The Riley Countdown


So how much longer will it be until Pat Riley takes over as the head coach of the Heat?  The Heat have been extremely disappointing so far.  They lost to the Celtics again and this time is was in their own building.  They are now 5-4 and do not look like the juggernaut many thought they would be.  So much for 70 wins and multiple titles.  They look more like a team competing for the 8th seed. 



They look great against a crap team like the Nets, but when they play good teams like the Celtics, Jazz, and Hornets, they have not won.  I will go easy on LeBron and Wade despite the fact they look lost on the court while playing together.   I am sure both guys will eventually figure it out and just need more time to get used to playing with one another.  I will kill Chris Bosh.  The guy is making 100 million dollars and is averaging 15 points and 6 rebounds.  How does a guy almost 7 feet tall only grab 6 rebounds a game?   He is also the softest player in the league.  Take a look at Rondo dunk on him as he basically stared at him instead of stepping up to try and stop him.



You now have LeBron questioning the amount of minutes himself and Wade are playing.  "For myself, 44 minutes is too much," James declared. "I think Coach Spo knows that. Forty minutes for D-Wade is too much. We have to have as much energy as we can to finish games out."  These guys are both young and get paid over 100 million dollars and he is complaining about playing too many minutes.  Go cry about it.  Who else is supposed to play on that team?  They have no team outside of LeBron and Wade.  Can you imagine Michael Jordan complaining about playing too many minutes.  Oh that is right, we learned that LeBron is no Jordan.
