Q: Coach Erick i said it before this can be fix and you will. our ship isn't going to sink in the future. it happened at the right time after 27pts/10 boards and 22pts/9 boards at the D-league. chalmers is making a lot progress by now. we need them to be very strong inside just like the opposite center flexible his muscle(tyson,howard... thought their all that inside).dexter great bob Mc and alonzo will teach you how to punish these guys inside you've got better move than them,be focus like chalmers all the time my advice to you. we need this team to settle down like it suppose too. right now we're only one inch away on what we try to have a better view for the future.after that go heat we're not affraid anybody grade b team now.

Q: Who else has been quite efficient in its ability to weak-side option? Mr. Arroyo. During the three previous seasons Arroyo was assisted in 24, 24 and 38 percent of their shots from the field. So far this season, the Heat's starting point guard has received assistance in 75 percent of their shots, which tells us that is usually open and his teammates know. Also recording a log of the actual percentage of 56.7 percent (the highest of his career), getting rebounds at a decent pace and, believe it or not, leads the Heat in offensive rating (points per possession while the player is in the court). Arroyo may not be the long-term solution to the Heat point guard, but has been effective in the early games downloads receiver James and a threat from the weak side midway in the investment of swing "Heat. because you said it should be out of the rotation and start chalmers

Q: How're all those bold predictions of 73 wins looking now. This team plays horrible defense and won't even make it out of the east. What a joke. The Celts and Bulls are better, and The Bulls don't even have Carlos Boozer yet back from injury. Both the Bulls and Celts have deeper benches. Miami isn't even the best team in their division. Orlando is a better team. Celts 2-0 head 2 head. Bulls and Orlando better quality wins on the road and at home.

Q: It appears that Bosh is playing below his former level because he's slowed by his knee. How bad do you think is the condition of Bosh's knee? I've noticed that he isn't elevating much and that he has trouble running the court. I can't tell whether he is in pain or whether it's just the brace. Clearly something is wrong, which begs the question of why the Heat -- given all the alternatives -- went after someone with knee problems.

Q: Erick as you the coach I've been warned you about it. this can be fix for the entire organisation and particular yourself. my point view for you again is to start Chalmers as starter and dexter too. first Chalmers with damper to see how it work.but the price you paid now is Patrick Beverly he's ability to rebound, defend his position as a rookie in the summer I've seen.if you can find a way to call Beverly to try out that'll be great idea to back up Chalmers. we need to keep our intensity level on the defensive side all the time at point guard that's what we need to get going. arroyo is not bad but for this team no room for him at all either you like it or not arroyo is backing up Chalmers same old story repeat again about missing assignments on defensive side i have my trust in that after that good luck go heat you can it we'll take a strong man to do those change ahead of time to avoid the ship sink in the future.

Q: Hey, Mike I've got a question for you media people. Why don't you write a story about how Kevin Durant supports LeBron James and how good of friends they are to each other. Instead of trying to depicted Kevin as the Anti-LeBron. Now I'm not saying you depicted him as that but other media people do outside of Cleveland. I'm the biggest Kevin Durant fan and if a guy as nice and as humble as Kevin can forgive LeBron for the way he made his decision, and realize that he was looking out for his family and for himself and still be close friends with him and look up to him as a big brother then I can forgive LeBron too. But from my understanding a lot of articles that I have read today say its more fun to separate the two them and give LeBron horns and give Kevin a halo and to continue to depicted Kevin Durant as the Anti-LeBron James. All I'm saying is it would be nice for the truth to come out every once and a while instead trying to make them rivals off the court.

Q: More Heat hate/denial/jealousy/ I don't even know what to call it anymore- Apparently Durant is the overwhelming favorite to win MVP this year. Since when, though, does the MVP not go to the best player on the best team? It's a flawed system, but that's how it's always worked and it's too late to change it now. Heat fans experienced this firsthand in '08 when Wade was snubbed because Miami's record was too low, despite his insanely good individual performance. So unless these same people are predicting the Thunder and Lakers to have more W's than Miami, how are Lebron and Wade not the overwhelming favorites to win MVP?

Q: Hey Mike, even tho Lebron is a heck of an unselfish player, I do notice that he tends to hold on to the ball sometimes disrupting the offensive flow. Don't you think it would be better for a team like this to use the triangle offense,thus utilizing BOTH Wade's passing abilities along with Lebron's without either one dominating the ball?

Q: Hey Mike. I have 2 questions for you. I fully understand that with atheletes in preaseason and training camp that hamstring strains are pretty common in all sports, with that being said is Wade's being held out of these games to ensure complete health ata least until the last couple of games, just to give him, Bosh, and LBJ at least some time to get there timing with each other down? Also, to me Dexter Pittman on the low blocks looks like a raw version of Zo with his post up moves that he displayed in the Pistons game. Has Zo been working with him on his game as well as maybe his physique because the guy is beginning to show signs of a beast that will be hard to keep buried on the back end of the rotation of big men let alone the roster?

Q: What will the final roster look like? It will be a shame if we do not end up signing Butler or Beverly. Butler can prove to be a steal and Beverly has shown defensive prowless, something this staff demands from everyone. I know the Big Cat has Wade on his side and by accounts seems to be a good veteran presence but at the end of the day he did not play much last season and we will be out of the draft for quite some time. Should we turn to youth instead?

Q: Joel Anthony is the only piece in the starting line-up that has me somewhat concerned. Yes, he is a good (not great) defensive player and yes he is a great shot blocker. However, we pretty much get ZERO offensive efforts from him. I've seen him grab rebounds and instead of taking the open lay-up to score or get a foul call, he rather pass the ball outside. I know we have a lot of offense everywhere else, but 8 points a game from our starting center wouldn't hurt right? What do you think about starting Big Z? He isn't a terrible defender either and is likely to be a little more aggresive at the offense.
