Raptors out classed by Heat in the fourth

The first three quarters were a lot of up and down scoring a lot with the game tied @ 83 and the Raptors were shooting 59% and the Heat were shooting 57% and the Raptors really came out and played in the third quarter as they outscored the Heat 32-24. In the fourth quarter the Heat brought the D so did the raptors early in the quarter and the Raptors stood with the Heat with a James Johnson 3-ball and a Bargnani 3-ball and @ the 8:33 point the game was tied @ 89. This is where the wheels came off for the Raptors as Calderon decided to take a charge against D-Wade so it started with Wade trying to post him up and Calderon shuffled the feet getting ready before the Wade move or more like a shoulder block to Calderon chest and Wade heads to the line as Calderon is charged with the shooting foul and then because Calderon has never fouled anyone in his pro career he complains to the Refs and gets a tech so the Heat and Wade are on the line for 3 shots and make them all and never look back. The Heat started a 8-0 run and a 16-4 run to put the game away which including an offensive charge by Amir Johnson who went one-on-one with D-Wade and Wade did the same things as Calderon and then Wade got right into Johnson space and Johnson got his arms up to drive or pass and Wade took a forearm to the face and a Raptors turnover which they had 16 in the game. This situations really rattled the Raptors and the offensive never recovered and the Heat D was air tight and they took advantage of the Raptors putting their heads down and the Heats went into the heart of the paint and slammed home slams. The Heat won the game 113-101 with D-Wade (6 assists/boards) and Bosh (8 boards) both 30 points in the game and LBJ had 26 points and 9 assists in the game as they had 86 points and the rest of the team had 27 points and this is after all three were held under 20 points against the defending champs @ home in a 21 point win for the Heat 106-85. The Raptors got another great game from Bargnani who had 27 points and DeRozan had 28 points and was 10 of 10 from the line while Calderon had 16 assists to go with 9 points and then the Raptors were lead in boards by Amir Johnson with 12 as each team had 30 boards in the game. So in the end the Raptors were unable to recover from the Heat maybe getting calls but the reality is that the Heat are a very good team and gets the calls and if the Raptors can win more of their games and make teams pay at the the ACC they will start getting the calls that the elite teams receive.
