I really wish we could have got this one. Our next 4 games we've got the Spurs twice, Rockets and Thunder, I'm predicting we go 1-3. Games like this may come back to haunt us at the end of the year when we're fighting for seeding.

Spurs really aint **** tho. Neither are the Rockets.
 
And Locke pointed this out: Mitchell's moves typically are done to avoid contact and sneak around defenders horizontally instead of vertically vs Wade who really forces contact by jumping into people. Mitchell really needs to learn to draw fouls to take the leap into super-star territory. That dichotomy was shown on the last two layups by Mitchell and Wade.

He needs to draw contact better but I think the key difference between current Mitchell vs potential Wade-esque Mitchell is their ability to playmake for others. Heat ran a lot of PG-less lineups as well tonight and Wade ended up with 8 assists and had a nice two man game going with Whiteside, Mitchell needs to watch some Wade tape instead of Kobe's Detail videos that encourage him to chuck long 2s.
 
Havent read the thread but I hope someone is holding DM accountable for his defense on that last play...

How does a 64yr old D.Wade just find him self in the teeth of the paint like that?? ****ing garbage!

yes he is a pretty bad defender and an irresponsible chucker.
 
About Exum... He does not have that killer instinct, not yet anyway. He still looks like a deer in the headlights to me. He needs to be aggressive and have that “take over the game” mentality that DM clearly possesses. And maybe he’s just not that talented, but at least let us find out - once and for all. I blame Snyder to some extent. Man, when Exum goes to the rim he is explosive. Seriously. He could be great if he had some Kobe confidence. It’s a frustrating situation.
