"Into the Fire" on Sunshine Network 

Post#1 » by HeatFanSince87 » Mon Dec 19, 2011 4:02 am

Have you guys seen this yet? A great recap of the season from start, to the disappointing finish. Honestly, I havent watched any highlights of last seasons great playoff run, because it brought back so much disappointment for me to even think about it. The series against Boston and Chicago... Man, I almost forgot how awesome Lebron was in those serires, especially in the clutch moments.

I'm sure they will repeat the show, it's actually Zo narrating the whole thing, which is pretty cool. Lost in the disappointing finish, at least for me, was so many great moments. Hope you guys have a chance to watch it.


And no, after the Bulls/Heat ECFs segment.. I did not watch. Still can't. :(

Im still depressed about the Finals, not even a 50 pt beating on the Christmas opener would please me -- but I believe it's only the beginning of special things to come. Dont worry. They got this :)

Am I the only one that's not sure why we made a documentary about a losing season? I swear that's unheard of....

Oh well, here's to a new season and I'm sure we'll win the title, we aqcuired Battier, I still feel a little chance that we're working for a s&t to get Dalembert, I'm not sure why he wouldn't of signed yet otherwise.

Into The Fire 

Post#7 » by This IsMy House » Wed Dec 21, 2011 1:49 am

Did anyone get a chance to check out the Miami Heat movie "Into the Fire"? I watched it up to the ECF today just because I can't stand to watch any videos of the finals anymore. I thought it was really well done and pretty sweet to watch a recap of the season. But one thing I noticed was that James Jones was really clutch for us all year long with his 3pts. Then I was wondering, I don't think he played at all, and if he did he barely played at all during the finals. I can't figure out why? I know he isn't great on defense but his three help us consistently throughout the year and why during the biggest games of the year he rode the bench.

I imagine they probably planned it anyways, win or lose. You don't make something like that without having planned it beforehand.

I dunno, I can sort of tell the players feel it, but I know as a fan I feel like a huge weight has been lifted off our backs even without winning it all last year. No more wondering what the team is even going to look like, no 72 game speculation thanks to shortened season, only 1 team with bragging rights and they're in the West (and not even favored to return to the Finals)....

Things just feel free and easy this year. Last year everything just felt so tense all the time.

Hell, even that first preseason game it looked like the players were just flowing out there. No ugly isos or ball stoppage, just pretty basketball.

I know exaclty what you mean man. This may sound dumb, but let year as a fan it felt more like work, vs enjoyment. From trying in vein to always defend our team against the haters(and our "fanhood"), to the consistent scrutiny, and no matter what they accomplished.. It was never enough. I felt drained after the season.. Even though going into the season, I felt we were a year away.. I never out of all my teams, wants a title so bad.


I think our boys are ready this season.. To take what's theirs!

That movie actually got me depressed once it ended. As soon as D-Wade hit that three again, I knew it was the beginning of the end. I actually felt myself getting pissed at LeBron all over again. I may never forgive him for his disappearing act between Games 3-6. I'm serious about that.

Basically, the Heat gave the ball to LeBron in Game 2 and he failed to stop the Mavericks comeback.

Dribble, dribble, dribble, dribble, dribble, dribble, start moving when the playclock is at 9 seconds. Horrible.

Any long time Heat fan knows, if we just let Wade handle all the responsibilities there, the Heat are the current defending champions. Wade would have never let that happen if he had 100% control of the team.

To be honest, I know some of you will laugh and think I'm crazy, but I want to believe LeBron is involved in gambling or something. He showed he can come through in BOS & CHI series, but completely vanished in the Finals. With JASON KIDD GUARDING HIM at times.

Something is off about him.

<3 Wade though.

While I agree, this year I'm as angry as ever before. I don't just want to beat teams, I want to destroy them, especially Dallas. I actually hope for a rematch just to stop all the Dirk hype, just to see Cuban cry again, just to shut Jason Terry up. It's sort of revenge time for me as a fan this season. I'm going to enjoy every win so badly and if we should win the Finals, you know I'm gonna troll the world.

My dad actually mentioned something like this. I don't believe it, but it's interesting lol. He said how LeBron sold the game, and figured why not since Dallas also were old and they might not get this chance again, but he possibly would. To be fair though in Game 2 both Wade and LBJ were forcing up shots they weren't suppose to... if they won't win while LBJ is in a Heat uniform I don't think I'd be able to forgive him either.
