.::Wade Showing His Skills as he Was The Only Player to Score 20+::.

.::Player of the Game::.



Shaquille O' Neal- 16pts, 11reb, 1ast, 8nlks, 0stls, 7TO, 8/16FG 50%

.::Statistics::.

Miami:
C- Shaquille O'Neal/ 16pts, 11reb, 0ast, 8blk
F- Udonis Haslem/ 10pts, 9reb, 1ast
F- Antoine Walker/ 2pts, 1reb, 1ast, 1blk

G- J. Kidd/ 17pts, 2reb, 6ast

.::Post Game Summary::.

The statistics tell it all. Shaquille O' Neal getting 8 BLOCKS!!! Wade being the ONLY player to score 20+ points. This obviously was not the revenge the Nets had in mind. once again, the trio of Kidd, Carter and Jefferson all scored more than half of their teams total points. Not a good sign almost ending the month. Shaq almost getting a triple double, haha in points rebounds and blocks? haha...thatd be a first for me. Maybe when Miami plays New Jersey again. But until then, good job Miami and good luck New jersey.

NBA NEWS

In an attempt to continue to strengthen their PF depth, the Miami Heat have agreed to terms with the Lakers to trade away Damon Jones (PG) for young and upcoming Brian Cook (PF). Terms of the trade were not disclosed.

.::The Trade::.

Miami Gets:

Brian Cook

Lakers Get:

Damon Jones

.::The Skinny::.

Brian Cook? Why Brian Cook? Those will be the questions asked by interviewers during upcoming interviews with Pat Riley. Luckily, ESPN was able to get the skinny on the reasoning.

ESPN- Coach Riley. One question, Why Brian Cook?

Riley- Hahaha. It's easy, we needed a strong impact, "the future" projected power forward and we got one. Brian Cook may not look like much but he is one hell of a defensive player and deadly from behind the arc. And if you can combine a good defensive powerforward with a lethal 3pt shot, you got a decent well rounded power forward coming off the bench along with the Nikoloz. and thats that!

ESPN- Thank you Coach Riley and good luck with your so far excellent season.

Riley- Thank you and thanks for the support.

*Now back to my regular dynasty format lol...*

[Pr1kolaz]

Nice win against Indiana ! And hope that Cook will help u, to win the title !

[z3ro3 is bACk]

Nice win against Indiana ! And hope that Cook will help u, to win the title !

thanks and hopefully he'll help us out too. But rii now i think he'll be playing limited minutes. Ill probably get him in with more minutes next season.

.::Udonis Haslem With a Big Dunk as He Got His 5th Double-Double of The Season::.

.::Player of the Game::.



Udonis Haslem- 16pts, 10reb, 3ast, 8/12 FG 68%

.::Statistics::.

Miami:
C- Shaquille O'Neal/ 10pts, 4reb, 0ast
F- Udonis Haslem/ 16pts, 10rebs, 3ast
F- Antoine Walker/ 0pts, 1reb, 0ast
G- Dwyane Wade/ 22pts, 4reb, 7ast
G- Jon Fajardo/ 8pts, 1reb, 6ast

F- C. Anthony/ 27pts, 5rebs, 3ast
G- V. Lenard/ 14pts, 0reb, 1ast
G- A. Miller/ 10pts, 2reb, 8ast

.::Post Game Summary::.

This was the game we wanted to see! 10 lead changes in the 4th Quarter! Nothing says competition than two teams thriving for a win over the other. But in the end, Miami came out on top with a game winning shot by Alonzo Mourning with 5.9 seconds left on the clock (assist goes to Udonis Haslem). Udonis Haslem snatched his 5th season double-double with 16 points and 10 rebounds. Dwyane Wade added 22 points and Shaq, who had trouble in the game with 2 early 1st quarter fouls, a 3rd early 2nd quarter foul and 5 fould in the 3rd pretty much had to sit out, added 10 points and 4 boards. Once again it was Carmelo, martin and Lenard leading the squad to such a close game with a combo of 45 points for their squad. Camby who only had 2 points will need to step it up because Shaq was barely in the game! But good game and nice win for Miami.

*Game 22 @ Phoenix L(100-69)*

nice to c me #1 in the poll! anyways, i don't think u need this trade! cook is a great back up PF! and who will play this role if u'll take Wallace? walker? i think he would do a better work when he starts as SF! anyways - this is your decision!

[Pr1kolaz]

I'm #2 in the poll I think you must trade Cook and Tshkitisvili, Gerald Wallace is one of my favorite players:) this is your decision, keep up good work !

NBA NEWS

As Pat Riley continures his concern for Antoine Walker as he is not helping in no way, Pat Riley put his two big men on the line in order to receive a solid SF. With that he brought in Gerald Green of the Boston Celtics and Justin Reed and sent away Nikoloz Tskitishvili and Brian Cook. Terms of the Trade were not disclosed. When asked about the trade Riley said, we ismply needed something at the small ofrward position that Walker isnt quite giving us right now. And i think Gerald has just what we need to run our fast paced offense.

Miami Gets:

Gerald Green

Justin Reed

Boston Gets:

Brian Cook

Nikoloz Tskitishvili

[z3ro3 is bACk]

.::Game 31 Preview vs. Dallas::.

