Today I don't feel the Jah. Crap performance. Really disappointing and reminds me of the worst fear I have in relation to the team: that we are the same as last year and that the "improvement" is illusory.
I don't think this team can be as bad as last year, at least by the fact that they are healthier this year (so far). But yeah, I can see some of the same issues as last year -- most notably the offensive stagnation.
I still wanna give it some more time for them to gel...but I can also understand why some Heat fans are less hopeful.

We face Det a month from now, dont want to wait that long. This chit team just got hot from the 3 out of the norm. Also our leaders were complete ghost-like. We could have easily had their number. I guess sense of urgency should carry out on Friday, so that's always good.

Re: HEAT [9-4] @ PISTONS [7-7] 11/25 7:30PM EST
The game was starting to swing our way in the beginning of the 2nd quarter. We were down by 17, TJ gets two consecutive 3 point and 1s.And forced a turnover. But with that forced turnover and TJ getting us back into the game. Spo subs him out!!'
LMAO! That was the absolute worst coaching I've seen all year. Classic case of predetermined rotations set at a set time. Even a blind man can see that TJ was dominating his match up, gaining some serious confidence and not to mention getting us back into the game. And Spo takes him out! Spo literally stopped him mid clapping and cheering and told him to take a seat LOL I can't with this coach.
This wasn't the reason we lost. But this coach does this all the time. The guy has it going you leave him out there. Screw your damn predetermined to the pin substitutions.

I can't understand how last year's 10 day contract Hassan gets twice as many touches as 2015-2016 Hassan. We should be nurturing and developing his offensive game during actual games, but no instead we'll have to wait next offseason for some heat.com instagram video of Hassan and Juwon Howard ticking each other in the post at practice.

Did anyone else burst out laughing in amusement and pain when Eric Reid so calmly stated following a McScrub 3pt basket....."and McRoberts surpasses his season average of 2 points per game with that three"

I saw that and had the same reaction. It made no sense at all.

I remember 11-30 with these guys. ^

Re: HEAT [9-4] @ PISTONS [7-7] 11/25 7:30PM EST
Gruesome loss, nothing more to be said. What shocks me the most is actually that we don't see the urgency in guarding the three-ball, they made those easily throughout the whole game. Double-teaming Andre in the paint (or at all) wouldn't hurt either...
Well, Knicks up next, they've been losing lately so hopefully they're out of confidence for now. They always seems to be a tough match-up for us in the Garden though...

Eric and tony noted that TJ looked exhausted at that moment...
**** spo for causing all the pistons players to make their 3's. And **** spo for starting green and screwing up our defense.

Some lack of effort, but mainly lack of talent and where talent isn't missing age has taken over - we are getting nowhere fast.

Just an awful night all around.....and as has become the norm around here, the other team shoots a percentage above their norm against us. Combine that with Wade & Bosh being no-shows, you get what you got last night. Just burn the tape and play like you care @NY on Friday.

The Dragic-Wade is not working well by the eye-test so far, mainly because Dragic dribbles and dribbles and dribbles and doesn't create much with it. I'd much rather have Johnson start next to Wade and have Wade as the primary ball handler. That'd give Wade a lot more rhythm and a lot more opportunities to actually attack in high pick and rolls, which is one of his biggest strengths. Let Dragic lead the 2nd unit, but let TJ be the one who defends the stronger guard and who feeds off of the starters with his good shot and penetration.
Aside of that, we need a clear pecking order on offense and as it goes for the starters, that's Wade/Bosh, then Whiteside, then the rest depending on who's on fire. It's the same bulls*** every time. One of Wade/Bosh/Whiteside struggles and we completely go away from them, despite them being our strongest options offensively.

wade is terrible one game, great the next. overall tho he is now avg. 20mil role player. next game he will score 25/5/5 but the following one he will go 2/13 again. and he thinks he is kobe shooting 20footer bricks.

Re: HEAT [9-4] @ PISTONS [7-7] 11/25 7:30PM EST
A loss like this takes me back to last year's trade deadline....
"Oh, cool, we finally got an above average point guard. Maybe he can be an all star in the east!"
20 minutes later...
"Oh, wow Phoenix got Brandon Knight for the Lakers pick and Tyler Ennis. I guess we couldn't do that, but Philly would've taken the two first rounders for MCW and we couldn't given them Cole or Chalmers or Napier (they're all better than Ennis)."
10 minutes after that....
"Wow, Phoenix also traded Li'l Isaiah and his fantastic contract, which would help out 2016 plans, for a crappy first round pick."
a few minutes later...
""Detroit got Reggie Jackson for Kyle Schindler, Saint Augustine, and a 2nd round pick?"
