I'll take it, this could have been a lot worse. Al gonna hit a three this century right? We need A3za to show up in the 2nd half.

If Ariza shows up and Bosh shows some mortality from the perimeter, we may have a chance, but lots of things to fix defensively. I also wish we drove harder to the rim. Outside of LBJ, they're a fairly soft team. No need to feel intimidated by them...well maybe Haslem, he's a bit of a goon now.

Yep, just what I was saying. So lame. The front rows are empty with nobody clapping, and fake noise getting pumped in. At least we take our boos and opposing cheers like grown ups, and when the squad deserves it our crowd goes berserk.

How many blown assists have there been?

Wall should have at least 7 assists.

So you'd rather have him guard LeBron? We should place a bigger player on him like Singleton or BOoker, especially when he starts posting up. Let Porter play some minutes as well.


I meant in general. Webster has been ass lately and a major defensive liability.

Hard to beat the Heat when LeBron is dominating, Wade's penetration is running on all cylinders and Bosh isn't missing. Especially when 3 out of our starting 5 are no-shows on offense.

Hopefully, the same law of averages that saw LeBron explode today shows up on our end in the 2nd half.

I know Singleton is a better matchup for down-low LeBron than Webster, but I hate seeing Singleton on the floor offensively. Of course, if Webster is ice cold in the second half, I wouldn't be surprised to see Wittman give Singleton a shot.
Always remember, my friend: the world will change again. And you may have to come back through everywhere you've been.

One of the saddest fan bases in the NBA. Every time I drive down there for a game I cannot believe how poorly that team is being supported by the locals.

I will say this: Miami is among the best at running out at shooters. The real issue is that the Wiz let Miami shoot 7-12 from deep. Also, Wiz shot 7 FTs on 50 shot attempts. Gotta do a better job at attacking when they cover the weak side.

Whats with all the Webster hate in this thread?? Looking at the numbers Webster has had about an equal season to last, and currently has the teams best offensive rating. He can be a defensive liability I'll admit, but isn't completely useless on that end.

Either way, this Miami team looks by far the weakest of the superfriends era. Definitely don't see them threepeating unless LeBron has the postseason of his life.

This is gonna be a loss, but I'd like to see us continue to be aggressive and limit the mistakes.

Miami's defense is really pesky when they wanna be, but we're just shooting ourselves in the foot

Which is why we're gonna get owned in the playoffs against any tough defense..

If we had an elite post player, Miami would be getting burned every single time on those Wall double teams.
