Don't suck

[kntresistheheat]

These boys can play, even without Love.

[dimgim]

Yeah the Wolves can ball, Rubio might get 20 assts the way Miami over persues on defense he'll be finding people open all over the place.

[SteBO]

They play in Orlando tomorrow night, so could enter this game riding a 5-game winning streak. They move the ball exceptionally well, and Rubio being back makes a pretty significant difference in terms of getting great looks for the Pekovic's and Derrick Williams' of the world. Luke Ridnour has killed us in the past too I think.

Should be a really good game. If we remain consistent on the defensive end, we should be alright but MIN is no joke.

[justinnum1]

rubio might not play. he is not going to play orlando and miami. he wil play one or the other. not sure the status on love, but i want him to play to help my fantasy team lol

[beasted86]

Boy I am least a little relieved we are no longer starting Battier to battle against Love on the boards.

Haslem will probably still get manhandled, but Battier would get raped.


Key to this game: If we hold Love and Pekovic to under 22 boards, we win.

Spoelstra said Ray Allen was hit in the head during full-padded practice. Finished workout and is expected to play Tues vs Minnesota.

Mario Chalmers strikes again

Mario Chalmers strikes again

lol glad he's ok though.

damn i hate the nights when the heat don't play. just gotta watch and hope the rockets can beat the knicks, and the okc/spurs game should be entertaining at least.

[SteBO]

We should just attack the rim......no reason to settle for outside shots.

[justinnum1]

Rubio not playing.

[Dade County]

Klove would look good in a HEAT jersey

[Hawkeye15]

Rubio is not playing back to back's yet, and quite frankly, after his horrific showing in Orlando last night, he needs to be eased back in.

I expect you guys to roll us, the only prayer we have is catching fire outside, and not turning the ****ing ball over left and right.

[SteBO]

Yeah but the naughty things Love could do to us tonight makes me cringe.....
