[The Heat] will not play its 2010-11 home opener until Friday Oct. 29 at AmericanAirlines Arena -- three days after it opens [the NBA] season Tuesday Oct. 26 at TD Garden against the Boston Celtics.

The first South Florida exposure during the regular season for the roster that Pat Riley overhauled last month will come on Oct. 29, against the Orlando Magic.

Instead, after the Heat opens the regular season where it ended the 2010 NBA playoffs, in Boston against the Celtics, the preliminary schedule obtained by the Sun Sentinel shows the Heat next playing a road game on Wednesday Oct. 27 against the Philadelphia 76ers.

Only then, after taking Thursday Oct. 28 off, will the Heat host its 2010-11 regular-season home opener against former Heat coach Stan Van Gundy, All-Star center Dwight Howard(notes) and the Orlando Magic. [...]

[The] Sun Sentinel has learned that the Heat will also play Christmas Day at Staples Center against the Los Angeles Lakers, one of two games this coming season against the two-time defending NBA champions.

Perkins is out majority (if not all) of the season

[Mexi]

wow poor Perk

didnt think the injury was that major

 

[The Young One]

Not really news..but props to Melo.

 

[Pugz]

its donte though, lol.

 

[Mexi]

speaking of the Nuggets, JR and Al Harringon is going to be so funny to watch when they are off their games at the same time

man, they are going to frustrate the hell out of Nugget fans, but they'll also win some games solely because of one or both of them

Pistons first preseason game is against the Heat. Yay. :headsmack:

 

[dez]

Still thats 74 against a fellow NBA player.

<Censored> 74 against regular rec dudes is hard.

Mr. Shaq will be wearing the #36 in the green and white.

 

[Mexi]

^number of total games as a Celtic?

 

[The Young One]

The guys on Lakersground sounded hurt he went to Boston.

 

[Mexi]

who cares what if he went there
one thing that they may play the C's in the Finals, but they're crying about him being a laker great and going to the celtics right?
stupid

i told you, laker fans are stupid
they overdo the whole lakers/celtics thing

last year the pregame show for laker games was outside
fans were always outside chanting stuff
mostly "clveland sucks" and "boston sucks"

they would chant that in like January when the Celtics were completely irrelevant. i was always like, "wtf, shut up. who cares about the celtics"

just bugs me. one of my biggest pet peeves is laker fans crying about celtics
i hate them too, but geez, overkill sometimes

 

[The Young One]

They just say some bizarre stuff. They were talking about the lakers shouldnt retire his jersey now.
