Hmmmmm, would be a very interesting move for us. Wont happen though.

Wade is a GTD for tonight but I will this one time give him a pass for finally playing in a B2B and playing well . Chalmers and The Scrub Battier out again , so this means another win because he is out.

 

[Paolo305613]

Knicks' Tyson Chandler (illness) & Beno Udrih (knee) both doubtful tonight when they host Heat.

 

[Paolo305613]

Greg Oden not on the trip as he is currently rehabbing. Bealsey turns 25 today - Lets see if he can have himself a great game on his birthday.

 

[Paolo305613]

Lebron and Wade leading in AS voting - CB 5th among big man - Despite his inconsistencies, he has come up big for us many times - He needs help to get into the game.

Could Miami Heat's Norris Cole be auditioning for a 2014-15 starting role? - Sun Sentinel
ASK IRA: Could Cole be auditioning for a 2014-15 starting role?

Too bad he was just recently fined for it and too bad Shane isnt playing, as it would have been fun to watch him be JR Smiths latest victim in the now so called “Shoelacegate”.

 

[Paolo305613]

Tyson Chandler. Beno Udrih. Pablo Pirgioni and jeremy Tyler out for Knicks.


Anything less than a blow out by the Heat would be beyond unacceptable but we cant put it past them to play down to an opponent - It is what they do best. With another game tomorrow night, it will be interesting.

 

[Paolo305613]

Bynum has cleared waivers but writers connected to the Heat dont believe there is any interest from the Heat.

Mario Chalmers, The Scrub aka Shane Battier and Greg Oden inactive - Rashard Lewis and Norris Cole starting.

Will always hate Knicks fans with a deep passion - But it is good to see one that is realistic about his team.

I bet on the Heat as 8 point favorites...so I'm hoping for and expect a blow out.

 

[Paolo305613]

Lately birdman has been committing too many fouls by attemping a block - He is leaving his feet a lot. He needs to work on that to cut down on the fouls

 

[Paolo305613]

Rashard Lewis 2-3 3's 7th gm w/mulitple 3s.

 

[Paolo305613]

Win or lose, this game is already a failure because not only are the NYK still in the game but have the lead.

And, for no reason at all, the idiot that is Steve Kerr just praised Shane Battier - Time to watch the game on mute. This is the tough part of having to deal with a game only on National TV - they are idiots.

 

[Paolo305613]

In a recent Ask Ira, he was asked about if the Heat would considering parting with Chalmers, because this particular “fan” was tired of his inconsistencies - And asked if the Heat would settle on Cole as a full-time starter at some point in the season and full time in the future. I cant really remember what Ira replied - But, I will say this, Norris Cole is better suited off the bench, the last two games have shown that. He lacks a bit of discipline when he doesnt have a guy like Chalmers to worry about over his shoulder either because Rio is struggling or injured as is currently the case. Cole has been playing a bit erratic (not to say careless) the last two games and especially tonight.

Good move by Spo here to go with no PG lineup. Just have to find someone to replace Birdman for the game in the lineup, he hasnt been at his best today

 

[Paolo305613]

This game is done - The Heat cant defend the 3 again
