2nd half will be an uphill battle if we can't get this lead under 10 at the half

We will be alright....Spolestra will get that Winslow and Green duo out there!

Dragic with the Scrub Battier moment of the night fouling a 3pt shooter

 

[bksballer89]

Wow how do you foul a 3 pt shooter so far out?

 

[Paolo305613]

As was said earlier - Wade will try to will this team back into the game - that isn't always necessarily a good thing for the Heat - especially if it comes down to a final shot...

 

[bksballer89]

Wade is the only player playing with a sense of urgency

 

[Andresrenee]

So much for closing strong. Best case down 12. We have 32 points to a team that on average gives up 104 with a minute left. They average 90 points and have 47.

Its still early...

Bet the 76ers glad to be back in Miami!!! One of their only 6 road wins this year!!! Dragic just does not seem to fit with this team. Green showing why he signed for the league minimum

I don't think the dragic issue has anything to do with fit. He's just playing like garbage

 

[Paolo305613]

Led by Wade, lots of weak shots to the basket for the Heat so far. UD will be busy screaming and yelling at them - maybe should get some minutes to show them how to play with heart no matter the circumstances.

 

[Paolo305613]

Always comical when someone used the word " fit" to be critical of a player, yet has zero understanding on that particular players game or what that team really wants to do offensively or defensively. Wanna be GM/Coach Andres always up to no good

He is missing easy shots but what is clear is that he does not play well off the ball and I think it impacts his confidence when he does have the ball. We could end up with two real bad losses on this home stand. Down 15, and we have only scored 32 at the half. Not sure where the offense is going to come from unless Bosh, Dragic and Green get hot.

 

[Paolo305613]

The Heat will need a big run to start the second half, which I think will happen - for them to have a chance at cutting into this lead and giving themselves a chance in the 4th quarter if not a little sooner

Yes. His 10 ppg average is the worst in 5 years. Either not a good fit or Riley picked up a someone who just benefitted from the Suns system.

 

[Paolo305613]

Or just simply struggling and off to a slow start but will improve as the season goes on - which is what I think will happen and I am sure a few others believe the same in here - you may be the only thinking otherwise. But you seem to have already this game and our season moot long ago -- so...

 

[Paolo305613]

Good point by coach Howard here -- no ball movement - just 5 assist. That needs to change. I am afraid this is an area the Heat can potentially continue to struggle in if , as was mentioned in here before , Wade tries to " will" this team to victory.

 

[Paolo305613]

Here is that run I spoke of the Heat making just a few moments ago. Will it be enough to turn this game around and re-gain the lead? we shall see.

 

[Andresrenee]

Nice play to open. Down 7 now. D needs to clamp down.

Good call.

Good call.

You are still here? thought you gave in on the game
