It's really fun watching Asik develop almost minute-by-minute. The late Pete Newell would have really enjoyed working with him.

One of the biggest bargains in basketball.

There's a nice video breakdown here of the final minute and a half of the game.

Overall I thought this was the best game we've played this year by quite some distance. You have to get almost everything right to beat the Heat, and for 47 minutes we did that. Just a shame that some inexperience told at the end and we were unable to close it out.

I only got to see the fourth quarter but the play that upset me the most was not getting the rebound after Wade missed both free throws. It would be easy to blame Patterson for not getting that rebound, but I blame Sampson. On the biggest rebound of the game to get, Sampson did not have Asik in the game until after Bosh grabbed the offensive rebound and was fouled. In my opinion he should have had Asik, Patterson and Jones in the game to ensure we got that rebound, but he still had his small lineup that featured Patterson as our center. That was the biggest play of the game that ultimately led to Harden dribbling down the clock and jacking up a three.
