Like last time I'll keep it short and simple.

Let's just win this game!

Key to the Win:

LeBron has been struggling lately and I think this game is where he comes out and play well. Wade and Bosh have been on a roll lately and hopefully I hope they can stay consistent because they have been key the to the win. Hopefully Battier sits out and coach Spo start Lewis again and Lewis comes out playing well he might not have the same performance that he had vs the Magic but hopefully a good one. Miami must defend against the Raptors. Also Miami needs to try to control the boards. The Raps have been on a roll lately beating some good teams so hopefully Miami slaps them with some reality and Miami get the W!

Your Miami Heat

And The Toronto Raptors

Good Luck Charm: Had to again!

Oh no didn't know Raps is our next game, It's over. :lol:

Joking aside, This should be a fun game. Heat should be little motivated considering to the fact that Raps was making some noise lately and also Raps playing inspired basketball right now so i expect this to be a close contest. Blowout or Not. Just Win!

I wonder if Wade plays? Probably not, but if he does we know the training staff thinks he's making progress.

Ira :

Wade said he will decide before Sunday's game against Toronto whether to play, but also said he "would be smart." So we'll see.

Top 2 teams in the east squaring off, should be a good one.

Do the Heat have what it takes to beat the beast of the east? We'll find out tomorrow.

Uh yeah... we need Wade to show up. They have been playing nice defense and scoring.. This isn't your same old Raps, at least not till after the All Star break when they come back to earth and get back on that treadmill.

I'm happy for those Raps fans but dayum their heads getting real big because of their recent play lol (I know the guy in this thread was joking, talking about other fans on their board).

I don't even know how this game will go. Just win.

Raps fans are too cute. I don't mind them talking ish, that franchise has been down in the dumps for too long. Let them enjoy their fun in the sun.

Raptors have the best defense in the league in the past 10 days.

Damn Rudy Gay is that much of a cancer, huh?

I always thought the dude was overrated as hell but how do you even describe results like this? :-?
