If the Heat want to really be a great team, games like tonight don't happen. Especially against a depleted team. I don't care how well they're coached.

The question is, seeing that he was pretty bad in the last 2-3 minutes... can he get it out of his head? To his credit, this year, he's been nails late in games in ways that he hasn't usually. But I would say that this is about as much pressure as he's going to face all year, given the expectations of him going into game 2. |

I was called an idiot for suggesting that Robinson could help the Thunder.

If they use it as motivation and bounce back to win in 5 or 6, people will say it was good for character. Nobody will remember about a minor bump in the road. All depends how they react to this.

Bulls!! What an incredible gutsy performance tonight. I've always been a big Nate Robinson fan. Glad he's tearing it up for us. Got to get Thibs a ring. He's the best coach hands down.

You can go ahead and look at the game logs from last year. I've posted them a trillion times. LeBron was outstanding in the playoffs last year. He was NOT good in the final 3 minutes of games when the game was close. Like I said, I've seen more resiliency from him and a "I don't give a ****" attitude from him this year than I've ever really seen from him in his career. But he still does not look like the close game playoff "killers" you'd expect from one of the greatest players of all time.

The Heat are well past the character building stage. They could, and probably should win this thing in 5. Still, tonight was a lack of killer instinct, just asleep at the wheel. The really great teams don't need motivation by losing to Nate Robinson to get in gear.

This loss means nothing for Miami if they win the series. Doesn't matter if you win in 4,5 or 7. Thibs is a fantastic coach that knows how to give them problems. For some reason he seems to give them more problems without Rose.
Also, LeBron doesn't have to be a closer when his team is often crushing his opponent, and dominates in every way. If he keeps winning rings it doesn't matter how. Now if they lose a series with a healthy roster feel free to crucify. I'm not falling for the sky is falling shit. The Heat will be fine. |

People can say rust, I agree. But the Bulls have been playing with like 8 players. If only the Bulls could be fully healthy for a stretch in the playoffs, it would be fun to see.
