Game Day Open Thread -- Heat -- Second Half
Gotta make this quick. Eric Spoelstra just sent me a text message asking if I would play some PG in the second half. Wish me luck. I'll try not to dribble off my own heel like Chris Quinn.

Sergio couldn't power the Blazers offense cause Miami was doing a good job on the Pick and Roll

our offense was fine with sergio

Oden is just killing the Blazer spacing
He just tried to pick for Roy on the same side LMA is posting up.

arent those plays being called for oden to screen

Its simple basketball spacing...LMA should be getting the ball when Beasley has 3 PFs

thats fine
but that again, is not Odens problem, i highly doubt oden is running out and calling screens himself….thats for Nate to call the ball to LMA if hes running plays, right?

freaking Blazers scared of the ball.

Is it me, or is it never fun to watch Miami play
because it feels like Wade will always get the benefit of the doubt?
Doesn’t matter who’s winning or losing, you just know Wade can do no wrong in the refs eyes?
Watching Miami isn't fun because we have to watch guys like Chris Quinn, Yakuba Diharrea and Mark Blount step on the court at the same time

This is one of those games Roy decided he’s not gonna play with the ball until its necessary

Looks like the Blazers decided to take the ball out of Blake's hands and give it to Roy

Maybe Frye needs glasses or contacts.
Years ago a young Blazer who kept missing shots did get contacts after the team finally had him examined.

Roy misses a 3 after the buzzer
Portland leads by 19 after three. They kept their lead and held Miami off.
Wade desperately wants to take over in the fourth. He used the Joel incident to feel slighted.

I don't expect to see him in a game that possibly could become close again

The pick and roll ain’t working tonight. The Heat is playing good D jumping out on the ball. This happened a lot last year and Blazers couldn’t manage to counter.
BINGO, BANGO, BONGO
The difference between Oden when he is getting fouls and not getting fouls is energy.
He jumps to go for a block and never fouls. He stands on his feet and plays lazy that is a foul for him. He needs stamina.
wow, we are so lucky we outscored em by 20 in the 1st

To be fair, POR has been in "hold the lead" mode ever since
They’d be playing differently if they were tied.
Nate is not happy they’re not as aggressive now.

Miami isn't jumping on pick and rolls in the 4th
Sergio’s effectiveness is always due to 2 factors.
1. Teams defending the pick and roll….staying back and not jumping on it
2. Jumpshots going down.

He kept the shot count down to the manageable 3 level.
His bread is buttered with the slick passes, he’s never gonna “develop a jump shot,” in all likelihood — but as long as he keeps playing within himself, playing his own game and not trying to be Steve Blake, no problems. Three shots of less…

but was unsuccessful tonight, his third dimension is coming, wait how many assists did he get? his fourth dimension is coming
Martell probably will start soon after he comes back.
That means Batum will lose time until he is needed defensively. Rice says Martell is really shootin light out now with all the practice time he has.
This team is really deep!
Who is going to not dress when Martell comes back? Ike?

No question it's Ike
Although that leaves only four bigs dressing, not counting Outlaw.
But yeah, assuming Nate sticks with a ten man rotation, it will be interesting to see who makes the cut. Hate to see anybody lose time, actually. Batum is really, really playing well. I guess Frye would have to be the favorite with Trout shifting to the four?
Frye is a really solid bench guy for most teams. Even good ones – Cleveland, for instance, would love to work him into their rotation. Crazy that he could be the odd man out.
Definitely possible Nic takes a seat, too, until some space clears up. He’s going to be very solid.
Loved Trout’s game tonight. Unselfish, took it to the rack, aggressive in spots. Actually played smart. He’s too talented to be in the running for a bench spot.

I started noticing him last year. What is this, his 7th year? If you look at his career stats, it seems his second year in the league he had very similar numbers...
………………………. I’ve got a friend that’s a huge Bucks fan and he really thinks Pryz is worthless, which I find unbelievably comical.
"Now with a non-provocative footer!"
My point, of course, is that on the one hand, we go wild over Pryz who finally
started to deliver in his sixth year, and we bag on Oden who hadn’t yet delivered in his 6th game.
Loved Oden's game tonight

Why?
He’s a bad prognosticator, and some of his stats are flawed/simplistic, but he’s MUCH more insightful than most of the typical espn-analyst types. He, Thorpe, and Simmons are all way above the curve in my book, for very different reasons.
Really not good at predictions, a lot of the time, but he improves the level of conversation in the mainstream media, I think.

For instance
A lot of analysts (probably the majority) were saying Iverson was the best player in the Nuggets-Pistons deal. Hollinger recognized that Billups instantly transformed the Nuggets into a likely playoff team. Although granted, his reasoning was a little flawed.
I think Berri and the advanced analytics people are way above Hollinger’s PER-centric methods, but compared to most, he’s a step above.

