This week slate of games has the Heat at Phoenix, at Denver, at Utah, at home vs Chicago
We may not make the playoffs....in this week Eastern conference. I think we win 1 or 2 of those games at most. Our defense has to make some adjustments and improve.We won't win a game

This season is a waste
We need to give it another month or so. Really depends on how stubborn the coaches are and how much the veterans want to invest into learning a new system and giving max effort. Wade needs to lead by example. He has been brilliant on offense, but very mediocre on defense and it sets a tone.This season is a waste
WE ARE....HEAT NATION!!!Next year will be more or less the same.
We are reliving 08-10.

Honestly if they looked more like the 08-09 or 09-10 teams I could deal with this because at least we were a good defensive teams both years. In 08-09 we were just outside the top 10 and in 09-10 we were top 5.

THIS is the ONE and ONLY problem with the team. And THIS is what it will take for the team to improve - THEY need to be willing to give max effort , but kinda hard when your so called best player and captain is the biggest diva of them all and who rarely gives max effort unless its to complain for a foul.

Still to early to tell what will happen, but if we continue to play like we have the last two weeks, we WILL miss the playoffs. Our defense has been historically awful and worse than our expansion teams. I was very realistic at the beginning of the year. I thought we were a 6th or 7th seed and would struggle to get to 42-45 wins. Still time to turn it around. Where we differ is that you seem to think that Spolestra is perfect, and most of us think he needs to tweak his system. I also feel more effort is needed from our guards and more focus, but the system is just not doing well.Taking the bk-route , eh? he decreases our win total chances on a nightly basis after a loss - but you took it to a whole new level saying we wont make the playoffs. We have lost 4 in a row and still remain as the 7th seed - most seasons, most teams, even this early - would have dropped out of the picture already - and yet, we still remain 7th only 20 games in - putting together even just 1-2 wins in a row could get us back into the middle of the pack at least.
But, again, I am enjoying these games - and enjoying the humbling losses just as much. Its what this lousy fan base needed and deserves. When we put some wins together, people will be back. And anyone concerned with attendance because of these losses, attendance was an issue to a degree even before this stretch - you know, because that big name player is gone and that is all this fan base cares about - Like I said last night, this is probably the best part of these losses - it will show who the real and fake fans are, which is about 90 % of the fan base.
Its the same deal currently with the Fins - when we were winning and had higher chances of playoffs , people were showing up to games and people who hadnt gone in a while or ever wanted to show up - now, everyone is bitching about the Fins again - but watch how they jump back in if they win the next game.
Good times to be a fan in this city. Good times indeed.
