Miami Heat Game Thread for month of December

[Paolo305613]

Heat were in the penalty in the 7 or so mark and this game is still tied -- like i said at the end of half, will need to be up about 3-5 points or no worse than down 1-2 points to give themselves a chance.

More untimely turnovers from Richardson and even James Johnson -- two guys who too often handle the ball when they really have no business doing so

 

[Paolo305613]

Signature bad foul from Richardson to award an And-1 to porter

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat down just 1 after 3 but another frustrating loss could be upcoming

 

[Paolo305613]

Thats when James Johnson is most useful -- when he is going to the basket -- when he is out there dribbling - not good.

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat in bonus again... this time they neglect the chance to use it and seal this win

 

[Paolo305613]

That alley-oop will seal this win.
The losing streak is over.

Good finish for the Heat - started off well - got shaky in the middle as usual but finished it well.

 

[Paolo305613]

Now if the Heat can build on this, we can end 2016 in the best way possible

Justise Winslow fully participated in practice today.

 

[Paolo305613]

 

[Paolo305613]

He has shown what he can be, who he is, and who he can become -- he just needs to be consistent. And healthy.

 

[Paolo305613]

For the few who are still following the Heat this season and still on here - my thoughts are with those who have to watch this game via the broadcast of the idiots at ESPN.

[Paolo305613]

Same Heat starters: Dragić, McGruder, Ellington, McRoberts, Whiteside.

 

[Paolo305613]

CB and Waiters inactive so Winslow will come off the bench as it should be

 

[Paolo305613]

2 early fouls on McGruder -- thats one way to get him out of there early

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat already wasting a lot of possession and we are stuck on a 2-2 tie when we could be up already - thats how you lose games you shouldn't

 

[Paolo305613]

Good to see us trying to establish Hassan early but nothing is coming of it
