Heat and Celtics: Game 2

The Heat will take on the Celtics tonight and will have a bit of an equalizer – no Kevin Garnett.

KG decided to do the chicken dance with Q-dog’s head. Sure, KG is an intense competitor and probably overreacted – truthfully, I would have liked to have seen him not miss a game because of the competitive factor. Truth be told, the Heat practically gave the game away with 24 turnovers – many of them unforced from just dropping the ball. Literally, the Heat let the game slip away. The Celtics bend but not break defense held as the Heat tried to do too much.

The question tonight is, if the Heat can play like they did in game 1, can they right the ship and use their advantage of not having to deal with Kevin Garnett in the paint? What will the Celtics do to counter? We’ll find out more tonight, but the Heat really should win this game – if they don’t, they must hold serve at home. If the Heat win, they have an interesting scenario to play with as they head back to Miami.

Will Pacers Present Stronger Challenge than Knicks?

The Miami Heat made quick work of the New York Knicks and, let’s be honest, there wasn’t much drama besides the fire extinguisher and the bump in Game 4. The signature defense was there, although the Heat had trouble containing Carmelo Anthony’s barrage in the final 2 games of the series. The Indiana Pacers, however, [...]

    the real real disappointing thing about this game was the total and utter lack of effort from the team, minus wade ofc.

    Its actually scary to think O’Neill is earning $23M for them performances, he might as well wear a ski mask while doing it cos he is robbing the Heat!!

    And dont even start me on Bustley, what a waste of a draft pick! The sonner we dump that loser, the better

    Heres Hoping Riley can pull off another “Shaq” type deal again this off season for Miami cos lets be honest, this is a one man team and that one man is bound to be getting pissed off of carrying this team game in, game out

    Is this team capable of winning the next four out of five games???? not a chance in hell imo
