Whiteside touched by teammates, Spoelstra at jersey retirement

But some will suggest Spo/the Heat dont like/value Hassan simply because they are unhappy with how his playing time or when he gets his playing time.

I was speaking in general - about many people I have come across with such opinions - across many other social media/message board outlets. But, if you want to make it about you... go ahead.

Go Heat!

Understand. On my way to the game as we speak

 

[Paolo305613]

Lead is about to collapse on the Heat along with momentum but when you have certain guys shooting, running the offense, that have no business doing such things -- it tends to happen

 

[Paolo305613]

The latest heat collapse could be on its way. Ill blame bks for being at the game

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat keep searching for ways to just GIVE this game to the Nets... The Nets will apply the final dagger here soon.

Win or lose, tomorrow night will be a tough one for the Heat considering they let a big/comfortable lead slip and now must claw their way in this game before tomorrow night

 

[Paolo305613]

Its stupid when the Heat have Goran on the court and the refuse to run offense through him in favor of the useless JJ or Richardson

 

[Paolo305613]

That might do it for the Heat. They have no pulse on either end.

A complete collapse they only will have themselves to blame

 

[Paolo305613]

And of course our fate is sealed by a turnover by James Johnson. Thats why you cant have an overrated player on the court in crunch time or touching the ball as much.

This one is over - and even if the Heat bounce back tomorrow it will be a tasteless win considering how they are losing tonight

 

[Paolo305613]

On top of that the pussy bitch complains about a foul that wasnt there

 

[Paolo305613]

Collapse complete.

Bks for attending the game and JJ for being JJ and being in there at the wrong time are the blame.

Looks like the Heat will still remain 4th through the night but the margin will be less.

Cant wait to hear/see the Hassan cries from him and/or his loyal, often blinded backers

 

[Paolo305613]

Oh, and cant wait to see how the resident troll spins this loss on Spo, as per usual in his usual cameos when the Heat lose

Feel bad for you BKSBALLER. Hope you had fun regardless. Wish you would have gone to the Bucks game instead of this one. The backcourt was awful shooting tonight, the team got progressively worse on defense and played a really bad half. Bad loss to a bad team tonight but at least they beat the Bucks. Missed Tyler tonight. When Dragic and Richardson are off shooting it is a long night and James Johnson has regressed to his norm after the big contract. Maybe money on him and Waiters seems wasteful this year. Let’s see if he can right the ship as he has been bad. Still pleasantly surprised to see where this team is right now.

LOL. If you wish, I will deliver. Seems like the other team made better adjustments at the half and coach did not get the ball enough to his big men who were dominating. Does that make you feel better?!

The Turd quarter after the great adjustments always gets this team.

I don't think it was an adjustment thing. It was a make or miss thing. We got shots we wanted and shots we were hitting in the 1st half. Went 1-17 at one point in the 3rd quarter. Not on the coach at all.

We're 26-19 going through our toughest week of the season (only week where we play 5 games) and in the midst of a stretch where we're playing 11 of 14 on the road.

I'm totally fine with where we are right now. Considering all the injuries we had to deal with, to be 26-19 and in 4th place is fine by me.

Should be able to win 3 of our next 5. Possibly 4 of 5

I wouldn't say JJ has regressed to his norm. He is not a one dimensional player. Bad night for him though. I do agree that money on Waiters seems like a waste. His numbers are almost identical to last year except for PPG which is down as he's getting fewer shots per game this year.

Last year he was at 12.8 PPG, 5 RPG, and 3.6 APG on 47% shooting from the field and 34% from 3.
This year he entered the game tonight at 10.3 PPG, 5 RPG, and 4 APG on 47% shooting and 32% from 3.
Last year he avg over 10 shots per night. This year he is only at 8.

If he continues at this pace, this will be his 2nd best year of his career. Only last year was better so I'm fine with JJ. He's not a consistent offensive player and we know that.

It was a joke post. Our guards did not shoot well in second half. I totally agree. It happens.
