Sixers - Heat

40s at the half.  Not a particularly exciting game.

Boring is right.

Hate watching Sam play.  Wish he was gone.  At least not much Reggie.

Sam getting thoroughly owned by J.O.  

Gotta hand it to Miller... the guy is pretty fearless.  Going at the rim every time the defense gives it to him... you wouldn't think he's nursing a calf strain.  

If J.O. can continue to give Miami that presence they're going to be a tougher team to battle with down the stretch for playoff seeding.  Fortunately for us, that's a big if.

Andre Miller is a warrior.

That was a big loss.  Gives miami the tie breaker and a little more distance between us and them.  All of a sudden we're back at .500. 

Nice performance by Miller nonetheless...

Ed needs to get some shooters on this team, pronto.  Especially with both Brand and Smith out, we have one big man with any ability to score (Speights), we need people who can hit from outside.

Bad loss.  That was the difference between continuing our decent play of late...or a three game losing streak. 

HATED the Tony decision to look for a quick shot with 24 seconds (or whatever) left.  On the road...vs. Wade...just run the thing down, have a perfect play called and steal the win at the buzzer (with a shot at :04).  His approach lacked confidence; he tried not to lose rather to go win the damn thing.

Speights needs more minutes... especially with Brand on the shelf.  He gets the majority of his playing time down the stretch, usually because he's playing too well to take him out.  He needs to get off the bench earlier and more often in the 1st half.
