Why unnecessary? He's the only playable PG on the roster, I'd say it's been necessary and about time Spo realized it so he doesn't play Rozier. And 37 minutes isn't anything crazy. All our starters need to play minutes like that more regularly.

unnecessary because guys need rest even if its a minute or two. 37 mins is cray work, average starter minutes is 28-30 which is about right. Other guys need to also need experience. Anyway Davion was nice and has exceeded expectations with his shooting.
1. Herro 2. Bol Bol 3. Seko 4. Bruno
unless we trade up for Barrett or trade down for PJ Washington

Not to me, 37 minutes is nothing here or there. That's a 5:30 minute break each half, the dude's 26 years old and just came off a game where he only played 24 minutes. Durant and Irving are both averaging about 37 minutes now in their 30s, Mitchell can handle it and who needs experience Rozier? That's the only other PG on the team. Mitchell needs to get acclimated here himself.

Shut him down

Seriously, why are we playing an injured Bam for.. we really want to get that play-in? Shut him down till hes healthy, this season is a big fat L and risking further injury will make it worse


Sit him out, fall further down the standings to better our pick, and put yourself in the best possible position this summer or the next to build a contender again. Seems like an easy choice tbh but sounds like he’s fighting against them telling him to sit so it might be on Bam

Wide open shots finally fell. No shortage of open looks.


Its been open all four games. Defenses have been crashing the paint to stop Wiggins, Ware and Bam and only defending Herro on the perimeter. The corners are left wide open


Hints of process showing promise. Now Miami just needs to continue to build up the personnel to complement the process and keep developing the youth.

So ... Is Davion/Herro/Bam the new Big 3 with Ware and Jovic as the x-factors?

Not sure why you are complaining. Every years it’s the same telltale.

Davion is not a big anything. Just hoping he can become a quality role player

Wiggins played with a sprained ankle and didnt move well. He went out in the 4th because of pain if you noticed.

He is iffy for the game against Indiana.

Thank you for your service.

I’m sure his 1 of 7 for 5 points was the main reason they won last night
