    RRU -
    I only saw mid-2Q on so I'll let some of the other posters give details. Rocks were up about 15 at the half and 20 mid3Q but the Heat cut it down to 3 before a trey by Bull.

    Rocks were asleep with the Cat ISO's but Moochie came in and jump started them (early 4Q I think). KT played real well including some D on Anthony Mason and a clutch 3.

    The Heat went to the line about 3X as much and that's what kept them close. Rocks got more aggressive and were into the bonus mid4Q.

    I taped it as I watched, so I didn't really critique the game as I watched it initially. Hope this helps a little.

    <S>Mobley was amasing as usual except when he stubbornly would nto pass out of a trap double team...took a timeout or two and some coaching I believe to get him to start swinging the ball away from the double team. Once that happened we got some good shots from the corner with Steve and Kenny. In turn the Heat had to honor the Steve and Kenny and not double Mobley....Mobley ISO's and pops the jumpers and drives to the basket....It'd make me so happy if Mobley just learned to pass if being doubled, in the end it's best for the team and for him(Mobley.</S> don't ya hate that?

    One more thing, it looked like Mo was actually going after rebounds in first half. The rebounds he got weren't just landing near him, he was going after them...keep this up and we might give him the max...lol [​IMG] that was a joke(quite possibly a sad but true joke) btw....
