Wade doesn't get back on defense after a miss, again, Westbrook takes it the other way and gets his pocket picked, and Wade gets an easy two on the other end. Not feeling good about this one.

Our offense looks like trash. It's dribble, dribble, dribble...throw up a contested jumper as the shot clock winds down.

That's a load of crap. He jumped into Waiters. What a terrible call.

Of course he made it. He's playing the Thunder. Tonight he's 2011 or 2012 Dwyane Wade.

Would be nice to have one of those 4 turnovers in the last 3-4 minutes back.
“If you're getting stops and you're making threes and the other team's not scoring, that's when you're going to see a huge point difference there,” coach Billy Donovan said.

Hold the ball for 15 seconds, shoot a three and brick it.

Only we would commit a foul on a shot with 1.5 seconds to go.

Another loss. Another close loss.

Us. We're the only team in the league to consistently beat ourselves.

We should start a go-fund-me page so we can buy the refs that the Heat get.

No, there's a team type that gives us problems and the Heat have that type.
Same with the Suns like two years ago? Before their implosion i believe.
And the Nuggets a few years back.
There is a certain type of team that really gives us match up problems. Its not a huge deal becuase it only comes through in the regular season, but its something ive noticed.

Our record agains the East sucks this year. We've lost five close games to the Bulls, Raptors, Knicks, Hawks, and Heat. Teams we're superior too, by quite a lot in some instances, and we can't beat them in a close game.

it's so hard to accept that we are barely even an above average team. Presti took the youngest championship contender ever and trashed it. Bad roster moves, bad coaching change, bad everything except drafting.

And what's the point in calling a timeout so that you can have KD dribble for 20 seconds and shoot a three?

This. We've lost games to the Bulls, Raptors, Hawks, and Heat because we let an inferior team keep hanging around with lazy, uninspired defensive stretches and extremely low IQ offensive stretches.

Seriously here.
The world is not ending.
Again, a-freaking-gain.....
New coach.
New system.
KD is required in new system.
KD just got back.
It will take some time before our players fully grasp and are used to this system.

Lets stop the freaking out and spouting hyperbole.

The new system is amazing. I particularly enjoyed that brilliantly drawn up play by Donovan to get KD that shot with 7 seconds to go. I mean, we wouldn't have wanted to use something simple like the Russ/KD pin down that Scott ran.
