IMO, we missed a golden opportunity this offseason when we could've hired Byron Scott. He would've been PERFECT to lead a team like this. Even if it were just Wade and Bosh and LBJ had never come along. Once the season ended I would've made that hire without thinking twice.

Pittman was impressive in the pre-season. I know we don't usually play young guys but he could really make a difference with his size down low. I am definitely in favor of letting him get some minutes.

I don't think its just motivating them though. They don't respond to the guy and its shown all season. A proven winner at every level like Riley is what's needed here. Someone these guys can respect and respond to under adversity. I have no faith that when things are going bad for this team, that Spo is the type of person who can get them to respond positively. Bron's defense was solid tonight. Wade got caught cheating a lot defensively. He gambled waaay too much instead of getting to work defensively and staying on Rush. Indiana also set a ton of great screens tonight which Wade couldn't fight through at all.

I'm sorry, but Doc is a hell of a motivator, played in the NBA(huge factor here) and knows how to get through to his guys. Jerry Sloan has taken teams to the NBA Finals and would have won a few had it not been for #23. This team needs a motivator. Someone who can rally them together and get them to play hard every second of every game. Spo doesn't command respect from anyone, not even his own coaching staff. That's a huge problem for me and is part of what I've said all along. He's not the right type of coach for this team.

Team comes out flat yet again. Its clear that Spo isn't reaching these guys because they don't respect him. Is there any doubt that he needs to get the axe at this point? Dude is ridiculously in over his head.

This can go right between LR and Dropout for me to be honest. He reeeeally outdid himself on this one. The music is so perfect, and the lyrics don't disappoint either. Me personally, I still think Late Registration is his best work, followed by this and then Dropout, Graduation and 808's.

As lazy and out of shape as he is...he'll still make a difference underneath. We needed him regardless.

This is a must win. If we lose I expect Spo gone by tomorrow.

Perfect album. I don't think any other album this year even comes close.

Wow. That's really saddening stuff right there. RIP to the little boy and prayers go out to his family.

Roy Williams is an excellent coach. This team is still super young. They're soft inside though. They have 2 sticks playing the 4 and 5 with Henson and Zeller. Had Ed Davis stuck around, they'd be much better.

Well that sucks. I was hoping they'd be garbage for a lot longer.

I'd be more worried about John Henson. He seems to be really struggling even moreso than Barnes. Kendall Marshall has disappointed thus far as well it seems.

Not even an NBDL team would want to take this bum.

Griffin but its close.

They'd probably have gotten to same hate that Miami is getting now and IMO would've really challenged the Kobe/Shaq Lakers, if not beat those teams and win possibly every ring until about 09. Ray Allen in his prime was filthy. They'd all be HOF'ers but I don't think any would take home an MVP award.

This sucks..

Horrible gameplan by Williams' corner tonight though and that lead to him getting KTFO. Dude should've been jabbing all night long and he wasn't. He ended up leaving himself open and never saw that one coming. His hype machine just took a huge blow.

Wow. Didn't expect that, especially that quick. I think Williams has a very bright future but that's the type of knockout that could set a guy back.

Holy [expletive].

Well they're doing the best they can (along with UF and Miss. St.) to make sure that happens.

I already acknowledged that Memphis deserved to win this game, but that doesn't mean Spo shouldn't be held accountable for yet another bonehead move.

If we did have a foul to give. There's no excuse for us not to use it. And that there is on Spoelstra. Dude is just not a good coach or leader.
