Quote of the year by Ron Artest:
"It's weird because people don't think about the whole basketball game," he said in the magazine interview.

"There's offense: Kobe averages 30 and is a great offensive player. Then you have defense. So on defense, now I have my supporting cast. I'm one of the best defenders to ever play basketball, so I'm the first option on defense."



-iamworthy: I love his attitude and passion for defense!

[That Nicka]

blowout

[dockingsched]

kobe vs. wade. doesn't get much better. we'll see how often they guard each other.

[DEEP3CL]

Another team with a undersized front line, Beasley isn't 6'10" like they claim he is.......only with shoes maybe. Either way he'll get abused early and often by Pau........too damn small no matter how you cut it. And Richardson will get murdered by Ron in this game. And O'Neal too will be abused by Drew often.

Oh yeah let me put it out there.............the excuse for Heat fans should the Heat lose.

It was the second of a back to back.........

Yeah yeah I got it

But let me get this straight we had two games back to back that went OT right and WON both right?

[Classick]

B2B's against OKC and Houston (who beat you guys in Staples) aren't worth bragging about.

Getting blown out in Denver on the back end of a B2B was hilarious though.

What would the Lakers know about having a difficult schedule though? 4 road games out of 17 games. LMAO.

Your boys will be dealt with badly................like it was said expect a blowout kid. And all you chumps complaining like girls about the Laker schedule is weak. 31 of their last 68 games are on the road............and like it was two years ago,we won't complain. Just be happy your over achieving Heat are in the convo...........for now.

first- nobody is bragging about winning a b2b in Houston. second- I am glad you had a good laugh watching us get blown out so I hope you man up and apologize if the Heat get blown out. third- this is the same team that we had last year towards the end of the season and they did play some very tough road trips with several back to backs, so yes they do know about having a difficult schedule. fourth- baiting will not be tolerated.

Classick is not a regular on our board at all so please don't let him represent Heat fans across RealGM.

BTW -- why in the world would Miami use an excuse like the 2nd night of a B2B on the road against the defending champs? We need an excuse? How bout the fact we aren't as good as the LA? Our roster is overmatched WITHOUT question, I dont know a single Heat fan who thinks we are expected to go into Staples Center and win.

However, stranger things have happened and DWade singlehandedly gives the Heat a shot going into ANY game.

Good luck, I think it will be a great game. You guys must get a gang of trolls because you guys win RealGM Defensive Players of the Year awards and I'm not referrring to on the court.

That just seems to be the excuse du jour for the weaker teams boards so far, None of the elite teams boards are using that excuse.

[desertlakerfan]

Miamis only starting post defender is JOneal, he'll be trying to guard Bynum so expect a heavy dose of Pau Gasol schooling Beasley on the low block early and often.

As long as we play right and come with our normal defensive intensity I see another blow out by the end of 3.

[The Skyhook]

How bout them Nets?

This one will be fun to watch. Go Lakers!

[Unsung]

Should be a relatively easy game and a blowout by 3rd quarter. However our bench will suck and we win by 11 or 12 point in the end.

[dockingsched]

well, looks like the heat have no reason to be tired tomorrow. they didn't show up to play today.

[DEEP3CL]

Let Wade get his and erase the rest of his girls.

[GreatAdrian]

Get a good lead the first three quarters and let the bench handle the 4th quarter.

Just stay sober Ron Ron

[AkiraSendo]