"You're really making me feel good about myself, little man," says Oden as he starts dancing after scoring a goal. "You better come harder than that."
Camby misses a 3 and Clips lose to the Nugs
Seriously, clips had 8 seconds left and a timeout, and instead they don’t call a time out and end up with Marcus Camby taking a long 3 pointer from the top of the key, when only down by 1.
And people wonder why the Clips suck…. (no, wait, they don’t)
I just got back from the game
And I have a few observations, about both this team and Miami, and figured this was the best place to make them.
1) Rudy and Batum both fit the definition of hungry. There was one point in the fourth quarter, we were up big, and Channing nails a corner three. Rudy comes running in from just beyond the three point line and off a bit to the other side from Frye’s shot, and he is the closest player to the ball after it goes through the net. Many other other players would have already been jogging back, or maybe hang around the perimeter after the shot went up, knowing it didn’t really matter what happened. Batum fouling a guy going after an offensive rebound with 2.7 seconds left to play in a 38 point blowout told me once again that he is going to be something in this league. I don’t know what yet, but he is going to be very, very, good.
2) Sergio looked really, really, good tonight. He was always moving around, and making beautiful passes. I didn’t really see any points where he was making stupid decisions, or forcing anything. He looked really natural, and really smooth. He could very well be very good.
3) Oden, on the other hand, just doesn’t look like he is really enjoying himself out there. Fortunately, I think his biggest problem will be fixed, where he holds the ball. The Heat threw men on him every time he touched the ball tonight, and he didn’t get too frustrated. And listening to the post-game interview waiting in the Rose Garden parking lot, he sounded like the saddest man in the world. I think it is because he shaved the beard.
4) This is really going to tweak Hollinger’s ratings again, and once this game doesn’t count (because later in the season he stops counting the beginning of the season) we’ll drop back down to probably roughly where we belong. But it is fun to think we are in the top 5 best teams in the NBA. Improbable, but fun.
5) First thing I noticed from the Heat tonight was how foolish their uniforms look. Basically, my big issue is the way it deals with the nameplates. Mario Chalmers, which is not a long name by most stretches of the imagination, looks horrid. His name looks way too big for his back.
6) The longer Beasley was in the game, the less I liked him. I’ll admit, I was already kind of ready to dislike him after what happened in the Rookie Transition Program. But after seeing him pop 3-Pointers early in the game, when you still have D-Wade out on the floor, and then watching him nonchalantly jog back down the floor? No thanks. I recall one sequence where a loose ball rolled near him, and he didn’t pick it up. Sergio (I think) picked it up, and started running down the floor. Beasley just jogs next to him, and makes no attempt to disrupt Sergio running down the floor. I was disgusted. Rose on TV looks like a way better pick-up than Beasley, and I don’t know why Chicago was even pretending to think about Beasley. Also, after picking up his quick two fouls, he made to slowest walk back to the bench I have ever seen. I wish he had of at least jogged back to the bench, to show he still wanted to hustle.
7) Erik Spolestra is a crazy animated coach. It was interesting to see the contrast between him and Nate, who’s HUGE pant-legs moved more than his upper body. It seemed like every time that the Heat were bringing the ball up the floor he was calling a play. Even on an inbounds from the side he was making hand signals and yelling at his players. I don’t know if that is the sign of a micromanaging coach, or a coach who doesn’t trust his players. Either way, I’m not sure I would enjoy it if I were a player on the Heat. It seems to me that him showing hand-signals every time the Heat do something is a great way for them to lose games, merely because teams with a halfway decent film department and at least one game against the Heat can figure out what the plays are going to be based on his hand signals. Hand signals worked well in my high school YMCA league, not sure how well they are going to work every night in the NBA.
9) I have to say, we as a fanbase really, really want to love Oden. Every time he did anything that made it to the stat sheet, or even sat down, he got a huge cheer, even though Joel is really playing out of his mind, and looks like he has the mindset of “If I want to block a shot, I’m gonna block that shot. No questions.” And I have no idea how come everyone in attendance was standing and yelling and screaming for a full minute in a timeout with a forty point lead at the end of the game. I would really like to know what other fanbase would do that. It was ridiculous. I felt like I was back at college watching a basketball game, where you stand just because you can. It was legit.
This got kind of long, maybe I should have made it into a fanpost, or cut down on the words. Sorry.
no way, don't apologize
love to read this stuff. i would say this definitely is warranted as a fanpost. i’m not sure how many people are going to bother coming back into this thread at this point.
on point number 9)
the standing ovation was for Pryzabilla’s performance after he had rejected beasley’s crap on a couple successive possessions. He got a LONG standing ovation when he went to the bench, it wasn’t for Oden coming in.
