Taking Care of the Ball

Tue, 31 Jan 2012 11:23:45 EST

After the Miami HEAT returned from a five-game road trip two weeks ago with three 20-plus turnover games under their belt, and another, against the Denver Nuggets, where giving their opponent free possessions led to the game getting out of hand in the second half, everyone on the team said they had to take care of the ball better. Nine games later, they are.

4th Quarter Execution vs. Chicago

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 11:15:19 EST

The only concrete thing we learned Sunday afternoon was that Miami is good enough to beat Chicago, and that Chicago is still good enough to beat Miami. But we can also take a look at the way Miami played and make an educated guess at whether it executed well enough to produce the offense that sustains "good enough".



HEAT 97 - Bulls 93 Chat Recap

Sun, 29 Jan 2012 18:25:36 EST

Recap of HEAT.com's live chat, where LeBron James and Chris Bosh combined for 59 points as Miami won despite a crazy finish.



Since Chicago and 1-for-18

Sat, 28 Jan 2012 18:26:46 EST

Bringing up February 24, 2011 isn't a slight against Chris Bosh. In fact, the Bosh of that game bears little resemblance to the Bosh of today, and that's exactly why the date is still relevant. That's exactly why possibly the worst statistical performance of Bosh's career might also be one of the most important.



HEAT 99 - Knicks 89 Recap

Sat, 28 Jan 2012 14:35:08 EST

By the end of the first quarter, the New York Knicks had taken eight threes and made half of them. Inside the arc, they had made just 2-of-14. So, they went with what was working and for awhile it kept them close, but the Miami HEAT earned better looks, and the more sustainable offense finished with the victory.



HEAT 99 - Knicks 89 Chat Recap

Fri, 27 Jan 2012 22:53:14 EST

On Chris Bosh Shooting Threes

Wed, 25 Jan 2012 12:53:27 EST

There's a generation of NBA players that scared everybody. We all watched power forwards begin to drift onto the perimeter and take threes. Sometimes we watched them take threes for almost half of their total field-goal attempts. We all, at one point or another, thought, "You know, maybe he should get in the post." It was frustrating. But it has nothing to do with Chris Bosh.



Cavs 85 - HEAT 92 Chat Recap

The Improved Offense of Joel Anthony

Sun, 22 Jan 2012 13:19:20 EST

Since the season began, there has been a growing sentiment that something was slightly different about Joel Anthony. He was coming to the ball instead of waiting for the pass, he was trying to dunk on people instead of just getting the ball over the rim, and he was shooting before the shot clock forced him to. It's time to talk about why.



76ers 92 - HEAT 113 Chat Recap

Sat, 21 Jan 2012 22:03:37 EST

Recap of HEAT.com's live chat, where Miami's length bothered Philadelphia on the interior, Joel Anthony has his best statistical game of the season and LeBron James closed things out in the fourth quarter.



Making Kobe Work

Fri, 20 Jan 2012 16:33:55 EST

For a defense capable of consistent execution, a game plan for a scorer like Bryant can never come down to simply deciding whether to give him single or double coverage. That's making things far too easy on the offensive player, reducing each of his touches to one of two possible defensive looks. But if you increase the number of looks thrown at a player, their ability to adapt is dramatically reduced.



HEAT Renews Multi-Year Partnership with KIA Motors America

LeBron James leads the HEAT in scoring, and is second in the NBA to Kobe Bryant.



Playing Together, Playing Efficiently

Wed, 18 Jan 2012 15:31:04 EST

Even if the points come from generally inefficient jumpers, nobody is ever going to complain about an elite scorer getting hot. But too often last season that led to stagnant team offense. Against the San Antonio Spurs, the Miami HEAT played together, and played efficiently, even as LeBron James dominated the third quarter.



Spurs 98 - HEAT 120 Chat Recap

Tue, 17 Jan 2012 22:04:44 EST

TIPOFF Magazine: Joel Anthony's Journey

Tue, 17 Jan 2012 17:33:20 EST

HEAT 104 - Nuggets 117 Recap

Sat, 14 Jan 2012 02:53:55 EST

There has to be one of these games every year. When a few losses pile on top of one another and everything looks far worse than it really is. Miami's flat 117-104 loss to the Denver Nuggets comes two days after consecutive losses to the Golden State Warriors and Los Angeles Clippers, but those games had far more to do with one another than this loss.



HEAT 104 - Nuggets 117 Chat Recap

Sat, 14 Jan 2012 01:22:17 EST

Recap of HEAT.com's live chat of Miami's third consecutive loss on their five-game trip, when the Denver Nuggets played very, very well.



Executing While Losing in LA

Thu, 12 Jan 2012 15:12:17 EST

In the fourth quarter and overtime against the Clippers, when things looked so muddled and the pace of the game was like trying to listen to a Discman without shock protection while biking down a bumpy dirt road, Miami's execution produced the intended coin flips more often than not.

HEAT Asks Fans to "Remember Haiti"

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 17:44:48 EST

MIAMI, January 11th - The Miami HEAT is asking HEAT fans everywhere to "Remember Haiti" as the second anniversary of the January 12th earthquake that devastated the island nation approaches.



Prized Possessions: HEAT-Warriors ATO's

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:56:18 EST

Get past the mental hurdle of losing a 17-point lead in the second half, and this was otherwise an odd loss in the middle of January, one hardly indicative of losing habits. Especially if you consider that the execution, taking the bad turnover possessions out of the analysis, was actually pretty good.



