Heat coach Erik Spolestra said there would be no timetable for Wade’s return. Wade, who has a sprained right ankle worked out alone moncler jackets in another part of AmericanAirlines Arena. Meanwhile, on the main practice court, Miller, who has missed everything so far recovering from a sports hernia, participated in a semi-physical three-on-three game.
Though Miller once again said “I’m 100 percent ready to play,” Spolestra wouldn’t commit to Miller playing Tuesday. Still, Miller’s far more likely to see time than Wade, who has more dents than a ’72 Pinto.
“As long as he sits down and rests,” Heat forward Chris Bosh said. “He’s been pushing it, he’s been giving it everything it has. Unfortunately, last game [Friday in Denver], he turned his ankle. But, sometimes, things happen. He probably needed to sit down and rest in the first place. It’s a blessing in disguise. We need to be cheap moncler jackets healthy when it’s time to make a run in the playoffs. Chill out right now, get better and we’ll hold it down until he can come back.”
Old habits
And to hold it down, Heat forward LeBron James said he has to step it up at both ends while his pal heals.
“Revert back to some of the ways of where I was back in Cleveland where, for the most part, I had to be the No. 1 option offensively,” James said. “Not force it, but put a little more pressure on myself to be more in tune with the offense, knowing you’ve got a high-powered offensive player and defensive player sitting out.”
James said with Wade in he doesn’t downshift, but “It’s just knowing you have more options out there and you don’t have to force as much. You don’t have to worry, ‘if I don’t go out and get my 30 a night. … then we don’t give ourselves a good chance to win.’ ”
Spolestra did say if Wade misses games, guard cheap burberry bags James Jones, who played five minutes on the three-game road trip, gets a bigger role in the rotation.
“The last three or four games, I’ve tightened the rotation to help our guys be a little more consistent,” Spolestra said.
Alas, the Heat wasn’t and the team spent the majority of Sunday’s session in video review.
“It’s a good day to catch up, but also to do a lot of teaching,” Spolestra said. “Very detail-oriented, very specific. Tomorrow, more of a training camp-type of practice.”
Asked for a main talking point of the session, Heat forward Shane Battier said, “We’re forcing a lot of turnovers, which is great. But we’re cheap moncler giving up a lot of turnovers on our offensive end. It’s too tough to win giving the good teams in this league extra opportunities.”

Since rocketing from the Florida coast in September
Despite being well studied, Earth's closest neighbor remains an enigma.
Over the New Year's weekend, a pair moncler jackets of spacecraft the size of washing machines are set to enter orbit around it in the latest lunar mission. Their job is to measure the uneven gravity field and determine what lies beneath — straight down to the core.
Since rocketing from the Florida coast in September, the near-identical Grail spacecraft have been independently traveling to their destination and will arrive 24 hours apart. Their paths are right on target that engineers recently decided not to tweak their positions.
"Both spacecraft have performed essentially flawlessly since launch, but one can never take anything for granted in this business," said mission chief scientist Maria Zuber of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
The nail-biting part is yet to come. On New Year's Eve, one of the Grail probes — short for Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory — will fire its engine to slow down so that it could be captured into orbit. This move will be repeated by the other the following day.
Engineers said the chances of the probes overshooting are slim since their trajectories have been precise. Getting struck by a cosmic ray may prevent the completion of the engine burn and they won't get boosted into the right orbit.
"I know I'm going to be nervous. I'm definitely a worrywart," said project manager David Lehman of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, which manages the $496 million, three-month mission.
Once in orbit, the spacecraft will spend the next two months flying in formation and chasing one another around cheap moncler jackets the moon until they are about 35 miles above the surface with an average separation of 124 miles. Data collection won't begin until March.
Previous missions have attempted to measure lunar gravity with mixed success. Grail is the first mission dedicated to this goal.
As the probes circle the moon, regional changes in the lunar gravity field will cause them to speed up or slow down. This in turn will change the distance between them. Radio signals transmitted by the spacecraft will measure the slight distance gaps, allowing researchers to map the underlying gravity field.
Using the gravity information, scientists can deduce what's below or at the lunar surface such as mountains and craters and may help explain why the far side of the moon is more rugged than the side that faces Earth.
The probes are officially known as Grail-A and Grail-B. Several months ago, NASA hosted a contest inviting schools and students to submit new names. The probes will be christened with the winning names after the second orbit insertion, Zuber said.
Besides the one instrument on board, each spacecraft also carries a camera for educational purposes. Run by a company founded by Sally Ride, the first American woman in space, middle school students from participating schools can choose their own lunar targets to image during the mission.
A trip to the moon is typically relatively quick. It took Apollo astronauts three days to get there. Since Grail was launched from a relatively small rocket to save on costs, the journey took 3 1/2 months.
Scientists expect the mission to yield a bounty of new information about the moon, but don't count on the U.S. sending astronauts back anytime soon.
