2nd seed locked anyway. I heard LeBron couldn't even get around shoot around yesterday, he really needs the rest.

Time to watch the ugliest basketball of all time. Houston Rockets are better than the Wizards too so, this might be a blowout big time.

I don't like that we're resting all of the big 3. We need to win out if at all possible. I'm not worried about home court vs. the Bulls, but if we could have it against OKC in a potential finals matchup, that would be huge. They feed off their crowd more than maybe any team in the league.

EDIT: Windy tweet 5 hours ago that LeBron is expected to play, Wade will not, and Bosh is a maybe.

Nah, just placeholders. I assume Wade is definitely out though. PEACE.

EDIT: Thanks zogster.

What a shame. Time to make:

Wish he had signed with us. Big Pitt will be critical against him and Patterson tonight. C'mon Sammy, you could have been resting for the post season right now :(.

That's true. Well good then, I was expecting a loss but now we have a fighting chance. :D

While I think it would be ugly as **** and a loss, it was entertaining watching the bench play alone.... idk. I think they need the rhythm come playoff time. Lol.

I don't think the Rockets would draw 101 charges against us so... we should be more fluid...

Erik Spoelstra says Dwyane Wade will sit out and LeBron James will play. Chris Bosh and Ronny Turiaf still out.

The Rockets haven't played well as of late but are in a desperate position to reach the playoffs. This could be a blowout going either way.

WHAT?????!!!!!

I hope this just means Mario is sort of resting.... no way Cole should **** even start a game after his disgusting performance last night.

Yes. Mario needs a bit of rest, I'll think that.

Norris Cole starting at PG for Heat in place of Chalmers. Spoelstra didn't mention change to media pregame. Mario's now in maintenance?

Please tell me its to rest Chalmers and for no other reason. Either that or World Peace flew out to Miami real quick and gave Spo and elbow to the head.

I can't stand watching Cole these days. :banghead:

Watching Cole nowadays is so bad. Just this undersized SG running around chucking and turning the ball over. Please let this be because Mario is in maintenance LOL.

Oh lots of time for Pitt ... not 14 mins either. Twelve points in 14 minutes and never sees the floor in the 4th LOL fail.

Return to Miami Heat
