We've played against top teams this year, just have to close out strong!

Btw, whenever I think of the Magic, Bron's 51 comes to mind:

EDIT:

Also highlights from 09 when Wade also dropped 50 just to get you guys pumped up

FFS, don't let us repeatedly leave them open from 3.

This game rests completely on how much we double Dwight and leave a 3pt shooter open, and how much help defense in general we give and leave a 3pt shooter open. I hope Spo adjust some of the defense so that we aren't leaving everyone open for 3 because just like GS did, Orlando will make Miami pay for that.

DO NOT DOUBLE DWIGHT.

Who gives a **** if he drops 50 on us. Id rather that then they rain threes all game.

Lets be honest here. The Heat organization still hasn't figured out 3 is greater than 2. So they'd rather double Dwight and leave Anderson, JJ, Nelson, Hedo, and just about anyone else wide open for 3. I don't get it in the least, but hopefully they adjust their game plan for tonight.

Last year we had a huge 20+ pt lead, and then went into the leaving open 3s and hero ball and they beat us. I truly hope they learned their lesson that night. But since they've done it many many times since idk... :-?

Just accept that it's going to happen. It will make your viewing experience less frustrating. I can live with Turkoglu and Nelson taking open shots all day. Anderson should light it up though. Pittman will shut down Dwight just like he did in the pre-season. Bosh will break out of his scoring slump and drop 20+

Heat by 30.

Haha so true, every time this team has a big lead, I throughly expect them to blow it and have the game tied again at some point. It just makes it easier.

Orlando has been a bad team lately. I want a blowout. I'm not talking about Cavs-style blowout. I mean I want us to win by 30. Let's go Heat! PEACE.

Cole gets his first start!!! Rio is inactive with a hand sprain. I'm one of the biggest Cole fans on here, but I'm hoping Rio is back active soon. PEACE.

The Miami HEAT
#HEATgame: Tonight's Inactive player vs the @Orlando_Magic is @MChalmers15 (Left hand sprain, he is day-to-day).

Tim Reynolds
Heat say Mario Chalmers out tonight with left hand sprain. Had it iced last night after hit in 3Q. Said afterward he wasn't worried.

Shame. He's been shooting extremely well as of late. Conventional wisdom would dictate that JJ gets some burn tonight, but Spoelstra isn't all that conventional.

:(

Last 3 games, Heat have given up an average of 6 3-pointers/game. Let's keep it in that area.

Sucks about Rio. Hopefully Cole steps it up tonight in his place. I hope this means well see some minutes from JJ and Harris.
