Stotts has no clue what he's doing on defense. How the hell do you double Wade who could not hit anything all night and leave Bosh wide open for the three? CLUELESS. Stotts just cost them the game, he is in over his head on defense, please hire a defensive assistant.

Coach Spo owned Stotts tonight. His halftime adjustments won this game, The Blazers looked lost on offense the whole second half. You got OWNED Terry, hopefully you learn from it.

I think the Blazers lost the game because of all their terrible passes in the second half. I will throw in some bad defense as well. I didn't get the last double team either.

Lillard fucked up too many passes late in the game. Hopefully he learns from those turnovers and takes the ball to the rim.

Lillard and Mo both. It was beautiful D by Miami. Suffocated them both. Our defense sucked tonight, definetly. But those turnovers were even more to blame. We had that 5-7 point lead with Miami going cold and we turned it over at least 3 out of 5 possessions. It was brutal, and that's where we lost the game, IMO.

Yeah, we lost the game because of the lazy passes. Plain and simple.

Oh well. On to the next one.

Lot of people mentioning the bad passes, but Miami's forte on defense is playing the passing lanes and forcing turnovers.

I'm just stoked that it's about Stotts, and not how un-clutch LMA is.

I understand that, but there were some that were just plain careless. Just no zing to the passes at times.

Yeah but the passes weren't regular passes. They were tossed like no one was there, when the defender was clearly there.

Yeah, that happened because Miami does a great job of pressuring the ball handlers. They doubled Lillard and Mo on every pick and roll. They should have made an adjustment to have Batum or Matthews come up to get an easier pass. Other than that, Lillard especially needs to be more patient when he's being doubled. He panics way too often and that led to some of the turnovers. Mo..... Is just stupid.

Yeah he does rush things when he's pressured

Like I said earlier, we had a lot of chances to put this game away and we couldn't shoot when we needed a lead. Buzzer beating 3 by a PF...oh well, gotta live with that. Credit to Bosh, he played a great game!

Defense is atrocious

No other way around it. You cannot lose to a Lebron less team at home. That is just a disgrace. If this defense doesn't approve we are screwed.

I agree. We lost the game early in the 4th. Blaming the loss on a 28 foot shot at the end is not a concern. My concern since game one are teams who effectively pressure our PG's 25 feet from the basket. Our PG's strengths are their shooting ability. They need help running plays against pressure teams. The other players need to come out and help.

The second unit has talent. But right now they get very few easy shots. It needs to be addressed. The first 5 minutes of the 4th was brutal to watch on offense.

There you are!

Also, say that to the other 5 times the teams have lost to a lebronless Heat. (They are now 6-1 without him.)

OK I'm calm now, I almost regret making the thread, I'm a die hard fan and was heated when they double teamed. Stotts is doing a great job this year but my god the defense is killing me, That wide open Dunk Wade got at the end was BRUTAL! worse case this game should of gone to overtime, Instead Wade got a uncontested Dunk in 6 seconds which gave the Heat another Possession to win it. That was the worst game I have ever seen Lillard play, he had some just awful turnovers. For some strange reason I actually think they would of won if LBJ would of played, this shit seems to always happen when there's a star out. Oh well move on and win the next one please.
