Good win? Bad win? Who knows anymore. They played well tonight.
Spo with the zone move vs a bad O was brilliant
They miss VanVleet.
No doubt. Adams is the biggest loss, singlehandedly took their offense from elite w him to average now
Adams needed more for his rebounding and interior defense. He is considered one of the toughest and strongest players in the NBA. He would eat Jokic, Embiid and Gobert for lunch.
NOT JOKICS BROTHER
i miss vanhalen
Me too…and Van Zant, Van Heflin, Van Morrison and Van Dyke.
What about the van that’s rockin so you shouldn’t come a knockin.
With a bumper sticker that said…
“In training for the midnight Olympics.”
dick or jerry?
The whole Dyke family.
Van de Kamp, Van Nuys
Van Derbilt.
funny didnt see dru in second half .thought his defense really helped us in first half oh well we won
66 In the paint for MIA vs 50 for HOU. Bam a team high +16 and Ware +15!
Of course they win a game against a better team when it is only televised on Prime. What a bunch of crap. Like what Miami received in the Rozier trade. I paid for NBA Team Pass and got screwed instead.
adam wants your $$
finally alot of bam ware a real lot thats good coaching by hfl
2015 saw that we had a shot against these guys, used his advanced stats. Those stats don’t always tell the story, actually there is only one that I find deceptive and that is inferring how someone is playing by the teams plus/minus. But, sometimes the stats do give insights, sometimes they explain things.
Okay, I believe it now. Solid win!!
Tired them out, got a little lucky with Hou being on 3rd game of road trip but what a win
sheppard misssed every shot second half.thompsons the new westbrook cant shoot a lick.rockets tier 2 team no shot to win it all
Wiggins has to one of the most likable players in the league.
Total professional. I think he’s a cornerstone piece of a championship team, the third or more likely the fourth best player on a really good team.
bam ware big difference to me
well done lots bam ware pelle tough sob wiggy does everything
Looks like a pretty impressive win! Give the team credit!
6 pt swing there! Wiggins so tough
wiggy yes yes
rcrchoops.com
I have trademark that.
Hangin in there. Never know, we might just take this one.
pelle ice in veins
Sengun awful pnr defense,this Hou defense is porous
lots bam ware today hard and soft
i luv ware but he needs to grow a pair
He would be on my untouchable list
elliot nest list yes
Ness
Ness.
Simultaneously!
He doesn’t have his “man balls” yet.
I hate to be pessimistic, but this season, in a game like this, I always feel like they might find a way to lose.
no go to guy u have a legit reason
kd not getting much help oh did pat f up not getting him
flagrant on shengun fk him
Sengun getting blown by on defense
bam ware wiggy jjj dru my5.
Let’s see. You wanted to get rid of Jaquez last season. You wanted to get rid of Wiggins this season. You recently said Dru is unplayable or not an NBA player. You said Ware is too soft. And you have for years knocked Bam for the money he’s getting. Got it.
Forgive me hfl, but that was a very solid reply.
Lol! Gotta keep him on his toes.
your my bro from miami beach ,hfl under an rc attack i surrender.this is rcs site,i shall retreat
He’s the man, so much more perspective and much better emotional control than us.
hes more of a heat lover than anybody i cheer for him more than myself.im more of a sports fan for our local teams
Never
jjj great wiggys great dru all d bam worth every penny ware is soft 20% poster
hope herro aint heater next year
ty d lol
fonzi over gard dont get it
i like ware but he is one big pussy
drus d matters
dru great d great challenge
bam ware jjj wiggy all 2 wayers,
lots bam ware
a herro less and powell less team might not be that bad as long as jjjj getting lots mins.defense will def be better and ball moves better.two one on one players
heat play better w/o herro rc.defense so much better other guys can score namely jjj
Whatever
fonzi over gard is dum
durant still in his prime wow
ware needs 35 mins
kd cant fight ty
russian lady decked out today

Let’s go Heat!
u c game?
On Prime. Watching. Reid-less.
doesnt feel like a heat game w/o e reid
durant 2 blocks on wiggy hes rather long wiggy not so much
Wiggins actually is quite long, just not as much as KD, who has some of the longest arms in the league. Plus, 4 inches taller.
i thought kd wanted to play for pat surprised hes not a heater
hou 11 pelle 4
did not know spo played college ball at u of portland
ty starting.jabari smith out that helps
