Miami shows that “Wonder Boy” is better than “Superman”

Posted in HEAT with tags , , , , , , , , , , on November 28, 2008 by pedro40heizer

When Miami made the Shaquille O’Neal trade last year, Shaq did what he does best… Run his mouth. He called Wade “Wonder Boy”, said that part of his problem in Miami was that he was playing alongside Chris Quinn and Ricky Davis, and that the HEAT medical staff never knew what was wrong with him. Shall we say that the HEAT had something to prove to O’Neal? As much as Chris Quinn and Wade might say it wasn’t.. It was. and You could see it in Wade’s eye that he was there to prove the Big cactus wrong. 

Heat Suns BasketballShawn Marion got a huge ovation from the beloved crowed in Phoenix…. O’Neal, don’t expect the same when we see you again in March down here in South Beach… “Go Ahead, boo me. I dont care, My feelings can’t get hurt” said O’Neal. Well, we shall see that. In the O’Neal - Marion comparison, Shaq had more points, 12, Marion had more assists, 6 and less turnovers, he committed zero.

Miami came into this game coming off one of it’s worst losses of the season. A 38 point loss to a young Portland Trail Blazers team. Okay, granted Phoenix did not have Steve Nash today (thigh injury) but still, in a game were Miami’s biggest lead was 19 and Phoenix never lead, it was by far one of Miami’s best game of the season versus a decent opponent.

Here at the HEAT blog, I am going to start doing something a little different, feel free to comment on it to let me know if you like it or not. I’m going to give out awards after every game. A game MVP, the biggesdt surprise of the game, the player that had the worst night so on and so forth. So, without further ado, here we go.

Game MVP: Dwyane Wade

It’s common sense to give the MVP award to Wade. Wade had 43 Points, 6 Assists, 3 Rebounds, and 1 Steal. Wade was terrific the entire way, and as i said, you could see it in his eyes that he had a chip on his shoulders from last season and all that O’Neal said about him and the rest of his team. Wade was 11-12 from the Free throw line. 2-3 from downtown and was just lighting up the floor with his amazing repertoire of skills, hitting the Js, getting teammates involved, getting to the hole. and so, for tonight’s game, Wade is the MVP.

Biggest Surprise of the game: Mario Chalmers

Heat Suns BasketballMany experts say the “Super Mario” was the steal of the draft, and I would agree with that. Mario has a terrific sense of defense, and that’s something that Erik Spoelstra has been preaching to this team. Chalmers had 5 Steals to go with 13 Points and 2 assists. He is a pain in the defensive end, Raja Bell and him almost got into a heated argument in the 3rd quarter after Bell stole the ball from him and Chalmers with his defensive swagger took it back. Many people ha said that Mario is inconsistent but I think that he has finally matured to the PG Miami needs, sure, he’s not the perfect PG yet but better then he was on the opening night.

Tough Night: Michael Beasley

The second overall pick in the NBA Draft, by far had the worst game of his young career. Zero points in 13 minutes of play. He did not start for the 1st time in his career, had only 2 steals, and 5 rebounds.. Beasley is learning that the NBA game is not the same game he played at Kansas State. Here in the pros Mike, the players deserve to be in it, in college not all players on the court deserve to be on it. I’m sure that Beasley is going to shake this game off and come back to the starting rotation tomorrow.

Lights Out performance: Leandro Barbosa

With Steve Nash not playing, Brazilian Leandro Barbosa took the reigns at the PG spot and did a superb job. 20 points, 2 steals, and 5 assists for the sixth man are pretty solid numbers. No wonder Barbosa got the sixth man of the year award two seasons ago. He was lights out tonight versus the HEAT and keep an eye on him getting only better.

Stat of the Night: Turnovers Mia-8 Phx-19

83010085NB010_HEAT_KNICKSThis proves that Erik Spoelstra’s defensive oriented team is soon to be seen every night. The run-and-gun Phoenix Suns of 2 years ago is no more. with 19 turnovers, that was by far the Suns worst offensive games this season. The HEAT is still among league leaders in Forced turnovers per game and keep and eye out for that to continue all season long.

Miami’s next opponent is the Los Angeles Clipper Tomorrow night at the Staples Center. Game Starts at 10:30

Miami is 5-5 and poised to silence all the doubters.

