Unbelievable some people still have hopes for Beasley. They definitely didn't watch him play for 82 games like we did.

Beasley is gonna beast this time around. They are gonna keep him for the rest of the season and he's gonna be a major factor in helping the Heat advance to the 2nd round of the playoffs.

If Beasley plays more than 20 minutes a game it will be enough to cause Miami to miss the playoffs entirely.

Without Bosh they are likely to miss the playoffs anyway. They only have a game and a half lead on Charlotte and a 2 1/2 game lead on four other teams. And Detroit looks to definitely make it. Brooklyn should be much improved with Young as well.

Hopefully Beasley is still playing for the Heat in 2021 when we have their unprotected 1st. We will draft the next LeBron with that pick and be set for 20 years. 8-)

NBA took back the T they gave Marcus in the denver game, It really does seem refs have no patience with the morris brothers, willing to give them Ts even for no reason.

•The NBA rescinded the technical foul that Suns forward Marcus Morris received in Wednesday night's game at Denver. Morris, who has seven technical fouls this season, was talking to Hornacek in the second quarter when he received the technical foul.

Dragic with 18 pts on 8-11 shooting. All 8 shors have been layups. Other than Westbrook, what other guard in the NBA can do something like that?

Goran is very good at finishing at the rim. Last year for the Suns (when we played well) he was taking a high percentage of his shot at the rim, and converting them at high efficiency. He is very good around the rim.

Russel Westbrook is unbelievable, they playing on a back to back and he played like 42 mins last night and yet he's ripping apart the Blazers defense on the road.

27 pts, 10 rebounds and 11 assists for Westbrook on the road against Portland and game is barely into the 4th QTR.

Yea but he racks up assists and rebounds like its a piece of cake. How the hell is it that easy for a player who is barely 6'3?

And the last free throw shot was selfish of the year. Brooks changed big guys into the court to get offensive rebound but RWB put it in and they lost. Noob.

He tried to miss it....that's why he ran towards the rim right after he shot it too.

I love watching Westbrook play. There is not one single thing he can't do on the court. However, if he wants his team to be more succesfull, he needs to be a better point guard, in the old-fashioned way. Look at Wall last year and this year. Not much difference in the numbers, but if you watched their games last year and this it's clear as it can get... only a cpl less FGA (with better shot selection, thus higher %), and about 1.5 assists better, but I believe this is what it's about for a mature superstar at the PG position, who really understands what he needs to do in order to make his team better. Westbrook could get there, and be better at it (heck, he has KD on his team), just needs to realize that even though he might be the best player on the court (when KD is not on fire), he can do more, and achieve more if his teammates are a bit more envolved.

I didnt see that happened in live picture. Looked like he was in his own world and not even noticed who was changed in etc. Arrogant style but thats ok if wins coming.
