Lebron and Wade piggybacked the Heat for the first god knows how many minutes of the game. But Lebron's been a disaster in the last few minutes of a game as of late. The guy just can't get anything going in the clutch. Wide open 3 today, front ironed pretty bad, and his heave for three against the Bulls wasn't even close.

Btw, Bosh sucks.

dude they rank 29th in the league in assist-per-game....thats good?

do you know why? Check their 3rd quarter and end of 1st quarter line ups when they go iso-heavy with Lebron or Wade/Bosh. They also don't get a lot of assists out of their PGs. What is their assist % rank in the league?

Holy hell Miamis late game is just awful. The can lead by twenty damn points thanks to Lebron/Wade, then all of a sudden everything falls apart and they lose. Can someone explain to me what Miami is doing wrong?

Mike Miller and James Jones didn't have strong games. Bosh had a bad game (his like what, 4th of the year?). Mario Chalmers was just TERRIBLE. Really people are blowing some of the things out of proportion - Wade and Lebron did very well. Blame Chalmers if you want to point to anyone in particular.

Chalmers? That is like blaming Adam Morrison when the 08 Lakers lost to the Celtics.

Did you actually SEE the game? The comparison to the Lakers isn't even plausible.

I saw the game. Blaming someone who should not be a rotation player on an NBA team for a loss is not fair.

I blame Bosh and Miller for the loss, they did not play well, and had a few too many miscues late.

Point is he IS a rotation player and has been the entire year. Whether he shouldn't be isn't even relevant to the fact that he was on the court.

The perimeter defense in the last quarter was LOL for Miami. Open 3 after open 3.

It was nice to see the Magic make a game of it in the second half. I don't know what the numbers say but I am not a fan of the Heat's half court offense. It isn't so much bad, as it should just be better. In any case, it was funny to see Bosh take that three near the end and Mike Miller (who has one of the oddest skill sets in the league) grab that rebound for a second opportunity. I imagine Lebron hits that *wide open* three...33% of the time? 35%?

If Kenyon Martin's turnover at the end of the Nuggets/Jazz game would have been converted, sending the game into OT, that would have certainly been one of the worst mistakes in the NBA this year...

Who tries to goad the opponent into slapping at the ball only to lose the inbound pass to a defender who is basically underneath the basket? Fail on AK47's part for not finishing the layup and punishing that ridiculous blunder.