     82994014VB016_WIZARDS_HEATDwyane Wade has made a living of silencing the doubters around him. People telling him he will never come back to his finals MVP form… Well, he has proved those people wrong. Wade, the NBA’s 2nd leading scorer, is the most important player if Miami wants to again see themselves in the playoff hunt this april. No one in this HEAT team wants it as more as Wade. 

     Wade has elevated all the players that he plays with. Rookie Micheal Beasley said that during the 4th quarter of the HEAT’s win over the Nets a couple of days ago he “could only stop and watch Wade put it down.” Wade has again earned his nickname “Mr. Fourth Quarter” by making most of his points during the decisive quarter. coming into the Wizards game last week at the AAA Wade had a career best 3 games with 30 or more points. Also, during the Nets game, Wade hit another career best 4 three pointers in the fouth quarter. Later he was asked on to why he hasn’t hit more threes, he said, “I didn’t need to use them before” that just shows you what Wade has in his repertoire of skills. Not shooting 3’s because he “didn’t need to”? that’s amazing. 

    With that, comes my next point. Miami is 5-5 and no one can be more to thank than Mr. Wade himself. without him, Miami could have been just as bad as last year. Granted that we now have Rookie Sensations Michael Beasley and Mario Chalmers, we have a healthy Shawn Marion playing the way he did with his time in Phoenix and a “big man” in Udonis Haslem. But none of this would mean anything if the Star Guard of the team was not back to his Finals MVP form of 2006. 

     I will keep to my prediction earlier this year, Miami will make the playoffs as a number 4 or 5 this year. Wade will win MVP and Beasley will maybe win Rookie of the Year. 

    For all the fans out there that had lost your faith in the Miami HEAT… I think it’s time to buy a new HEAT jersey and go to some games because soon you will not be able to buy tickets for the games because they will be Jammed pack full of true fans that were there in the horrible 20th season last year.

     Miami, is Back and poised to silence all of the doubters.

After 3 games, Miami is 1-2

Posted in HEAT with tags , , , , , , , on November 3, 2008 by pedro40heizer

chalmers     After the heart-breaking loss to the New York Knicks on wednesday night. The Miami HEAT had their home opener on Halloween Night, and boy did the HEAT have a treat for their fans. Miami led the entire game versus the Ron Arstest-less Sacramento Kings. Miami’s biggest lead was 38 and the game was pretty much decided by the second quarter. Miami’s Fab 5 were spectacular once again. Wade had a game high 20 points, Beasley added 17, Marion and Haslem added 13 and 14 points respectively. Rookie sensation Mario Chalmers did not have a good game, but had 2 assists and 4 steals. Sacramento had no chance to climb back into this game and Miami won by a score of 103-77.

     Many sports annalist like myself had said that the first 3 Miami games were critical games, and I will explain why I said that. New York, Sacramento, and Charlotte are very weak teams and for Miami, the road to redemption began on Wednesday with a loss that not many people would expect.

     Coach Spoelstra said on his post game conference after the Knicks loss that the defense did not show up and play the way they had been playing in the pre-season. I suppose that some of the players took that to heart because during the game versus the Kings, the defense was all over the field. What happened when the defense showed up and played? The HEAT blew the other team out of the water. So people ask, Why can’t the defense show up to every game?! Well, the answer is quite simple…. The HEAT is a undersized team. There will be nights (like the one in charlotte) in which Udonis Haslem won’t be able to defend the taller Center (in that case, Emeka Okafor). but there are other nights that Haslem will be all over the Center, (such was the case with the kings).

     So what can fans expect from this 2008 Miami HEAT team? Fans can be sure of one thing. they have something to prove, and so with that being said, don’t worry that the HEAT are 1-2 right now. The team is very young.. (they are starting 2 rookies in the line up. that’s the first time that has happen since 2003 when Miami also had 2 rookies in the line up.. they, so happened to be called, Udonis Haslem and Dwyane Wade). Give them some time to play together and grow in their team chemistry and you will see that by the All-Star break, Miami will NOT be the last place team in the NBA. 

So here is my prediction for the HEAT this year. I know it may sound a little far fetched but, I suspect the HEAT to get the 5th or 6th seed in the east this year. What do you guys think? 

