    Wade is the best quarterback in the NBA.

    not even close.

    forget Chris Paul....etc...

    you need a guy to run the offense down the stretch? It's wade. He has a knack for finding the wide open man...over and over...and over.

    BTW..a brief commentary on this game....

    JO had trouble getting his groove with the Bulls hectic board crashing style.

    Beasley had an awful shooting night...but turned to his.....defense.

    Wade was just ....okay. nothing great.

    Basically..ONE guy played WELL....UD.

    mediocre to bad performance...and we beat a playoff team by 8 points.

    In a way...this was the most impressive of our wins,.

    This TYPE OF WIN...is what 50 win seasons are made of.

    We need JO to be continue being aggressive and Haslem(yes, Haslem) continue to provide spark off the bench.

    Rough start to this game day.....

    JO has a broken nose suffered late in the Bulls game....

    D-Wade had to miss practice to be in court for that business lawsuit he is involved in.

    Rudy Gay is available and he comes relatively cheap as a FA for next year.

    He is in the category I talked about...where we can add a MAX and then a mini-MAX....Gay is a MINI-MAX...he wants 12 mil a year.

    One problem...his defense is weak...but I do Know that Riley LOVES Rudy Gay's game.

    expirings will do it...but let me stress it again....JUST WAIT...get him for free in the offseason....I think any deal NOW would have to involve a long term piece for Memphis and that would mean that Daquan Cook is a goner. I would rather NOT.

    totally agree with your views regarding acquiring Gay. Patience is key unless a deal that can't be turned down (which rarely occurs) is found

    And it's really showing with the lackluster defensive effort that he brings, oh, every other game or so.

    I really wish he'd go harder on defense where he's got more ability than even Kobe, but he just doesn't. Takes too many possessions off. Wade and LeBron. This is why Kobe is the best.

    Yeah... that was terrible... but Wade's performance really leaves me with a bad taste in my mouth. He was just awful. Ignore the numbers.

    Still waiting on a big game.

    He just needs one huge game to get it together.

    Should get a chance tomorrow night because Arenas, Mike Miller, Foye, and Meshawn don't believe in defense.

    Spo Burying Beasley on the bench in the 4th HAS TO STOP.

    when we had Q Richardson CARRYING us in the 4th ...it is time to go back to teh bench and bring a scorer back (Beasley).

    the Udonis Man love goes overboard every once and a while.

    Wade played a good floor game...but his shot was in the toilet.

    Now for my main gripe: What the hell was Spoelstra doing? Who starts a 4th qtr with that kind of line up? On top of that, why was Wade off the floor so much? He was out from the middle of the 1st qtr until the middle of the second, and from the middle of the 3rd to the middle of the 4th. Why did he sit for so long?

    He plays Wade lightly int he first of a back to back...especially when the second of the back to back is on the road.

    Wade will get at least 40 minutes tonight if the game is close.

    beasley needs more minutes.

    i noticed that too. iirc, from mid third quarter to mid fourth quarter or so, wade, o'neal and beasley were on the bench.

    i like a lot of what spo has done so far this season, but there was too much joey anthony and james jones during that stretch. it is nice to see wright playing a lot better tho.

    like spo said, it was an ugly game. glad we got the win. i like how mark jackson said he's "not a coach yet."

    also, just picked up q-rich for my fantasy team.

    good win.

    The offense was waaaaay off and Wade just dragged us over the finish line.

    Our defense ...very quietly has been spectacular ALL YEAR.

    I want to see Beasley be more aggressive offensively. Attack the basket. He should be averaging 18-20 per. That's my only gripe thus far.

    Denver is undefeated...no more.

    Completely dominated the Nuggets tonight with a total effort....

    Wade=22 points...JO=18 with a full boxscore....

    that is the formula to make the rest of the league crap their pants.

    if the going gets rough...you know who puts on his cape.

    Very nice win. 5-1.

    Dude Q-Rich is ****ing awesome. I know he's a streaky shooter, but he's doing other things offensively and he's been EXTREMELY SOLID on defense thus far.

    Quite a few people thought his career was close to over, but he's getting his swagger which made him (in Phoenix) back.

    Im very impressed with Chalmers, although he still makes too many mental mistakes, he's improved his offensive game and is setting guys up for shots. I think hes learned a little from Arroyo. He's needed a vet in there to help him with his learning curve, and I think Arroyo has been around long enough to for him to learn from.

    Jermaine O'Neal looks healthy for the first time in two years. I hope he holds up this year.

    But Haslem is looking like the early candidate for Sixth Man of the Year.

    Im freakin' loving it.

    The main difference from last year, in my very humble opinion, is that we don't look completely lost on the court at times.

    Chris Sheridan and Mark Stein are both reporting that MIAMI would be the chief destination for LEBRON JAMES if he left Cleveland.

    lol.

    If that happens...The suicide rate in New York will reach national emergency levels.

    we should keep Ted Ginn on the roster for that reason since he is a pal of Lebron.

    Will there be enough points or egos to go around if that happens. One of them (Wade or Lebron) will have to be the go to guy, no?

    Definetly going to a game this year.
    Propably before christmas.

    I don't follow the NBA as close as i follow football unfrotunetly, what is the status of Wade's contract? I know you guys have more insight than me of what it would take for Wade to say.

    He is a Free Agent at the end of the year but he is a lock to resign.

    In fact...NBA rules make it so you have to take a pay cut to leave your current team.

    In Lebron's case...he could leave because of the mess that Danny Ferry has made of their cap situation and they just don;t look so close to a championship anymore.

    Yeah...I remember Ginn sitting with Lebron at a Ohio State game a couple of years ago....and I kept thinking to myself......"I hope something rubs off."


    Anyway...Wizards tonight...

    gotta kick them around, no looking ahead.....big one on Thursday...Future Heat Small Forward Lebron James is in town. :shifty:
