Knicks lose to one of the worst teams in the NBA one night and then beat one of the best another night
so the not only are we going to have the other team make incredible shots while the heat seemingly never make anything down the stretch, but we're going to add the refs not making obvious foul calls for the heat as well in close games. one of the most frustrating close game teams i've ever followed.
it's amazing how bad they are. all of their losses to great teams have been by a differential of 2.7 points. they make one play here or there in those games and the tides turn. they really need to fix their late game execution if they want to win a championship this year.
lol, the haters have came out for one game, then they will disappear for the next week. Stay classy Clutch Fans.
Think it's time for them to give Wade the closer role even if he does struggle. In close games I expected Bron and Wade to take turns from a game to game or possession to possession bases but it seems like it is all LeBron late.
Its because teams are playing the heat like it's game 7 of the playoffs, come the playoffs that energy will not last the whole series.
C'mon man, stop making excuses every time your team loses and give the other team credit. It make you look foolish. Its not a mystery when your team could never win a close game and is 1-7 against the top 5 team in the leaque. You do this all the time and its getting old.
Yeah you same people making excuses for Miami do it after every game. Facts are facts the Heat have struggled late in games against Good teams. Period
early on, they seemed to always go to him. and he sucked almost every time. he used to be clutch. now he just turns it over or takes terrible shots. i know against milwaukee one time he had a wide open 20 footer to win the game and missed and it went to overtime. on that one scramble tonight he got the ball for a 12 footer and of course bricked it. it would be amazing to go through all the box scores of the heat's close games and just see the incredible shooting of their opponents and the incredibly bad shooting of the heat in every close game. at some point i guess it's just who they are but you would think the law of averages would occasionally make a billups 28 footer rim out instead of be a perfect swish to take the lead with a minute left just once this season. it would be one thing if the heat were just giving up layups in these situations but teams just drain long jumpers and tough runners all over them. and of course, it doesn't appear to matter whether wade or lebron or one of the role players takes one of those game tying 3's that lebron just took, it's not going to go in. just won't happen.
Yeah I can't fault Bron on the shots he took. Some people are saying Wade was open I gotta see the replay. Bosh on the other hand, just a stupid pass he made in that final minute that led to a basket.
except lebron has made far more plays down the stretch (even in games that ended in losses) where he just wills his way to the basket or sets someone up and is pretty much the only one who ever seems to get good shots off in the close games. i'm really trying to remember a close game where wade got a possession and did something really good with it. a few years ago when i was rooting against the heat more, wade always seemed to come through, now he might as well play for the rockets when it's crunch time.
