[PaulieWal]

Lmao saying Cole sucks and LeBron should get some rest is panicking nobody is saying we can't win the NBA title but Cole ia terrible and so is Rashard our 3 pt shooting is way too inconsistent.

Exactly. Most just went to rest LeBron. Before somebody says he's the world best basketball player and knows what he's doing, sometimes a player needs to be saved from himself. Also, it was known after that he was fatigued during the Dallas Finals and Rick Carlisle was extremely HAPPY when we decided to put LeBron on Terry. They WANTED Spo to do it and Spo did exactly that. So now with 4 seasons in 3 years + the Olympics you are telling me this guy can't fatigued again. Hell, he has looked fatigued during many RS games and looked dead tired last night in the second OT.

Cole has been regressing each month, but no no, we are foolish and overreacting. In 2012, we were the small athletic team. Now we are much older, our role players are older and on their last legs or have regressed, other teams have caught up to our defensive scheme and we continue to give multiple wide open shots every single game, and LeBron is being overused. More worryingly, Wade's health is a big question mark right now.

I still think we got a good chance to 3peat simply cuz we got LeBron but our margin of error is extremely small and we will need more things to go our way.

During the early part of the season I was fine it was early and the team was coasting. But the playoffs are almost here and off a 4 game win streak I thought the team was finally in a rhythm and then we drop a very winnable game with 2 chances to win that's so unlike this team.

I really want to get the lineup and rotation going and get all the players rounding into form for the playoffs especially Wade and our shooters.

Spoelstra said he will evaluate James' playing status on daily basis.

"I'm taking everything day by day," Spoelstra said. "That's the world we live in right now."

This was from a couple nights ago. So after logging 48 minutes in a double OT, let's see what he does.

Lebron will play tomorrow.

[LBJ-ITALY]

I love how some of you act like everything is a panic. Acting like Ray Allen didn't save our asses last year. The team is struggling, our coach is clueless and pathetic, we got lucky last year, PLAIN AN SIMPLE LUCKY! Fans were going freaking home lol until Allen saved our asses and the million criticism coming Lebron and Spo's way!!

But no, some of you guys act as if we dominated the Playoffs lol. This team keeps playing the way they are playing, this coach keeps trouting out these ridiculous rotations, and we will not be winning squat this year. Then you calm posters are gonna be on here crying.

We also lost to a much less talented Mavs team, ONE GUY beat us, cuz spo couldn't figure anything out, just continued to let Dirk dominate us, let a scrub ass PG in Barrera break our stupid headless chicken defense down.
No adjustments whatsoever.

Some of you need to get over yourselves and stop acting like this team is unstoppable. Right now we are no where near title favorites.

Lebron is too tired to 3peat. He needs to go to sleep for a while.

No you're absolutely right Norris Cole is a great player and our rotation is flawless.

I believe in the team and believe in the 3peat but this team has noticeable problems and you know it.

When have I ever said this? Did you miss my post during the game where I said Cole sucked?

Have I denied that? I know this team is less than perfect, but certain people act like we're as bad as the Knicks after a loss.

That's true my only problem with the team right now is inconsistency and Cole getting way too many minutes.

Portland needs a coach.. Spo went to high-school and college there.. Make it happen, Pat.

[RJM]

Sure, let's send David Fizdale over there, because our head coach is just fine.

We're one of the healthiest teams in the playoffs 3 years running. The Big3 continue to average new career lows in minutes each season. It's not a fluke.

This thread reads like panic, plain and simple. Some of you are straight making **** up to justify your hysteria. Bron will get rest. Do any of you know the date of the first playoff game? It's not next week, that's for sure. LeBron only needs like a week or so, at most. He's the toughest guy in the league, he's the least of the team's worries. The East bracket doesn't look like an issue at all. I just want everyone healthy and Wade ready for 16 wins.

I like that they are at least testing Cole's limits, otherwise they wouldn't know how much they can depend on him.
