Merry Chris Bosh to all, and to all a good night!

Not much to add, really. We're having a nice run. It should continue against probably our toughest opponent this season. The Thunder are definitely still reeling from dropping 4 straight to us in the Finals. They'll want revenge. We'll want a reminder. We're gonna remind them that resistance in futile in the face of overwhelming force. Let's go HEAT! PEACE.

How do you guard Kevin Durant, lucky Westbrook is not a passive PG, couldnt imagine Durant getting 20+ FGA, dropping 30 on the regular

Well...let's see, in the Finals Kevin Durant took no less than 19 FGA and as many as 24 FGA with a total of 3 games scoring over 30 points with 25 points being his lowest scoring game. Now what was the result? 1-4. The HEAT will be just fine either way, just have to bring the energy, should be an awesome game.

Don't really think anyone can call Bosh skinny anymore. Probably since 2-3 years or more ago in reality.

Or after seeing his wife.. I would be hesitant to even make gay jokes.

ANYWAY.............Finally, we face a strong opponent and it's a good measuring stick to see exactly where we are as a team. I dont want to hear any "we didnt care about this game" excuses if things dont go our way, this is one of the most important games of the regular season, a statment game where we show up and tell OKC "no **** way you're ever getting past us". Dont give them any confidence going forward, dont give them life. destroy them and remind the leauge you dont want to mess with a serious Heat team.

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO

If our recently improved D holds up, we'll be good.

Exactly. This game is even more important than the Knick game because we face the second best team in the league. As you said we can t let them get confidence by beating us on our home floor. As for now I just wait and see what happens on Tuesday

Have a feeling we lose this one but take one in OKC. This will be a good measure of where we're at though so I'm looking forward to it.

Go Heat.

Confident that we will pull through. We just have to match their effort; when we come to play we are the best in the league. Too bad that only happens 50% of the time.

We remember from last year what it's like going up against a team who beat you for the title last year.

We didnt play the team who beat us in the Finals. Sure it was the same organization, but not the same team. We weren't the same team either
