    i'd hate to say this because its the easiest person to blame but the coach needs to be replaced...Bosh should have had 25 shots today at least...The Bulls could do nothing with him...Bosh is the only person with a favorable matchup game after game without expending much energy.. The offense needs to start with him in clutch situations..He is a very good passer from the high post and has the ability to put the ball on the floor to make a play..When the coach realizes this , then and only then will they "put teams away"...

    I can think of at least one: starts with "H" ends with "ouston Rockets" :grin:

    They lost by 1 point, that's not a bad problem to have, as it can be fixed by playing better down the stretch.

    Most NBA teams would love to have the talent and chance to fix issues like that, then be where they are now.

    Miami will easily make the playoffs, and most teams don't want to face them in the playoffs, as anything can happan in a seven game series.

    Ok so lets say Bron,Wade, and Bosh all play like expected scoring wise. That is about 60-80 points. So where is the other 15-20 points going to come from? In the big games their role players are not showing up.

    Then combine that with their big 3 struggling to figure out how they should play to close games out and this team is in a funk.

    I have never seen a stretch this rough for superstar player as it has been for LeBron. I mean all of these games have been on National TV for the past 3 weeks. Not like this is happening not on the big stage.

    LOL.

    Yeah, they only lost by 30 points to San Antonio, but it's not a problem since it could be fixed by playing better the whole game.

    Easier said than done.

    Your optimism would be welcomed as a Rocket fan not a Heat fan, I'm sure.

    Bosh has the best post moves among the three. But if he's there, you have to run the play through him, which LeBron and Wade don't like to do. Getting Bosh down low just clogging the pane, how can they score if that's the case.

    And the spurs lost to the lakers pretty badly, so I guess they should start worrying as well.
    The regular season means nothing for these teams, as the playoffs are what these teams are built for.

    Play off of him. Bosh gets the ball in the post and sees what he can do with it, if not just pass it back out for an open 3 or a cutting Lebron or Dwayne. Bosh is out on the perimeter doing nothing most of the time.

    If these games mean nothing then why was some of the Miami players crying?

    And if you are trying to compare the Spurs losing today to Miami struggles as of late all I can say is you're clearly being a homer.

    Yep, LeBron hasn't lost 4 games in a roll since 2006. Yeah, maybe his Cleveland teammates weren't that bad after all. ;)

    I agree. With at least four opportunities to choke, they can really display some creativity. In this last game, they even unveiled a new "Dos Ahogos," where both of their allstars got shots within two seconds of one another.

    Called Passion, people say Lebron etc doesn't care about winning, but he does, and I think this will spur the team on.
    You can only succeed, if you have faced defeat.

    Nice.

    Almost a new form of homerism.

    Miami Heat is struggling big time.

    "Regular season games don't matter to these guys"

    But the players are crying over the lost, and it's not the first time the Heat players cried.

    "It's called passion, these guys care about winning"

    Talk about excuses.

    Just a question, are you even a Rocket fan? Not trying to point you out or anything, but it seems like you're their number one ardent supporter on this forum.

    That is pretty much Atlanta sports fans in general. Their team could be great, but the only reason they would go to the game is for the "cool factor" and because it would fashionable. That's how it was for the Braves for years, and now for the Hawks and Falcons.

    I wonder the same. I know Clutchfans welcomes (mostly) all but if you're(Octavianus) a Heat fan, why not head to the Heat message boards or do they not have any or...?:confused: (Sorry, hard for me to believe this guy is a Rockets fan first who just "casually follows" the Heat as a second team.)

    Yeah but when Vick played for Atlanta the Dome was electric. He literally put fans in the seats.

    Been on this forums since Hakeem was on the rockets..
    And was one of the first people to say Trade Yao with the other smart posters, only to get flamed like crazy, only if I could fine those posts for some crow eating.

    It amuses me the lies and crap people post about Miami and Lebron.
    Just like to point out the mistakes, and humour myself.
    The hate is just as bad as the RealGM hate and so if the IQ of the posters.

    Also, while the regular season means nothing, it's more for the Coach and Pat Riley not to worry about ,then the players. You don't see Pat Riley firing Spo right now, as he know's the team can redeem themselves in the playoffs.

    The internet is a pretty big place, I can go to Heat boards, I can go to Rocket Boards, I can go to Lakers Boards and still look at my "goddess"
    Why do people post in Heat Threads then, being rocket fans, they shouldn't even be posting in NBA Dish? Am I right?