 

First Game good, but not great

Posted in HEAT with tags , , , , , on October 30, 2008 by pedro40heizer

     In it’s first game since that horrible season last year, Miami comes out and losses the game. Now, people might just say “oh boy here we go again”. But when in reality, this was a pretty good game. Miami scored 115 points (second most points scored by a HEAT team in it’s opening game). 

The game seemed out of reach when Miami was down by 23 in the 3rd quarter. But, this Miami HEAT team still did not quit and they came back and went up by three with a couple of minutes left in the 4th quarter. Miami lost by five, but it sure was better losing by five then by 20 or so. rookie head coach Erick Spoelstra after the game preached on defense. he said that the defense was nowhere near where it should be and that the offence was clicking at times. He went on to say that during practices the defense is better (well no duh, during practices things always go better…)

Speaking of rookies, the HEAT started 2 rookies in it’s opening night roster (the most by any HEAT team in 21 years). Rookie sensations Micheal Beasley and Mario Chalmers were in the starting lineup alongside Dwyane Wade, Shawn Marion, and Udonis Haslem. Beasley did not have a great game, he scored only nine points in 27 minutes. He was 4-14 from the field and had three turnovers. not a great start, but everyone in Miami knows he’ll come around. In the other hand, Mario Chalmers had a sensational NBA Debut scoring 17 points, 8 assists, and 7 rebounds with 1 turnover in 35 minutes of play. May people say that Chalmers was the steal of the draft, and I believe that they are right.

The rest of the team was good as well. Wade, Marion, and Haslem scored 26, 14, 23 points respectively. Wade, had 9 assists, 7 rebounds and 5 turnovers. Marion had 11 rebounds and had a double-double. Haslem had 10 rebounds and also had a double-double.

In all, with the first game of the season in the books, Miami can now focus on the thing they lack the most… Defense. not a bad way to start the season at all.

Notes: Dwyane Wade fouled out in the end of the 4th quarter, this is the 1st time he has fouled out in 2 years. Daequan Cook had 13 points and was 3-6 from downtown with all three of them coming back-to-back in the 4th quarter when Miami needed the most. Shaun Livingston played for the 1st time since his horible knee injury and scored 2 points in 4 minutes. The HEAT next play at the American Airlines Arena on October 31st at 7pm versus the Sacramento Kings

ONE Team, ONE Theme… REDEMPTION

Posted in HEAT with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , on September 29, 2008 by pedro40heizer

This might as well be the starting five for the Miami HEAT this upcoming season. Forwards Shawn Marion, Michael Beasley. Guards, Dwyane Wade, Mario Chalmers and at Center, Udonis Haslem. Okay, so i might be wrong on the Haslem one but the rest seems pretty good to me.

The future is now for the Miami HEAT and at the annual media day it looked like the new regime is ready to - Dare I say it - “Redeem” themselves as an elite team in the NBA. So in a sense, Dwyane Wade is still not done with his Redemption. He already proved the entire world he’s back to the old flash HEAT fans came to know and love in 2006 but now he has to prove the world he’s ready to lead this new and improved Miami squad without the help of Shaquille O’Neal. 

The acquisitions of Michael Beasley, Mario Chalmers, James Jones, Jamaal Magloire alongside Chris Quinn, and Dorell Wright being resigned just turned the HEAT from a mediocre team to a contender. I’m not saying the HEAT are going to be 2009 NBA Champions, but I for sure know they are not going to win 15 games next season.

This new Miami HEAT team has the potential of being one of the very best in the NBA they just need time to prove it. And, as history shows us, our pre-season last year was horrible. think back for a second.

- Dwyane Wade was out still recovering

- We traded for Ricky Davis and Mark Blount who only played 2 or 3 preseason games with us

- Shaquille O’Neal was already sick of the HEAT and was ready to make any excuse to sit on the bench with his 10 Thousand dollar suit

But this year.. oh no this year it’s different!

- Wade is ready to go

- Our players that we got in the offseason are HERE and ready to go as well

- No cactus complaints anymore

No matter where you play a sport, if it’s a rec league, school team, or professionaly. It’s inevitable that a team needs time to gel and get chemistry. The 2007-2008 Miami HEAT did not have the luxury that so many teams had. As you can now see, the HEAT have the Big Three. no, not garnett, alen and pierce.. Wade, Beasley, and Marion. With those three players i’m certain that the Miami Heat will have a successful season and people in Miami will again have something to be happy about.

