Tonight was a tough one when picking what to watch espeically if you have the NFL network. I was watching the Heat game obviously. and the first half wasnt bad, and it was key that D-Wade did do good in the first half and the role players as well as LBJ who hit his first jumper of the night he ended the first half with 14 points which wasnt bad wade was play well and bosh heated up at the end of the half (no pun intended) but i really didnt expect the second half to start the way it did i expected the Cav;s to come out a little stronger then they did, but instead they came out weak and LeBron i think wanted to make a statement going for 24 points in the 3rd quarter and 38 total points 5 rebounds 8 dimes and 1 steal 1 block not bad at all for a homecoming, if you ask me all the great players always step up big when in a place where they are hated i dont know what it is but i wouldnt want to motivate talent such as LeBron and D-Wade and Bosh, yes i know this was biggest for LBJ but you better believe it was huge for his teammate as well. I think this was a great game for them as far as using it to move forward in the right directions. I think it is safe to say that this is the Heat team we expected to see coming out of the gate, although they still are yet to beat a quality team i think this is a step in the right direction. If you ask me i think the Heat need a point guard like the Celtics have in Rondo or like the Suns Steve Nash they need someone who can get LeBron and D-Wade there looks and not have to worry about scoring so much himself worry more about controlling the ball and having a lot of basketball smarts and also should try and learn as much as possible from LBJ and Wade as well as much about how they play as possible, yes it is also important to be able to spread the floor but i think right now Wade is worrying to much about LeBron getting his and not focusing on his game as i have said before.
So after the Heat game turned boring i switched over to catch the second half of the UCLA vs. Kansas game. When i turned it on it was the start of the second half and the game was tied at 45, as i watched UCLS take a small lead it just seemed that their freshmen Josh Smith was to much inside for Kansas to handle he was rebounding and scoring at will, also a lot of that probably came cause the pressure was more on honeycutt (who was amazing going for 33 points 9 rebound 4 dimes 2 steals and 1 block) who also had an amazing game. Kansas was shooting poorly from the free throw line which also helped UCLA out in the start of the second half, but Kansas is a truly selfless basketball team not caring who gets the points as long as they get them and as long as they get the lead the Morris brother were a huge part of the game for Kansas Marcus more so with his brother fouling out, but it just seemed that Kansas was able to have more production from more people instead of 2 guys having to do all the work. I wont say that it didnt work for UCLA i mean it seemed like this one was heading into overtime when honeycutt hit the game tying 3 pointer with i think 7 seconds left on the clock and Kansas gets the ball down the court and almost has it stolen but then picks up a foul with .7 left on the clock hitting the first pretty much sealed the deal for the Jayhawks to make it 64 straight at home.
As if that wasn't enough to pick from you also like i said if you had the NFL network you coulda watched the Eagles beat the Texans, but if not you coulda enjoyed a double overtime in state rivalry game in ASU vs #24 ranked AU and watched my sundevils pull off the upset congrats ASU. Also glad the Lobos are playing well i know they lost one early but thats expected they do have some talent thats still waiting to enter the picture but i think we have another NCAA birth headed our way this season if i didnt just jinx it haha. well thats all for today there are so many great games to watch this weekend i will for sure be busy and for sure have LOTS to post about so PLEASE come on back tomorrow ill touch on the college football for the weekend talk some NBA as well as NFL.
