This is considered baiting. This is your only warning.

MIAMI—
Observations from Tuesday night's 94-90 loss to the Boston Celtics at AmericanAirlines Arena:
-- The Heat's offseason priority: How about an offensive coordinator?
-- Some of those possessions in the second half, and, to be honest, in the first half, were dreadful.
-- And, no, this had nothing to do with bringing Chris Bosh back.
-- Even though his struggles defensively more than offset his scoring and rebounding.
-- The remarkable part is how the Heat can be this deep into a season and starting their third different center in as many games.
-- And not playing either of the centers who started the previous two games.
-- No this isn't on LeBron James. He's been carrying a heck of a load, including Tuesday.
-- And Dwyane Wade was there at the finish, but he needed to be there earlier, far earlier.
-- Can they do it Thursday in Boston?
-- To be candid, it's starting to look like last season against Dallas.
-- Once it gets away from this team, and this coaching staff, it seems to stay away.
-- Doc Rivers over Erik Spoelstra might be the entire series.
-- Including designing a man-to-man that looked enough like a zone to frazzle the Heat.
-- This time Wade got off to a fast start, with seven early points.
-- And then missed his final six shots of the first half, yet another run of early struggles.

MIA would have beaten a fully healthy CHI and i still think they would have beaten SA and OKC
but this Boston team plays MIA to perfection, gets every critical bounce and makes every big 3 pointer
Those 3 pointers tonight? That's luck
We are flawed in the most critical positions, point guard and center.
We are losing this series because our coach and team is not mentally there
Wade has been bad every first half and it's killed us, then our coach doesn't play bosh late because he didn't think it fair; it's the playoffs we need all our best players in a critical game.
Sucks

Re: Game 5 Post Game/Vent Thread
At the end of the day, the Celtics is simply the better team, lesser top talent, but a much better coached TEAM.
the Heat is a team full of bad habits, both reg and post season. How they started Gm3 of this series, is exactly the same as how they end Gm2 of the last years finals, THEY PLAYED LIKE THEY HAVE WON THE SERIES ALREADY, and proved to be the beginning of a downturn.
Let's just hope it plays itself out differently this time, tho...i think no team is worthy of winning it all, when they will take a game off here and there in the playoffs.

There's just no way this guy can be real and believe everything he says...
This guy has to be an actor hired by Riley and company to troll us Heat fans... There's just no other explanation.
This coach... No excuse me... This video coordinator/actor is such a joke to me now that all I can do is laugh at him.

Re: Game 5 Post Game/Vent Thread
After piling up monster numbers through the first 40 minutes of this game, LeBron looked absolutely gassed down the stretch. While Wade went to work on offense, LeBron actually stood motionless on the baseline for consecutive possessions in the fourth quarter. That won't exactly help the narrative. And that Paul Pierce dagger 3 with 52 seconds left? That was on LeBron, too.
Checking his minutes... Ah, only 45:20 minutes? 6 more than the second Heat player (Wade)? That's on you Spo.

Re: Game 5 Post Game/Vent Thread
we're 1-7 in Boston in the big 3 era. One of the wins was game 4 of last year.

I know the numbers inflated because of the paint points
but I guess it's tired legs...
and our FT shooting even cost us some games. These guy's aren't even forwards (besides LBJ), they just miss their FT's.
But Bosh is our best FT shooter.
I hope to see him actually start and play more, because we need his SHOOTING ability.
We have tired legs because were chasing the Boston celtics ball movement. Our over help Defense is being exposed! Were playing exactly how Boston wants us to play on D. Its a JOKE that noone hasn't called Spo out on it.
which is why the system needs a complete overhaul, it works at the risk of player being tired or players getting hurt in games or in practice.
Doc rivers said that we can't move faster than the ball and he was right.

Re: Game 5 Post Game/Vent Thread
I am still mind boggled over the fact that Spo only gave Bosh 14 mins, dude was productive as hell and he toke him out for no reason. He seemed fine and he wanted to play. Like wtf?? At least let him enter a couple mins in the fourth. Just mind boggled. Oh and Spo's Post-Game interview "I think he may be able to play another hand full of minutes in game 6" ....... Seriously? It's all or nothing dumbass. Get him out there wow.

Re: Game 5 Post Game/Vent Thread
Oh well, I'm going to stop talking about this game and move on for Game 6, cause no matter what, I'm still rooting for a win. And Game 6 might be the last time we watch a Heat game till October.. so yeah.

Do you have the stat for our +/- when Bron sat? It's easy to rip Spo on the minutes, but what does anyone else suggest? Doc played Rondo every minute one game because he had to. When Lebron sat, we looked bad. Blame Spo's offense or blame Wade for being bad at running the offense without Bron on the court. Whatever the case may be, Spo tried to sit Bron early in the game and our lead evaporated. We never pulled out big enough to buy him another break after that. We sit Lebron for any period of time, and we're just not scoring. That's the reality of the situation when the bench is playing this bad. Bron can run the offense by himself, but Wade just ain't getting it done on his own. PEACE.

Checked the stats. LeBron is averaging 31.8Pts (50%FG) 10Reb 4Ast and Wade 22Pts (46FG) 5.2Reb 4.8 Ast. Even with LeBron's Ast down, those are still two pretty good stat lines. I wonder when someone got eliminated the last time while averaging 31.8-10 during a series. They better get that road W.

This.
The moron has no sense of urgency, and it shows in our players as well. This isn't some 12:00 noon on a Sunday in the middle of January game.
