If he does come back, Bosh that is, I'm hoping for next year return. Don't want to mess up the flow we have, and returning back to old habits to accommodate Bosh. Nobody really wants to hear it but games we've played fast tempo with bosh, were a nightmare. Bosh makes too many turn overs and his style requires patience to see the floor to get his shot off. That's not saying he can't run the fast break, he does that admirably. The problem with Bosh is decisions made quickly after the first trigger in the offense, usually turns into a turn over. unfortunately Miami made the mistake of building a team with players that don't blend well. It's awesome how Wade has made the effort to fit within the system, but after 10 plays or so he reverts back to dominating the ball for a few plays, and I can't blame him it's in a superstars nature. Some things are hard to give up. Those runs by other teams when it seems your going to run them out of the building are one part adjustments on their end and another reverting back to ISO pound the ball looking for a hole in the defense. When Miami fully embraces the system for a full 48 minutes and leave their egos in the locker room you'll see a scary Heat team, and that's on the players not on the coaching staff.

Are people really gonna act like we didn't win 4 straight with Bosh before running into the Clippers and the Spurs?

The changes to the offense started a while ago, they weren't just about pace they were also about getting Justise and Deng to cut rather than be spot up shooters.

Our schedule has been soft as hell and we've still lost games to the better teams in both respective conferences. The best win we've had is that over a 7th seeded Pacers team or the win over a broken Hawks team.

I like the way we're playing and I'm happy that we're winning but lets not get carried away.

Bosh when healthy is our best player.

Please, someone tell Eric Reid that "Great Wall of Whiteside" is a stupid name. Yao was already the "Great Wall' and adding Whiteside to it is just terrible.

BOOM!

This is why Spurs have been so consistent. No matter how long you've been playing for and how many championships they preach zero ego and they share the ball as a unit.

If u don't want 2b here, the way things work, u don't like it, then don't b here. U have 2 stand on something. If Miami ain't standing on something, they become alot of these organizations trying 2 find their identity. This is the culture, bro -Wade

It was essentially about giving our players the freedom and more opportunities (trust & faith).....But ULTIMATELY it was about playing as team!

Bosh may be our best player......but evidently we have looked far better w/out him regardless when the adjustments started.

Man, we're making chit Johnson look very serviceable!

Our spacing is supposedly better but our offense altogether has reverted to the chittier side, feels like our defense too. We'll see how much of an impact Joe has on both ends in the next few games or so, these last couple of games could mean nothing.

Shout out to J-Rixch and JJ tho, Rich has gone 10-18 from 3pt land his last 9 games :o Him and TJ are going to be some nice 3&D players if they ever become playable together
Long Live Winnie. Mamba siempre

^ John Crotty's daughter looked so disengaged and that's been the case for a few years now. I do find Will Manso's kid adorable though.
