Game Day: Heat (10-25) @ Suns (10-25), Tues 1/3/17

Wide open 3 after wide open 3.

I'm not sure the last time I saw Booker get a wide open shot was.

He probably missed it anyway....

[Cap]

Just once this game I want to see the ball in MacGruber's hands when the shot clock runs out on Miami. Followed by the appropriate sound cue.

You know it's McGruder, right? Am I ruining the joke?

Yes to both.

[carey]

Yes to both.

Sorry

Btw we haven't commented on Knight's DNP. I guess we will test if we play better when Knight does not play.

[Danimal]

Getting less and less enamored with Booker each time out. Help me stay on board plz.

Yes his attitude hasn't been great lately but I maintain he is being played wrong. Having to create and dribble too much off pnr. Not enough catch and shoot opportunities

We need some more dribble and pass players.

It was going seeing Len bender and ulis out there together. Ulis sure is pesky. Don't really miss knight since barbosa easily fills in for him but with slightly more self control

Booker just hit an open shot. It was 6 feet behind the 3point line.

Booker seems less into passing as time goes by

Agree. Booker with the +11 +/- (2nd best on the team) and 2nd in assists tonight to go along with 19 points. Trade the bum.

[Flagrant Fowl]

Booker's second three immediately followed by a TO by Spoelstra was hilarious. Half of the Heat players walked back to the bench like dogs who just got caught eating socks by their owner.

[Mori Chu]

It's starting to get to the point where whenever Booker pulls up for a jumpshot, I expect him to miss.

[Cap]

Nice pass from Bledsoe to Chandler under the rim.

[Mori Chu]

Chandler having a very strong rebounding game. Chriss having a really strong outing, too.

[carey]

I'm done trying to figure out Watson's rotations. It looks like he's just throwing stuff at a wall and seeing what sticks. Warren killed it last night and tonight he starts but only gets 17 minutes and 2 points.

[djy2j]

One of these teams had to win. Remember that.
Glad the kids got some burn. Ugly as hell but they did.

Glad we held Willie Reed to just 22 and 18

There isn't really a pattern to it with most players. We are ina transition of giving the young guys more minutes but trying to appease some of the vets before we trade them. An imposisble task. Consequently some lineups the past two games were down right weird. That bench unit looked good defensively tonight. Need bender to be a little more aggressive in offense and subbing duds for tucker would balance that as well. That would also be a good passing unit.

[Split T]

Missed the game, reading on here would make it seem like booker was terrible tonight. Is the box score misleading? 27 points on 9/19 shooting looks pretty good. Chriss also looks like he had a good game.

Looking at the standings, we're actually 8-4 against the East this year, but 3-21 against the West. We might be a playoff team out East
