Also, read this - it's about Ed Downs and Wade/Bosh working with him...

Bosh gave a testimonial statement after working with Downs on the trainer’s proterf.com website.

“It has given me a strong base that I need playing down low as a center versus a power forward,” said Bosh. “I feel I have a more solid post-up game and presence for offensive and defensive rebounding."

Might want to take that one off your website, Ed. Somebody post a gif of Landry ripping that board out of CB's hand.

Pittman joined the Heat because team was worried about Anthony's ankle. Back to Sioux Falls after.

That Bosh quote is a joke. Ed's results haven't been stellar. I wonder if LeBron went back to him.

Speaking of Bosh, I'm not at all upset he didn't make the AS starting lineup. He's no doubt had a better season than Garnett, but he didn't play well enough to make it obvious. You have to really convince the casual fan you're worthy when they're given another option who has the bigger name cache, regardless of how well he's playing. Chandler or Noah may've deserved it over him anyway. Bosh hasn't even really played well enough to satisfy me, let alone well enough to impact voters.

We're about to enjoy @DwyaneWade's birthday cake from Hublot on the team flight back to Miami!

Holy shit, what a cake

Alvin Gentry fired in Houston. Personally think he's a good coach who has been in a bunch of situations with terrible rosters.

If Rothstein retires, he'd be an awesome replacement.

Pittman sent back to Sioux Falls, as expected. With no Heat games this weekend, team wanted him to get a couple more starts in.

Here's a little gift Wade got for his 31st birthday from one of his sponsors...

A freaking McLaren.

Houston coach fired? WTF? They are overachieving!?

Almost nobody had them as a playoff team before the season started!

Dee-Zy · 01-18-2013, 03:24 PM

He hasn't made the Lin/harden combo work yet though.

**Wade2Bosh** · 01-18-2013, 03:47 PM

Phoenix Suns coach Alvin Gentry was fired. Smithi just mis-typed on the Houston thing.

**Jace** · 01-18-2013, 07:48 PM

I've liked Gentry too. Apparently the split was mutual.

Dee-Zy · 01-18-2013, 09:04 PM

Man I feel dumb. McHale is the Rox coach, there was stories about him taking a leave of absence after his daughter's tragedy.

### This can’t continue: Chris Bosh averaged just 4.6 rebounds on the six-game road trip.

### Nor can this: Shane Battier shot 0 for 10 on the road trip (he played in only three games due to an earlier injury) and is now 0 for his last 15, 1 for his last 21 and 4 for his last 33.

Holy shit ShaBosh!

That's awful. I feel like Shane is missing on purpose because he's convinced himself it's time to regress to the mean.

JarVar and Jorts' 10-days expired today. No word on Jar, but Jorts is exploring other options for more playing time. Really weird he was never tried. Must've sucked in practice.

Prolly couldn't keep up on D.
