I guess you're blind although I'm not surprised.

Did you not see the swipe on his ENTIRE arm or what?

that's it, considering the toughness of their schedule Heat losing streak will extend to 20's.

At least the Heat are trying, their tanking campaign so far has not been intentional. They just better hope they luck out in the draft, because unlike the Celtics last season, they don't have Al Jefferson to trade for a superstar, they'll suck for many years to come.

They play Indiana this weekend, and O'Neal isn't expected to play.

But, with our luck, we'll get blown out.

I'd be shocked the Heat don't get the #1 overall pick. You couldn't have worse luck. They'd be due for something good to happen.

Shouldn't Heats fans rejoice at the fact they're a game closer to getting the most balls in the 08 Lottery?

Yep -- I saw that game.

That's the NBA for you.

Call it for 47 minutes and ignore it in the last.

Too bad the NFL doesn't do the same.

New England would of never beaten Baltimore. :roll:

Refs haven't been calling that this year. I know from watching Lebron get raked across the arm several times in late game situations.

Wade should have gone to the pull-up. Tough loss for the Heat..


he was ettling for jumpshots for like 3 straight possessions before that last one. it was a good decision to drive. too bad the refs reserve the calls during games that really matter.

That's the difference between Dick Bavetta and Bennett Salvatore...

Bennett would have had Wade on that line at least 3 or 4 times towards the end... Dick was having none of that..

If it was any consolation, Bennett was probably blowing his whistle from his couch...

Losing is never a good thing. It gets to you mentally.

lol, did you guys see Bruce Bowen basically HOOK his arm?

Incredible. Only a Spurs fan can defend that, but they're used to it.

I mean, we all saw Kobe get RAPED by the officials last night.

That was a good game

Duncan, Wade played awesome, with solid support for each... the superior team won, though. Definitely closer than I thought it'd be :).

Great effort by Miami for sure, but SA turned up that defense and scored enough to win - Miami missed 10 of their last 12 shots.

Hopefully Barry's not out too long
