Tyler's the most versatile of the bunch. He also isn't scared. He knows his game and is confident. Can defend, can shoot, can dunk/finish.... what's not to like?! Energy guy for sure. Napier/Ennis need to step their game up, Zoran might get his opportunity, don't know. He can be a back up SF as well, but this team is a bit loaded already.

He will get his opportunity one day though, especially if he plays defense in practice.

I know Zoran doesn't have many points scored in the NBA, why doesn't he get more playing time? I'd love to see what he's got.

Because of his size probably. Needs to bulk up in the offseason. His three point shot could use some work too. I'm confident he can be a big part of our rotation sometime in the next two years.

It's really Because our coach is afraid of playing young guys. He feels much more comfterable playing vets that suck because it's safer for him.

Why didn't TJ play the last few games? he was good every time he got a chance, but Rio is got playing time regardless of performance level because he's been around for years.

It's a lazy, cowardly way to coach. It deflect the Blame off the coach but hurts the team.

Oh, I definitely agree with that. I just think that Zoran's body could use some work. In Europe, he used his speed and strength, along with his hustle, to get the points. I don't think he' stronger and faster than majority of the NBA though. Next year ...

TJ is the best rookie we have right now!
love his energy, his attitude and athleticism

TJ is so much better than Shabazz and Ennis this poll is a waste of time.

The play of these guys last night is why I stop short of calling for this coach to be fired. I see the talent and potential on this team, they just need REAL playing opportunities, not just token minutes.....

They don't have to repeat last night performance, just last nights effort and given REAL PLAYING opportunities

I'm optimistic.....

I agree Zoran has potential. But as an undrafted rookie, he is not gonna get any minutes simply by sitting on the bench here. He has to pay his dues in the D-League. Period.

I think that's a given, yes. What puzzles me is why don't they send him down now. Our SG rotation is loaded with Wade, Dragic, Rio and TJ.

Suns had an even bigger logjam at wings and didn't send him down for a substantial time either (as far as I've been informed). What gives?

TJ has been a sandout since summer, Ennis too but the way they are playing Ennis now is now how He was allowed to play before. Not sure who is to blame for that.

Zoran not enough info to evaluate on this team
Bazz has been bad since the summer, never turned the corner, also not playing his game. He tried in the summer but his shot wasnt falling. He sets up others off his shot but with the Heat he rarely shoots. Who is to blame for that not sure.

what surprises me is how many heat fans know so much about Zoran's game!

I confess that I only know him from youtube videos - perhaps 15 minutes altogether - and the short appearances for the Heat which showed nothing at all. Aside from that, I know nothing about him other than what Spo says about him. I don't think that's enough to send him to the D-League without seeing him play.

Zoran was linked to the Heat when he announced he wanted to come to the NBA before he went to Phoenix. I think we started watching tape on him around that time. Plus there was the championship game footage and buzz

So how many minutes of Zoran play have you seen?
