10/21 Rockets vs. Heat (in Miami) 8:00PM TNT

Post #1 » by **DefenseWins** » Sun Oct 19, 2014 5:39 pm

Apparently this game is televised and around the media is it said to be a "dress rehearsal" for the Heat. I'm guessing that means they will try to play for real for their potential line ups, then the last game against Memphis they'll just sit out seeing as it's the last preseason game.

For those worried about Wade, he admits to being passive. Says he is trying to work himself in the offense. Basically letting the other guys do their thing and see how he can be molded into it. Says it's about the quality/efficiency of the shot, as opposed to just getting any shot.

Good. i expect him to be much more aggressive and lead this team when the real season starts. This team isn't winning ish with Bosh as the #1. The Heat are just deceiving themselves. Don't know why he's deferring to Bosh. That **** pisses me the **** off.

Shabazz Napier
6 G
12.7 PPG on 58% TS & 47% eFG
26.57 PER
27.0% USG

James Ennis
6 G
11.0 PPG on 70% TS and 60% eFG
26.25 PER
20.9% USG

They've been arguably the best rookies in the preseason.

Since it'll be on TNT. I'm guessing Shaq, Ernie, Kenny and Chuck won't be on it since its a pre-season game, right?

Will be tuned in. According to that Wade article in the Sun, Spo has begun installing packages for Wade in the offsense.

So hopefully he'll be more aggressive in this one as his role/opportunities in the offense become clearer.

D12 & Bosh might be going to war tonight...

Should be easy game for Wade since Haren will be guarding him

The hype is real. Time to get another W!

Please.

While Cole is still starting and playing, apparently he has some back issue...

Starting to wonder if this is why Napier has been getting more play time as usual... oh god

Hard to believe we nearly lost Bosh to these guys...

Lets get this W.

If Cole is injured and Chalmers is injured then why not start Cole. I remember when Wade would be injured they would start some scrub instead of the next best player to not "disrupt" the chemistry when he gets back. Always never liked that, I would rather have that good problem when someone emerges.
