I don't think anybody is blaming the refs. We're just annoyed at the commentating.

I don't understand why they always slow the ball down...


It's part of the stupid ass 'Heat philosophy' crap we have to keep hearing about. Any time a mistake is made or something isn't changed we have to hear Tony F. use the 'well that's a Heat philosophy' excuse. :roll:


Hey I'd do terrible things to listen to Tony F. for the rest of the game now. :lol:

Our "big 3" big men are getting exposed this series..

series numbers

JO - 20fg%
Haslem - 33fg%
Beasley - 45fg%

It was bad against the Hawks last year too..


haslem has never done good against KG

:lol:

Tbh I dont see why we forcefeeding Haslem minutes at this moment, Beasley and Haslem are both horrible, but we need offense, we might aswell play Beasley.


Why though? Beasley can't stop turning the ball over. Haslem has 6 boards in the half. Beas only 3. Haslem is much more aware on D, and with the Celtics doing a great job of getting into the lane and dropping passes off to open post players when we help, I'd rather have Haslem in there. If we're putting Beas in for offense, has he shown he can score this game? I'm not saying bench the kid, but he doesn't deserve to steal any minutes from UD.

We were extremely lucky to get as many calls as we did last half with how tentative we played.

Yeah. Really wish we'd attack with our backs against the wall. We play the Celtics game we are outclassed. We should run all over these old bastards. Push for turnovers and run it down their throats.

We're down but not out. I haven't given up hope yet, but we can't afford to let them increase this lead.

No I agree. We're gonna win.

But Tommy Heinsohn is soooo funny. :lol: :lol: I can't help it even though we played like crap I'm laughin so hard anytime the Celtics get called for a foul because I see him sitting in his chair, just waiting for the replay to come up so that he can vent. :lol:

I understood when we played the Hawks like that last season since they were much more athletic than us but IMO, if we get Boston old legs running before setting up their defense, he have enough athleticism to make them pay in Wade, Q, Wright Chalmers and Beasley. Add JoEL as a rebounder and we could match their runs at the very least.

Not many teams not called Phoenix can run up the tempo on teams when they are pulling the ball out of the net. If we don't play good D, we can't run back at them. It's not a Heat philosophy, it's just basketball.

Beas has not been a weak link this game on D.

our "bigs" cant do anything in the paint or even shoot over their long arms .. the mismatch advantage has been embarassing all series. Theyre 2-14 today (beasley, haslem, jo)

We're done. If we can't cut it down to 5-6 points by the end of this quarter, it's over in a blowout in the 4th.

Pushing the tempo is what ithought we'd do against this old slow team, but looks we'll never push the tempo in this system for whatever reason.

Wade is unstoppable in the open court , either he'll score or you foul OR and 1
We have young guns in Chalmers, Dorell,Beasley, Joel who can all run, and Q who is in the best shape of his life since he was in his early 20s. Its mind bogglign why we don't run.

We are only down by 10 and we are shooting like what 38%, thats actually VERY good. We cant keep expectign wade to save us all the time guys need to step or the guys better start packing bags.
