Anyone think coaching is a big part of the heats failures?

 

[jonathanlambert33]

Nah, Spoelstra is a good coach.

 

[.infamous]

Why hasn't Rip been posting "LeBron ain't clutch" recently? It actually would work here for every single game so far..

 

[cruzg24]

I like Tim Leglers explanation for Lebron not playing well in the clutch. He said that he is overthinking things and his shot motion has changed late in games. He also said that he doesnt have confidence in his shot right now and he has to regain that confidence.

 

[elcheato]

Luckily for the Heat they really don't need him.. Wade can carry the team, but he needs to be healthy.

 

[cruzg24]

Dirk should make a video of himself walking awkwardly while holding his hip, lol that would be awesome. But he wont do that cuz thats just really stupid to do. Make Wade mad and want to play harder.

 

[elcheato]

Jason Terry trash talking didn't seem to hurt the Mavs lol, but yea I wouldn't do it.

I'm interested in seeing Dan Gilbert's tweet if the Heat lose. Wonder what it will say.

 

[cruzg24]

I think Dan Gilbert should move on and focus on the #1 and #4 draft picks. I guess he could enjoy the Heat loss for a little while. But I think its time for him to move on after these finals, no matter the outcome.

 

[elcheato]

It's not like he's the scouting department or the GM. He doesn't make moves for the team lol and you know he'll say something. Him and Marc Cuban are friends, he'll probably invite him and the entire Mavs team to have their championship parade in Cleveland.

 

[cruzg24]

I think it would be a good time to keep his mouth shut and be above all the stupid little bickering and snide remarks. That says more about Gilbert if he doesnt say anything than if he makes a dumb comment.

 

[elcheato]

It's just who he is lol, he won't stay quiet.

LeBron isn't even playing badly. When you get a triple double you're doing something right. He's still playing very intelligently and is setting up his teammates nicely. The only problem in his game right now is his passiveness. You see him back off on drives into the paint on which he usually goes all the way to the hoop. So many times you see him standing like 7 feet away from the three point line whe Wade has the ball.
On one side it's LeBron's lack of aggressivness that's responsible for the Heat's failure, on the other it's just bad coaching. When you have arguably the two best wings in the game on your team, one guy just can't stand around the doing nothing. When LeBron isn't shooting well he isn't even spreading the floor for Wade. I'd rather have Miller standing there doing nothing. Bron needs to cut more often.

 

[elcheato]

Like many of us stated later last night, that was as empty as a triple double you can have..

And coaching is not what has LeBron standing around when he doesn't have the ball.. That's how he plays, he doesn't move off ball because he doesn't want to. Always has.

 

[buzzy]

Well then it's the coach's job to make him run a play, no?

At least make them run a P&R between the two.

If you are one of the greatest players in the league, and are constantly being compared to Michael Jordan... You have to take over the game yourself. No excuses.
