We'll see.

It was a great year, regardless.

Spo will adjust? GTFOH with that nonsense!

Like Tyler his a 9% higher usage than Bam and Bam is averaging more PPG and scoring way more efficiently than Tyler on 5 less shot attempts a game. Why in the world is that not reversed? You need that inside out game.

Bam is having his most efficient scoring playoffs ever, he’s having his most impactful playoffs ever despite the lack of scoring and playmaking from him due to a huge decrease in usage and shot attempts. Just imagine if his offense was just at his season averages at least.

This guy has been neutered in the offense right now and I’m not pointing any fingers I’m saying as a group they need to get together and figure it out because this is unacceptable.

He’s averaging 14 on 8 shots, give this dude 15 shots a game and he’s giving you 23-25 a night easily. That’s the exact scoring punch Jimmy needs next to him and a scoring punch that would make the team better.

Take a shot away from strus, take one from Gabe, take 1 or 2 from Jimmy, take 3 from Herro. There are ways to make up for this and give you a more efficient scoring punch next to Jimmy.

It almost feels like Jimmy Spo and bam got together before the playoffs and decided Jimmy would carry the offense and Bam would carry the defense and everyone else would just fall in line and fill their roles because both of them have been elite on those ends of the court in these playoffs.

Just makes no sense to me.

That’s it. You’re not a Heat fan. You’re a Bam fan, period. Best playoffs. Most efficient. IT DOESN’T MATTER IF WE ARE LOSING AND HE DOES NOT SEEM TO CARE OR SEEM TO WANT TO CHANGE!

I love how the Heat GM signed Yurt to a two year contract and Spo immediately shelves him for life.

Yes way to simplify the logic so a 1st grader can follow your simpleminded construct.

Have you even read YURTGATE?

That was horrible to hear. I can't imagine how the players felt.

After how they played, I hope they felt humiliated and wanting to go out for blood. Those players don’t deserve to have their feelings cared about. They’ve been coddled enough. Man up. This is the Miami Heat goddamn it! This is Heat Culture and those clowns, other than Jimmy, were anything but Heat Culture. I hope they all have nightmares of those chants but in reality I’m sure Bam was out partying and Herro was out cheating on his girl. The HEAT are above these players and I care about the franchise, b*tches, I mean, players come and go.

Boy we are in trouble


Al Horford is really the key for them.

This is the same guy that locked up Embiid too in the playoffs and then you add Robert Williams to the mix.

Bam is a scared kid being bullied by 2 chads out there. If we only had Myers Leonard still :lol:

Actually they're out there switching. Bam had guards on him all night under the basket. We didn't exploit it.

But yes I hate facing Horford for this reason.

Man, this is the truth. Herro finally gets a good defensive play and they take it away. bull. That's not why we lost though.

We’re a good team. We’re better than we’ve shown tonight. Team should be pissed after dropping this one at home. We’ll be going into a hostile environment to get the W, but we’ve got enough to win this series. Just need to play better and execute on both sides of the ball.


This is where I'm at too. We weren't as good as the 3rd quarter of the first game and we're not as bad as last night. Without Tucker it's going to be hard, but I expect a reaction. We have two games in Boston to get one win and get HCA back, but we can also get 7 wins and just finish this up. 7 wins. That's how close we are, and I'd rather have Butler than anyone else right now to get it done.

I was less confident last night when I started it after hearing about Tucker. I had doubts about the team early on, but they earned my trust. I would be a hypocrite if I didn't back them now, when they need me, and I might have a thousand marks against me, but this I can do. Next man up. Whatever. I don't want to just win. I would like to squeeze every bit of green ochre from their spleens. Smiling all the time. I would post another gif but you probably get it.

Bruh WHAT?! I’m literally saying in the post that Spo needs to use him more offensively and Bam needs to be more assertive himself because we know what he’s capable of, we’ve seen it before and it would make the TEAM better if Jimmy has a reliable scoring punch next to him. How is this any different than you all crying for Bam to shoot more?

Don’t talk to me about being a Heat fan, you constantly **** on the Heat from top to bottom. You **** on Jimmy all season. Bam can get the **** out of here tomorrow if it brings in someone like Embiid because the TEAM would be better. Bam isn’t even my favorite player on the Heat lmao

don't think Rob and Horford are much better than theis and kanter ... it is it's just that Boston defense works a lot better and bam was not as corrupted as he is now... he still knew he was not an undersized Center but a nimble power forward
