December 12th, HEAT @ JAZZ 9:00pm 

Post#1 » by DefenseWins » Fri Dec 12, 2014 7:53 pm

Since no one is making it I'll just make it again

No fancy stuff till we actually do good

McBob out

Wade questionable with illness


I thought we were winning for sure if McBob played. I feel it's the staff holding him out as precaution... For a bruise, cause he wanted to play Wednesday, sigh...

Anyway, no biggie. Im not sweating the loses right now, that's not really important for the bigger picture.

I want to see Ennis, Napier, Whitside, J-Ham - all getting minutes and hopefully doing well.

Also want to see the death of smallball (Whitside and J-ham aren't great, but they can help that objective)

and Moving back to oldschool Heat defense, funneling players into the shotblockers, stop over-trapping, kill the headless chicken.

I want to see more Whiteside

He is a big boy

He also can actually get a lob unlike all of our useless old **** bigs, besides Birdman

There is nothing to lose besides this game which I think is inevitable at this point unless someone steps up tonight.

I'd like to see a starting lineup of Whiteside, Bosh, Ennis, Wade, and Napier, just to see how they play together. I'm sure there's a way to stat check and see what production they've had if any, as the sample size would be incredibly small if it even existed.

It's utah. Even the skeleton crew can keep this competitive. Spurs were really flat in that game so that win is over-rated.

Utah has a very talented and balanced lineup. They won't be the laughing stock of the league much longer.

They'll likely outrebound us and their outside shooters will have open looks as well.

We have little advantage over most teams these days.

Of course Spurs were without Parker and Splitter, but we played fairly well, and Duncan played great.
Snyder has done some changes to balance the 1st and 2nd unit when he began to make subs in the last 2 games. The result is we are not losing by 20 as we did in the other 8 losses in a row. We were competivite at Sacramento and win vs Spurs.

Still, we're young, and if Bosh and Wade (if he plays) play like the stars they are Heat should be favorites. Still mixing 1st and 2nd unit and good defensive players like Gobert with good offensives like Kanter and Hayward improve our chances.

I hope a great game.
Good luck!

Thanks for the reply, and I too hope for a good game.

As for your team, I'm not a huge fan of any one player, but the collective is very nice moving forward. You have a quality big man rotation and a quality backcourt rotation along with good wings. That's all you can ask for outside of a bonafide superstar. I'll be keeping an eye out for the progress of your youth. It will be interesting to see develop.

The Heat are a team in transition it seems, and don't have an identity at the moment. That's the perfect time for an up and coming team like the Jazz to give us their best shot.

What do we gotta do to get Whiteside some minutes? Hassan's no Dwight Howard, but he's gotta be better than the corpse formerly known as Udonis Haslem. It's amazing how fast my opinion changed on Spo and his stubbornness.

Get a W and avoid the injury bug.

No Wade no McBob

Granger is about to get some playing time probably, oh joy

Rio has to step up

Please no UD-Williams front court, nothing ever comes out of it. Teams go on runs everytime, it's a fact, it's in the play by play

Pau gasol is averaging 20 and 12. Why the hell didn't we push hard for him? He makes close to how much rcroberts makes and he actually addresses a weakness we have. Riley definitely makes some questionable calls sometimes. He's having a better season than bosh lol and makes way less for less years
