We need Asik to have a good game. I have a feeling Harden and Lin will have a hard time even scoring this game.
The question that begs an answer: Will the Heat pack the paint like the GSW and dare us to rain 3's 2 nights in a row?

Are you kidding? No bosh is a massive break for us. He was always going to kill Omer/patterson with the midrange shot
It's definitely a good thing. We're not going to win based on stopping LeBron/Wade, we're going to win based on whether our offense clicks and whether our frontcourt can punish Miami's. Bosh being gone is a big hit to their help defense and rebounding. I hope our bigs can have a huge game, we're going to need it.
I have a feeling that Rocket is not going to win this game. 1) Rocket had a good luck last game, but this one is back to back at Miami's court 2) Jeremy somehow has less confidence to face Miami team, from the days when he was in Knicks ( Guess which team shuts down the Linsanity?) 3) Miami has a good momentum going for the last 10 games, Houston is not the one can stop them.

Asik has no excuse not to abuse the Heat inside tonight. He has a good 40lbs and 4 inches on the guy closest to him in size, which is amusingly enough LeBron. I'm hoping for a near 20/20 game from him tonight, and at least 2-3 blocks.