With the new roster changes putting Antoine Walker on the bench and Gerald Green taking his place, the Heat will look to use a fast paced offense to confuse and tire out the Dallas Mavericks. Mavericks, losing Josh Howard and Jason Terry will need to play smart if they hope to contain the Diesel, Flash and the young Gerald Green. My money goes on the Heat.

.::Projected Starters::.

Miami:
C- Shaquille O'Neal
F- Udonis Haslem
F- Gerald Green
G- Dwyane Wade
G- Jason Williams

Dallas:
C- E. Dampier
F- D. Nowitzki
F- J. Stackhouse

G- D. Harris- 9pts, 0reb, 6ast

.::Post Game Summary::.

What a lopsided victory with Miami winning 110-88. This was not Dallas' day at all. On the defense, the Heat stole the ball 12 times to Dallas' 2 steals. Most of the points however came from the foul. With Miami only fouling Dallas 7 times and Dallas 21 times! This proved to be Heat domination as Dwyane has his double-double, Shaq had his 3 blocks and the young rookie Gerald Green shot up in doublt digits in his debut as a Miami Heat starter over Antoine Walker. With this being the last game for Miami before the Month is over, look for preparations for there next upcoming games, news from the All-Star Week next month and much much more...

.::PLAYERS OF THE MONTH OF JANUARY::.

January players of the month has finally been released by the NBA. You'll be happy with this group of players:

.::Power Rankings (Top 5)::.

This list seems to be a little disappointing due to Cleveland. I dont think there even ready to be considered in the Top 5. Im pretty sure there spot will soon be taken over by a better team. Look for some changes during the month of the All-Star Games...

1) Detroit (24-10)
2) Miami (22-9)
3) San Antonio (23-10)
4) Dallas (21-13)
5) Cleveland (19-11)

.::Game 33 Preview @ Philadelphia::.

Samuel Dalembert is injured. With that, the 76ers have no dominant Center to take over. All they have is C-Webb, but does he have what it takes to take on the Big Diesel? Also, Riley changed the rosters with Fajardo starting over Williams due to quickness of Allen Iverson. So Jon Fajardo, probably one of the quickest players in the league and Iverson probably one of the quickest and most agile player in the league will clash together- so keep an eye out for that. Watch as Dwyane Wade an Co. look to continue their 5-game winning streak.

.::Projected Starters::.

Miami:
C- Shaquille O'Neal
F- Udonis Haslem
F- Gerald Green
G- Dwyane Wade
G- Jon Fajardo

Philadelphia:

.::Post Game Summary::.

This game well- let's put it this way: Miami had 32 assists, Philly 13. Miami had 14 Offensive Rebounds, Phille had 7. Maybe the injury to Samuel Dalembert was more serious than we thought because Shaq was eating up everyone with his 4 blocks, making him the new leader for the 5th time this season in total blocks with 56! This game was all for the big men as Haslem and O'Neal combined for 42 and Wade and Green combined for 30. Fajardo had himself yet another great game as he dished out 15 assists!!! The next A.I? not yet- still needs to work on his shooting. But this game was Miami all the way- no doubt about it.

*Game 34 @ Minnesota L(102-88)*

[z3ro3 is bACk]

Around the NBA

An unsuspecting injury will test the Miami Heat roster, although it won't be that serious but Jason Williams was injured during last nights game against Minnesota where he collided with Keven Garnett during a fast break run. Garnett, unharmed- but J. Will suffered a bruised knee which wont allow him to miss games but will put him on the bench until he is 100%. This will place Jon Fajardo in the starting position and Jason Williams coming off the bench. We'll see if the injury will affect J. Will's performance.



Jason Williams- Bruised Knee (Playable, but will be benched most likely)

[z3ro3 is bACk]

.::Game 35 Preview @ Portland::.

In their last meeting, the Heat put up some good number against Portland: Wade had 30 Shaq had 26 plus 5 blocks and 9 boards. This game shouldnt be much of a thriller. Jon Fajardo will be starting in place of Jason Williams and will provide Miami with an early speed advantage. Look for a good matchup between Sebastian Telfair and Jon Fajardo. As for the Center position, look for Shaq to dominate Theo Ratliff and the rest of the Trailblazer team.Also, Martell Webster will be starting at the 2 as he takes Juan Dixons spot. My money: on the Heat.

.::Projected Starters::.

Miami:

C- Shaquille O'Neal
F- Udonis Haslem
F- Gerald Green
G- Dwyane Wade
G- Jon Fajardo

Trailblazers:

F- Z. Randolph
F- D. Miles
G- M. Webster

.::Post Game Summary::.

Shaquille O' Neal everyone! 12/12 from the field! He was truly unstoppable as he scored all of his attempted shots, even his free throws. Along with his 26 points he added 13 boards, giving him a double double, 4 blocks with 2 assists. That was probably one of his best games ever since starting the league. Dwyane Wade was kinda of slow in the early going only getting in 6 points in the first half but destroyed the second half scoring the rest of his 25 points and going to the line 9 times. Jon Fajardo continued his team play as he dished out 9 assists 5 of whom were to Wade. I think this could be an excellent relationship for a new trio with Shaq the Power, Wade the HighFlyer and Fajardo the Playmaker. Miami won 94-91 shooting 54% from the field! Looks like a good sign with one game left before the ALL- STAR weekend.
