I will bounce back from these struggles. In the time of adversity i gotta preform so watch me get back to being me on the court Love my team

[Flashpoint]

I would love to see us play 4 quarters one day. It would be so magnificent it might just destroy the game of basketball. Fun win today. Brooklyn came at us and we kind of swatted them down like a fly. Great to see some vintage Wade. I don't want to get my hopes up, but if he can just be this consistently again...

Also my boy Norris decided to hush you doubters a bit as he works things out. Great energy out there.

It's also amazing how Ray has gone from a player I liked and respected in the league to one of my all-time favorite Heaters in the span of a couple months. He hits those late 3's so easily.. it's just a beautiful, elegant way of saying **** you to the opposition.

I don't post in these game threads during the game but I do read through them after the games for a little chuckle. So many damn over reactions you would of thought we were the Wizards!

[LBJ-ITALY]

Nice win and I'm very happy to see Wade playing great again,but this team needs a legit big man!

I dont think there is a BB fan in the league that hates or has ever hated Ray Allen the guys is just a baller and the definition and example of skill vs talent. So many talented players, few that are skilled and a machine like Ray. Didnt get to watch the game tonight but heard Wade and Norris played well. Brooklyn is a good team and im sure their fans are happy. Blatche had another good game, he has been playing well for them. Glad we got the win. next.

that Allen to Wade Oop over Humphries one of the prettiest poster dunks by Wade ever. Add that to the all time highlight real.

This is the first game where Miami's really looked like the Miami we're used to, and it all comes back to Wade's effort.

QFT.

Loved Wade's game. not because of his scoring, just loved the effort. only took 1 bad shot all night.

LOVED HIS EFFORT

Left Johnson open for only 2 threes

he isnt going to look like this every game, but if the effort is there GREAT!

That was amazing. As Ray threw the lob I was thinking "No, no, no...YES!"

Just watched the game.

Thought the second quarter was key. Spo made some good decisions keeping Cole in instead of the struggling Chalmers for on ball defense. Williams did not like the energy Cole brought and he got outworked little by little. He also gave MIller extended minutes to help with the non-existing rebounding outside of Lebron which was much needed at the time and he took a lazy Bosh out for Anthony. Yeah lol. Fun game to watch, best one so far this season.

That was miami heat basketball in the 2nd half..

Brooklyn is gunna be a team to be reckoned with for sure. Our two games against them haven't been indicative of their true potential. In the first meeting, they were still building chemistry, and last night they didn't have arguably their second best player. They have the type of pieces that can give any team trouble including us.

Miami looked like the team we're used to with LBJ and Bosh having off games?

I don't understand, but If I had to guess, I think it's just the obsessive focus on Wade's scoring instead of focusing on his overall game.

I mean, how does Miami look like the Miami we're used to with Bosh going 2-8 and LBJ scoring only 21pts (I don't even think LBJ had a FG in the 1st quarter).

Also, I don't think people even realize we were playing from behind until half way through the 3rd quarter. That's not the Miami we're used to.

The second half was more like the Miami we're used to. But there's no question that we could be much better, especially when you factor Bosh's off game. Anyone else think that the Nets could possibly an iffy matchup for Bosh? Or do you think it's purely coincidence? I don't know if anyone touched on it during the GT, but this is the second matchup we've had against Brooklyn, and it's the second time Bosh has had a poor outing.

Not like his overall game was any better than his scoring before yesterday. His defense and offense were both poor.
