So Lebron took it upon himself to make an ass out of me last
night; fair enough. I’m completely ok with that. Can you guess why? It resulted
in a victory, however as Steven A likes to say: any statement made that is
followed by the word ‘but’, negates everything said before the word ‘but’ was
used. So the Heat came out with the victory and Lebron only scored 17 points, ‘but’
this game was a complete anomaly. If Miller, Chalmers, and Ray Ray played like
that every game they would be the Big 3. Unfortunately they don’t. Sure Lebron
put up numbers that haven’t been seen in 25 years, and good on him. I hate to
beat a dead horse but stats don’t win championships (occasionally they win
games). If you expect the Heat to win game 3 with Lebron scoring 4 points in
the first half, then you are mistaken. If you expect San Antonio’s Big 3 to
shoot 10 for 33 again, you are sadly mistaken. Don’t get me wrong, I love what
the Heat were able to do last night and I give mad props to Spolstra for the
adjustments he made; the high screen and roll with Bron and Chalmers, as well
as having Miller and Ray Ray on the court at the same time. That being said,
Pop without a doubt will have a new game plan which will rebut the open shots
the Heat’s shooters got last game. If you noticed Duncan didn’t even play in
the 4th quarter. So before we hand out rings to the Heat let’s slow
down and keep things in perspective. If Bosch and D Wade don’t put their
fingerprints on the next 3 games in San Antonio, I wouldn’t place too much
investment in Chalmers, Allen, and Miller re-producing their performance in
game 2 and carrying the Heat to another victory. Oh and if you didn’t think
Bron’s block on Splitter wasn’t one of the greatest blocks of all time then something
wrong with you.
