Joe Johnson with the Scrub Battier moment of the game fouling a 3pt shooter now has 2 fouls. Enter Rook 1

Can't give Kemba lots of open looks

 

[Paolo305613]

Wade misses an easy one on one end and a bad foul on the other. not a good sequence

 

[Paolo305613]

Amare coming in . Good to give Hassan a rest now and have him back in there early in the second

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat doing it on both ends now

 

[Paolo305613]

1st turnover comes with about 2 minutes left. very helpful for the Heat

 

[bksballer89]

Nice start

 

[Paolo305613]

Cut down on the fouling and we can break this one open with no problem

 

[Paolo305613]

May not happen, but I want to see me some D-Wright play in meaningful minutes in this game/series - hopefully, even if this continues as a blow out -- we see him before garbage time rolls around

Love what Spo is doing giving Amare major minutes on Big Al. Whiteside always had trouble guarding him so if we can give UD/Amare 15 minutes per game when Jefferson is on the floor is huge

 

[Paolo305613]

Lucky that foul wasn't on Amare ... could've been McRoberts time if that were the case and hell would've broken loose here.

Love even more the greatness that is Spo and his coaching skills on the bench there with Hassan Whiteside. Subtle things that go a long way.

If only the Heat could play defense without fouling - regardless of bad officiating -- we have to play better without fouling

Serious foul trouble for Miami

Very efficient on the offsensive side of the ball thus far. We got some foul trouble, but provided Hassan does not pick up his 3rd here, we should be OK. Would rather insert Haslem right now. Halftime adjustments still coming so just hope the crowd helps us maintain in 2nd half

All important 3rd quarter coming up.

Time to see if they learned anything from Boston on Wednesday

We can only hope. But not bet the house on it

One would hope we learned for at least this game. We are playing at home so one would hope that would help. Hope we come out and put this one away early.

The third quarter adjustments will be made and be great as usual - the execution will not be a problem this time around. Not saying the Heat aren't capable of getting that complacent again -- not that they were last game - just a lot of bad luck - But the focus is different at this stage so none of that will happen this time.

The biggest adjustment has to be playing defense without fouling - even then, a lot of bad officiating has contributed to that
