With all this talk about LeBron, we are forgetting something....
Are people going to give his supporting cast any credit??
Bosh: 18/9
Wade: 19/3/2
Ray Allen: 16/3/3
Rashard: 10 points

Thats a damn good supporting cast :applause:
Re: With all this talk about LeBron, we are forgetting something....
They folded when Lebron went out. Meh.
Just a Game 1. Wade should have chucked instead of letting Chalmers and Bosh run pick and roll.
Re: With all this talk about LeBron, we are forgetting something....
This is my biggest problem with people putting an asterisk on this game. Lebron deserves a pass, the team doesn't.
Miami very well could've won this game without Lebron. Wade and Bosh were balling, they whole team just collapsed mentally. San Antonio makes a few 3's and starts moving the ball around, and Miami just lose it. That's not on Lebron's injury, that's on THEM. You can still play tenacious defense with Lebron, you can still go to Wade and Bosh for offense. San Antonio took out OKC without Tony Parker for an entire 2nd half. Miami loses Lebron for 7 minutes and a lead turns into a 15 point loss?

The whole team morale went to shit with those Danny Green 3s and Lebron's cramps
Re: With all this talk about LeBron, we are forgetting something....
Bosh was horrible offensively and Wade let Cole and Rio control the ball. IMO, if Bosh stepped up defensively and Wade was as aggressive as he was in the first half, Miami would've won. Wade scored 2 points in the 2nd half, BTW.

Seems good now how about their late-game defense?

Chalmers was the let-down.

What happened when Lebron was out in the 4th?

I've been saying this since forever. Dude is a scrub. He shouldn't start over Cole. Even though Cole is offensively inept, he's a MUCH better defender than Rio.

Cole really should have started this game to give the Heat an edge on defense, Wade and Bosh should have handled the ball down the stretch, not Rio.

Rio was horrible tonight.
Can't defend or handle the ball anymore.
