magicbalala245 Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Wade has to be the guy to take clutch shots down the stretch of games. Really? A Chris Bosh 3 pointer to force OT. Any time will take those chances anyday rather then having Wade shoot a 3 to send it to OT. And LeBron my god has failed time and time again, it's getting to a point where I think teams are let LeBron shoot those clutch shots rather then anyone else on the team. It's time for Pat Riley not to step in as a coach but to step in a tell Spoelstra it's time for Wade not LeBron to takeover the 4th quarters.

SRV Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 I think we have blown about 5 leads of 20 points or more this season....We have Lebron, Wade, and Bosh...how we can't hold a 20 point lead is beyond me. Even if they make a run, kill some clock, make some layups, do something. We have one of the best defenses in the NBA somehow, along with two prolific scorers, and we blow a 20 point lead. We are just a stupid team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland's Finest Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Cleveland still sucks. I see how a Cleveland fan can take solace in dissing the Heat, but why does a Raptor fan diss Cleveland? Aren't you a Raptor fan? Therefore anti-Heat, anti-LeBron?

Dash Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 LBJ & Wade no FG in fourth quarter? That shows how little "leadership" there is. And I heavily underrated the Magic. Haven't followed them much this season, and they just struggled to get used to the trade at first. Hedo and Gilbert have been on and off, but Dwight has really matured and Nelson is picking his game up. Anderson and Redick are so active and Q had a great fourth quarter. No longer will I underestimate the Magic!12-16 against winning teams? Really Bron? I love how everyone thinks all these losses fall on Lebron. He's missed a lot of good looking shots in crunch time but last time I checked, Dwayne Wade (who has won a ring and you don't win one of those and Finals MVP without 'leadership') and Chris Bosh and Eric Spoelstra and the rest of the Miami Heat are all losing these games. They need to figure things out before playoff time or else they will be in trouble. Honestly though I'm not expecting Miami to win it this year, not with this supporting cast but hey maybe I'm wrong.

Lemon Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Lol i was expecting a Bosh 3 but i think the play was for Wade. They were denying him really well though. Either that or I just wanted the ball in Wade's hands really bad. Dwight Howard played some badass defense in the 4th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 It time to make Wade the closer already. This act is getting old. Once again, lack of a point guard running the offense in late game situations and Wade & LeBron playing off of that dies. Please Pat...pleeeaaase come back!

Owner Popular Post Real Deal Posted March 4, 2011 Author Owner Popular Post Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Everyone was on Spo's jock in the first half, and the team was just so perfect. Once James and Wade started choking, especially in that fourth quarter, it's Spo's fault... Simply put, the Magic defended the two superstars well, especially on the last play of the game. The play had to be a three. Wade will never shoot a contested three (hell, I'm not even sure if Wade will even take a jumper to win a game these days), while LeBron is scared to death to take that final shot. Who was left open? The Magic left open the big man for a reason. If Bosh drills that, so be it. Plus, it wasn't Miami's offense that ultimately lost this game. It was the fact that they weren't able to stop Orlando's three ball, which brought them out of a hole that very few teams should be able to climb out of. That's nothing on Spo. Spoelstra doesn't call plays from the sidelines, not every play. He may have drawn up the three to the open man (which was Bosh due to Orlando's defense), but LeBron in the post is something the player decides. There are rotations that LeBron will want to run the point and facilitate with, not drag his man into the post. Also, Q-Rich isn't a punk. He has put on muscle, and he's not afraid to get physical with James. Wear and tear...it's possible that LeBron wanted to avoid it, just as a lot of players do in the league, to save energy and physical strength for the last few minutes. There are two superstars, and one all-star, with a handful of shooters, on this team. It's not the coach's fault they couldn't hit a damn shot. They were wide open for half of the third quarter, and both LeBron and Wade were playing more like Joey Graham and Von Wafer throughout that last quarter. Because there are about three players that actually get to take part in this offense every night, expect the other 10-11 to not be able to make something happen when they are needed. That's how basketball works. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dash Posted March 4, 2011 Report Share Posted March 4, 2011 Cleveland still sucks. What do you mean Cleveland still sucks? I seem to recall them winning 60+ games for 2 consecutive seasons. If they land Kyrie Irving or Perry Jones then they already have a better future than the Raptors. No offense to BFT and CMS though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda Anti-Heat but wouldn't mind them in finals. Not really anti-Lebron. You probably feel sad for him because he left money on the table too, right? Is this what you want to hear out of me? We never deserved him. He did so much. He got us to the freakin' playoffs. I mean, come on man. He didn't do us wrong. We did him wrong. LeBron's the man, and all Cleveland did was put washed up talent around him. And that owner, that racist owner, treated him like a slave. Besides, he's from Akron, and that's like, not in Cleveland, so he isn't even from there man. This guy left money on the table to win a ring. Look at Cleveland now. LeBron owns Cleveland.

No choice but to ... LeBrick! LeBron/DWade just played their best half of the season. Unfortunately, it was the wrong half. I cannot wait to talk about what I just saw. Tomorrow: 10 Eastern, ESPN2.
