Miami shot 25.6% from the floor, lost the rebound battle by 15, had 1 more turnover than assist, had NINE fewer field goals than Toronto had ASSISTS, and allowed the Raptors to shoot over 50% from 3 and for FG%. The Raptors scored under 100 and STILL blew out the Heat by over 40 points!

Some guy just mentioned this in the Miami game thread, look at their DNP line-up:

Williams, Banks
Wade
Marion, Wright
Haslem, Johnson
Mourning

seriously? At least TRY to cover up your tank. They've just got a super-efficient tank assembly line rolling these suckers right out into the brilliant blinding sunlight for everyone to see out in Miami. This is a blatant and aggressive showing of weapons of mass destruction.

Davis and Blount - 40%. Rest of the Heat? 19%.

The thing is, Miami's tank is over. They've already got the worst record locked up imo. I don't see that team, even with Wade, Marion, and JWill playing, winning more than 3 or 4 games.

Marion and Haslem are both out with somewhat legit injuries. I think Haslem rolled an ankle and is day to day, imo Marion is possibly fake back spasms

If Miami gets the #1 pick...I quit.


I don't expect us to get the #1 pick, at least let a team like the Bobcats or Grizzlies the top pick, team's that give it their all every night, and don't take games off just because playoff hopes are over.

Man you got to feel sorry for Blount and Davis at this point. They've been on so many terrible teams in a row.

Part of the reasons they have been on horrible teams is because they are horrible themselves. It's amazing that we won 33 games with them; just goes to show you how good KG is.

Ricky got a lot worse this year, methinks.

Can you believe we got a 1st round pick and cut down a lot of money on Blount's contract with that trade? I think it's safe to say we owned that trade.

And in a contract year even.

McHale does deserve credit. This trade was a definite win for the Wolves.

Udonis Haslem - out for season, having ankle surgery on Monday (bone spurs)
Dorell Wright - out for season - torn meniscus
Alonzo Mourning - Out for season - torn quadriceps and patellar tendon.
Dwyane Wade - Out for season - Obvious knee discomfort
Marcus Banks - Strained Hamstring in game - helped off of the floor
Alexander Johnson - he needs to play in order to get a contract next season. He wouldn't fake an injury
JWill - contract year- He needs to play as often as possible to up his value. He's not faking.
Shawn Marion-I've got no clue, but he's been grabbing his back every chance he can get, and I believe he's been playing with a partially torn ligament in one of his fingers all year long.

We're not tanking. We've just got bad luck with injuries. That's why Stern is letting us sign a 16th player.

Flash is the Future: I feel for you guys. That's some nasty ass luck, but Blake Ahearn? Is that a fictional character created by Pat Riley?

Don't knock Blake, he can play. I recommended him to a bunch of teams this year.

so can those kids from that Slam Dunk anime, but it doesn't mean they're not fictional...



:D I'm just kidding of course, but I have never heard of this guy in my life. I'll trust your opinion over mine (especially since I haven't even seen him play), but his 7.7% FG over his first 4 games so far is pretty underwhelming (though his recent 3-10 should bring it up).
