Boston-Miami/TNT/8PM

[TrueRain]

You aren't your player's friend when he doesn't show up. I don't care how great their relationship is. This is obviously a big game and if you play like straight a**, then you'll have to hear about it, swallow it and be super aggressive in the second half.

But he's right though. Spo is too scared to light a fire under Wade's ass. I've said this the past 2 seasons. We don't need this guy coaching Wade. Wade doesn't know everything. He still needs to be COACHED. I guarantee Spo never gets on Wade for not getting back on D. Wade goes on thinkin these things are okay because the coach never expresses any emotion toward it. You can't be best friends with your best players.

And another thing, we're supposed to be a defensive minded team. Well defensive minded teams are tough. Especially a Riley team. And I'm not seeing any of that.

the Heat follow up the 84 point 2nd half/OT against Utah with a nice 61 point 1st half to Boston

From Bostons board:

At halftime...

Spoelstra: "Come on guys, do you hear my phone ringing? That's Mr.Riley's ringtone...Please....I have a family to feed, do something"

[Miamis3rdRing]

I think they can't play with any clear emotion because Spo and his bull rhetoric is just so god damn confusing and shallow. I personally would have no idea how to respond to the concept of an energy bus.

I lol'd.

Spo is not a motivator. I don't care how good these guys are, at this level having a coach that can motivate the players does make a difference.

When I hear sound bytes of Spo in our huddle's, I feel like I've gone back in time to my YMCA basketball days.

Oh you know what, screw it, Im using the sig.

F U Spo.

Exactly, that was the same problem with LeBron and Mike Brown. They are his friends. Your head coach should not be your friend.

You can't put the legacy of Wade and Lebron on the hands of Spo, you just can't

and

DEFENSE is only what SPO offers being Miami Heat's Coach

[Miamis3rdRing]

Watching the first half highlights pissed me off once again. Fire Spo sig is up.

THIS!!!!

[fishfuego.]

Horrific, Horrendous, Malicious Style of offense, of course we can say Wade is not bringing it, but Wade is not being put in a position for easy baskets either. .
No fast breaks, no rotations, bad looking offense so far.

No hassle from the Team, as Baby was running full speed while you can see Haslem jugging right behind him, led to an easy put back. That's a reflection of a coach not getting the message across.

[dflash3]

OMG no Joel!? ADJUSTMENT!!!!!!

[BronBron06]

Wooohoo The Small White Bald guy again

[Aiolos]

what the hell was spo smiling about????

[cheenofly523]

It sucks when your point guard has no range. Mo Williams would of hit that 3.

[Carlos4Heat]

LOL! Nah Ankh my first name is Carlos.I'm of the belief that Arroyo is kind of detrimental to this team. I was just trying to convey to you that it's not just wade but player 1 through 15 that need to step it up.

[Heat3]

what the hell was spo smiling about????

Probably laughing about what Rondo is going to do to Arroyo?

[andre316]

All right, second half starts with Arroyo barely hitting a long 2, then letting Rondo get an easy assist for #10 on the night.

[Miamis3rdRing]

Whoa, Wade!

Sick shot...haven't seen that in a LONG time
