Game Thread: Miami Heat Month Of February Game Thread

[Andresrenee]

A move must be made. Paying Whiteside 98 mil to pay 25 MPG seems like a waste. I love Hassan but if you're playing your max guy 25 MPG then you probably should get rid of him before he walks for nothing which is what Hassan will do in the summer of 2019.

Also either TJ and/or JJ need to go.

LOL. They all got paid and let go of the rope.

Maybe the Heat should just blow it all up because the earth is obviously falling.

 

[Paolo305613]

4 game losing streak and Hassan isnt getting the minutes some within the "fan" base desire -- so the earth is obviously falling and maybe the solution is for the Heat to throw in the towel before the AS break and blow it all up.

 

[Paolo305613]

Derrick Jones recalled as the Heat could be without K.O. Ellington and Winslow.

Of course the Heat have to play the Rockets tonight

 

[Paolo305613]

Some updates per Ira Winderman, K.O. is out -- Winslow will play and Ellington is doubtful.

For the Rockets, Ariza is out - Gordon is doubtful -- Anderson will try to give it a go

 

[Paolo305613]

No go for Wayne Ellington due to a sore shoulder. Hopefully this helps him find his groove again when he returns.

 

[Paolo305613]

-11 after 1 and it may not take long for the Rockets to put the Heat out of their misery tonight

 

[Paolo305613]

I say it every game but the Heat have to have good shot selection and take care of the ball to give themselves a chance in this game. If they struggle in the two areas as theyve done so during this losing streak and too many times this season - they will lose in a blow out as they are now

 

[Paolo305613]

THe Heat have managed to get the deficit to -4 at the half and actually have SOME momentum heading into the 3rd quarter.

Maybe they arent going to fall on their face in this one.... yet

 

[Paolo305613]

For the moment, it seems like the Heat have come back to life in this game

 

[Paolo305613]

unnecessary Hassan jumper there - dont need that shit from him at this point

 

[Paolo305613]

-3 after there. Ideal for the Heat to be down just 1 possession into the 4th -- just would be better if it were a 1-2 point different rather than 3... dont want to see any more games come down to the Heat having to settle for their too often favorite shot

 

[bksballer89]

When the last time Tyler Johnson had a good game?

 

[bksballer89]

This is a terrible lineup to have in at this point of the game.

 

[Paolo305613]

Hassan in the 4th quarter has to excite the Hassan fan club in here

 

[Paolo305613]

When the last time Tyler Johnson had a good game?

Wouldnt surprise me if the last time he had a good game that JJ also did and havent since

 

[bksballer89]

Prefer Winslow over Tyler Johnson. Both not doing shit on offense but at least Winslow is solid on defense

 

[bksballer89]

Hassan in the 4th quarter has to excite the Hassan fan club in here

Nothing about exciting anyone. You play the guys who are playing well that night in crunch time. Not complicated. J-Rich, Dragic, and Hassan been the 3 best players tonight.

 

[bksballer89]

Probably right. One of them need to be gone from the team tomorrow by the end of the trade deadline

 

[Paolo305613]

Yeah, for sure. Heat season comes down to trade deadline no matter what they do the rest of the season -- if they dont make a move tomorrow they are officially eliminated from playoff contention....

10th seed!
