**The Official 2012-13 NBA Thread**

They'll probably get blasted for that and they'll be called cocky, but when a team has that much fun and unity, they'll always be a force, regardless of the sport.

 

Anyone have any idea on Wade's status tonight? In leery of taking the magic lightly, they've pushed the Heat to the brink twice already.

 

Expected to play, pending the pregame warmup.

 

Ugh why did you get rid of the dunk on Terry pic!!!! too funny to look at.......

 

Sect, you think Wade knee needed a rest?
I'm suspecting that Spo is just getting a head start on the maintenance program.

 

I could see Spo letting some guys rest in the next couple of games. Maybe giving more bench time to the big 3 during games.

 

Vujevic likely out tonight. He's the guy who gave the Heat trouble

 

If you noticed, in the last few games, Lebron is wearing full knee pads on both knees, and girdle. A lot of the other players are doing the same.

Yes, it is the start of the maintenance program now.

I suspect that they will only play full rotation minutes in the Bulls, Knicks, Spurs, and Celtics games.

Oh and Wade is being held out of tonight.

he shot around today, team decided to hold him out.

 

Thank God. He may have had 40 rebounds tonight

 

Saw a Tannehill Jersey.

 

You went to the game last night? I think I saw the same guy.

 

They're in Orlando, but cool @ the guy traveling with the team.

 

Think I see someone in a #47 Michael Irvin jersey O_o

 

LOL.


Seriously though, the only stat I look at as far as LeBron is concerned is the number of rebounds/assists, short of a triple double, at the end of the night.

Tonight: 1 rebound. One.


Last game it was 1 rebound.
Couple games ago, it was 2 rebounds and 2 assists.

 

27.

 

So what you're saying is, Lebron is a ****ty rebounder??

 

...and they consider this guy a "complete player" pshaw.

 

As soon as a Triple Double is about to be had?

Yes. He is terrible at it.

 

Some people don't have the gene, when a clutch statistical rebound is needed??

Folds.

I love how Lebron has silenced the critics so much that the only way they can take their hate out is in jest

 

When JR is playing like this, I start to believe we can be the 2nd best team in the East.

 

Melo has been getting hacked like a mofo....home cooking and the NBA go hand and hand.

 

You lost me at JR

 

Slowly regaining confidence in my rebellious slaves...

 

Copeland is just so mediocre.

 

Were they playing in Boston. If so, yep.

 

yes in boston and yes he was getting hacked like crazy. That just fires up JR Smith who dropped 32 on the boston geezers

 

Solid on offense but on D...non-existant. But considering we're paying him peanuts (by NBA standards) hes ok.

 

Solid on offense? Dude looks so uncoordinated with the ball it's laughable.

Based on indexed production, the Miami Heat has the two best contracts in the NBA.

Shane Battier and Ray Allen.

 

Chalmers has one more year on his contract right Sec?
I'd hate to let him go,

Also this

 

Ricky Ledo would replace him nicely at the end of the 2014 season.....

Just remember the name....

Keep chucking Nate.

 

Bulls Smullz

 

Robinson has been on fire.

 

Looks like Wade and the gang are still at a party somewhere.

Gonna have to get over the hangover and be ready for the 2nd half.

 

The way the heat find them self in these holes is just annoying they just play straight up lazy *** ball in the 1st half and commit such stupid turnovers. Will they come back and win this game probably but if they pull this **** in the playoffs its going to be long series instead of sweeps as per usual for this heat team.
