heat @ nuggets 12/30/13 - 9pm est 

Post#1 » by miamivice » Sun Dec 29, 2013 8:40 am

up until last november, the heat hadn't won in denver for over a decade. then we reversed the trend with wade sitting out and chalmers getting injured in the first quarter. lebron went for 27 pts and 12 assists, and battier scored 18 pts solely with his three point shooting.

denver is on a 6 game skid. we're coming off an emotional and redemptive win after chalmers pulled a boner and cost us an 8 game streak and the chance to surpass the celtics for all-time consecutive wins against the western conference.

will bird man and lebron be healthy enough to play?

let's not suck...

Sit LeBron, let him go home for his birthday and play Wade light minutes, trust Bosh.

Nuggets have lost 6 in a row, they might try to bounce back against us

we always suck in Denver though...

It'd be nice to escape this West Coast trip at 4-1 though lol

I'd like to see LBJ rest for his birthday, but I wouldn't put it past him to play even if he isn't exactly 100%. Those groin injuries are nothing to mess with......

Denver's been woeful, but playing in Denver has always been a ***** for us, and Nate Robinson is on the team now. I don't think we've ever played in Denver with a full healthy team...

This could be one of those letdown games after a big win in Portland, especially in Denver, a place we traditionally lose at. Let LeBron rest and guilt trip Wade for his a** game against the Blazers, maybe he can make up for it here and we can pull out another nice win.

It'd be nice for Wade to actually play in a Denver road win for the first time in his career. God, that place has sucked for us.

I imagine LeBron would be ready to go, but there's no sense in risking anything. Let him eat cake (brioche) if needed. :D

Finish the trip right.

pepsi center is always rough for us but its lebrons bday, if he plays you know he wants to put on a show. the nuggets are playing bad right now and that blazers win is sure to give us some confidence in these last 2 road games before going back home

This will be a tough game. No better team to bounce back from a losing streak than against the Miami Heat. Nuggets will be looking for blood.

Raptors are my team, but I'm a fan of Lebron/Bosh. If raptors don't win(which will be the case) I want Miami taking it again this year. I'm hoping you guys get Bynum cuz Lebron has been forced to do too much and it's finally starting to come around him, come playoffs, they'll need bigs to rebound and defend Hibbert.

I see nothing wrong with rooting for another team as long as you don't turn your back on the team you originally root for.

Welcome aboard.

Oh of course not lol I'm a die hard raptors fan, been their fan for too long and I'm not one of those that would leave them. Whenever we play the heat I want us to destroy them. However, I have been Lebrons fan ever since people started hating on him and I continue to cheer for ex raptors including VC/ Bosh.