Guess who’s back HEAT Fans? Are you R3ADY for him?

For you people that don’t really know by now…. HE’S BAACCKK!

Miami HEAT superstar Dwyane Wade has had quite a summer. The “Redeem Team” as they are called, are in the gold medal match for the first time since 2000. The Tittle Redeem Team does not only go for the USA Basketball team but it can also go for Miami’s own Dwyane Wade. Wade is Redeeming himself after a disappointing season filled with injuries and surgeries, he has been trying to come back to the 2006 Final MVP form but until this summer it was in vain. But, With his legs as strong as ever, Dwyane Wade is again looking like the player who lifted the HEAT to the 2006 NBA title run.  Wade had knee and shoulder problems ever since he went to the FIBA world championship games after the 06 tittle run, but now, it seems as if he’s back in top form. All HEAT fans in the US are excited about this “new and improved” Dwyane Wade and can not wait to see him, Marion, and Beasley play together.

Wade also has to redeem himself of this horrible season that we saw Shaq leave us. He wants to prove that he can exist with out the big blob by his side. He is Dwyane Wade after all, why would he need O’Neal? Wade is once again explosive to the basket, once again he can shoot the ball with ease. His stroke has been great and he can shoot as far as the three point line in the international level.

This up-coming NBA season is going to be the season that the HEAT will be back on in Miami. With a Healthy Wade, Shawn Marion, and the 2nd pick in the NBA Draft, Michael Beasley, there really is nothing that can stop Miami. HEAT fans have been dreaming about this day ever since they saw Wade be shut-down with a good 2 months left of basketball. This 2008-2009 Miami HEAT squad will be back in the playoff picture and as I said before, the HEAT will be on in Miami again!

Wade has been a crucial part of the Men’s US Basketball team. Coming of the bench and being able to score around 19 points per game. or, if he’s not scoring, another part of his “new and improved game” will be in play. It could be his assists (he is not a turnover machine anymore), or it could be his up-tight Defense that helped the US squad get in the gold medal match.

HEAT’s off-season moves are making me sick… From 15 strong in 06, we are down to 5 strong

Posted in HEAT with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on August 8, 2008 by pedro40heizer

     Okay, so I’m not the type of person that likes to burn my team to the ground, let alone a hall of famer in Pat Riley, BUT this offseason is just making me sicker by the minute. I don’t get it! Okay, we got Beasley and we got Chalmers.. We have Wade, and we still have Marion (for now). and what about Alonzo Mourning? Is he retired? or are we seeing the Brett Farve of the NBA in Zo? I thought that after the 15-67 season Pat Riley would be ashamed of what he had done and bring together a brand new roster to this HEAT team in 2008-2009.

     Sure, he has done some of that with drafting Beasley, and trading for Mario Chalmers (The PG of the future). but with that we signed James Jones, Bobby Jones (remember him), and oh this guy named Yakhouba Diawara! oh yeah try to say that name. it’s ridiculous. apparently Yakhouba Diawar played two NBA Seasons, he played both of them with the Denver Nuggets and was averaging like 4 Points per game. he’s a bench player, and the best thing, he’s a forward… PAT! WE DON”T NEED ANYMORE FORWARDS! stop signing meaningless players and start trying to trade for players that are proved in the NBA! Perhaps a trade with the Pacers for Jamaal Tinsley? They have said they want to part ways with him.. a trade that would perhaps include Udonis Haslem could work? All i know is that we are in desperate need at the PG position. SG we got it covered with D-Wade and Ricky Davis.. opps i forgot, he signed with the Clippers. well at least we can get a PG to back-up Jason Williams? ops i forgot again, HE SIGNED WITH THE CLIPPERS as well.

