Miami Heat Center Hassan Whiteside - a Terror in the Paint

Miami Heat Center, Hassan Whiteside #21 has got Wade covered on defense with his shot blocking and rebounding. After blocking at one end Hassan strategically makes a fast break to the other end to assist Chris Bosh or other team mates with some dynamic offense and more rebounding.

At home Hassan has structure in his diet. Early workout exercises to strengthen and work out his upper and lower body before the games. His shoes are strategically aligned in a room designated just for shoes.

In his kitchen Whiteside  has the proper equipment for juicing and making nutritious meals. He carefully watches his carbs.

A fish tank and a view of the water keeps Whiteside aligned with nature's calm tranquility. He keeps a picture of Martin Luther King on his wall to remind him of the challenges and obstacles he had to overcome learning to walk and run again after an injury.

Well rounded, Whiteside has no time to worry about "that other guy."  He's too busy putting a stop to "that other team."     http://www.VeraGilford.com

Miami Heat and the NCAA Finals - Duke Over Wisconsin

With Duke and Wisconsin in the NCAA 2015 Finals, I wondered how the Miami Heat individual team members lined up. Who favored Duke and who favored Wisconsin to win.

I am sure that the two Miami Heat players who attended Duke, Luol Deng #9 and Josh McRoberts #4 were definitely cheering for Duke. Hassan Whiteside #21 from North Carolina was probably routing for Duke.

I suspect that players who lived in northern cities or played for teams in northern cities like shooting guard, Tyler Johnson #8 born in North Dakota, Dwyane Wade #3 from Chicago and Marquette, Chris Bosh # 1 from the Toronto Raptors, Shabazz Napier #13 born in Massachusetts, Goran Dragic #7 and Zoran Dragic #12 both from Yugoslavia were all routing for Wisconsin.

As for the rest of the Miami Heat team, Henry Walker #5, Udonis Haslem #40, James Ennis #32, Mario Chalmers #15, and Chris Andersen #11, Shawne Williams #43 they were somewhere in the middle.

Smack in the center was probably Michael Beasley #30, who is ambidextrous and attended six high schools so he is accustomed to shifting around a lot.  He played for the Timberwolves for two years so he could have been for Wisconsin. However, I would say that since his long-time buddy, Nolan Smith played for Duke, Beasley was routing for the champions, Duke. 

Am I right? Send me your comments to let me know the real deal.  http://www.VeraGilford.com
