Good game Section/Heat Fans.

We just couldn't buy a stop down the stretch, offensively you guys were just burying everything.

Ah well.. it was entertaining.

yes it was....good game...103-96 Heaters...Delonte West was out of his mind tonight..and so was Pierce....

Toine went nuts in the 4th and we got clutch....J-Will hit a big one...

Really entertaining game....and the heat covered the 5 point spread....:D
 
I believe thats 7 in a row for the Heat, looking at there upcoming schedule I think this is a great chance for them to rally off 10+ in a row :)
 
Very quitely..Antoine Walker has been playing very well...for a while now...

Shaq looks like the Shaq of 5 years ago...Wade is well...Wade. J-Will is back to his career year ways again after the finger injury. Zo is having a spectacular year as the 6th man.

Even Shandon Anderson is back..and playing well.

The one weakness I still see....all the super stars on other teams keep lighting us up. Pierce was the latest....are we just cutting them loose?
 
Not to burst the bubble, but the Heat still arent playing very well. I thought Anderson did a great job on Pierce while he was playing, but noone else on the Heat can slow him down. Anderson really needs to start getting some serious minutes....Riley is going to call on him against the likes of Rip, Vince, Lebron, Peja, and Redd in the playoffs.

Its not like you can really blame them for a lack of motivation. The regular season means nothing from here on out. The Heat arent going to catch Detroit and the Nets arent catching them.
 
What happened to all the people who wanted Antoine traded?

He is stepping it up. Yeah the Heat need to learn how to stop the other team's main threat, but its okay, as long as we win. :D

OH...they are playing well....Only Detroit and Dallas have more victories of 20 points or more than the Heat....

They are playing fine. What I really like is how clutch they are playing...if the game is close...we find a hero...Toine was that hero vs. Boston.

Since Riley took over...every team category has improved.

And of course....SHAQ...he looks like the Shaq of 2001....

Um...mabey they stopped asking b/c the trade deadline has passed. And most people are smart enough to realize that contract isnt tradable.

dunno if you watched the Celtics game, but Shaq wasnt even trying out there. It was more of a half hour cardio workout...jogging up and down the court. I realize he doesnt care, hes never shown any desire to really try hard in the regular season. What worries me is if that attitude is rubbing off on Wade and JWill, who really need to put some work in to get better defensively.
 
I have no problem with Shaq pacing himself, he's not a spring chicken ya know, and i seriously doubt that Wade or JWill are going to pick up "lazy habits" have you ever seen Wade NOT going breakneck all the time??

I don't know what Shaq you were watching.

he has never looked better in a Heat Uniform. Maybe you should watch more Heat games than just one where Boston decided to triple team Shaq from the start.

If you had seen him diving for loose balls in the Seattle game of all games while we were up by 20 maybe you wouldn't be saying that he isn't "trying" out there.

Shaq takes the first 30 games off...we all know that...We are past the first 30 games.

"Attitude rubbing off on Wade and J-Will.." Give me a break.
 
As for Toine's contract being tradeable...do some homework. Not only is Toine's contract not a "bad" contract, but REALLY BAD contracts get traded all the time. (Eddie Jones, Steve Francis, etc...)
 
Walker's contract isnt a bad one? So its now ok to give bench players 4 yr 33 mil contracts? The production recieved from him does not match the dollars paid, hence a bad contract

Players who have contracts like Walker do not get traded. The EJ and Francis trades have no relevence to Walker's situation. EJ has two years left on a max contract and was traded for more to get rid of JWill and Posey who clashed with a coach than to obtain his talents. In some peoples minds Francis is still a star, and you're right....if someone is dumb enough to take on that contract there is some hope out there that Walker could be traded. But there is only one team that would do that, and I dont see them as being interested or able to trade for Walker.

It took forever to get rid of EJ though.

BTW, I don't want him gone, I kept saying give hime chances, don't trade him. I am glad we didn't. I love Pat Riley for sticking with his players.