     Who do we have in our roster as of today? well not any big names besides, D-Wade, The Matrix, B-Easy, Super Mario, Zo, and U-D. well tha’t right there is a very solid Starting 5: Wade, Chalmers, Beasley, Marion, and Zo. but the question is.. Who will be the bench players? sure, we have Marcus Banks and Dorell Wright. But D-Wright is looking for a better offer and if he gets it we are down to 4 strong from our championship run.. and i would hate to see Dorell leave he is my second favorite player, i got his autograph and everything. to back up at PG we have, Banks and Quinn. to back up at Forward we have Wright and Haslem. and at center… umm Mark Blount? i don’t like that. Some people are telling me that this James Jones guy is a solid player.. I’m not buying it until i see him play. And for this, you could call me Doubting Thomas i don’t really care. But please, don’t try to tell me that Bobby Jones is a “solid” player.. he’s not, that’s why he only had a 15-day contract with the HEAT last season. There are so many good free agents out there still.. Shaun Livingston, Jannero Pargo, and Stephon Marbury if the Knicks eventually cut him. I don’t care what people are saying, Marbury will have my support if he comes down to south beach. look at Ron Artest and the Rockets.. No one is throwing stones at them! so why throw stones at the HEAT? If we have Marbury and Wade at the guards, Marion and Beasley at the Forwards, and Zo Comes back.. that’s a sick line-up. Listen up HEAT fans, I know that last year was a horrible year, and I know that what Pat Riley is doing right now is making you hate him more and more. But please, KEEP HOPE ALIVE.

 Look on the bright side, not all Florida Teams are stinking this year! Look at the 1st place Tampa bay Rays! and you can’t forget to look at the 2nd place Florida Marlins!!!! AND… DWYANE WADE is owning in the olympics! (that’s my topic for next time!), and we have Micheal Beasley and Mario Chalmers!!!!

GO HEAT

HEAT lose Ricky Davis

Posted in HEAT with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on July 29, 2008 by pedro40heizer

     The lone player that played all 82 games for the Miami HEAT last season is now a LA Clipper… Ricky Davis signed a multiyear deal with the clippers on Monday. Now, I don’t know about you, but Ricky Davis is a very good basketball player and now he’s not a HEAT anymore. All this is making me a little uncomfortable… We haven’t signed any key free agents(we don’t have the money or we don’t want to spend the money). I think it’s not fair for us HEAT fans to just sit here and watch our players sign with other teams.. it’s not cool at all. I don’t know what Pat Riley is thinking right now but he better have something up those Armani sleeves of his or else people in Miami won’t be very happy.

Sure, we signed Michael Beasley, Mario Chalmers, and James Jones.. but we need a blockbuster deal! like the one that landed us J-Will, ‘toine, and Posey. we need proven vets AS well as unproven rookies like Mario and Mike. Yes i still believe that we are going to have a sick team next year, but i haven’t seen anything besides that James Jones signing and that, for me, is not very convincing that Pat wants to win again.. let’s go after Emeka Okafor! well why not? we need a Center, he can play Center. Okay, Okay, we are not going after anyone because we want to save money for the year that D-Wade becomes a free agent.

Well, if you don’t want to see D-Wade leave, then we should start signing players to compliment him. PLEASE, DO NOT get me wrong. Out Starting Line-up is almost done for next year: Chalmers, Wade, Beasley, Marion. We only need a Center. How about a trade involving Shawn Marion and/or Udonis Haslem for a nice Center and another PG besides J-Will (i don’t really like him). Ricky Davis was an awesome player for us and I wish him nothing but the best in L.A. He is going to have Marcus Camby and Barron Davis with him! good team right there. Please, Pat if you don’t want sad fans come opening night, please sign someone else that makes people like me drive from Boca Raton all the way to Miami.

Sure, i’m going to opening night! Me, being one of the only true Miami HEAT fans during this 15-67 Season, I DESERVE TO SEE MIKE BEASLEY AND MARIO CHALMERS WITH DWADE AND MARION together.. I don’t know about all the bandwagon fans.. TRUE HEAT FANS, i’m talking to you guys right now, the ones that like me were at games that were a blowout… that like me watched every single game on TV even when the score was 97-60… Let’s wait and see, Let’s count how many bandwaggon fans are going to have a MICHEAL BEASLEY jersey this up coming season. WE have the right to go up to them and say. hey bandwaggon fan! where were you last year? Oh that’s right, Cheering for the Boston Celtics!

KEEP HOPE ALIVE! NEVER LOSE HOPE!

