Fuck Detroit! What a game though! Detroit players don't miss! They were hitting outside shots like they were going out of style!

Oh, Did anyone see Shaq get stuffed by the rim? WTF?

Yeah but at the same time you had Ben Wallace putting all his weight on his arm to pull him down...

ok... here are my thoughts on the issue... first off, although I am disapointed in the loss. the heat went the furthest we have in franchise history so congrats to that... congrats to the pistons also. you guys won the east two yrs in a row.. thats big! I think they will have some trouble with the spurs though.. now on to last nights game, the series in general, the loss and vangundy's moves last night...uggh!

We should have won that game without question. Without injuries we would have taken that series in 5 maybe 6 as the heat were clearly the better team. The officiating last night was horrible as it was the entire series. This is the playoffs! let the guys play basketball for godsake. anyways big props to wade for playing through his injury and to shaq for doing all that could be imagined of the big fella last night...

plain and simple we lost last night because of awfull coaching. We can all play monday morning coach but come on vangundy. Lets start with the obvious. Wade was hurt. van gundy made no substitutions till 2 minutes left in the first quarter. wade should have played in 4 - 5 minute incriments leaving him with energy for the 4th quarter. Keyon dooling should have played more. I don't know what game you were watching danny but there was a point where the boy took over. he distributed the ball well, shot the ball well and played defense unlike damon jones. Damon got hurt in the first and never got back in rhythm. he didn't make a single shot and can't play good D on two legs let alone on one. Now someone tell me why the guy with no points and one leg still played the starters minutes instead of the guy producing, distributing the ball, and PLAYING D? second question, why on earth in a game of this magnatude with neither shaq nor zo in serious foul trouble did zo only play 10 minutes? why was he not in there alongside of shaq in the crucual moments? udonis played a great game but is to small when rasheed posted up on him... that would not have been the case if zo got more minutes or even laetner for that matter who his much taller then udonis. would have totally changed the rhythm of the game in the paint and limited rasheed and mcdyess by putting bigger bodies on them.

here is the final and most crucial question. shaq played great last night. shaq played with energy and was leading the team to victory in the 4th quarter. when the ball went down low to him they had no answer. we were leading with 5 minutes to play now its obvious to me that the offense should have run through the big man on every possesion with us up by 7 near games end. through the ball to the big guy he draws the double then he either breaks through it or throughs it out to the open guy... commen sense tells you what should have been done yet the heat never got the ball to the main guy down the stretch giving us our best chance to keep the lead wade played so hard to give us. I don't blame the players I blame vangundy for horrible player substitution and horrible play calling down the stretch on top of bad officiating. I disagree with the comments that we would have had a hard time with the spurs. we match up well against them and would have given them a much better fight then the pistons injured or not... i think san antonio in 5 or 6 tops but i guess we'll see.... bottom line - we had the chance to win the east, we should have won the east, boo on vangundy for last night but I guess there's next year! will be interesting to see who comes back and who else we pick up... GO HEAT
