Sometimes, I Like Mark Cuban

Dwyane Wade first said this: ``Dirk says they gave us the championship last year, but he's the reason they lost the championship, because he wasn't the leader that he's supposed to be in the closing moments. That's because of great defense by us, but also he wasn't assertive enough as a leader's supposed to be.'' Here....from Blog Maverick.com, Mavs...

What makes Mario matter?

Dwyane Wade noticed it right away. "He had two games where he had some tough matchups with Nash and Arenas, and he struggled a little bit," Wade said. "But to come in against one of the best, in Billups, really...

Miami Makes Season Saving Comeback

This was how the game turned completely upside down: Shaq hit two huge free throws. While Dwayne Wade and Dirk Nowitzki each missed a key one. The Dirk miss was the biggest....sending a game that would've been tied into a game that the Mavs trailed by a point with a second remaining. After Wade hit one of two FTs.....the Mavs inbound play to try to tie the game went for naught...

Richardson follows the bouncing ball

Somehow, you wouldn't think that starting a 6-foot-6 small forward would provide the answer to rebounding questions. Yet Quentin Richardson has proven to be just that. Despite going undersized at the small forward, the Heat ranks eighth of the 30...

Miami Heat 96, Denver Nuggets 88

The Miami Heat took it to the Nuggets last night as they led this game 78-56 after the first three quarters. The Heat also outrebounded the Nuggets 41-34 last night which was a big reason for the win. Dwyane Wade led the way for the Heat with 22 points, 2 rebounds, 5 assists [...]

NBA FINALS: Game 1......Mavericks Dump Heat

DALLAS 90-MIAMI 80 If you are a Heat fan....there is quite a cause for concern after Game 1's loss. -Dirk Nowizki scored just 16 points in this game [shooting 4-of-14]. -Miami shot an NBA record-worst 7-19 from the "charity" stripe. Ugh. Shaq was 1-9 [and he missed two other FTs that were overturned by lane violations]. Wade was 6-10. They were the only two players...

Richardson stands tall when it comes to hitting the boards

Instead of rebounding being a concern with the Heat's undersized lineup, it has turned into a strength, thanks, in part, to the unexpected contribution of small forward Quentin Richardson.

Exclusive Interview with Jermaine O’Neal

About five hours before the Miami Heat defeated the Washington Wizards, I decided that I wanted to interview Heat center, Jermaine O'Neal. Not only had my editor informed me that he was a great talker, but he had some intangibles that led me to believe he would give me an interview of substance. He's been in the league for 14 seasons, he's played in All Star games,...

Q Rating: Richardson fitting in nicely with Heat

By TIM REYNOLDS AP Sports Writer MIAMI — When scouting the Miami Heat, Denver coach George Karl noticed one glaring difference from last season. “Scary,” he said. Quentin Richardson will take that as a compliment...Read the full article on Bleacher Report...

State Of The Onion

The Miami Heat beat the Los Angeles Lakers for the 2nd straight Christmas....sending Kobe Bryant back once again without a win over his greatest personal rival, Shaquille O'Neal. This time, Miami won 97-92. For the 2nd straight Christmas...it was a very good game. To me, the hype was too much....as aside from the tip-off [where Shaq didn't even look Kobe's way] the...

Miami Heat bench strong, reliable

Heat forward Udonis Haslem, a starter for the previous six years, didn't like the idea of coming off the bench when the strategy was introduced at the beginning of the season.

Jermaine O'Neal Is Miami's X-Factor

The Miami Heat are 5-1 for the first time since the 2004-05 season. Many are crediting Wade and his stellar performance in the past 6 games. I on the other hand, credit Jermaine O’Neal...Read the full article on Bleacher Report...
