Without Dwayne Wade

This last Sunday the Miami Heat went up against the Brooklyn Nets. The downfall to this game is that they don't have Dwayne Wade to help them win. He is out with a hamstring injury and probably won't be able to play for another week.  I know that Wade has had a lot of problems through out his life and I hope that he comes back really quick. The Miami Heat have good players but I think they don't really have a go to player to score when Wade is out. The Heat still won the game against the Brooklyn Nets, which I thought was a lucky game for them.  

I really don't have that much faith for the Miami Heat when Dwayne Wade is out. I have not seen anything on Wade and when he might return or if he returned already. Dwayne Wade pulled his hamstring while he was playing against the Indiana Pacers, which they lost to. During shoot around before the game against the Hawks, Wade did not participate during that and said that he was not going to play. His coach and his teammates said that Wade has been working out and trying to get stronger.

I seen this article on Dwayne Wade and it says that he is taking his injury day by day. Same thing happened to Danny Granger for the Miami Heat. He is out with a left hamstring injury but he says if the team needs him he will play. I do not agree on what Danny Granger just said because he just hurt himself and I think he should have time to recover before he plays. I hope both players stay out and get better before they start playing hard again. 

Not to mention that Wade has had really bad injury over the past years. They say that his left knee has been hurting more than his right knee and he has to get his left knee drained a couple of times over the seasons. That to me does not sound good at all because I'm starting to have knee problems  and I have to go out for a MRI pretty soon. Just knowing that Wade has been facing knee problems his whole life just does not sound good for him. I think that Wade probably has about 10 years tops before he retires due to knee problems.

Also, in the article I read that Wade's goal was to play every game. That was shattered when Wade got injured playing against Indiana. If Wade does not start on Monday, then Mario Chalmers would likely take his spot. Last year, I guess Wade went out with the same injury and missed a whole nine games. His coach said that he would not be surprised if he did not play on monday. Overall, Wade is getting kinda old and for him having knee problems already is not good at all. That's why I said I only give my best player 10 years of being in the NBA before he retires.

Honda Problems

Last summer, I went half and half on a four wheeler with my girlfriend's parents. My girlfriend and I paid half and her parents paid half. I was told by her parents that they were not going to get the four wheeler until the weekend. I was excited to finally have a Honda that I can almost call mine. The person who we were buying the honda off of was a good friend of mine, so I thought that the Honda was in good condition. The weekend came and I asked her parents if they got the four wheeler or were going to get it but her parents said not until Sunday. They said that the person wanted to go hunting for reindeer first before he gives us his bike.

Saturday came along and I was walking from the store to my house to go home and eat when I saw her dad driving the bike to his house. I was so excited and happy that we have a bike now because last summer my girlfriend and I would ask around to borrow someone's bike for a couple of hours. We had no luck looking for a four wheeler to borrow, we even said that we would pay to rent it and pay for gas. Anyways we got the four wheeler and it was just like a rust bucket. I was happy but not happy at the same time, and the reason I was not happy because the muffler was cracked, there was only one brake and soon after that I spent two or three weeks replacing the whole back end.

I had to get a new whole back end and if it was not for a friend who let me have one of his back ends then the honda would of just sat. It would have collected more rust and never got fixed. I am thankful that I have a uncle that helped me with it. If it was not for him than I'd still be working on it today and not knowing what I was doing. Here is a picture of what it looks like when I was taking the back end off to be replaced.





After the work was finally over and the back end was finally replaced, the front left tire decides that it wants to mess up as well. I was pretty mad about that because here my uncle and I just fixed the back end of the bike and now the tire is messing up. I talked to my basketball coach about it because he knows a lot about honda's and what he thinks the problem might be. He says that I have to adjust the tie rod and he also says that I might have bent it. I hope that I did not bent it because then I would have to ask my friend for his tie rod and don't worry the parts I'm getting is from a new but broken honda.

I also need to put the brakes back on and put new oil filters in it. I still have a lot of work in front of me but I find time to work on the honda. I love to work on things because I love to solve the problem and feel accomplished when it works. The honda right now is ride able but I need to get on it this weekend. Overall, I have fun working on the bike and no matter how mad it makes me it always pays off in the end.

Talks About Miami Heat Having A Better Record Than Cleveland

Over the past couple of days, there has been talk that the Miami Heat will have a better record than the Cleveland Cavaliers. I think that the Cavaliers did start off pretty bad but I also think that the Miami Heat started off bad, as well. Other players and other media people have been saying that the Heat will have a better recorded than the Cavaliers, how do they know that? It's still early in the season to predict which team will have a better record. I have a hard time picking on what team I would like to see have a better record. Since I'm a Heat fan and not so much a Cavaliers fan, I'm going to have to say that I want to see the Heat have a better record.

I don't have internet or cable at my house, so I have not been able to watch any of the basketball games. I know that the Heat's recorded is 5:3 and the Cavalier's recorded is 3:3. This year for both teams has been hard and that is unexpected because the Cavaliers has three good players this year and same goes for the Heat. The Heat I think is not better than the Cavaliers in players wise but it all comes down to what team wants it more. It's going to be a exciting season for both teams.

Rick Ross is betting 100k that the Heat will finish above the Cavaliers. Rick Ross is a Heat fan and the fact that Lebron left still let's me know that they are still people who like the Heat. I'm a huge Heat fan and I know I have blogged about it or told you about it but I'm such a huge fan! I think the only reason why Rick Ross beat 100k on the Heat having a better recorded is for excitement and for both teams to step it. Rick Ross, to me, he is just a true Heat fan to bet 100k. It is kind of dumb, but if he has faith in the Heat having a better recorded, than awesome for him.

The Heat have not been right since Lebron James left Miami and went back to the Cavaliers. I know that Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh are not happy with Lebron James leaving but they got to accept that he left. Chris Bosh I think still does not talk to James and I don't know if Wade talks to James or not. The whole reason why James went back to the Cavaliers is because one he said he was coming back and two he wants to play with Kyrie Irving. James leaving the Cavaliers to go with the Heat was he wanted to win a championships. James did that and know he wants to return to his home the Cavaliers and win championships with them.

Dwayne Wade and the Heat have been slowly trying to get a good start and good record this year. The whole team has been struggling and the reason for that is, that they don't have Lebron James to rely on. The leadership has falling on the veterans like Chris Bosh, Dwyane Wade, and Udonis Haslem to make there team better. Dwyane Wade needs to step it up this year and that is going to be hard when he is always injured. When Wade is injured it plays a role on the team because he is not in the game to help but that does not stop him, he is always cheering his team on at the games.
