Game Thread: Miami Heat week 2 Game Thread

[avalon2423]

I thought when we cut it back to 86-90 in the 4th we were going to take the game. I dont know how we went from that to allowing them a 10pt run and then blowing us out lol...

BK, i know we are shooting the 3 ball decently, but none of our guys are spacing the floor. People arent worried about Williams draining 3s. I know defensively James Jones is a huge liability, but i think if he would have stayed he would be seeing some playing time.

Houston is an explosive offense and as I said before our defensive philosophy plays right into their hands

Do Miami Heat remain vulnerable to the 3-pointer? - Sun Sentinel

Luol Deng questionable for tonight in Charlotte. Spoelstra, "He got whacked on the arm and you could see ...he just wasn’t quite the same."

Explains why we didn't see him in the 4th

Just goes to show there is a reason for everything that Spo does.

Hornets again will be without Michael Kidd-Gilchrist tonight.Looks like Gerald Henderson to start for MKG.Birdman again out.Sporlste says same injury situation. So no Haslem or Granger.
Spoelstra says the expectation is Deng will play.

D-Wade playing. Looked like he was trying to play his way out of the lineup for todays game, late in the game last night - but he is in there.. Lets see what kind of effort he gives.

 

[Paolo305613]

Same starters. Listed as inactive are Birdman, UD and Granger

 

[Paolo305613]

Another early season division game. Slightly important.

 

[Paolo305613]

Another sloppy start

 

[Paolo305613]

It currently seems as though we are better when Wade doesnt attempt to shoot. His shot selection is not good so far as was the case late in the game last night

So far not good...Zeller outplaying Bosh. Cole reverting back to not so good Cole. They don't look that good either, so hopefully we will have a chance to stay in this one.

 

[bksballer89]

It's very early

 

[Paolo305613]

One thing to be said about the Heat offense so far this season - they have done a lot of penetration and passing resulting in a lot more points at this point, which I dont think they did enough of successfully last season.

 

[bksballer89]

These last 2 seasons provide more reason why Brown should have been cut.

We need 4 big guys on this team....not just 3

 

[bksballer89]

Williams does not miss that corner 3

 

[Paolo305613]

So, whats everyones take on Shawne Williams now? First game of the season people were unreasonably hard on him and yet he has come up big ever since. Says a lot about the guy.

 

[Paolo305613]

Balanced scoring so far for the Heat. But someone will have to take over to avoid our first losing streak of the season.
