Game 5 Post Game/Vent Thread

[cb1]

Doc rivers is running circles around Spo. Why can't people see this crystal clear? He watched all our playoff games in 48 hours. He knows Spo's defense. He has us figured out. No matter how hard we play, he knows where to put his guys to succeed. If we had him, we win the ring last year. This **** is basically over because what's going to change now?

[WadeInTheWater]

Spoelstra doesn't get it, he just doesn't. He can't create a play that will get 2 of the best players of all time an open look when we needed it.

The only thing Spo knows is ISO

Good thing I've aged a couple years since we lost in 2005.

As pissed off as I am right now, it would have been a lot worse a few years back. At the end of the day it's just a game. These guys will drive back to their multi-million dollar homes in their $100K cars

Got that right...But if this is the way the "Big 3" era ends,it has been one gigantic TEASE.

I really, genuinely like Spoelstra. The guy works his ass off and is really smart. He's got to go. Just not ready.

[Heliumiami]

I hope espn is wrong. Bosh couldnt have possibly played 12 'mins.

I heard 14 minutes

[DWadeno3]

Seriously, this Lebron or Wade bashing needs to stop.
The coach is an idiot. That's where everything starts, and it should end because how can you blame a player who's not getting the right playcalls to begin with.

This. Those two had 20 of our 32 field goals and combined for 57 points. You can't ask for much more than that. Wade had a bad first half, LeBron had a bad second half. Usually a good half from each one should be enough to carry us to victory. The problem is just Boston has a very good gameplan and we have yet to counter any of their moves. I don't wanna put it all on Spo, but I just see the Celtics do the same stuff over and over again. Our role players have surely contributed to our misery though. It's pissing me off when you gotta jump up and down like somebody just hit a gamewinner when one of Battier, Miller, Jones or even Chalmers hits a three. Since we don't have a true center, we rely that much more on good floorspacing provided by those guys. The Celtics are daring us into those shots, very well knowing it's our weakness and sometimes, there's just not much you can do about it other than finally make some open outside shots.

[NoComparison]

NoComparison-Did he really say that in the post game? if so. WOW

nahhh lol i was only joking.

[DefenseWins]

Bosh played 14 minutes.

And LeBron played 45 minutes


SPO IS A MORON I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW PEOPLE CAN DEFEND HIM LOL

[DrVanNostrand]

This team doesn't have heart and the coach doesn't have a brain.

...you forgot the cowardly lion.

Nuetral fan here.

How is it Spoelstra fault the guys cant hit open 3's? Wade and Lebron drive and kick all the Celtics players come to help leaving a 3 point shooter open every time. They had good looks all day just didnt fall.

It is mandatory that he rests LBJ at one point during the 2nd half

[Tien]

I don't understand Spoeltra....

[TRG]

I'm laughing... I'm actually laughing at how much of an epic fail this whole Big 3 project is going to be if (when?) we lose Game 6. This franchise is going to be a joke for years.

Is this real life? I feel emptier than a kid who just lost his dog...

[Heliumiami]

I would almost root for the Heat to lose if it meant replacing Spotard with a real coach. I can't believe the missed free-throws and the complete lack of offensive continuity.

[cb1]

this team lost in the Finals huh? they don't act like it. Boston wants it more obviously, even making the big shots and plays, even out-hustling us on our home floor

if Bosh gets his groove back into the line up playing more, we can win the next 2 possibly.... but Spo is still our coach... against Doc Rivers....

This. No matter how hard you play, your coach can't **** up otherwise you still lose.

[twozeroMM]

I really...REALLY want to hear Spo's BS excuses right now

He's probably going to say some **** like we couldn't get over the hump.

[youngeman]

Jerry Sloan a real coach. This coach has no feel for the game. Takes bosh out who is hot. Cole out who playing great defense. Wade should have played the point. lebron should never be at the PF. it should have been Haslem and bosh. i never want to see Joel on my TV screen. Lebron was on fire the 1st quarter then coach spo sits Lebron down.

i can see it crystal clear, ive been bashing Spo for years now.

Fck this clown whos wasting primetime of our BIG 3.

Must-win on Thursday. Tonight wasn't a confidence-booster. If The Others can't show up at home, that's not a good sign.

Whatever. I'm not even mad, and I'm not even worried. If we lose, it will not be Bron's fault. The common thread between this season and last season is the supporting cast sucking ass. That's pretty much it.

If the shooters can't hit their shots, we're done. If they do, we move on.

I'll tip my hat to Boston. They've shown more heart than we have over the last 3 games. Tonight, we didn't concede a big lead early, but they still rallied to win. They're finding ways to win, while we're finding ways to lose. Disappointing, but on to the next one. PEACE.

Do you find Spo's decision to not rest LBJ in the 2nd half wrong?

you just cannot expect shooters to make shots when they get so few and inconsistent shot attempts and playing time - seriously

[OtW]

Bosh had 9 pts, 6 rebounds in however many minutes he played in, 5 OF THEM OFFENSIVE BOARDS!!!!
