Half of our losses are against the Heat

[Skins11]

Currently we are 12-8. And we lost 4 to the Heat. How ridiculous is that. Just thought I'd mention it... and why not, I'm the only person browsing this forum right now

The officiating was ridiculous. Does biased reffing follow Shaq around the league??

Oh and also, Larry Hughes has to stop paying such close attention to his stats *cough* steals *cough*. He leaves his man waaay too open. It works well against the bad teams (Bulls), but works badly against the good teams.

Thank God we don't have to play them anymore...maybe we can get better in case we meet them in the playoffs

1/2 of our losses are to Miami. That is correct.

8% (1/12th) of our wins have come against a team with a winning record.

We have made the first step (Beating the teams we are supposed to)

Now we need to take that next step and start winning against teams that we are not necessarily supposed to beat.

I see playoffs with a first round loss this year. If we keep the core together then next year we could make some noise.

You are very correct...we are beating the teams we should beat (finally) and when we take the next step of beating teams that are tough then we will be a threat....I still don't think we get very much respect around the league....just look at the calls we get/don't get against Miami....

Yeah...shaq gets a lot of calls....watching Kwame guard him was crazy....shaq would run over Kwame and they would call kwame for the foul even though he was just holding his ground....

I remember once Shaq elbowed Kwame in the mouth and the foul got called on Kwame...or when Jamison came up needing 8 stiches and no foul called....the refs have some explaining to do!!

We can make the second round. If we stay healthy, our best shot is the 6th slot going against the 3 rd seed ( winner of the Eastern Div )

Well have to wait and see but Im not counting us out of the 1st round yet. Depends on who we play.
