The Official Miami Heat Return to the Playoffs Thread.

Well I'll slap myself now... but he's going to have to do it again.

You've got to be kidding me. Unlikely shots all over the place by New Orleans.

 

Lets GO HEAT

 

Nope. Nevermind. Wade you ****ing suck.

 

well thats it folks

we fd up this one

 

Dwyane Wade sucks... don't care what anyone says. Two games that end on Wade turnovers in one week.

He cried like a ***** for the foul of course. Chris Paul didn't even swipe at the ball.

 

Wade what happened? a little too much butter on ur hands?

 

Not his fault we can't rebound or play D.
Not his fault at all for that.

 

Michael Jordan sucks he missed a FT.
Dan Marino sucks he threw an INT.



Stop hating on Wade before I'm forced to start hating on you

 

it was his fault for letting the ball out of his hands

 

No, but it's his fault that he can't close out a game at the free throw line when he's reaching out to the media to self proclaim himself the MVP of the league. It's his fault that he loses the ball at the end of the game without anyone even swiping at it.

I give Wade breaks all the time and bash the role players and poor Mr. Spoelstra instead. Enough of that now. How many times over the last month has Wade cost us the game down the stretch? 3-4 is a generous number. Forget that OT ever even existed... the guy is unreliable when it comes to knocking down a game clinching FT. He misses them ALL THE TIME. He's my favorite athlete ever and I love him to death, but he has SUCKED when it matters the most ever since that Chicago game.

He's lost that "Mr. Clutch" thing he had going for himself.

 

LOL. Are you serious? This team flat out SUCKS A$$ without Wade. Our record would be 30 under .500 without Dwade. So suck it up and deal with it.

 

And this team is not going to anything in the playoffs.

Instead of peaking to close out the season we are staggering to the finish line.

 

This is the most painful loss of the season... we were up by 4 points with a minute to go, New Orleans misses, rebounds over Jermaine, misses, grabs another rebound over Jermaine. And of course when it all bubbles down, Dwyane Wade = epic failure.

 

In general.
Riley doesn't have much patience for instant offense if no D is attached to it. I love Beasley but he is going to be prime trade candidate until he develops a killer mentality on D.

 

That's your argument vs. the major choke job he pulled tonight? The major choke job against Dallas? The major choke job against Orlando where he scored 0 points in the final 7 minutes when we were up by 5? 2-3 other close games in the month of March? Please. We all know how great he is. No one is arguing against the FACT that he's a top 3 player in the league... the problem is, he's playing like a little ***** right now. And right now isn't the time for that.

Love the guy... always will... I know you love him as well. It doesn't excuse him from being hammered like the Jermaine O'Neal's of the world when his **** stinks.

 

The solution is simple. The season is long. Let's break it down in easier terms:

Miami Heat with Wade: 43 games won, 5th seed
Miami Heat without Wade: 20-62?

Wade has no help on D and is forced to carry the load every single damn game. We can't board for sh*t and have a PG that shows up every other game. We have no depth at PG, a "center" who is flat footed, a talented rookie being suppressed by the coaching staff, and a bench that is inconsistent. Wade is immune from criticism. If Wade did not exist on this team the arena would be filled with 10,000 people and the Miami Heat would be irrelevant.

 

I love Beas. But I also have been watching Riley operate for a very long time. I remember the trades he made when he arrived in Miami. And Beas is the type of player he maximizes value out of to ship off to find the missing peace. I hope my gut is wrong.

 

Without Wade there is no end of the game to f up.

Wade is playing a bit too aggressively on offense but nobody else on the team consistently steps it up.. On the last possession he should have dished it off though when he saw the double team coming.

 

I love Beas. I'm just saying that I know Riley. And his past moves indicate to me that players with Beasley's skill set are expendable, especially if he can get a big guy or a bruising PF. Remember the trade rumors earlier in the season that already involved Beas for Amare?


In terms of staggering I'm not talking about the past week. The past month has been a see-saw. This is not like the 03 team that came in to the playoffs on fire. This team looks tired and is not peaking.

 

Dude, I'm pretty sure you recall all the moves Riley has made.
Just a gut feeling. I hope I'm wrong about it. Nothing more to it other than my instinct.

 

time for a new avatar?

 

How the hell can anyone complain about Beasley's performance tonight? He did a GREAT JOB on David West; West made all the tough shots. What are you gonna do? I guess we should blame Moon for Rasual Butler hitting that game tying shot..........in his face. Let's blame him for not being 10 feet tall with a 60 inch vertical leap so he could block the shot at that angle.

 

Beas played very awesome tonight, it takes the sting out of this loss a bit.

 

i know what you're saying. something about beasley doesn't make me think riley player. i felt this way draft night too.

 

more of a mental make-up thing. but it does raise the point that riley has never had a 20 and 10 power forward (assuming beasley becomes that).
