or lose out and give themselves a shot at zion.

i'd rather make the playoffs. heat's chances would be slim to nab the first pick.

ZION on the heat would be pretty incredible.. just thinking about it, he'd look good in a heat jersey.

i'd hate to see him end up on the Knicks. only sports org I truly dislike. :D

would be cool to see him on the Bulls .. imagine if he ends up with LEBRON in LA? lmfao.

i'm already excited about ZION2020. *Almost* LEBRON level hype entering the league.

epic game between TOR/MIA.

Bam missed making the game winner by 0.01s.. made it but had it in his fingertips when the buzzer when time ran out.

man this shouldnt even be in OT tho.. MIA so good at giving up leads.

MIA has to win this game to stay alive. and TOR is fighting for home court in the finals vs the West coast team (if they make the finals).

so both teams are playing for alot.

YOU DONT NEED a 3.

MIA picked a good time to lose 4 games in a row.

all close games tho..

the story with MIA is this jack-up-3-pointers syndrome. they get themselves in position to win, and then they just jack up 3 after 3, abandoning what got them there.

I think this game vs TOR they went 12-35 or something from 3.. they were on fire in the paint/driving to the basket all game.. then they end it with like 10+ straight 3 pointers.



if DET/BKN both win tonight, MIA is out.

MIA doesn't deserve to be in tho, playing like this. so frustrating.

even wade... a guy who can get to the rim better than anyone, jacking up contested 3's when we don't need to.

I don't think he's better than D-Wade, by a decent margin. But, PP was pretty good. Here's both players through 16 seasons (the most D-Wade will play when he retires after this season). If you respect advanced metrics, PP has better shooting and rebounding numbers, better VORP, more Win Shares (WS), and the same WS/48mins. He was a pretty skilled offensive player and is probably close to top 50 all-time. (Of course, playoff Wade >>> playoff PP, and Wade's '09 season was one of the best statistical peaks ever.)

For sure. Paul Pierce is a beast. I personally don't think he's in the same class as Wade, but I think the real issue is how adamant he seems, in that he's better than Wade. I think that's why most people are roasting him. He made himself an easy target.

Wade & Pierce have very different styles on the court. Pierce reminds me more of a Harden-like scorer, I mean he was a very aggressive scorer. Wade penetrates & dishes etc, has no problem trying to get everyone involved. Plus he was a throwback SG, not settling for 3's but instead going in for mid-range jumpers. Wade is also a top defensive guard, he was a threat on both ends of the court. So I think comparing them stats-wise is tough.

Last night, when Wade was asked whether he'd try to beat Kobe's 60 in his last game, he kinda threw a jab at Kobe.. he said something like "that's not me. it's not how i play. i get my teammates involved. the only time i've scored more than 50 is when someone really pissed me off." lol.

Kobe's 60 was impressive though, I remember being shocked. I don't care how much you ballhog.. when you've had that many injuries and have been so beat up all season, and then drop 60, that's insane.

HEAT getting killed by the NETS. Heat need to get back in this game tho and end it strong.

They destroyed PHI last night.

And talking about PHI.. Pierce mentioned not playing with anyone early on in his career. Go talk to AI, who didn't play with anyone, well except maybe Mutumbo, and got the 76rs to an NBA championship, AND stole game 1 vs the Dynasty Lakers which had Kobe/SHAQ. AI was the truth. Put him on any of these stacked squads of today and the NBA would be in serious trouble. AI literally had to ball hog to get his team W's.

As for the Heat's bad closeout of the season, J-RICH has been hurt for the last ~4-5 games or so.. and that's when we slid.

It's kinda cool how we had this unique throw back style 2G in Wade, and then we somehow found a similar player in J-RICH. J-Rich is very solid, he's fun to watch. He'll become lethal if his J improves.