HEAT 106 - Warriors 111 Recap

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:23:15 EST

The mind will find a way to make the events of this game conform to any number of trends, some more logical than others, but few offering much in the way of exactitude. That's the way it works when a team gives up a 17-point lead with two minutes to go in the third quarter. But from a strange game such as this, there are often more facts than truths to be offered.



HEAT 106 - Warriors 111 Chat Recap

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 01:38:53 EST

Recap of HEAT.com's live chat, where the Warriors came back from 17 down in the second half and Miami couldn't hold them off in overtime.

Prized Possessions: Bosh and Chalmers

Fri, 6 Jan 2012 15:56:47 EST

With Dwyane Wade and LeBron James sitting against the Atlanta Hawks, the Miami HEAT needed late-game offense. So, Erik Spoelstra drew up three after-timeout sets in the fourth quarter, each playing off the expectations of the last, to keep Miami close enough for Bosh's overtime-forcing three.



HEAT 116 - Hawks 109 Recap

Fri, 6 Jan 2012 13:03:34 EST

There are bits and pieces of Miami's triple overtime win worth deep analysis, especially considering Erik Spoelstra just about exhausted an early-season playbook's worth of dead-ball sets, but with five guys playing more than 43 minutes, most of what there is to take away and appreciate about tonight's action exists in the abstract.



Anthony, Bosh, James and Wade Selected to 2012 NBA All-Star Ballot

Wed, 4 Jan 2012 18:19:12 EST

Bobcats 90 - HEAT 129 Recap

Mon, 2 Jan 2012 15:06:57 EST

At one point, the Miami HEAT led by 46 points. Of anything that can be said about Miami's 129-90 victory over the Charlotte Bobcats - less than a week after needing a game-winning shot from Dwyane Wade to beat the same team - nothing sums up the night better than that number.



Prized Possession: The Game Winning Oop

Sat, 31 Dec 2011 01:18:07 EST

It is often said that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, and if that's true, then in calling up the game-winning alley-oop in the Miami HEAT's 103-101 victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves, Erik Spoelstra offered up the best compliment any coach could offer to Doc Rivers.



HEAT 96 - Bobcats 95 Recap

Thu, 29 Dec 2011 00:35:22 EST

It's fun, for some, to talk about why a certain player gets the call to take the last shot in a game. You can wax poetic for days musing on the reasons why the ball is in one player's hands and not those of another. With the HEAT, Erik Spoelstra just goes with what makes the most sense.

Tue, 20 Dec 2011 20:39:46 EST

What if we could tell you could have Dwyane Wade, in the post, less than 15 feet away from the basket and possibly with a mismatch, with LeBron James accelerating towards the rim directly past him? Would that be something you'd be interested in?

Thu, 15 Dec 2011 14:02:43 EST

At this time last year, the Miami HEAT were hardly natural at moving without the ball.

On Battier, Defense and Statistics

Wed, 14 Dec 2011 13:14:10 EST

Defense is a tricky thing to analyze. We want think of it in results-based evaluations because results are definitive. You win or you lose. The ball goes in or it doesn't. But defense, for all intents and purposes, is based entirely on probability. That's where Shane Battier comes in.

Instant 2011-12 Schedule Analysis

Tue, 6 Dec 2011 20:01:30 EST

The Miami HEAT's 2011-12 schedule is out and, as is true for every team this season, it's one of the more unique slates you'll ever come across in years of following NBA basketball. At 66 games, it's stuck smack dab in the middle of a typical 82-game season and the 50-contests of 1999, but with every team accounted for, this schedule feels much closer to a full season.

How Bulking Up Helps

Fri, 2 Dec 2011 16:01:57 EST

Every year, in every sport, as training camp draws near, there is the report of the player that spent the offseason in the weight room, adding muscle.

The Perfect Fit: Norris Cole

Thu, 30 Jun 2011 13:04:50 EST

The Miami HEAT acquired a point guard in the 2011 NBA Draft, but in Norris Cole they didn't just get any point guard. They found the player who has experience doing everything a guard needs to do in Erik Spoelstra's system. They found someone who is tough as nails. They found the right fit.

Film Session: Defending Dirk

Thu, 2 Jun 2011 12:13:49 EST

The Miami HEAT know they aren't going to completely stop Dirk Nowitzki and his unguardable jumper, but behind their team defensive principles, they will try. As Game 1 wore on into the second half, that effort, and trust, proved to be more than enough.



Prized Possession: Patience at Play

Wed, 1 Jun 2011 16:35:12 EST

In one key fourth-quarter possession, the Miami HEAT showed why it's not always best to immediately seek to exploit a mismatch, the advantages their big lineups offer and how off-ball movement will be crucial to defeating the zone-principled defense of the Dallas Mavericks.

A Post Game in the Playoffs

Mon, 30 May 2011 15:17:52 EST

Six weeks ago, LeBron James was one of the most efficient post-up players in the NBA despite an in-development arsenal of moves. The playoffs were supposed to be a coming-out-party for James' back-to-the-basket game, so on the eve of the NBA Finals, we ask, has it?

Film Session: Defending the Middle

Mon, 23 May 2011 18:08:34 EST

The Miami HEAT have two Eastern Conference Finals wins under their belt, for which they can largely thank holding the Chicago Bulls to 42.9 percent shooting within nine feet of the rim. That number likely won't sustain all series, but the defensive principles, all Miami can control, surely can.



Film Session: Bosh in Motion
