I ain't gonna lie. This ish could get ugly.

I think keys will be
- Kirk vs SG
- Does Wade play?
- Miami's depth
- Smith vs Bosh; the mere presence of Bosh's length made Smith alter his shots on his way to shooting 4 for 12. He also kept trying to bring the ball up to make up for his lack of production in halfcourt.
- Also Marvin was 2-9 and 2-5 from 3PT land. Can Marvin give us something
- Idk if Josh gets in a groove like vs West or can slash like Obaka but he likely has to find a way to adjust.
- We are Away. Miami will definitely get TONS of home cooking from the refs. Hopefully, we keep the game close and stay healthy as we move along this road trip.

Roy Hibbert only makes Miami more dangerous, so yes, it could get very ugly.

[HMFFL]

Miami is favored to win by 11.5 points.

I just noticed that. Maybe he demanded a trade in the morning so he can get back at Zaza for the eye gauge.

Just compete and I am okay.

[Ruhiel]

My bad I was in a rush Good eye.

[azuresou1]

I can't see any way we don't get crushed... just being realistic.

[ATL Boy]

There's just something about the Heat that absolutely disgusts me whenever I watch them

[ATL Boy]

I also predict we get screwed big time by the refs (again)

Oh wait that feeling is just LeBit*h

[Ruhiel]

dammit.

[Ruhiel]

Heat up 7...Smith struggling inside. Hawks getting nothing much inside, Vlad chucking. LD twiddling thine thumbs.

[Ruhiel]

Heat are in Smallball and ATL doing good! Heat have some flaws (iso)

Come on we can pull this out.

[ATL Boy]

did that just happen? Lebron pushed Ivan to the ground and they called it on Ivan

[HMFFL]

We must get to the free throw line. It's not that difficult!

The guys are getting fouled they're just not getting the calls

Have our Hawks been pump faking and putting their body into the Heat defenders? I've only been able to go by the box score.

The Heat have been able to hack at the ball with immunity. You don't have to bite on a pump fake if you can rake at the ball in the player's hands without any fear of a whistle.

Very true.

Dallas, thank you for letting me know. It seems like the typical bull with Miami, and the refs that allow it.
