Howard is a huge liability in a close game as exhibited once again here in his game. This season LA lost several games already on the FT misses of Howard alone.
this game is not on Howard. Can't blame him.
What was key to the game was Miami's defense. Unrelenting yung D nila. Ganda ng double teams and ganda ng spacing. Pag napasa sa open player, ambilis ng recovery! Nakakainggit.
They denied a lot of passes kay Howard. Howard was very active and kept asking for the ball but the Miami D was so good that the Lakers had a hard time passing it inside to Howard. Commendable talaga.
On the other hand yung Lakers = walang kwentang D, pangit spacing, players just standing in the perimeter and not much activity, no screen plays to break the D of Miami, etc etc. which in short, means that we suck this season and there's no remedy for that.
