    The players have to actually give a damn.

    Also, Mike D’Antoni was an idiot for starting Gordon over House. The other four starters with Gordon have a defensive rating of 125 this season. The typical starting five with House is right around 100. No wonder the Heat had nearly 50 points in the first quarter. A big Heat lineup exploited the smaller Rockets.

    9-41 from 3...I hate Moreyball, especially when he can never put any great shooters on the roster

    the amount of bricks is so ridiculous

    EG should be ashamed of himself shooting this garbage on pretty much all spot up attempts

    Without the 1st Q it is a tight game.

    Not when that means starting a group with a defensive rating of 125, and he subbed out one of the guys that gave his all on defense versus Brooklyn on Friday. It was just a dumb decision all the way around.

    If MDA is fired I’m not sure who would coach the rest of the year...

    That's why you don't fire him. You deal with it. No one is going to do any better at this point.

    Not necessarily. The Heat aren’t playing with the same intensity. That tends to happen when you build a 30-point lead.

    He has to be given more responsibility and better shots to get into rhythm. The whole team is out of rhythm because the playmakers have to do their job

    As much as folks like Clemons, he is too short to play D without fouling alot in this league.

    Yep, young superstars and a good front court will look like champs when they play the Rockets.
