Game Thread: Miami Heat Game Thread Month of March/April

Babbitt back in starting 5

Heat back in business -- at least early in this game

 

[Paolo305613]

+7 after heat give up yet another end of quarter buzzer beater

 

[Andresrenee]

Comical to watch this team. Coaches still can’t figure out how to stop buzzer beaters. How about this? Just press them on inbounds. Could a foul be worse than the garbage they have done all year. Spolestra was hard headed during the other teams run. He needed to yank some of the players before. Losing the double digit lead and not after. Kings look like they have more mercy and yes we miss Whiteside again. Let’s see if we can play better against this bad team or whether we lose to them again. Just jacking 3s and pretending to play D in the paint.

Heat - 7 at the half . Defense and turnovers a big issue tonight

 

[Andresrenee]

Horrible defense. 59 points to Kings. Wow. Difference is Winslow’s poor shooting. The guy missed 3 Layups or bunnies and then they got points. So damn inconsistent. Dragic and Ellington carrying the team. Let’s see if Spolestra can make some halftime adjustments.

Always comical when ignorant trolls jump on board when it's not going well for the team to spew their ignorant , baseless narratives.

The constant attempts at blaming coaches and giving players a free pass is disturbing.

The heat only miss Hassan for his size . Bam out there showing what a big man is supposed to do with the rebounds and attacking inside instead of jump shots

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat continue to be late on defense. Need to make the initial pass more difficult not to nolow the opponent to get into their sets so easily . It's about more than the lack of size inside .

Disgraceful performance. Losing to the Kings 2x is inexplicable.

Nobody on this team (players or coaches) deserve a check if they lose this game.

 

[bksballer89]

This is the 2nd total unprofessional effort vs the Kings this year.

 

[bksballer89]

The Kings are ranked 29th out of 30 teams in OFF EFF

 

[Paolo305613]

The heat being taught that lesson it seems they and some "fans" refuse to learn that you can't overlook a team based on their record. Short handed or not, this has happened to the heat many times already -- and the mentality that a game is in the bag before it starts solely based on opponents record, proving costly yet again.

The heat back closer to clinching that ever important 10th seed

 

[bksballer89]

Kings with 91 points on 58% shooting through 3 quarters. They're ranked 29th out of 30 teams in OFF EFF.
For the 2nd time this season, Spo has done a shitty job of getting his team ready to beat a bad Kings team.

You would think losing to the Kings in Miami earlier this season would have been a wake up call for the coaches and players but instead, both came to Sacramento with the same unprofessional attitude and will likely lead to another L vs this team.

 

[bksballer89]

Shooting a contested 3 on every possession isn't winning formula

 

[bksballer89]

I would hope this would be a wake up call to Wade and Whiteside to get their ass back on the court on Friday night.

 

[Paolo305613]

More of these trap games against so called lesser teams remain on schedule for the heat -- they will continue to be a problem if they continue to overlook these teams.

This isn't a trap game when the team already kicked your ass. Shitty effort and shitty coaching

 

[bksballer89]

This team better learn how to win on the road fast. They're going to get swept or win 1 game in the playoffs if they continue to play like this on the road.

110 PPG allowed on this current 8 game road losing streak

 

[Andresrenee]

Great adjustments at half AGAIN. LOL. Spolestra did not have this team ready to play. No effort and no adjustments. They just kept shooting 3s and missing points in the paint. Heat in 8th seed in conference right now. I said they would finish 7-10 in conference early on and Paula just laughed. I said they could be a lotto team which would happen if they finished 9th or 10th. They may make the playoffs but not looking better than a 7th. Will only make it because Detroit stinks and Van Grundy is worse than Spolestra. Paula loves these Heat teams. Boy does this team miss Hassan and Wade. Winslow did not play defense or make basic shots tonight. Riley needs to get Spolestra an offensive coach to help the man and a quality control coach to sit with him at half to make adjustments and a high school coach to team his players how to defend on the last possession. Dragic and Arlington came to play

I wouldn't be sad if he isn't the coach 2 years from now
