This game was not a game at all, the Suns were out to hurt the Miami Heat players. I'm glad that no one got really hurt, but I am disappointed on the way the Suns played. Talking about injuries, Dwayne Wade is back from his hamstring injury. I have not experienced any hamstring injuries, but that has to be painful. Another injury was Dragic who was playing with back spasms and he did not want to miss this game at all. Dragic had one wish for his birthday, and his wish was to beat the Suns.
When Dragic was leaving the Suns to get traded to the Heat, his former teammates called him selfish for trading him to the Heat last month. That has to be disappointing to know that your own teammates that you played for a long time with would go and call you names for leaving. I do get that they are going to be mad, but if they were your true teammates they would understand. That would be devastating to me if I knew that my former teammates were going to be calling me names for leaving. I'm happy that Dragic played through his back spasms and added 21 points against the Suns.
It was not all Dragic this game, but more of Tyler Johnson who scored 26 points off the bench. Tyler is only signed with the Heat for only 10 day, but I'm glad that he played. During the game there was three ejections, two flagrant fouls, and six player technicals and I hope these players get some kind of punishment for not playing the game right. I saw a recap of the game and some plays that players did get ejected or thrown out of the game was a right call by the references. One play that has stuck in my mind is when Dragic got the ball and started running down for a fast break. Morris who is a Suns player went after Dragic and tried blocking it, but got Dragic by the neck area. That kind of play scares me because he could have broke his neck or could have broke something.
This was a must win for the Heat because Dragic's teammates knew that Dragic wanted to win against his former team. The Miami Heat team were not going to lose this game and have Dragic disappointed. Most of the players who replied to what happened during the game said that it was suppose to be Dragic Vs. Suns, but there was a lot more that happened. I'm not sure what Dragic is thinking or feeling towards his former team right now for the way they treated him, but he has to be thinking bad stuff about them.
Overall, this game was kind of exciting to watch, but kind of scary. I'm really glad that no one was really hurt and that the game was controlled. Even though Dragic had back spasms, he still played and I'm happy that he was able to get the win against his former team. If I were a Suns fan I would be embarrassed on how the Suns played because to me it looked like they were out to hurt the Miami Heat team. It is a mans sport and basketball can get out of hand a little, but the refs have to control the game and that's what they did. All I have to say is I don't like the Suns and I'm really happy that the Heat won.
