Seems like this first half has been rather long -in addition to the slightly delayed start

 

[Paolo305613]

Shawne Williams with a nice bounce back game so far - I expected it.

Wade fts are bad

KaBosh

Rough 1st half for Wade.

Great shot selection but lots of easy misses

 

[bksballer89]

That's a lame call

 

[Flauge]

We are moving the ball a lot better in the new offense. I know it's early.. only 6 quarters.
I am a little shocked by this. LeBron is a great passer, but the ball movement seems better.

 

[bksballer89]

Yeah offense is really shocking.

It was too much standing around with Lebron here.

It also helps that we have better role players now who aren't one dimensional 3 pt shooters.

Swap Deng out for Lebron and we would have our best team/roster ever with the big 3

 

[Paolo305613]

10 point lead for the Heat - time to put the finishing touches on this one early

 

[Paolo305613]

It was too much standing around with Lebron here.

When the guy who held the ball a very high percentage of the time is gone - there is less standing around going on.

3 pt defense is a joke

 

[Andresrenee]

Our defense is a joke.....this has been a totally awful performance. Seems like outside of Deng, there is very little effort on defense. They need to get it together. This would be a really bad game to lose.

 

[Paolo305613]

Lackluster defense letting the 76ers get back and ahead in this game

 

[bksballer89]

The one positive is the offense

 

[Flauge]

offensively we are strong. but this is shit on defense. philly isn't even hitting contested shots, which you live with. these guys are getting clean looks.

 

[bksballer89]

Guys are just being lazy on defense and failing to close out shooters

 

[bksballer89]

Bad move by Deng. No need to rush there....Should have just held it for 1 shot

 

[Andresrenee]

Sad that our D gets better with Wade on bench...

 

[Paolo305613]

Heat need to get it together and put this game away soon - or I can see them getting off to a slow start tomorrow.
