It is simply wayyyy less pressure on the rest of the players if they can concentrate more on their natural position defensively and offensively. We’ve been pleating this for a long time now, how size can alter the game and frees the rest. Less tired players and more enjoyable. It may not work all game, depending on matchups, but it will work every game, and at least it will take the opposition out of a comfort zone, and into a mistake/perfect type game approach or else.

Ware/Robinson are so vital because they are then only 2 players out of the key 8 rotation guys that don't complicate the game at all, Bam/Herro/Jimmy/JJJ/Terry/Jovic all complicate the game on offense to some degree and having 5 of them on the floor at the same times is not good.

Ware and Robinson are those key link pieces which is why the game flows so much better with them on the floor. JJJ will benefit most if the Heat play big because that will allow him to go vs smaller players rather than large wings and hen will cook smaller guys in the paint

Too skinny. Jokic has like 60 pounds on him. I wouldnt have mind but I see why Spo didn't. Jokic would have ate him up. Jokic ate Bam up. He's the best in the world. Ware needs to bulk up a little in the summer.

You have Bam as the primary defender on Jokic and Ware sagging off either Braun or Gordon making it difficult for both to finish at the rim.

change the avi 3ball


May change it to Herro
If u don't want 2b here, the way things work, u don't like it, then don't b here. U have 2 stand on something. If Miami ain't standing on something, they become alot of these organizations trying 2 find their identity. This is the culture, bro -Wade

It would move Bam and by virtue of that, highsmith back to his natural position, but not Herro. Herro is still a SG. While I’m not downplaying Herro’s ability to create and facilitate off the dribble, he’d be even more maximized with a PG running mate to get him easy looks too.

I know it’s everyone’s hope that Jokic and I guess also JJJ can be point forwards but we still need someone to steady things and set up the offense, especially when we’re getting a lot of ball pressure. My hope is that with a Jimmy trade we can either get someone to replace his ability to score (right now we only have Tyler to dependably score unfortunately) or a scoring PG/combo guard that can facilitate with his ability to break down the D by getting into the paint.
