There are a lot of problems with this team, starting with execution. Not just 4th quarter execution – all game execution. The Heat rely on the athletiscm and skill of their big 3 for most of the game. But fact is, their half-court play execution is terrible. You can blame it on the coach, or on the fact that it’s tough to manage two stars with redundant skills who can’t do much without the ball.

Next, their depth is pretty awful. All those veteran big men that they acquired – can’t get off the bench. I’d just load this team with hardworking, athletic young forwards instead of old veterans whose only skill is midrange shooting. Dampier is a good addition though. I also think people put too much emphasis on their guards – their guards don’t need to handle the ball. Arroyo was shooting 44% from 3 – cant complain about that.

No – the big issue here is that after 60 games, the Heat still cant find a way for all 3 of their players to play together with good chemistry and good flow. Offensive execution is just not there. They rely too much on the same plays, and teams are sniffing it out with ease. Every play in the 4th quarter, you can almost be certain that it will end in a jacked 3. Where is all the off-the ball movement by the big3 that we were promised at the beginning of the season?
Spoelstra is way out of his league here, and unfortunately, I dont see how Pat Riley can change their offensive execution in 20 games.

Regarding the last shot by Bosh, I think Moore is making too much of it. It’s not as if Erick Dampier was taking it. A 30% 3-pt shooter getting a wide open look is as good or better than Wade or Lebron taking a double teamed contested three. He makes the shot and everyone would say “Why wasn’t Bosh being guarded?”

Its a great sports town for out of town fans. I’m a die hard football fan and have never had any problem getting reasonably priced tickets for the Jets, Patriots, Colts or any other sporting event for that matter. Not at all like New Jersey.

The again I understand why LaBron chose to come to South Florida. It was either South Beach or Lake Icy Erie! Trick question? The temperature here right now is 75 degrees.

Boston and Chicago have done the best, at 7-4; then San Antonio at 5-3, and Dallas at 6-4. Los Angeles is 2-6, which seems pretty pathetic… until you get to Miami, at 1-7. Miami’s sole win? Over those second-to-last Lakers.

Oh, and he still looks like E.T.

Either way, Miami by far has the worst fan base for basketball. The Cavs have top five attendence right now….yes I said it right, THE CAVS.

Call me a bitter Cavs fan, I am ok with that. But it was Lebron that tweeted “karma” when the Cavs broke the losing record streak……..

I think we can officially say that the Miami experiment is a failure. The wins are not comming effortlessly like they assumed they would. New younger stars are already on the rise throughout the league. It will really be something if these three waste thier years without a championship. Any takers on how many season’s without a championship before these guys get broken up and traded for re-building by Riley?

To reiterate…any NBA GM (meaning GMs on teams OTHER than the Heat) who trades away a starting defensive minded, rebounding front court player for Chris Bosh is an idiot.

My take, Spoelstra’s gotta go. If he did draw up the Bosh play = bad. He has the three point champ. on his bench who should have been in instead of Bosh, so if the play didn’t go as planned an established three point threat would be there (just in case) something went wrong. Also Coach S. has to take some blame on not keeping his guys focused on the above losses when his team has a comfortable lead.

Solution is they need an established coach who can put Lebron in his place. There are 4-5 guys more capable of making the tying three point shot than Lebron, yet he gets the call everytime. There is no one to stand up to him other than Wade and its too young into the Marriage to tell Lebron whats up.

And to think…LeBron FOLLOWED this guy to Miami.

You’re all a bunch of front runners who jumped on the Heat bandwagon and now you can’t get your asses off that cart quick enough. Restaurants offering free meals if the Heat lose, Heat tickets selling out before the first pre-season game was played, predictions of multiple NBA Championships by LaBron and once they stumbled everyone wants to pile on and detail what’s wrong with the team. The problem is that they team is a work in progress and even if they don’t win the Heat organization has banked their money and those guys come off looking like suckers.

Plus what with people coming to the games late and leaving before the game is over? Talk about front runners those guys here have cornered that market. They don’t deserve a good team, They deserve the likes of The Dolphins, Marlins, Hurricanes and the Panthers!

Bunch of Losers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I am talking about the South Florida Fans!!!!!

I also don’t have a problem with the look Bosh got at the end of the game. They were keying on Wade and Lebron, and Mike Miller wasn’t going to get a clean look. Bosh was wide open. You’re not going to get the perfect shot from the guy you want everytime in a drawn up play. The problem wasn’t Bosh taking the shot, it’s the wheels coming off and the Heat’s inability to get the ball inside in crunch time.
