It's not on Bron. It's not on Wade. It's not on the Bosh injury. It's on...

Not 0, Not 0, Not 0, Not 0..........

The reason Philly played well vs. Boston was due to their defensive strategy..they played man-to-man and forced Boston to beat them 1 on 1..

Miami's swarming strategy is re ed..they're constantly overplaying and doubling at the top, they're allowing a team that moves the ball well to play to their strengths, as opposed to forcing them to play 1 on 1, which they can no longer do..

Ray Allen himself said that the Celtics are moving the ball faster than Miami can run around..

Everybody seems to notice this flaw, except for the coach..

[HarlemHeat37]

Spoelstra is getting killed on ESPN and NBA TV..

[baseline bum]

Even if they win the le they should still fire him.

[dbreiden83080]

For everyone blaming the coach what you don't think Riley is telling him what all the fanboys are saying and more about adjustments??

This roster is not good enough... Lebron and Wade and with a hurt Bosh


The rest of this roster is complete and total ... They have ZERO depth..

[ducks]

wonder what jerry sloan with heat would be like

[Spurs da champs]

One thing is for sure Wade has choked just as much as LeBron in these PO's weather its missing clutch free throws or taking ty final shots.

Coaching change or not, Heat need a legit center.

[Killakobe81]

praying Lebron and Wade hero ball works on every play

finally using Lebron/Wade pick and roll for the first time in the series, watching it provide efficient offense, yet going away from it..

not playing Bosh in the most important stretch of the 4th quarter, despite seeing him nearly drop a double-double in limited minutes, while Miami got killed on the boards, which ultimately cost them the game..

running Lebron into the ground every game and rarely giving him a rest..

never giving up on Battier..

getting severely outcoached by a Black coach..

terrible motivational talks and speeches..

This. His pressers suck too ...

Can't be any worse than Pop's "this is a big boy's game."

[Koolaid_Man]

Of course the moron media and Lebron and/or Wade haters will spin it anyway they can to blame Miami's superstars, but the real reason Miami has gotten outplayed by Boston in 4 of the 5 games is because the former video coordinator, Erik Spoelstra, has an offensive system Mike Brown would laugh at. The only plays Fili knows how to call are ISO sets for Wade or Lebron.

And yeah, I'm pissed. If the Spurs weren't winning it all, I at least wanted a Lebron vs. Durant, Westbrook vs. Wade, Finals matchup.

Lol @ Riley putting a video coordinator in charge of a potential dynasty.

that's my boy...concede defeat...that's the way uh huh uh huh I like it!!!!

Sam Presti started out as a video coordinator, I'm juss sayin

[flipspursfan]

Dammit and most Filipinos are rooting for MIA cause of his descent. Stupid reason for any support, I don't think descent should be a reason for pride. Back on topic, he doesn't know how to coach.

Wade has been acting like a straight up this whole series. Lost a lot of respect for him.

He really is a crybaby and overated IMO.. The Skip Bayless's and SAS of the world act like he is this legendary clutch performer. Wade was great in the 2006 finals.. 2006..... What has he really done since then? He was on Heat teams that missed the playoffs while battling injures as they rebuilt.. Wade isn't the player the media has built him up to be..

[cheguevara]

It was lebron and wade's and bosh's plan to join up in miami and win championships. they did not care if a monkey coached them to it.

they conceived that idea after sharing a couple of ladyboys in china.

and you wanna blame the monkey?

The problem is being so top-heavy and having a bench and rotation that sucks beyond the Big Three. They are less equipped than other contenders to survive an injury to a star player. Bosh is being paid near the max to take a role as a #3 guy. It would make more sense to pay a third wheel a third-wheel salary instead of paying an All Star near max money to play a supporting role. Different sport, but reminds me of when the Rangers paid A-Rod $25 mil a year when they could have had three good players for that money.

They'd be better off having two superstars and a heavy rotation of good role players than three star players and a huge bag of for a rotation. I'd trade Wade for a decent starting center and a couple of role players, then fire Spo and bring in a real coach.

being a GM =/= being a coach

Sam Presti doesn't need to have the ability to inspire players/earn their respect.

[LiamNeeson'shero]

d wade to denver for George Karl. I mean the heat played best when they played the up tempo style, but they stopped towards the end of the season/playoffs. Karl coaches up tempo. Problem solved

[OZWIN]

Yeah he is a terrible coach...all that talent going to waste.

[shyne]

I lost respect for wade when he dislocated his shoulder, and needed a wheelchair to get to the back. That was some major pussy drama, will never forget that.

True stuff, but this far into the playoffs, almost no one survives an injury to a star player.

His opponent was far worse tbh. That Paul Pierce was pathetic.

classic Spurfan acting as if he has any idea how painful it is walking with a completely dislocated shoulder.

How about Frank Vogel? He also started out as a video coordinator. Point is if Spoelstra sucks as a coach, you can't necessarily say it was because he started out as a video coordinator. Maybe the guy just sucks because he sucks lol.
