[miamivice]

about to open yet another can of whoop ass, your miami heat...
















against the visiting pacers...













for old time's sake:





now that those **** talked some **** and got their **** **** handed to them, let's step this **** **** up for bosh and **** them up before heading to their **** shithouse...

[HEATindaHouse]

With Bosh out I guarantee we'll drop some games on the road..

That why this game is so important ....
plus the ref will be back in our corner
b/c who want to see Boston vs Indiana match -up ..just kidding..

Heat in Six....
But I like to see our Bigs take some of there players to the ground...

[BIRDMAN BIRDMAN]

Let's whoop their ass.

[WD]

might have to make a statement this game

[Grumpy Heat Fan]

Anyone else -love- the 2 man game by LeBron and Wade when Bosh was out?

[RhapidKid]

So much smack talking and they still lost at the end of the day. I'll be interested in seeing their comments pre-game 2.

Not really. I'm glad they stepped up big, but you really think it's good for them to carry on that way for the rest of the series with chances of major wear and tear? Those minutes? It won't be a good look but we may just have to deal with it unless the role players step up. Lebron getting 15 rebounds and providing 30+ points on the offensive side, all while guarding the Pacers best player is incredible, but too much to expect each night. Want to see Rio/Miller rain 3's and Haslem not suck so much. Other guys need to step up with the rebounding as well, Hibbert/West ate us alive.

Wear and tear? This is like the first game for this playoffs that Wade n Bron had to play 40+ minutes lol. These guys are professionals, I'm sure they will be fine.

Oo and compared to Melo, Danny Granger is hardly a difficult assignment. All we need to do is play good team basketball and we win in 6.

[NoComparison]

LeBron played the entire 2nd half.. Spo gotta manage his minutes better, if you're gonna play LBJ for the entire 4th quarter, rest him 3 minutes before the end of the 3rd quarter or something.

And these role players need to step the fck up, we're relying too much on LBJ/WADE. Their legs are gonna be tired again soon or later.

[DefenseWins]

have to win this game. Our sorry ass bench has to step up.

This is the 2nd round, step up BATTIER AND MILLER.

Turiaf and Joel had good energy off the bench. Even nice layups LOL.

MIller can't even make a layup. So terrible.

LeBron playing the whole 2nd half... ugh this series better be over in 4-5 for rest for the ECF.

lol Granger... the only time Granger scored is when LEBron was too late to close out on him, and it was a 3. Other than that, Granger can't do SQUAT on him

LeBron was on David West at the end though, while Battier was on Granger. I forgot how that went , he didn't score though.

But just win this game.... let's all hope and pray Bosh is okay. He just twisted his body cause of stupid Hibbert trying to be so physical. I think it's just a pull. He will be sore but out of the whole playoffs?! I just don't know... I hope not.

I'm in awe we won the rebounding battle, and it's with LeBron leading the way. He might have to be PF for this whole series if Bosh is out for this series.

This was my point whether you were being funny or not

No...that wasn't what you said. You were either blaming Lebron for working harder than other guys (lolwut?) or Spo for supposedly "brain-washing" them to " always give Lebron the pass FIRST", which I haven't seen at all. If you are saying Spo should have made adjustments with other guys on the floor or something to that sort I can entertain that idea, but the LACK OF EFFORT from the guys who were playing is on them. Whether it's scoring, rebounding, or defending, the role players MUST do better because we can't expect this type of production on two guys on a consistent basis. With Bosh out we know that the minutes will remain high for those two regardless, but how much of the load they are expected to carry is dependent on what the role players do.

Bosh heal up Bosh heal up Bosh heal up

If Bosh can be back for the ECF all will be okay.

Hopefully we finish with the Pacers in 4-5.. probably 5. We never sweep anyone lol.


hope it doesn't go to 6. need rest.

[NoComparison]

Im sure you guys here know I'm very critical of Bosh's game but this is a huge loss.. I hope the injury is nothing serious.

[Pimpwerx]

Bosh's MRI is tomorrow. I hope it's not bad news.

If we can play defense with the intensity and effort we saw in the second half, we will take Game2 easily. Their offense ground to a halt.

Wade and Bron have to attack continuously. The Pacers strategy of playing physical will backfire on them with the foul trouble we can get them into. It's not easy with the beating they'll take, but it's our best plan IMO.

Rio needs to get active off the ball. He's also gotta start taking those open looks. Ditto for Miller.

I liked the effort once Bosh went down. Everyone got more serious and tried harder. More of that and we can maybe secure a sweep and get real rest. Let's go Heat! PEACE.

[HEAT111]

The way I see it. If Bosh does miss the entire series. LeBron is going to show Larry Bird why he should've said teaming up with LeBron to win instead of for fun. Bosh comes back in time for the ECF to go against Celtics to have our third wheel burn Kevin Garnett.

[diablerouge]

if bosh is out for an extended period of time or even the rest of the playoffs, i would start lebron at the 4.
