Though @MiamiHEAT have a 12gm win streak over Cats it's a different team especially on "D". From 29th Oppositon ppg(102.7) to 4th (93.2)

One game suspension for Chalmers.

Mario Chalmers suspended one game for Friday's flagrant foul, out tonight vs. Bobcats in Charlotte.

Fixed. Thanks! RT @sbarruf I think you've got it backwards today Ira

Na. Ain't no way @mchalmers15 should be suspended. It's obvious from the video that his arm got caught in the screen, he pulled it free...

Never in my career been a dirty player. It's clear that my arm was being held and that's wat caused me to hit dirk. Enough is enough man

My teammates gonna hold it down for me tonight against the bobcats. Can't wait till Tuesday night. It's startin to get personal now

That tweet from @mchalmers15 is consistent with what he said last night in the locker room: trying to get his arm free from Dalembert.

With Chalmers suspended and Ray Allen coming off an illness, it makes it far less likely Dwyane Wade sits out second night of back to back.

Figure on Wade and Cole starting in the backcourt and chance for legitimate playing time for Roger Mason Jr.

OFFICIAL: The NBA has suspended Mario Chalmers 1 game for a Flagrant Foul 2 last night vs. Dallas. Chalmers will miss tonight's game.

On a brighter note. My son hit his first game winner today. Wat can I say it runs in our… instagram.com/p/gyXxCHP4QN/

I can see the flagrant-2 on Chalmers. Elbow to the head. And it looked bad. But a game on top of it?

Actually curious about this: So is Chalmers allowed to Tweet now during tonight's game against the Bobcats?

Who leveled Dirk? Chalmers. Who helped Dirk up? Same guy. Don't see that often when there's intent to injure.

Lineups, inactives all come out at about 6 p.m. But doubt it. RT @GuiVilas Is Oden inactive ?

HEAT @bobcats 2nite on SunSports. Pre-Game 6:30, 7pm game. Char is 5-4 & ranked #4 in Opp PPG - 94, #1 in Opp Fast Br Pts. Mia is 6-3.

“@ByTimReynolds: Going back to last season's playoffs, Shane Battier has zero turnovers in his last 292:08 of court time.”

So, that's Chalmers, Allen and Haslem out tonight. Which may answer the question of whether Dwyane Wade plays.

“@ChrisFreet: The @AP has covered every @MiamiHurricanes game since football was invented & have reporters everywhere.” > The standard.

As always, we recommend following @ChrisFreet and @ChrisYandle for all Miami Hurricane official game day news.

Miamaryland 21, Virginia Tech 7, 3Q.

If Maryland holds on, Al Golden is giving the Terps Monday off.

Without Oden also out, Miami essentially down to 11 tonight. Opportunity for Mason Jr., maybe Jones.

And then Maryland reminds us that they're the first college that admitted a certain unemployed sports shock jock. Buckle up, Canes fans.

Brian Wright about to go to 2 and 0 affidavits at FAU.

Cent Fla is playing like a safety school today.

Total of Cent Fla fans defending them right now: 0.

Alex Trebek: "Cent Fla fans." Jeopardy! contestant: "Who are studio gangsters?"

After suspension, Mario Chalmers pleads his case on Twitter and says 'it's startin to get personal' bit.ly/1gUv3Y8

VTech ties it. Maryland isn't helping you out, Canes fans.

CBS4 to cut away from the game that affects Miami to show ... Georgia-Auburn?!

If Dwyane Wade sits tonight, Heat could go with a starting lineup of Norris Cole, Roger Mason Jr., LeBron, Shane Battier and Chris Bosh.

Of course, it seems doubtful that Wade would sit now that Chalmers is out and Ray Allen didn't travel with the team.

This could be that night @KingJames attempts 40 shots and goes for 70-plus points: No Wade, no Allen, no Chalmers, in Jordan's building.

FSU goes big and scores the first TD of the game. Took 'em about 2 and a half minutes. Winston perfect on the drive.

Stacy Coley 78 PR TD
