Im sorry, but the Spo's design of this offense is terrible. That was the best play he could come up with. "Yo DWADE figure it out!?"
I prefer DWADE having the ball in his hands late cause he's proven time and time again he's clutch. But why no pick and roll with him and LeBron? Why not have LeBron cut to the basket if Wade gets into trouble. Why not have LeBron try that shiny new post game he's been supposedly working on? Better yet why not feed Wade in the post?
Its a shame a team this talented is held back by coaching. Also....Melo is on FIRE.....WHY NOT PUT LEBRON ON HIM!?!? A guy up for DPOY is on.....TYSON Chandler? Really Spo.
This team came out disinterested. The question is.....Are they disinterested...cause every now and then they get that way...or are they disinterested...because Spo allows them to be.
I made a thread a while ago....IF IT COMES DOWN TO COACHING.....THE HEAT ARE IN TROUBLE! The Big 3 better start blowing these teams out early again.

i love that we stayed with the same lineup through the decline and rode the same lineup till 0:00 on the clock. Love it. Love it. Love that Joel was out there get abused in the middle play after play. Love it. Love that we had plays for the end. Iso Iso and ummm Iso. Love it. Chalmers was gassed lets not give him a break. Love it.

That was one of the most infuriating sequences I've watched in a long time.
1. Leaving Battier on Melo when he was getting destroyed
2. Not even running a play in the final seconds
3. Leaving Lebron in the corner of that so called "play"
I am so sick of Spoelstra, I didn't mind his coaching when we were just Wade and scrubs before Bosh and Lebron came, but these lapses in thought are just not acceptable anymore.

I know LeBron deserves most of the blame for the finals. But today was a classic example of why Spo was just as bad. Spo has no idea how to integrate these players. I

Why did we have Battier out there for the final play? JJ would have gave Wade more room to operate.

The worst part about this whole thing is that the only way Spo is gone is if we don't win the title this year. However, even if we do win the title, I really doubt it will be because of Spo's coaching acumen. I can't help but feel we would have won last year and I'd be much more confident this year with a better coach. Spo is not getting the most out of this team.

I need to know the "logic" behind having Battier on Carmelo when it was clear he was getting humiliated. It's not like LeBron plays the same position as Carmelo or was in the running for DPOY or anything.
Reasoning from Spo's mouth or one of his supporters would be fine.

Dont worry, big changes are coming this summer.
Spo is gone and i wouldnt be suprised if Bosh get traded.
When you're making the road look so ugly, u better at least get to the goal.
It's win or be gone for Both Spo and Bosh. Both have been far from impressive considering they have Lebron and Wade next to them.

I really hated the fact that Chandler of all people has FOULED OUT and we don't go to the rim.
Wade always seems to fumble the ball when he knows where to go, but he doesn't because he fumbles it
stop this Wade closer crap, it's who has the hot hand. LeBron got us back into the game, but we give the ball to the guy who has shot his FT's so bad. Let's say if Wade did get fouled, it wasn't guaranteed anything because of his FT shooting big time.
meh... they better win Game 5. The Knicks are about to have their whole squad back... not completely healthy but it's just more trouble. Hopefully Lin just turns over the ball so much for us to get some damn offense. Our offense sucks.
Then the role players better show up.
But I did not like Battier on Melo. It is a MYTH that Battier somehow bother's Melo... Melo gets confidence against Battier as opposed to LeBron. Confidence = shot can go in.

How many more game winner's must Dwade miss before you guys get out of this "clutch" myth. You can only throw up so many dumbass circus shots before it stops working. I don't buy that ANY of the 3 have "clutch genes". Each are capable of getting it done but that would involve having actual PLAYS drawn in the closing minutes for once.
You know why a guy like Chris Paul dominates 4th quarters? He's **** smart, has an idiot for a coach, but he's **** smart and knows what to do. Whether it's him making a basket or setting it up for other players. This team just doesn't seem to get it.
Oh well, Heat in 5.

sometimes they leave the stars on a different player to conserve energy for the offense side of the ball. Battier is known for his D also so I can see the logic in it.

It was a great play call. It was executed poorly. Anyone blaming Spo for the failed last play is a moron. If Wade sinks an easy bucket in the paint, there wouldn't be a thread praising Spo's great play call. When Wade loses his handle, you can't blame the coach.
The problem is that the game shouldn't have been that close in the first place. I missed most of the game, but if it was anything like Game3, it was just poor shooting. Game3 was a stinker until the end. Let's not forget that.
In the last 5 minutes of the game that I saw, Bosh has a turnover, and Bron forced a couple bricks when there might have been better scoring options. The bigger issue to me was that we didn't get enough stops on defense. Some stupid fouls really hurt. The Knicks got some bull to fall, but so did we. It's not like last season where we just played hero ball. We're doing fine on offense, just need to hit our shots. PEACE.

The funny thing about this is we were "conserving" Bron's energy by letting Battier get destroyed by Melo just so Lebron could be stuck in the corner on the final possession and not even touch the ball.

The only thing that I won't like about this loss is giving a bit of light to New York. when its Game 5, they HAVE to close it out.
Y'know what's having Tyson with 5 fouls and he finally fouls out on the FINAL MINUTE...geezes, its not Spo's fault. Most of our guys missed a lot of three-point oppotunities and Wade missed Free Throws.
I wouldn't worry now though.
