Game Thread: Miami Heat Regular Season Game Thread For Months Of October and November

Big 3 for Ellington

 

[Paolo305613]

Big bucket for Winslow for And-1 hopefully to spark the final/winning run for the Heat in this one

 

[Paolo305613]

Terrible decision by Richardson to shoot -- that could be costly

 

[Andresrenee]

Richardson is so damn inconsistent. Can’t believe he is our go to right now.

 

[Andresrenee]

Mediocre team who can’t fonish. Seeing it last two games. Indiana is just better than the Pistons.

 

[Paolo305613]

Winslow picked the wrong time to take his worst shot. That one may have done the Heat in tonight

 

[Paolo305613]

Turnover machine Richardson commits another untimely turnover to seal this loss for the Heat.

Will have to bounce back tomorrow night -- possibly short-handed again.

 

[Andresrenee]

Richardson is garbage. 6-16 with 6 turnovers and 5 fouls and horrible shots between him and Winslow. Hassan only gets 8 shots. Comical. 5-6. Mediocre team. Blew this one.

 

[Paolo305613]

Wouldn't you know it... another Richardson turnover.

 

[Andresrenee]

Team can’t run set plays down the stretch or won’t. Hence why they blow leads. Still offensively challenged. Still running hero ball but we don’t have the hero’s anymore in Lebrun, Wade and Bosh. Do they beat the Wizards tomororw?

 

[Paolo305613]

Wishful thinking on my part -- but if the Heat can work on FTs between now and before tomorrow nights game, it would be great -- but they don't care to work on FTs or taking care of the ball

 

[Andresrenee]

Richardson ends it with another crab shot selection. Guy shooting right at 30 percent last two games and yet he has the most shots - 39. Wow. Keep getting him the ball coach.

They were missing 2 of their best ball handlers tonight....We saw how important they are in the 24 turnovers Miami had

Disappointing end to the game. Pretty sure this game ends differently if Dragic and Wade are playing.

True but does one really set it up for Richardson to shoot 12-39 the last two nights with more turnovers and personal fouls? Whiteside had just 8 shots. You would think they would have run more shots for a guy going over 55 percent from the field the last two nights and dominating the board. Bad job team. But coach Spolestra is our hero. Ellington and Johnson May have been better than Richardson.

Richardson is the go to guy this now. This was obvious all preseason. I'm ok with this. You can't just quit on a guy because of a bad night or 2. Before these last 2 games, J-Rich went for 27,31, and 32 in 3 of the previous 4 games. Every perimeter player struggled from the field tonight. Indy is a really good defensive team.

 

[Paolo305613]

Goran is back tonight . DJ Jr good to go as well. Wade, James Johnson and Waiters out/inactive

 

[Paolo305613]

+10 after 1 for the Heat

 

[Paolo305613]

35 points for the so called "defensive minded" Heat led by their so called "defensive minded"(by some troll clown) future HOF HC in Spo.

The Heat have always been a defense first organization - has nothing to do with Spo - but trolls will be trolls

 

[Paolo305613]

Only +3 at the half for the Heat. Taking care of the ball and tightening up defensively will need to be made a priority again in the second half in order to survive this game.
