Feel like Jrue looking more lost than PP right now

I think Jrue was actually lost on those occasions you refer to. Pritchard knows what he has to do, he just can't because he's physically getting tossed around.

We've cooled down a bit. Heat still getting open looks.

Feel like we are letting them hang around due to not getting the 50/50 ball

They make the big shot every time it looks like it could get out of hand for them. Keep focused and playing the right way.

Perimeter defense is UTTER CRAP. They're getting in the paint at will.

Just garbage defense. Passing up great shots in the paint for threes.

Who the **** is Bryant
SamIam 2010: Truth's ability to play so incredibly efficiently is so UNDERAPPRECIATED. Bballcool 2012: Amazing how great Pierce has been for so long. Continues to defy age! KG 2013: P is original Celtic. Wherever he goes, we go. This is The Truth's house.

Heat just taking their frustrations out on the Cs after being atrocious yesterday.

Let's see what the 3rd qtr. brings.