Free Agency is upon us…

Posted in HEAT with tags , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , on July 10, 2008 by pedro40heizer

The Miami HEAT announced yesterday that they have signed Free Agent Forward/Guard James Jones. The NBA veteran appeared in 58 games (three starts) for the Portland Trail Blazers last season and averaged 8.0 points and 2.8 rebounds in 22.0 minutes while shooting 43.7 percent from the field and 87.8 percent from the foul line. Jones also shot 44.4 percent from three-point range last season finishing with the third-best mark in the NBA. 

Miami, needing key free agents goes and signs Jones. many people think it’s a ridiculous thing. especially when they heard that the HEAT signed him to a 5-Year deal…. I don’t think that’s such a good idea. Hopefully he doesn’t turn into another fluke like Luke Jackson, Penny Hardaway, Smush Parker. Hopefully this guy can actually shoot from three under pressure unlike that guy Luke Jackson who was horrible for Miami in his short stay in South Beach.

 

IN OTHER NEWS…..

 

 The Miami HEAT announced that they have signed guard Mario Chalmers, the 34th pick in the 2008 NBA Draft. Chalmers, was acquired by the HEAT in a draft day trade with the Minnesota Timberwolves in exchange for two 2009 second round picks and cash considerations. Kudos to Pat Riley, knowing we needed a PG. This guy, is the steal of the steal of the draft. I can’t wait to see him in a HEAT uniform this season. 

Chalmers has many awards in his resume but one that stands out is the Most Outstanding Player of the 2008 NCAA Tournament Final Four. For you that don’t know, Chalmers is the one who scored the 3 with the clock running out to tie the game and send it to overtime, where Chalmers and Kansas, defeated Derrick Rose and Memphis.

This kid is awesome, During his three seasons as a Jayhawk, he averaged 12.2 points, 3.8 assists and 2.57 steals, while shooting 48.6 percent from the field and 41.9 percent from three-point range. He led the Big 12 in steals in all three of his seasons and currently ranks as the second all-time leader in Kansas history with 283 steals. He holds the single-season mark for steals in a season with 97, set during both his sophomore and junior seasons and also ranks sixth all-time in three-point field goals made (180), 12th in assists (420) and 24th in scoring (1,341).

The Memphis player that was trying to guard Mario in this picture was the 1st pick in the draft.. Derrick Rose, who oh by the way is hurt and is not playing on the summer pro league… Thanks Bulls

MIKEcroWADE! It’s time to HEAT things up again in south beach baby!

Alright HEAT fans, as we all know, our HEAT drafted Michael Beasley with the second pick in the draft! Yes, we now have “A new beginning” Here is a little exert from Michael Beasley’s press conference today in Miami.. 

“We will never draft a No. 1 or a No. 2 again because we’re going to win,” Riley said. “There will be no more lottery picks, we hope, in your career, Michael. And I can assure you that we are on the right path with that specific goal.”

That’s right Pat, WE WILL NEVER draft first or second EVER again. We are now halfway done with our “Rebuilding”project. we now have the 3rd scoring option that we were lacking last year… we now have as scoring options (in order):

1. WADE

2. MARION

3. BEASLEY

Yeah HEAT fans I feel it now.. 2009 NBA Playoffs, HERE WE COME! all we need is to keep these 3 guys healthy and HAPPY and we are in it to win it! and then, this day keeps getting better and better, sure we didn’t get Rose, but we got the PG that BEAT him in the Final Four Championship game! we acquired the draft rights to Mario Chalmers! oh yes, he’s a legit PG. he’s not bad at all, he averaged 13 PPG, 4 APg and 3 SPG. and get this, he was 47% from 3-point range! we need this!!! I’m so exited for this new beginning with Miami. I’m going to be one of the first ones to buy a Beasley Jersey and wear it PROUDLY. I have always been a HEAT fan.. through thick and thin, i have always stayed with my team. now, for everyone out there that is like me, all the times this year with the heart-breaking losses, ARE GOING TO PAYOFF! the 15-64 Season, IS GOING TO PAYOFF, Wade being shutdown with 2 months of basketball to go, ITS GOING TO PAYOFF.

Hey guys, we can’t forget one thing, we owe a H-U-G-E thanks to one person and one person only…

SHAQUILLE O’NEAL

Thanks O’Neal, if it wasn’t for you, we would have never gotten Marion nor Banks and be able to put them together with THE FLASH and now MIKE BEASLEY.

MIKEcroWADE! It’s time to HEAT things up again in south beach baby!
