Also, Wade and Lebron are finally playing better together when they are both on the court at the same time.
Watching the highlights of the Heat/Hornets game. Why was Wade yelling at Jack for that foul? He was clearly going for the ball and it wasn't even a hard foul.
Well, from the angle that i saw, after he went for the ball, he clotheslined wade and kept an arm around the back of his neck and pulled him down by the neck. It was probably a stupid play called by Monty: "These guys get there bread and butter drivin to da basket. Next fast break they try to run, give em a nice hard foul ta make em think twice about doin it again..."
for the amare v. bosh matchup coming up: yes, we all know amare is having a beastly offensive season. but for people who knock bosh's defense: That’s Stoudemire in a nutshell. He’ll win games on offense and lose them on defense. Now, Bosh isn’t a defensive player of the year by any stretch of the imagination, but he’s far more motivated and effective than Stoudemire. Over the years, the two bigs have been lumped in the same group of all offense-no defense post players, but that’s unfair since, compared to Bosh, Stoudemire is comparatively a matador in the paint. In post-up situations, Bosh has allowed just 36 points on 53 shots this season, ranking him among the league leaders with Dwight Howard and Anderson Varejao. Stoudemire? He’s allowed 79 points on 75 shots from the post. And it gets even worse once we compare the two defending off the dribble. This isn’t anything new, either. per ESPN and we saw how amare couldn't guard a lick last night. if he improves at least 50% on that end of the floor, he could really elevate the knicks to another level b/c his offense is ridiculous right now.
To be fair, so much of Amare's offense & defense is dictated by D'Antoni's system (same as in Phoenix). I haven't seen enough of Bosh to say the same, but right now the Heat are the best defensive team in the NBA so it's clear the coach is at least emphasizing that part of the game. I think the Heat will win this one because they can play a running game better than the Knicks. But it should be a pretty good game.
Quick question, with Mike Miller back is he playing sixth man or is he playing shooting guard while Wade plays the point?

when wade struggles, he really struggles. it's really weird for him this season. he's absolutely killing any heat momentum this 4th quarter. bosh is such a clutch 3pt shooter. that's his 2nd 3pter this year in crunch time
What a pathetic foul call. Blatche jumped to the side of Bosh and Bosh didn't even try to shoot instead he jumped right into Blatche.
