Thread: Miami Heat Game Thread - March

Help what happened.....saw that Spolestra's brilliant move of inserting Beasley backfired but what else happened?

Blaming Spo for that is beyond retarded. A 6'9 player should always win the tip over PG. Please stop with that garbage

It was a scramble play. Everyone was chasing the ball, Milwaukee got to it before we did and found the open man.

I don't think I'm watching tv the rest of the night. I can't remember the last time I been this mad over a game.

We were up 85-71 nearly halfway through the 4th. You can not lose that game ever

 

[bksballer89]

Now Boston is a must win tomorrow or else this is going to be a 0-4 roadtrip.

5 straight road losses now.

Beasley being in there didnt cost the game - this game was lost long before that when the Heat failed to take advantage of being in the penalty early and your boy Wade not being able to resist not being able to play like a Diva for another night - Had he not played so much hero ball, we would have won this game - A few games back I gave him props for changing his approach and playing the role of facilitator instead of trying to carry the load especially when he doesnt have it - he has gotten away from that and its made him very ineffective recently and we have lost 2 in a row along the way.

Reality is, the Heat are a borderline playoff time this season, 7th or 8th seed at best - 6th seed is no longer an option

 

[bksballer89]

If we lose tomorrow we could be back in 9th place if Charlotte beats Brooklyn also.

Really can't afford to give games away at this point of the season

Have you not been watching the Heat this season? Or even over the last few years? They , the players on the court, especially close games, where we put the ball in the hands of diva -always find a way to lose a game they shouldnt lose. The Heat lead in that stat and by a wide margin

 

[Paolo305613]

This is what happens when you give up so many games you shouldnt have earlier in the season though

 

[bksballer89]

Blaming Wade for this game is even dumber than blaming Beasley.

What imaginary hero ball did Wade play tonight? He took 14 shots

Are you dumb? He's playing hero ball by attempting 14 shots for the game?

 

[Paolo305613]

As always, Diva Wade will get a free pass in here for his scoring , but tonight was yet another 5 turnover game for him - team high. For all the good he does, he always finds a way to be a helping hand in a Heat loss

 

[Andresrenee]

As good as the Cleveland and Portland wins were then this one was probably as bad. Likely lost the sixth seed and gave the Bucks life. Not sure we will recover tomorrow against the Nets after this one. This was a blown 16 point lead with less than 10 minutes to go against an offensive challenged team. We are the cure for what ails team's in the NBA now as we just gave a game to the Bucks after they had lost 6 straight. I lost reception and all I saw was a Beasley turnover on the play by play. Did not see the end as I lost reception again. However, unbelievable that this game was lost. There is a reason Beasley was playing in China. Wade's Eastern conference player of the week went to his head and Spolestra seemed to forget to call plays. Dragic was 7 for 12 and did not get plays for him in the 4th when we were in the bonus. Assume you guys still feel good about the playoffs....playoffs...in Jim Mora's voice.

 

[bksballer89]

Blaming Wade in a game he took 14 shots in is so incredibly dumb.

There's no way in hell you're over the age of 15. No way possible.

You're extremely stupid if you are.

First time I ever seen the best player on a team get accused of playing hero ball when he attempted 3 less shots than his season avg. 14 shots is nothing.

Guess Dragic was playing hero ball as well since he attempted 12 shots right? Same goes for Deng with his 13 attempts right?

Coming from a guy that is surely sucking on Diva's dick - of course you would come to Diva's defense

The number of shots is irrelevant - he played hero ball - again, the number of shot attempts is irrelevant, its about the quality of some of those shots in some situations . He missed a key FT down the stretch and went 1/3 from 3, he has no business shooting from 3 but he always wants to be a hero because he cant admit to be a ZERO at this point in his career.

Maybe we will find a way to lose tomorrow night as well and get closer to this misery ending and just another day closer to Diva's retirement

Unlike Diva, Deng and Dragic actually take quality shots

 

[bksballer89]

Brining up Wade turnovers as a reason for losing is ridiculous. How many turnovers did he have in the 4th?

How many turnovers did he have during the Bucks 18-3 run to win the game?

For the record Wade had 0 turnovers during the Bucks run. Dragic had 1 which was 1 of only 2 turnovers during that period.

Turnovers were obviously not the reason the Bucks came back.

 

[bksballer89]

How many 3's did he take when the Heat were up 85-71 until the end of the game? Your lame arguments are so ridiculous and stupid because the heat were 14 with under 7 to go in the 4th. All the stuff you're crying about did not happen in the 4th. You're blaming Wade for nonsense. The Heat were dominating the game with his 5 turnovers and his 33% from 3 through 41 minutes of play.

Anyone on here who dares come on here blaming any individual player should be banned from this board for a week because you clearly know absolutely nothing about basketball and we don't need your ignorance on here. When you go 5+ minutes without scoring a single point and alloweda 14-0 run during that stretch, it is a TEAM issue not any one individual.

 

[Andresrenee]

Yep...team below this one. Wade was 2 for 6 down the stretch in the 4th and missed a free throw. The offense just got stagnate. Dragic was just 1 for 2 in the 4th and that all before Wade came back in, Deng 0 for 1, Chalmers 0 for 3 and Beasley 0 for 2. We played the last several games to place the ball in Wade's hands and it did not work out tonight. However, the issue here was too much Chalmers and Beasley and not enough Dragic and Deng. Horrible loss and would have thought that our defense could have carried the day but Chalmers and Beasley were liabilities. Bad game to lose and bad game to only score 9 points in the 4th quarter. Some questionable decisions by Spolestra in terms of set plays and the like but on we go to Boston.......Not sure they will recover minus Hassan.

 

[bksballer89]

Yeah it didn't seem like we were running any set plays. I understand that a coach isn't going to baby his team and call a set play everytime down the court but in a major drought like that you have to call a set play or 2 to get your team a easy basket or at least something that would draw a foul.

Our only basket in the last 630 of the game came on a steal from Wade which led to an easy dunk. So pretty much we did not score a single point in our offense for more than half of the 4th.....that is flat our atrocious

 

[Andresrenee]

Spolestra can't be let off the hook....Walker 3 of 3 from downtown and a guy who rebounds and yet Spolestra opted for Beasley. Also, how is a timeout not called right after his rebound? How does the Heat blow a 16 point lead when all they need to do is run offensive sets and draw fouls? As bad as the players were, Spolestra was equally awful in the 4th. I just don't see the Heat winning more than 5 of their remaining 12 games. They better win tomorrow night but honestly Boston has been a hot team and this one means something and a tie breaker so likely a Heat loss. I am sure Spolestra will reward Beasley and start him....the guy can not be trusted down the stretch...sad but true even though we all route for him.

 

[bksballer89]

Before that epic collapse we look we were well on our way to trailing Milwaukee by .5 game and having a 2 game lead at least on all the teams behind us. Due to that epic collapse we are now 2.5 behind Milwaukee and only a game up on Boston and 1.5 up on Charlotte.

For me to feel better about this disaster we must beat Boston tomorrow and I neeed Brooklyn to beat Charlotte. If that happens we'll at least 2 games up on all the teams behind us again.

 

[Paolo305613]

Funny how some are trashing Beasley after pretty much begging and crying for the heat to bring him back all season . Boy , the things idiots on this board will say to give Diva a free pass and make everyone , especially the coaches the scapegoat
