I hope Wade comes back, it looks like LeBron could use a rest. Lets really not suck and don't let the Pistons in this game at all, like they did with the Cavs. Hopefully Bosh keeps this hot streak up this week, well need him for NYK, and CHI.

This game has me a little worried, only because its not at home. We would have lost tonight's game if it was away because of how lethargic we were the entire night. Still don't want Wade rushing back if he's not ready, but if he is there is 0 reason to wait for the Knicks or Bulls to bring him back.

I think if Bosh can stay hot, and/or LeBron catch his second wind, we should still win. But we're making it harder on ourselves playing bad teams to the wire.

Expecting a somewhat passive game from LeBron, he has been tired. Plane rides immediately after the game can get the best of anyone. It's the reason for going to bed late, and jetlag.

We will see tonight.

This could be a trap game. The Pistons are not a good team, but we're on the second night of a back-to-back, we'll just fly in somewhen in the morning hours and our team is tired as it is. If Wade is healthy, I want him to play, but even if he's just 96.7%, he should still sit.

Couldn't see the last game, but if LeBron is fatigued then this game could be a little tough. You can tell LeBron is tired when he said "it's always good to have off days with this shortened schedule".If Wade doesn't return then we'll need bench players to step up and Bosh to continue to be stellar(if he isn't tired as well).

LeBron looks tired but Bosh looks ready to go. FEED the Bosh. Hopefully Wade can come back soon and we can give LeBron a week off. Also, Mario Chalmers can not handle the ball to often or else our offense is done.

Our team gets caught up into its own glits and glamour, we have a team that is capable of wining against subpar teams without the superstars. Mike, Shane, UD and Chalmers have all been starters. with Harris, cole and pitman they could beat the pistons. They need to not forget how to be starters and just ball out. Give our Superstars some rest

Man, if this were a decent team, I would say that we have a strong chance of losing.

But it's the Pistons.

:lol: Actually it seems playing garbage teams increases our chances of losing these days...

But yeah, a little sense of urgency for tonight would be nice. If anything just blow them out and rest the 4th.

After two straight lackadaisical games with no energy and playing down to competition, I'd really like to see some effort tonight.

ltereally ever road game is harder than it should be because the Heat bring out the biggest crowds and therefore the best out of the home team

its the way it is with this team, and yes this game is going to be tough. Tough enough having a back to back thousands of miles away, even tougher when its going to be the only sold out game of the year at the Palace.

Agreed. Bosh needs to have another good-shooting night, and hopefully Lebron is re-energized tonight.

Rio made me look stupid the last couple games after I complimented his improved handle. I like him putting it on the floor and calling his own number, but he shouldn't be passing up open shots to do it. I saw that a couple times last night and got mad.

I'd like to see Spo experiment more with the Cole-Rio backcourt. For small opposing backcourts, that pair would give us really good spacing and really good ball security. PEACE.

Still no Wade, tonight. Judging by Ira's tweets he's getting close to returning, though.

Ira's so great. Gives us a series of updates on how well Wade's moving around on the court...and tops it off with:

Coach Erik Spoelstra says Dwyane Wade will not play.
