I'll be counting the days. Obviously he won't solve a lot of our problems, but he'll be great coming off the bench, as he is a solid 10 10 guy. He's one of our most consistent players, and we could really use that right now. Plus he's a very good defender and does the little things. Missing a player like that now.

Maybe if he played better he would get the ball. He settles for way too many jumpshots and misses many shots in the paint. And if he isn't getting the ball, get the [expletive] over it and start doing other little things like rebound the ball.

Looks like it will be a massacre on Thursday. Heat are in a slump, and Lakers are playing some of the best basketball of the season. Besides Wade and LeBron, no one seems to be picking up the slack, and I really hope when Haslem comes back, whenever the hell he does and it better be soon, he takes Bosh's spot. Haslem actually plays defense, hustles, grabs rebounds, and can hit open jumpshots. Recently Bosh hasn't been doing any of these things. And where the hell is the Heat's good defense? That defense doesn't seem to apply to good teams. Portland shot 50.6%, and we shot even better, and still lost the game by 9 damn points. They had more offensive rebounds, and less turnovers as well. It's pathetic to see the Heat shoot 51.4% and lose by 9. And LeBron and Wade had a great shooting night as well. No one else though decided to show up. Not looking forward at all to Thursday.

Game over. EDIT: nvm, Wade hits a three. Still a small chance. This is pathetic.

Seriously, our bigs suck ass, including Bosh. I'm not sure what the hell has been wrong with him these past couple of weeks. Has been playing horrible on the offensive end and hasn't done much on the defensive either. Can't even grab rebounds for us.

God what the hell is wrong with Bosh. Should get benched when Haslem comes back.

Haha, but we played well in the 2nd quarter. I don't get why the Heat no longer come out of half time well. I remember at one point we basically were a 2nd half team, cruising in the first and taking teams serious in the 2nd. Now we just absolutely suck in the 2nd half.

Why do the Heat always play like shit after half time?

Do you know what understatement means? I was making a joke about your comment that the Heat are chokers, by saying that phrase is downplaying how big the Heat choke.

That's an understatement.

WTF is Bosh doing taking a three? [expletive] I rather have Dampier take that.

Was thinking the same thing.

Dampier = clutch

Let's not forget what happened last time. Heat were up by like 20 in the 4th and lost our lead in a matter of minutes.

The difference between the Heat and the Bulls is that the Heat can play on the road. Bulls are 13-13 on the road, Heat are 21-11. And let's not forget Heat will most likely have home court advantage. We played one game without LeBron, and had Chris Bosh leave in the 4th due to an injury. Also didn't have Haslem, and Chicago didn't have Noah. This game we didn't have Miller/Haslem and in both games we barely lost. And both games were in Chicago. We'll see how the Heat do next Sunday when they play the Bulls on their home court.

Probably because Heat have 12 turnovers to the Celtics' 3 and 2 offensive rebounds compared to 7 by the Celtics. Even though the Heat are shooting much better the Celtics have had many more possessions (10 more shots).

lmao at Joel Anthony. In 23 minutes, he has 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 1 block, and 2 fouls.

lmao at Amare's comment. A healthy Heat team destroyed the Knicks on their court by 22. Without Bosh Heat have no chemistry, especially since there are no good offensive players for the Heat at the PF and C position outside of Bosh and Haslem.

Stupid [expletive] Arroyo. Misses two open threes in the last 2 minutes and loses the ball near the end. Bench his [expletive] and bring in Chalmers. Wade should have made that shot as well. Wide open.

Dwyane Wade with 11 rebounds already in the 3rd quarter.

I'm surprised no one has posted anything from the 2006 NBA Finals.

I didn't see the game, so I'm not sure how the officiating was, but looking at the box score, it's no surprise who got most of the free throws. The Big 3 took 42 of those free throws.

After 3 quarters the Warriors have the same amount of points as they had the whole game the last time we played them.

I haven't seen much of Thabeet to honestly say, but you are really underrating Anthony. The stats don't mean anything. He is pretty good down low guarding players even at his size, and he can block shots and takes charges every now and then. He also can get some good offensive rebounds from time to time.

Looks like the Heat's 16 game streak for holding opponents under 100 is about to be over.
