    This is what we call a bad win

    Because Dame is the better defender?

    I only saw the 4th quarter, but our defense and rebounding looked really solid. Lots of possessions by Miami that resulted in a tough, contested shot and we swarmed the boards pretty consistently.

    Well, we haven't won yet but if we do, it looks like our best win of the year. 92 points is the lowest we've held an opponent to all season.

    The emergence of Harkless is so huge for this team. Also Turner and Crabbe pulling their heads out of their asses helps a lot.

    Dame is one of the top 3 leaders in the league. Lebron, Dame, CP3 in that order.

    That's got to be worth something.

    Solid end to the game, but they really have to work on starting the games better, and starting the 2nd halves better.

    It's a 48 minute game.

    Yep. We are much better than last year and people will see that in the standings very soon.

    I agree. I love Dame. But as a player, CJ is just as good if not better.
