Definitely the last game with some meaning on the Heat's schedule, regardless of Ginobli's status....just come out of this one as healthy as can be. Rotations defensively are going to have to be quick, otherwise they'll rain three's on us all night long. Plus, we need to make sure that we move the ball offensively and be crisp with the passing.

Naw, we still have NY though. Imo, we should sit out that game for the "LOLs"

I can't believe Duncan. He averages 10 rebounds a game, 2 blocks a game, just hit a game winner, and he's what... 36, turning 37 next month?

I can't wait to see Bosh vs Duncan...

Duncan just has the perfect style of play for someone who is aging, his play has never really relied on athleticism but more on fundamentals and footwork and reading the ball off the rim for rebounds, perfect style that If your good at you can play at a high level for a lot longer. It's like that 40 year old dude that comes around the park or the gym every now and then and plays old school basketball and even though he's slow he balls everyone up, thats exactly what Duncan is lol Love watching him play, always have. And cool quick story, I worked at shulas athletic club in Miami Lakes for 5 years back when I was in high school and every now n then opposing teams playing the Heat would stay at shulas hotel, one night the gym was completely empty we were closing in 30 min and Duncan walks in to take a few shots, and at the time I was playing basketball for Barbara Goleman Senior High and when I told him he let me go in the gym with him and grab his rebounds and pass them to him for 30 min, such an awesome person, awesome experience.

I have a good feeling about this game. My head tells me it's probably a loss -- end of a 4 game road trip, SA is dominant at home, etc.--but something in my gut says we are gonna kill it.

Should be a tight one... But I think we have a better chance of winning this game then to say when we were on the streak. The team is playing a lot more freely and at a relax state, so I expect a win :D

I wouldn't be surprised. It's another challenge heading into the playoffs.

I bet LeBron wants this win.

These are the type of games we blow-out the opposition.

People feel like we can lose, and underdogish...we are away as well so it's a perfect set up for a blow-out

its gonna be something no one expects.


Im just hoping Lebron is still hot from 3

Nice game, I think that will be a close one. We got to put Duncan in foul trouble, otherwise he will eat us alive.

Good measuring stick kinda game.

My bet is we meet them in the finals, Thunder is plan B.

Both will want to win this game to see where they are at against each other. Spurs are at home so they should really win this game. Got a feeling if Miami aren't in the game late in the 3rd they pull the pin in the 4th and try not to give away too many secrets to SA in case we meet in the Finals.

I won't be upset if we lose this as long as we play hard and try and win it.

Should be a great game although I don't think it will be a great spectacle in terms of awesome to watch. Probably scrappy mid scoring game.

If Heat win this it will be MASSIVE, no pressure on us they are at home.

LEGGO!!!

It is amazing how Duncan is still dominating. Everybody likes to ride Kobe's jock about his longevity but look at Tim. Man he went ham on the Clippers last night. He has such a fundamental game...

This game is going to be great because both the Heat & Spurs are great teams in the clutch. We're going to need an all around team effort to beat the Spurs. Kind of similar to the performance that we put up against Indiana...
