Game Thread: Miami Heat Week 1 Game Thread

[TurnUpTheHeat]

I agree with that.....Once we're all not going crazy over a bad shooting game, I think we are all on the same page

For sure. I don't at all mind most of the shots he attempted.

It wasn't like the forced fadeaways that he'd often settle for last year knowing James was there to pick up the slack.

This team needs to really treat possessions like they are all important, especially on the road.

Sometimes shots will not fall. 10 assists is great but the turnovers and poor defense will hurt us. Glad we got off to a 2-0 start. Tomorrow versus Raptors will be interesting. BOSH averaging 28 and 11.5.

Sorry I haven't been on the boards as much. The new job has me busier and I work evenings so I'm only going to get to some games this season and not all of them like last season. But how about Bosh? Hopefully he can continue this trend.

Don't worry Heatles.

Hopefully you're able to catch the game tomorrow.

Another Heat win and a Fins win and I get the Canes, Heat, Dolphins trifecta. Been a while. Heck, ill throw in the Florida Panthers in there.

Is lack of Miami Heat extension for Norris Cole a concern? - Sun Sentinel

Per Elias: Saturday was 18th time in his career Wade attempted at least 10 field goals and missed more than three-quarters of them (4 of 18)

I know the season and young, but it seems like we'll be a much better rebounding team this season than we were these last 2 years.

 

[Flauge]

Which is really crazy to me. We didn't add any guys that are great rebounders..just average. We lose LeBron, who can board.. and he we are. I think Bosh playing closer to the basket has really helped. I look for Bosh to have his best statistical year of his career.

Honestly, Bosh saved the Heat franchise for the time being. The entire Miami Heat fan base owes this guy. Without him.. we would be a borderline playoff team..even in the East.

Bird is out tonight

 

[Paolo305613]

Amir Johnson (ankle) is questionable against Heat.Chris Andersen (bruised rib) is out tonight.Danny Granger (hamstring) will dress, but that might be it. Udonis Haslem (quad) is out.Josh McRoberts (toe) again will be limited to, in Spoelstra’s words, "spot minutes.”Official word is that Granger will be in uniform but is not expected and almost certainly will not play.

Per Ira Winderman

Lets see if the Fins can complete the trifecta for me this weekend. Canes, Fins, Heat... Been a while

Official: Dwyane Wade will play both ends of this back-to-back set. He did so only three times last season.

Per Ira Winderman.

Good to see D-Wade man-up and play on the second night of a b2b. I am sure it wont be the case all season, but doing it as much as possible will help our team.

 

[bksballer89]

I don't why this is such a shock. Wade said his goal is to plan every game as long as he is healthy.

Last year the Heat didn't allow him to make his own decision

 

[bksballer89]

If w are smart we would put Deng on DeRozan and Wade on Ross

[Paolo305613]

Dont know if I said this already, but great to see so many back-to-backs early in the season for the Heat - good test to see where this team is mentally and physically.

 

[bksballer89]

Nice move by Wade

 

[Paolo305613]

Block shot from Wade.. yep... hes done.

 

[bksballer89]

Wade already having a great all around game.

3 assist, 4 rebounds, and a block.
