Any word on the big three playing? I heard all three missed practice yesterday due to injuries.

 

Over/Under: 40.5 points for the Heat if the three don't play.

 

Over.

 

Boozer - Out

Bosh - Out

LeBron - Game-time decision

Wade - Expected to play

With Bosh out, assuming LeBron is in, the Heat should run a lineup with LeBron at PF most of the game, and give Miller extended minutes at SF. LeBron is perfectly capable of defending Josh Smith, and it will give the Heat another 3pt shooter on the floor, which will really open up the offense.

In that case, I hope the Heat stomp Atlanta by 40, Spo is amazed because of how fast the Heat can play with a smaller lineup, and he decides to play Bosh at center and LeBron at the four for the rest of the season, including the playoffs.

Yikes, AWFUL start to the game for both teams, especially the Heat. In 9min the Heat haven't gotten one shot at the rim, which should probably be expected with Arroyo on the floor and Anthony replacing Bosh at PF. Chalmers just came in and Miller's about to enter, so we'll see how they fare with that lineup.

Wade seemed to be completely irrelevant in that OT. Didn't look like anyone cared to give him the ball, and he didn't seem to want it.

 

And when LeBron passed the ball in both clutch situations (last possession of the 4th and OT), he just stood 26 feet from the rim and waited for Chalmers (of all people) to win the game, and Chalmers got it back to him for a nearly-impossible three.

 

Don't get what any of that was about.

Very strange ending. The Heat's offense wasn't so surprising, but their defense was very, very lazy and disorganzied in that OT. That play where half the team turned their head, which led to the corner 3 was a killer for them.

 

But Joel Anthony had 16 rebounds...WTF :blink:
