What is wrong with Wade? For the second game in a row, he is struggling. At the beginning of the 4th period, he is 0 for 7. Is he under too much pressure now that people are noticing him.
He's just playing terrible and making VERY poor shot selections, that's pretty much it. He went on a short hot streak for about a week and now it's back to this extremely horrible play. Dwyane needs to focus on taking better shots and becoming more consistent. Being named player of the week was probably the absolute worst thing to happen to Dwyane thus far, aside from injuries of course. I don't know it's a similar case of Sports Illustrated bad luck or what, but he needs to get back in gear. This game was definitely Dwyane's low point of the season... 0-7 from the field with 5 turnovers, on top of his 10 turnovers yesterday in New Jersey... horrible, ugh. I listened to the post game press conference from Stan Van Gundy on the radio and he was absolutely irate. He said the big run we made to come back was worthless and he demanded that the press not write anything positive about this game in tomorrows papers and on the websites . Everyone always talks about how Eddie Jones isn't productive, he needs to be traded, etc. Well he is the heart and soul of this team, he just doesn't get the credit he deserves. Night in and night out he almost always carries this team, Dwyane carries us sometimes, Lamar other times, but you can always count on EJ for a consistent performance with a very rare bad performance every once in a while. We're now on a 3 game losing streak and are half a game back from 7th place behind the Raptors and the Cavs and Celtics are both only half a game behind us in tied in 9th place. We need to really take advantage of a Carter-less Raptors this Tuesday night and get back in this thing so we don't turn into a Philly. Box score: http://www.nba.com/games/20040229/MIAMIL/boxscore.html Here's the official recap.... <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">MILWAUKEE ? Michael Redd scored 27 points, and Desmond Mason added 21, helping the Milwaukee Bucks beat the Miami Heat 108-104 Sunday for their third victory in a row. Miami rookie Dwyane Wade left the game with a sprained right foot with about four minutes left in the third quarter. He went to the locker room early in the fourth quarter and didn't return. Eddie Jones led Miami with 25 points on 10-of-18 shooting and added five rebounds. Lamar Odom had 22 points and seven rebounds. But the Heat allowed the most points they have all season and lost their third straight game.</div> More here.
Great comeback guys, fought hard, hope Wades ok and he doesn't have to miss 2-3 weeks like TJ, see you on Thursday at your place
Please Wade be alright, he had a sick streak going though, 50% in 21 of his last 24 games since the beginning of December till the game against Portland, man the Blazers played ome good D that game. But now he's had three game slide, but I think he'll get it back together soon. I like that he know's his strengths and takes advantage of them instead of jacking up three's like some other players (Baron are you listening). Anyways I hope its not anything serious for him and he's back next game, actually wait they're playing Toronto next, how bout you take some time off Wade lol.

The Celtics just defeated the Magic tonight, that means they are now TIED with the Heat for 8th place. This is not good, not good at all. The good news is that after the Celtics play the Wizards this Friday, they have an absolutely brutal schedule against the T-Wolves, Knicks, Pacers, Denver, Dallas, Spurs, Sixers, and Portland. So they most likely will not be in 8th for long .
