Yes

As for norris cole regression and Chalmers being a free agent, I think it's best for miami to draft a pg with their first round pick.

I just want to see them draft a quality player and put him to use asap rather than ship him oversees again.

Speaking of which … Justin Hamilton hasnt done much statistically but he has shown some range and can run the floor pretty good…I hope he continues to develop and becomes a useful piece on our team soon enough

Watching this UConn game - #11 for UConn Boatright … Pesky little guy on defense…Seems like someone the Heat could use at the position especially on the defensive end.. Just dont know if he is draft eligible or not

 

[Paolo305613]

Napier aint too bad either

 

[bksballer89]

No way would Napier be available when we ddraft

 

[Paolo305613]

The Heat is 2-5 this month when the Pacers lose, per Joseph Goodman who is now predicting a Heat loss to the Raptors…

 

[Paolo305613]

You are correct - but a man can dream

 

[avalon2423]

Nah. The Heat are turning it around and will capitalize on the pacers loss.

 

[bksballer89]

Pacers lose again.....And will probably lose tmr vs the Spurs.

If Miami win against Toronto, we will be ahead of Indy in losses

 

[Paolo305613]

What we need to do is be ahead of Indy in wins … thats what counts.

Obviously the reason we're not ahead of them in wins is because we played less games. We're even in losses and played 2 fewer games than they have which is why they're up by a game

 

[Paolo305613]

Allen (stomach virus), Oden (back spasms) & Wade (vaginal aches ) all missed morning shootaround and are listed as doubtful for tonight’s game.

Mario Chalmers a game-time-decision

Has Michael Beasley become Miami Heat afterthought? - Sun Sentinel

No matter what, Beasley needs to get back in the rotation in place of Scrub Battier - no reason for Beas to be out of the rotation while Scrub Battier is still in it despite being extremly useless and a waste.

 

[Paolo305613]

Erik Spoelstra confirms Wade, Allen and Oden out again. Chalmers expected to return.

Per Ira Winderman. Diva Wade cant seem to get rid of those vaginal aches

 

[bksballer89]

You're an ass.....You don't fuck around with hamstring injuries. If you rush back you can tear your hammy and be done for months

 

[Paolo305613]

Chalmers and Douglas to start in Heat backcourt, alongside James, Bosh, Haslem. Patrick Patterson active for Raptors.
