What a frustrating game.
To me we lost this one at the end of the 3rd. We were up 9, and we let them close out the quarter on a 9-0 run. What was worse was we open the third with Wade still on the bench and let them continue the run.
This Chalmers - Cole back court is not working. I do not know where we go for better guard play but that lineup is unacceptable.
To go a little more in depth on how the end of the 3rd lost us the game, look at our possessions up nine. We got up nine because we were getting the ball to our bigs and granger was playing exceptionally well. Up 9 Chalmers decides its my turn and I knew we were screwed. Chalmers has to have a very short leash, and if he gets carried away he has to come right out.
On a positive I honestly forgot how good Wade is. This guy is unbelievable and is playing some of the best offensive ball of his career. His efficiency and play making ability is really only matched by one other guy and that is Lebron. Also this Whiteside has been a nice surprise. He is raw, but he gives us good minutes on both sides of the court.
Overall I don't think it is time to panic. This team is still finding itself and I think once we get Bosh back into the flow we will start winning some games. Realistically we are a 6-8 seed, but that doesn't mean we can't make a run in the playoffs. Do you really think we couldn't take out the hawks or raptors in the first round?
Long story short I am really enjoying Wade's play but goddamn lets start winning some games.
