I don't know how to fix all the problems....but, I damn sure know the Heat can hit FTs.

Start there....Spo needs to demand better FT shooting.

Bam and Tyler are having way too many off nights at the FT line.

Read on Twitter

Duncan averages 17-3-4 as a starter on 12 shots a night, 8 3 point attempts at 46% and the Heat are 12-5 when he starts, 12-15 when he comes off the bench. Free Duncan

Don't need a high fga player. There is no more fga to spread around. But hey you want this fantasy of having a team with 10 players taking 15 plus fga. Enjoy watching a team with bad chemistry

Look at all these teams in the NBA getting bigger front lines. We keeping going smaller. Our defense is under some serious stress

I’m guessing this is directed of me, no I have a crazy fantasy of rooting for a team that can score over 100 points in an nba game in 2024 where the league average is 115 PPG :lol:

Duncan has had his opportunities and has done nothing recently. Regression was coming for him. He’s not the answer. Easy cop out to keep piling on Herro when we have other issues that are getting severely exposed right now

I think if we start Duncan tonight we win just way better for spacing

The PF market is a barren waste land. Right now Kelly Olynyk is making the most sense just due to sheer size and ability to play with Bam. DFS also being brought up but won’t be cheap

This random unorganized basketball where everyone taking equal shots is trash la fitness basketball.

I have 5 years worth of data to back this brother, Herro is not the guy you all think he is.

It’s fine to move to the bench where you and the team excel. Pop just moved Keldon Johnson to the bench and he’s coming off a better scoring season than Herro has ever had.

This team plays better and flows so much better with a 3 point specialist at the 2. Herro is not going to adjust his game like we’re all praying for so the alternative is to start the guy who excels playing the style we need

Wait Jerami Grant only makes $28M a year? Why in the world did I think he was making $36M a year starting this season and going up yearly lol?

Where’s Rex when I need him, I’m ready to push the agenda

This team need to find the right role playing glue guys. Guys he can do things at a high level that will make the system work outside of scoring. The scorers on this team are trying to do too many different responsibilities outside of scoring.

I do agree with Twix that we really don’t need some type of prolific scoring PF but a PF that knows how to do the things that made PJ Tucker and Jae Crowder click so well here. We need a banger who can hit 3’s.

I agree but we need a schematics/hierarchy change in the offense as well and simply for guys to just make shots. Shot profile tinkering for Bam and Herro as well.

I do think Terry is going to help this nonsense we just saw yet again tonight, he’s just got to get comfortable first. Probably not tomorrow, maybe Saturday in the loss at New York though
