I want to hear the same redundant excuses.

Dwade: I thought Bron was guarding my man

Lebron: <rolls eyes>>

Unbelievable. In 20+ years this is one of the least likable heat teams ever. **** gutless. Leaving 3pt shooters alone is a bad idea against Orlando? **** REALLY??? Make a damn adjustment for once Spo. It's not a lack of talent on this team. It's just not. I don't question Wade or Lebron's ability to win. They've done it before. I question that mfer on the sideline way over his gelled up head. This **** is tiresome. Do what you need to do Riley and get your ass back where it's needed helping these divas get their **** together as HC.

We should win any game that we score over 90 points. Our defense lost us this game.

We left every three point shooter WIDE OPEN.

Wade is so lazy sometimes and sags back to help people and leaves his man WIDE OPEN constantly

It's Spo's job to reprimend him

I can't even be that mad at this game. I'm slowly becoming apathetic. These late game situations are draining my love for this team.

LBJ+Wade had 47 first half point. They had how many second half points? 15?

Bosh is pussy, Chalmers is lil bitch, Bibby is rusty, Joel is a p.o.s., Miller hit one clutch shot, anyone else im forgetting?? Oh yeah, Spo was himself as always.... Probably the worst coach down the stretch in the entire league

So all the other role players with Bosh were being their normal self

OH SNAP!

Sun Sports is doing all they can to deflect any potential negative outcry towards Spoelstra.

That's when you know it's getting bad. When you don't even care anymore. I know how you feel man.

Heres the thing that pisses me off the most. For all the talk of defense this and defense that Wade just plays lazy defense and that being polite

they should do a sport science on his d this season and how SG's are shooting lights out with his scientifically proven shotty D lol

Once it goes National, maybe he will wake up

Its not that he cant defend its just that Wade doesn't feel like defending. When it comes to defense this season Wade has been so disappointing.

I mean, you run a play for one of the two and the Orlando defense will likely collapse on that guy and he can kick it to an open teammate. But I didn't see anything in that regard.

I'm not even that mad about our defense, we knew they were gonna catch fire at some point. But how in the world do you score 63 points in the first half and then come back and score 33 in the second?! If we had just had a normal second half, we could've easily won this game. Just score 43 points, which isn't good either, and you're good to go. But our offense sucks so badly that it allows teams to come back. Our offense was horrible in the first half, it just once again got overshadowed by great individual performances from D-Wade and LeBron. Overall, it wasn't that much different from what we did in the second half though. The Magic simply adjusted to our simple offensive gameplan and thus shut us down.

Notice how our lack of production also helped the Magic. A lot of their open shots were in transition. They just got the rebound or the steal, threw the outlet pass, got it to an open shooter before our defense was set and that guy nailed it. It was that simple.

Well, they stop penetrating and driving

Second half we completely settled for the outside shot and we got burned

We do need an offense, but we tend to settle for the outside shot

Do you know how many times I shake my head when Wade pulls up for a three?

How can Riley sit and watch and continue to do nothing.

Is Pat Riley to old and watched up to care?

Even Murphy, the player, picked Celtics due to the horrific offensive sets or lack of by the Heat.

FIRE SPORON!

Ira's postgame blog:

•And, uh, how about running a play at the finish, any finish?

Post #895 » by **GameTime_3** » Fri Mar 4, 2011 4:08 am

This game was lost in the 3rd QT. When you watch a team chuck from the outside and refuse to play defense your going to lose alot of games. In stead of taking out Chalmers and bring in a PG who would slow it down, he let it go. Another example of how our coach doesn't get IT! When was the last time you saw us play a complete game? We were winning because we were hot and making tough shots but go back and watch it...It was 1 on 5 basketball....We were winning because we were scoring but once you start to press us and force us to play TEAM ball were done! DONE! This team has no offense and refuses to change on defense. The Magic hit there 3's but at what point do you change your defense and say "Contest the 3 point line and single cover Howard". I said this for 3 years now, WE WILL NOT WIN A TITLE WITH SPO AS A COACH!

There is a reason for that. Ron Jeremy made an adjustment during the half, SPO has yet to counter it

No... if it's one person I have faith in, it's Riley. He's got to have a plan. Phil Jackson is a free agent next year.

Bibby is like dammit I knew I should have signed with the Celtics.

I agree, he can defend when he wants

I think he is a great on ball defender, it's just that he doesn't want too

He has done this all season man....it's very frustrating

I dont think he is hurt, because he goes all out on Offense, but I hope he realizes that there are two ends of the court
