phantom call for wade, carter was fouled but no call, and dooling hits a big shot to tie the game with 8 seconds left
 
Interesting decision by Frank to play Yi and Simmons late game. It's usually Hayes and Harris in this situation, but with Harris out, I'd expect Hayes and Najera or Hassell rather than Yi. Interesting.

Yi has played pretty solid tonight, he actually deserves to play in crunch time tonight.
 
Wade has terrific defensive basketball instincts. Great block again on Lopez. In another perspective, it is unacceptable for Lopez to get blocked by Wade like that...
 
both those blocks there was body contact. If lopez blocked wades shots they be fouls,,,
 
98-96 heat, 10 seconds left heat ball. Who shall the nets foul?
 
beasley choked, heat up by 3 with 10 seconds left....Come on carter we need your magic one more time.....
 
Yi play not that good tonight, he has not much energy, can't protect the rebounds well, may be due to back to back, he did a ok defense game, a better offense game, but nets lost, everything is useless. frank failed to do a better job to stop wade, he put carter on wade, Yi help defense and double team, when wade pass carter's side, the double team broke, lopez's help defense can do nothing, in my opinions, put Yi on wade straight and carter help defense is a better answer, Yi is tall, he can guard wade's shot, but he isn't quick enough, when wade pass Yi, carter can help defense and do a double team.

I don't blame lopez in this game, he just a rookie, frank can't put too much offense pressure on him and he was tired, in this game, boone would do a better job.
 
I cannot stand Heat commentators....they are they most annoying commentators in the league.

They drool when Wade goes to the basket. As if they won a ring or something.

Your right in the first half Yi did do alot of help defense with VC against wade. It worked for most of the first half, but if you remember the last few plays of the half wade seemed to figure it out. Wade had a killer second half scoring most of his points. Can't really blame Frank here, wade is a superstar that gets alot of superstar calls from the refs. What i think really killed the nets was the points by a unknown called diawee or whatever his name is. He hit five or six 3's. .

I have no complaints here the nets were short handed missing one of their stars and played tough in an OT loss.
It was a good game for dooling, and nice balanced scoring by the starting team. And, a good learning experience for the young players.

The nets are a 500 team and will win one lose one kinda team. They are now 5-1 in OT and thats not a bad record, actually they are like 9-1 over the past 2 years. Tough game tough loss.
 
Diawara was a beast, gotta admit. Wade, once again, superior to VC when it comes down to the clutch moments of Nets vs Heat.
 
good to see wades best teammates show up again... the REFS!!
