Bucks @ Heat Gamethread

[navy]

Wiltside back in the starting lineup.

[305Baller]

Did Whiteside foul?

Repeato.

[navy]

Haslem is my guy, but why is he in. Should not be getting minutes.

[305Baller]

I think Spo is trying to build up the bench.

[305Baller]

oh...Andersen, Deng are out.

[navy]

oh...Andersen, Deng are out.
I swear this team cant stay healthy. Maybe the trainers are overly cautious though.

[navy]

This team just hasnt been the same since that 27 game win streak. I just dont know what's wrong.

[navy]

Bucks pass the ball well.

[Micku]

I'm still shocked at the Heat lack of defense this year. Whiteside does help tho.

Why? It's been on a downward trend for a while now.

[Micku]

Why? It's been on a downward trend for a while now.

They've been around top 11 since 2008-09. Now they are like 22. They were second the last before Whiteside I think.

I thought they had solid defensive players coming in this season, and they would be at least be average and not the bottom half of the league.

[Micku]

Dang man. D-Wade is injured again? Hopefully he isn't. The Heat can't catch a break.


edit: Whiteside is awesome (been said already, I know). His presence just makes players change shots. It's nice to have a center again.

[305Baller]

It's nice having a center again.

Wade is walking at least.

[L.Kizzle]

Mayweather and Manny sitting courtside.

[305Baller]

nice shot bosh.

[navy]

Man, Heat would have been terrible if Whiteside hadnt appeared.

[Micku]

Whiteside impacts the game that don't appear in the stats for the Heat man.

[BasedTom]

wade's hamstring AGAIN

****

[navy]

They do appear in the stats though. Rebounds and blocks.

[305Baller]

Wade injured. LeBron curse remains.

[navy]

Wade injured. LeBron curse remains.
Wiltside bout to carry Wade on his back.

[305Baller]

Wiltside bout to carry Wade on his back.

its a good tandem that can save Wade some years.

[f0und]

apparently, now its wade's other hamstring.

*uck. if its not one thing, its another

on the bright side, its not knee problems which are serious, but dam these nagging hamstring issues are annoying.

[BasedTom]

cole always hits those bs shots but misses the wide open ones

[Micku]

They do appear in the stats though. Rebounds and blocks.

Besides the obvious =p. Like box out for other players to get rebounds and changing shots and stuff.

[305Baller]

i think he is having issues with hydration. also if he drinks a lot of alcohol it could effect muscle tissue,,,maybe its the start and stop nature of his game..

[BasedTom]

shit.

:facepalm

[BasedTom]

11-1 run lol

i hate this shit

[f0und]

11-1 run lol

i hate this shit

the dreaded 3rd qtr collapse. you knew it was coming.

[navy]

Worse second half team in the league.

[BasedTom]

And-1s everywhere

[BasedTom]

Yeah there's ball movement, but it's more hot-potato "**** i dont want to shoot, you do it, nah **** you, you take it"

*haslem turnaround with .01 left on the clock*

[305Baller]

Heat announcers killing Whiteside tonight

[BasedTom]

10-3 run

good game guys

[BasedTom]

missing fts now when it matters most. Right on time.

oh look, a 3. ****.

[305Baller]

we gotta get Bosh going

[navy]

That 3 was brutal

[f0und]

cole :facepalm

[f0und]

bosh :banghead:

[305Baller]

sucky play. no chemistry here.

[f0und]

bayless :mad:

[Micku]

Dang man. The offense just died for the Heat. That second half collapse.

And Bayless is killing it.

[BasedTom]

Bucks bench with 50, Heat bench = 11.

brutal. Blazers east.

[BasedTom]

spo's reaction is spot on

[f0und]

dam the heat just cant keep it all together. wade goes down for 7 games. comes back but bosh goes out for 7 or so games. mcbob gone for the season after missing the beginning of the season. whiteside fills out the missing piece of the puzzle but misses a few games. comes back and the heat look poised to make a run. birdman and deng goes out. now wade's having hamstring problems again.

when the *uck does it end?

[305Baller]

Spo looking frustrated.

[JT123]

Whiteside shamelessly stad padding down the stretch. :lol

[navy]

Whiteside shamelessly stad padding down the stretch. :lol
They dont call him Wiltside for nothing.

[Micku]

Whiteside shamelessly stad padding down the stretch. :lol

Trying to get that 2k rating up.

Anyway, Whiteside has been great. The Heat just can't stay healthy man. I like how the commentators mentioned about the Bucks having injuries problems too tho.

[CarlosBoozer]

Wish Jabari was healthy :(

[Jasper]

Wish Jabari was healthy :(
you ain't the only one.... he could learn from the bucks teammates how to play team ball.
Thrilled all the 2nd stringers' of the lead are showing professionalism , and playing with the young guys and making it a team effort.
I really thought Bucks would lose to the Heat... great surprise they won it in Miami. :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Gotta be real with you here. The Bucks are better than the Heat.

[HALLandOATES]

Teams go through injurys but Heats season has had an abnormal amount.how many games have Wade/bosh/deng/granger/mcroberts/Anderson missed?? I've never really thought injuries played into this season that much until now.If we had a seminormal amount of injuries I really believe we'd be at least .500 . This team has had absoulutly zero time to gel as a group, and I'm really blaming our crap season for the first time because the rediculous how can you not? Wade/deng/bosh/whitside is a great starting group out east ,if they had even 10 games to gel I think we'd start getting back above .500 .and be that 50 win team people thought ....Point is this team is not as bad as its record suggest,not even close.come playoff time I think we can upset anybody not named the Hawks out east.

Bucks are 3-0 against Mia this year.

[RoundMoundOfReb]

Heat look great without LeBron.

[JebronLames]

Heat look great without LeBron.
imagine what they would look like without GOATside

[RoundMoundOfReb]

Swap Wade or Bosh with Whiteside last year and the Heat win it all.

[Hotlantadude81]

This happens when you have an aging team.

[Hotlantadude81]

Fear the deer!

[Dresta]

This is really getting annoying. Literally every game someone goes down. This team has not been remotely healthy for like more than 1 or two sparse games, where they have actually looked really good. Were without Wade/Deng/Birdman for this one, 2 injured during previous game, one pulled up during this one. It is getting absurd now.
