Game Thread: Miami Heat Month of October Game Thread

[Wamu]

So Hassan ruled out for tomorrow as well

That's because he's afraid of Tristan Thompson. Wait a minute, am I in the right thread? If not my bad.

I expected this to happen to him especially given he was demoted to a bench role for no actual reason. I think he is a better option than J-Rich at SF - although I think J-Rich is more mentally tough to handle off nights like the one he had the other night - of which I expect many more from him. Justise needs a confidence booster and I think starting would do that for him - or an extended role off the bench.

I don't like to predict but I am sure he will break out of this very soon.

Matt Williams officially sent to D-League

 

[Paolo305613]

Any takers on who the Heat will start at C tonight?

 

[Paolo305613]

So of days apparently don't count in this regard

 

[Paolo305613]

Good all around/floor game for Justise Winslow so far after 1 quarter where the Heat lead by 5 - this coming the same day Ira wrote about the possibility of his confidence being hurt over his bench role

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat trying to do a bit much on some of their passes which are leading to the turnovers

 

[Paolo305613]

As our broadcasters have said - Heat are turning back the clock on those bad 3 attempts and not doing enough to create chances at the FT line - this game could go down hill quick and before half time hits if they don't get it together now

 

[Paolo305613]

That has to be a Flagrant 1 at least

 

[Paolo305613]

Good things happen when JJ decides to go inside

 

[Paolo305613]

And just as I praise him , JJ makes a terrible decision that ends in 2 points the other way and the Heat go into half down 2 - lucky it isn't more

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat have to do a better job of matching BOS and really all their opponents level of toughness and energy especially on the defensive end because thats been the deciding factor in some of our struggles

 

[Paolo305613]

As Florentine said - Heat doing too much with the dribble and coming up empty - the Heat making things difficult on themselves - this could be over soon

I miss Hassan

 

[Paolo305613]

I miss Hassan

I know you do

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat down 11 after 3 - no reason to think the Heat are going to do anything to make a comeback in this one - its over

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat in bonus. Lets see if they decide to make it count

 

[Paolo305613]

I am hoping they read this message board and get motivated by me declaring them lost early

 

[Paolo305613]

Might be another case of the hole the Heat dug themselves in earlier ends up being too much to overcome - after this time out - probably one last chance at making a run
