Miami Game Thread

You understand that the caricature is of the fan who thinks that the refs are always out to screw their team and always make calls against them, right? Even in a game where the team fouls are currently even.

That's more cliche than caricature.

And the even fouls thing is something I never understood. If you're playing the '89 Pistons and the fouls are even, you're probably getting screwed.
 
Miami has missed 12 shots. They have gotten six offensive rebounds and turned them into 14 second chance points.

But yeah, it's the refs fault.
 
Oh well. Teams have stopped pussyfooting around with our unathletic gaggle of 3-point launchers. We've been playing over our heads all year, and teams are just sick of it.
 
Omier has played 10 minutes. He has 9 points and 7 rebounds. He is almost outrebounding our whole team by himself.
 
On both offense and defense, we play like the hoop is located someplace other than where it is.

We don't try to get to it enough or defend it enough.
 
How many more times do we let Wooga shoot an open 3? Do we ever get a defensive board or loose ball??
 
There have been only 7 times that Miami missed a shot and we managed to get the rebound. Its unbelievable this game is as close as it is.

Miami has 26 points on 33 possessions on their "first chances". They have 16 points on seven offensive rebounds.

That is pathetic. But it also tells you that if we would just rebound the basketball, and on those occasions when we do not get a defensive rebound if we would just play solid defense this game is there for the taking.
 
Fede needs to extract his head from his ass and play some defense in the lane, maybe get a couple blocks and some rebounds and we will be OK in half 2.

Completely agree. Keep it about even and this is certainly a winnable game.
 
Also, if the Iaz Graham could only play offense; he might be good. He needs to earn that D in his name. Really bad defense and rebounding from him, but in his defense, he shouldn’t have been relied on for this if Hugley was worth a shit
