Game Thread: Miami Heat @ Indiana Pacers Game Thread

Rashard Lewis all of sudden getting minutes

Spo waved the white flag on Scrub Battier already hopefully. Advised him to retire at seasons end.

And yes, our offense sucks right now but it is because our passing sucks - LBJ is leading the team in making horrific passes - of which , of course, he later stares at the other player as if its their fault rather than taking responsibility himself

Can someone guard Stephenson? Everytime we cut into the lead we get sloppy and let them drain shots.. Cole and Chalmers just suck

 

[Paolo305613]

Toney Douglas and UD in early - Scrub Battier definitely out of the rotation finally… lets hope and we can still win this one

 

[Paolo305613]

Chalmers is garbage - goes for the weak ass tear drop when he had a open lane--- Heat take weak ass shots when they can make easy baskets with more conviction

Hibbert hits Lebron and no call

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat got to the line 20 times i believe which is a lot but only lead by 1 - LBJ along with the rest of the team has settled quite a bit early on and I think thats part of why its just a small lead

 

[Paolo305613]

LeBron James: 5th game with at least 20 points in the 1st half this season.

Heat went 4-0 in the first 4 such games this season

Per ESPN stats and info… He has to avoid getting complacent to accomplish this with the team

 

[bksballer89]

I like the move to start Ud over Oden

 

[Paolo305613]

Stevenson starting shit but the Heat escalating it by responding… Good call by the ref to call a technical on diva wade - he earned it

 

[Paolo305613]

Fiorentino claiming this “usually ignites the heat” not always - and I’m almost certain all this may work against the Heat… The pacers have nothing to lose, the heat do

 

[Paolo305613]

Smart move by Spo to have LBJ start the quarter - no reason for him to be sitting at all in this game anyway

 

[Paolo305613]

Take Cole out and dont put him back in - Two turnovers and the lead back down to 1 for the Heat - could have opened this one wide open were it not for those two unnecessary turnovers

 

[bksballer89]

Cole been playing like shit but did hit a 3

 

[Paolo305613]

Hibbert earned that and deserved much worse

 

[Paolo305613]

Ira Winderman suggesting LBJ might get a suspension for what he did - In that case, I would expect multiple suspenions for the Pacers as well as the refs, right?

 

[Paolo305613]

LBJ and Wade seem to want to lose this game on turnovers - LBJ doing too much with the ball again turns it over

 

[Paolo305613]

Wizards lose, clinching the division officially for the Heat.

 

[Paolo305613]

Wade needs to be benched - he is only hurting us in this game

 

[Paolo305613]

This will all ignite the pacers and get them going .. they know how to take advtange of these moments… not the heat

 

[avalon2423]

Wades reaction is priceless
