vs.

@

You! Stop looking at attractive women and make a shot!

You're a PG! Start acting like one!

Use those muscles and DUNK the damn ball! Don't go up like a softie!

Don't commit bad fouls! And don't miss free throws in the clutch. 45 man! 45!!

Get your money shot back! Bring back the cornrows if you have to.

And the rest of you! Show no mercy. If the Lakers want a fight? We'll give them one!

Keep doing what you're doing.

Oh yes, and Battier!

Guard this guy:

LET'S NOT SUCK!

Heat win.

Heat want to get back to those winning strides. I know Lakers play well at home, but if Bosh is back (HE BETTER BE BACK....) we win this...

I don't know, LeBron is just a beast against the Lakers. No one can guard him on that team lol.

And I hope Wade doesn't get an injury, it's inevitable the Lakers are going to knock him down when he drives to the basket.

That statement can be used for all 66 games this year honestly. If they win "eh they should've its the best team in the league." They don't win "Omg they're so overhyped they aren't good they need to trade away Wade."

It'd be great if CB was back.

Chalmers finding his shot, Miller being active and Cole playing with some basic awareness wouldn't hurt my feelings either.

Lebron's PER is now at 33.27. (P.S. - Its on 42.01 on my 2k12 my player mode

)

Don't want to see Pitt on the court until he learns how to f*kin jump!

I really need him to own Gasol.

IF CHRIS BOSH is back we stay relatively close and win the game at the end , if Bosh isn't back gonna get man handled on the rebounding just like we did against Utah. Hoping for a win and hoping to see Mario Chalmers hit some shots could have used him Friday night.

If Bosh is not back who do we start? We can't start Battier at PF against Gasol (even if LeBron would be the one guarding him). Unless we don't want to get any rebounds.

I just hope Bynum doesn't take any cheap shots on any of our players in retaliation for Wade's foul on Kobe.

If Bosh is back I'm very confident - just hope he's not rusty. Without him it will be tough but we're still capable of getting a win.

I'd start UD if Bosh isn't playing.

Even though it won't happen this could be an interesting line-up to use:
PG: Wade vs. Fisher
SG: Battier vs. Kobe
SF: LeBron vs. Barnes
PF: Haslem (Assuming Bosh is out) vs. Gasol
C: Anthony vs. Bynum

Wade gets to coast on defense/play the passing lines and we still have a good defender on Kobe. On offense, Kobe switches over to defend Wade while Battier is defended by Fisher.

Edit -
Big 3 highlights last time the Heat were in L.A.

Agreed.

So right now I'm listening to the radio and all these idiot's are calling in talking about how we're going to get pounded inside and dominated on the boards. Ever since we got the Big 3 we've been winning the battle on the boards.

Last game Bynum and Gasol combined for 41 points and 20 rebounds on 17/32 shooting (53%). They average 26 shots per game combined on the season and that's rounded up. How much more damage can they do?

We still beat them on the boards 44-38 in total and 15-12 on the offensive glass that game.

The time before that (@ Miami 2011) we beat them 46-37 in total and 18-13 on the offensive glass.

The time before that (@ L.A. 2010) we beat them 44-43 in total and tied at 9-9 on the offensive glass. Bynum was coming back from injury this game so he only played 17-18 minutes. We beat them pretty badly though.

Hoping for a good game

TRG · Post #18 » by **TRG** » Sun Mar 4, 2012 2:09 am

I'm expecting a blowout win after last night's upsetting loss.

Or maybe I'm just hoping... Blah who cares.

Post #19 » by **DefenseWins** » Sun Mar 4, 2012 2:22 am

Does anyone know if Bosh is coming back? I hope so man.... not just because we'd be facing the Lakers, but this team just looks weird without him. Too small.

FlashTheKilla · Post #20 » by **FlashTheKilla** » Sun Mar 4, 2012 2:47 am

Well...I didn't say "trap game" against the Jazz and we lost.

So...this is clearly a trap game.
