Big game, probably the biggest so far this season.
Win would be sweet, especially with Spurs being in our heels and also us battling for the best record in the league.

LOL, I kinda messed up Bosh, but the others I think are quite good.

Let's see if Perkins can get a poster on LeBron and Wade now...both getting kicked in the face. :D

I just "found" this article on nba.com.

http://www.nba.com/heat/news/keeping_bl ... ef:nbahpt1

It describes how the Heat players, especially Joel Anthony and Bosh block shots AND keep them inbounds. Meaning they intentionally block a shot in a way that the Heat actually get the ball, instead of swatting it out of bounds or into the other teams hands.

They also compare some numbers to Ibaka's. I think Ibaka could learn something from them. Not that I would switch his shotblocking abilities with theirs, but still it's a nice skill to have.

Think this one is going to be really close, but we find a way to pull out a win at the end.

Bulls fan here, rooting for OKC tonight (2nd favorite team because of Durant & Russ), this is playoffesque atmosphere which I love and both teams are trying to send a message that they won't back down.

I honestly thought that the two flagrant calls weren't flagrants, just hard fouls, it just shows you the difference between the 90s and modern day NBA.

Heat are scary when the team is running like that and their crowd is actually awake

So mad about that 40 ft 3.

Call for a P&R, screen something, drive, anything but take that stupid long three.

Brooks is a moron.

I though we played well aside from Durant's 9 turnovers and Westbrook's 100 missed layups.
