  Gotta love the Heat celebrating like that over a dunk when they're down 9.

Only the second game I watched all season that wasn't a Celtics game.  I vowed not to watch anyone but the Celtics anymore because of how bad the NBA is now. I started watching when I saw that the Heat were losing. ;D

Did you see Wade in the 4th quarter lose it and get a tech after getting his shot blocked? :D

Perk was replaceable. He is not a "defensive monster". Anyone can look good playing alongside KG

Yup, reminds me of Javale McGee celebrating after getting his first career triple double the other day even though his team was losing big.

. . . or Serge Ibaka. ;)

Sick dunk by Wade.  There isn't a player in the league who hasn't been posterized before, though.

Unfair to criticize Perk's defense. He is a very good defender. Dude is still recovering from knee surgery and sprain in other knee.  KG often looked bad last year on D, why? Because he was not fully healed and conditioned.  I favored the Perk trade from the get go, but give our Perk some slack. He will be awesome for the OKC especially next year, when they dethrone the Lakers in the West. Still a year away.

I like how Wade waited until he was at half court to celebrate.  You Perk would have none of that celebrating if he did it within arms reach.

Not to mention the two other guys that let Wade shoot between them.

I like that youtube video because it is such a great reminder that NBA highlight reels do not earn you a championship...

I'll happily have our guys be posterized all night long on their way to banner #18.  That's all I care about.

Interesting caption of this dunk on Yahoo sports:

"Dwyane Wade spins inside and throws down a monster two-handed slam over Serge Ibaka"

I wonder if Perk slipped someone a C-note to keep his name out of it :)
