I love Spo but the disregard for size is some weird ****.

same.....

The last time we looked "good" for any stretch was the last time Bam/Love/jovic got on the court in pairs...

That forces other guys down the position chart....

size matters.....

SIZE MATTERS SPO

If Spo just plays Love and Jovic at PF with Bam we don’t need Gallinari. Please just don’t put Love with Highsmith at PF ever again. I might be on one of those tiktok break the TV skits if that happens again

Jimmy Butler out, Heat back to playing good...

I really want us to sign another PG. That’s really the more pressing need. We have bigs as long as Spo continues to play them

Size is king, plus Jovic can spread the floor, has the size to rebound, can pass and can press the pace. Love can box, rebound, pass and spread the floor with his 3 point shot, and Bam can play elite defense , play dominant inside, collapse the D, push the pace. Spo has the ingredient to have gourmet dinner, question is, is he hungry enough. Add Duncan’s shooting and PnR with Bam, I mean C’mon Spo.

If he fully commits to Love and Jovic at PF then sky is the limit. The moment he goes back to Love and Highsmith/Martin at PF we’ll be back to garbage again. Solely play Highsmith and Martin at SG/SF. Never at PF ever again. Give me Thomas Bryant instead of that again.

we always seem to play fluid when down a few of our starters. Spo stops running his experiments and lets guys play more. Its like night and day the energy guys have.

fishfuego. · Post #513 » by **fishfuego.** » Wed Feb 14, 2024 3:47 am

In the post game, Spo is asked about the lineups, mentions every single player from Bam to Highsmith, and not even once Jovic…. WTF!!!

Show it again tomorrow in another win Jovic, show you can be consistent.

I want the following to be our 9 man rotation going forward:

Bigs: Bam, Jovic, Love
SF: Jimmy and Jaime
SG: Herro and Duncan
PG: Rozier and whoever we sign to back him up

No more undrafteds except Duncan and no more undersized swingmen playing power forward.

He wants zero Hype for Jovic, cause we all know the moment Rozier and Jimmy are back, Caleb and Jagsmith need their minutes so the only spot for them is PF with little minutes at the SF. You saw players today playing their natural position, that won't happen when we get our guys healthy again, sorry but it is what it is.

It’s not rocket science. Just keep things simple. Problem is at first sign of trouble he’ll want to revert back. He’ll go seven game losing streak with small ball but if Jovic misses a rotation he’ll be sent to the shadow realm

I hear you lol
Those midget lineups are soooo painfully at a disadvantage, I can see more injuries from it than anything really good. Players have to play at a Finals effort every single night just to have a mere chance at a W.
