Question Heat win, Heat win, Heat win

in all seriousness but Pacers only -1. I guess the books are playing the "due" factor. The Heat have lost all confidence and things are falling apart everywhere for them. I suppose if they ever win a game this might be one but very surprised at the line

Any thoughts?

Either way I'm taking Indy 4th quarter, Heat sometimes manage to play 3 good quarters of basketball, but always come through for me in the 4th.

Well Dr. Jack, you have to look at a lot of things here. Face facts, Alonzo is out, Shaq is out, Smush is out... that right there blows a lot of their confidence out. It's the feeling they can't do right without these guys. Their like virgins with Pamala Anderson standing right in front of them naked not knowing what to do. Dwayne Wade has been playing spectacular with all their key players out though. Indiana however might again be without starting point guard Jamaal Tinsley which means a lot of their scoring will be missing. Jermaine O'neil is still out which definitely hurts Indiana too. Knowing that a lot of stars are out of this games gives me two thoughts. LOW SCORING GAME!!! No way this will go near 201.5 points that the WCLC is offering. 15 game loosing streak, what an embarrassment for one of the best coaches in NBA history. Indiana is on a 4 game road trip loosing the last two, VERY tiring for them to do all this traveling. This is Miami's 6th game at home in a row. NO WAY the fans will go home disappointed tonight. Saturday night is high and dry for the Heat. Miami WILL get a win tonight, no question!

Smush was a complete waste to sign. Of course they miss Zoe and Shaq but they actually can run a little more without them

The biggest problem in Miami is no one can hit an open shot besides Wade or play a bit of defense. I hope the Heat can stop the bleeding but not sure it will happen today. I agree with sesh though - play against them in 4th until they prove they can get through one without a meltdown.

As far as not losing at home again – they have only won 4 at home all year long!

Hopefully they get one today

GL everyone

Tank top?? LMAO.. who the hell told you it was a Miami Heat tank top he wears out in public? It's a banana hammock with the "Heat" logo on the front of it that he wears out in public... and you should see the stuff he wears when he's sober!!
