    Gutsy win yeah. TJ almost looks like a Dragic clone out there, lefty too. He needs to be Dragic backup and even play sometimes in the Whiteside, Deng, Wade, TJ, Dragon lineup. That's a very good lineup.

    Wade was clutch and Beasly did a great job on Cousins tonight lol, hard to believe it.

    Nice win. We'd be sitting in the #2 seed tonight if we weren't screwed by the refs a couple nights ago against Memphis (right after the bogus suspension of Harden vs Atlanta). I see the league apologized to Harden for the horrible refereeing, but that does nothing. You blew it. You screwed us out of a win just like in the playoffs last year (league apologized for that too). Feels like a pattern.

    I wish we had this bench earlier in the season. I can't believe we wasted so much time with bums like Shawne Williams and Granger.

    It really sucks that Wade doesn't have anything left in the tank. It sucks even more that he hasn't had anything in the tank since 2013.

    Eh.. look at the numbers this year. Yeah, he's missed significant time but when he plays he is clearly a top player.

    Lol. I used to go there, but there were more Jeremy Lin fans than actual Rockets' fans and Harden fans. Needless to say, I got into it with quite a few idiots there. Jeremy Lin...lol. What a joke. How's that workin' out for ya?

    Report surfaced today that the Knicks would entertain dealing their first round pick for a player. Wonder if the kings would consider Cousins and their first for the Knicks pick (Knicks have to get a 1st back as they can't not have a 1st in back to back years under this cba...)

    I used to get to watch all of my Wizards game when I lived up in Virginia I see them seldom now but honestly they look like they need a new direction, maybe a new coach. Not sure. They are way too talented to be sleepwalking against the Heat's 2nd squad. They should be the 1st or 2nd team in the East but they look like they might be the 6th seed by the time its all said and done. They have one of the deepest teams in the league and Wall is 1 or 1a at his position, no excuses for how they are playing.

    Chris Bosh will be at the game tonight and will meet the media at 6:45.

    Should give the guys a nice lift in an important game

    The Heat sent out the entire front office staff, dancers, ticket staff to greet CB at his home to wish him well.

    Cool gesture.

    Any idea what this press meeting will be about? Has some Heat fans out there freaking out thinking he's going to announce retirement or something. That wouldn't be like him to do that only 45 minutes before a game starts. Will he drop any hints about his availability for the playoffs?

    Tim Reynolds just tweeted that any fans going to the game should be in their seats by 7:30. He "highly recommends" being there.

    I presume Chris will walk to center court for a thank you for the well wishes and impromptu pep talk.

    Whiteside going prima donna on us. Say what you want about the punishment he's taking but he's the one getting ejected and trying to lose an important game for Miami.

    Dozens of Heat fans hanging around the tunnel to the locker room...one single guy half-heartedly putting up his hand to slap hands with Whiteside as he's ejected from the game. Whiteside never looks up. Bad look for Hassan. He needs UD and Bird to issue a code red.

    You don't want to look happy or excited after you've been ejected

    I understand his frustration but you've got to be smarter.

    Lots of guys have similar issues early in career. Zo, Rasheed Wallace, etc.

    It happens. We have tge support structure to help him

    Understand his frustration. He's getting fouled and mauled a lot without calls, but that is the worst way to react to it. Can't do stupid sh*t like that and cost your team when they're fighting tooth and nail for a playoff spot. Has to mature in a hurry.

    Wouldn't be surprised if he gets multiple game suspension. He got away with the tackle, they'll be harsh on him this time.

    Well for example when he took down that dude UFC style, the whole crowd cheered him into the locker room cuz they understood. This time? He was just being a dick.

    1 game for a kick to the balls, this should merit the same. Maybe 2.

    He didn't throw a punch or pull an Artest. Let's not go completely nuts.

    Not trying to overreact but I'll trust Riley on what he does with Whiteside in the offseason.. he's a very good player, but if he doesn't fit the culture, he's also a major trade piece to a team that wants to take a chance on him.

    The scouting report on Whiteside is to frustrate him, every team is starting to get physical because they know he retaliates.

    What's funny is it was just a week ago he said he's going to calm down because he doesn't make enough money to pay for fines.. Well, I guess you like being broke then.
