I guess they used up their one watchable game voucher for the month.
 
We're obviously missing the G league guys tonight
 
Where the hell have Norm Roco and Nance and Ant been all game?
 
Either we are purposely tanking or there is no accountability by coach,
I honestly just don’t think Billups has a clue. That’s why I feel they should shut Dame down and let him learn to coach and give the young players some time to grow.
 
That's how you beat the Heat....get their players ejected!
 
Couldn't shoot for the entire half...hope it rubs off on them second half
 
We were down by 20 at one point in the second so at least we closed out the half well.
 
Robinson can have a wide open three whenever he wants it
 
How did we fail to notice the huge advantage we have inside until the last five minutes of the half? They have NO rim protection.
 
...looking at the halftime box score, I predict the Blazers will have a huge second half comeback and win by 10+ pts :crystalball:
 
that 2nd T on Lowry was total bullshit. If I was a Heat fan I'd be real pissed

Blazers have outscored Miami by 14 points from the FT line
Thats mean if we was making them we probably be closer in this game. 76 percent from the line is not good for us due to we need every point possible to have a chance to win.
 
Couple of observations:

1. I played hoops with a big guy. One game in college, he comes in and says "I'm fouling out today." And he did. Maybe took him 10 minutes. That's what I see sometimes when I see Nurk. He got his act together in the last 6 minutes of the second quarter, but some of the shots and defensive breakdowns he had before that were like my buddy just wanting to be anywhere but on the court that day.

2. We have a bunch of guys who can shoot, but we don't really have many shooters. I mean guys who can catch and shoot and they're open you just feel pretty good that it's going in.

3. The Heat are a well-coached, well-constructed team. They have their couple of stars but the guys around them fit. Most of all, their role players make 3s off the catch with consistency and they scrap, scramble and hustle on defense, even if they're out-athleted.
