Miami lost to a sinking team. I am also surprised James Jones was allowed to shoot 9 times.

Not one, two, or three but at least five championships are what i expect from the Heatles. Easily.


Does anyone ever take this guy comment seriously? He not even a true NBA fan :lol:

Heat just in a slump right now, plus dealing with injuries. Still happy NY took them out, good for basketball.

It's always good to see Realgm enjoy Heat losses, the funny part is the very same people will be quiet as a mouse when Heat start to go on their streak when they are healthy :lol:

Pity Lebron and Wade aren't capable of carrying a team for a short stretch.

celtics have had more injuries than the heat, and are #1.
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their
shoes. That way, you'll be a mile from them, and
you'll have their shoes.

not worried about the Bulls one bit

they may have the same record, but they have had 5 more home games than the Heat. Thats a big western stretch that the Bulls start next week

What do you expect from someone who made an account to troll the Heat.


About as much as I expect from someone who created an account to jump on the Heat bandwagon right after the decision.

Which you can guess is not much at all.

But I accept these things as a fact of life on these boards.

And what the **** does this have to do with me? :roll: Most of the bandwagoners have died down since the bad 9-8 start and because it was unlikely (and now impossible) to beat the Bulls record.

Um no not really, We saw when Lakers went on their losing streak it was barely talked about. had it been last year we'd see 9 threads with 10 pages+ each, but obviously since the Heat are the new team to hate, you will GB be pretty quiet and slightly boring when they win games compared to when they lose.

It is very interesting that the top 2 players in the NBA (using PER) cannot beat a middling .500 team in the Eastern conference that plays no defense. Granted Bosh was hurt but it surely shows some weakness, especially in their inability to have ball movement when the game gets close in the 4th. If nothing else, it's something to keep an eye out for.

Knicks deserved the win, I'm glad Spoesltra's offense or lack thereof was exposed on national tv. LeBron being cold and everyone else not being able to score on the Knicks was comical.Heat have probably reverted to 9-8 Heat with Le-iso and pounding the ball. Wade does a better job of moving without the ball and making quick decisions,LeBron... not so much, his post game needs A LOT of work as well for this team to be better.

didn't get to see the game, but dam how the hell does a guy with migranes all week along out perform a guy who is suppose to be the #1 player in the league? I dont know who guarded James but I can't imagine anyone of any significance on NYK that play much of any D to being with.

I wish Spoelstra would have totally gone off Lebron on national television. This isn't Spoelstra's fault, Lebron is just dumb and thinks he can do it all. I don't even think a coach like Pops or Jackson can get through to Lebron.
