I believe in his skillset

What?

Mitchell's has a TS% of .612 with a 119 ORTG
Herro has a TS% of .554 with a 107 ORTG

Ok ok Donovan is better but what's Mitchell's contract in comparison?? Herro can still improve too

Ps. Head to head, Herro's metrics stack up.

Huh, a guy who's always been a starter and basically the #1 option which means defenses are scheming to stop him as their top priority vs Herro who only this year is a starter and even then, having 2 guys in front of him being schemed against more than himself.

Mitchell is on basically the same contract Herro just signed

How do they stack up head to head lol?

At this point get Lowry back and play Duncan, bench Gabe and Strus. We actually have money invested in the other 2 and need something out of them.

We should’ve moved Gabe and Strus at the deadline for whatever we could get.

Possibly Ja and Adams missing for the Heat game but it didn't matter last time.

Nice to see Jovic back on the court. Just another body that Spo will never play in the end though.

Depresses me thinking about how much more interesting we’d be with Jovic and Yurtseven getting burn.

Unpopular take :

ATM Jovic > Love.

He's taller, can pass, great IQ, can shoot. Better defender. Just lacks the experience.

Zeller and Love are playing fine, but Omer and Jovic could be just as impactful if they get the burn (they won't).

There's nothing i hate more then seeing the team sucking WHILE playing washed rental players like K.Love.

If we're gonna suck, at least develop for the future

Gabriel Vincent last 5 games: 5 points, 2 assists, 25% shooting from the field.

Maximus Strus last 5 games: 8 points, 31% shooting from three.

Can't believe we've gotten to the point where d-leaguers are part of our starting group and rotation on a consistent basis.

D-leaguers/non drafted players are not an excuse at this point, this organization has picked d-leaguers over other players so it's a FO decision. Dragic could have been acquired last year and this year and Miami passed on him to not take minutes from Vincent. They gave Duncan 90 million over 5 years and a team like the Lakers signed both K.Nunn (although he got injured) and M.Monk for a total of 20 million over 2 years.

The problem is the organization coming up with the decision from the FO that lesser players are "good" because they're doing good enough in Miami's system and those decisions have gotten the FO to overpay on lesser talent. I'm still stunned Miami overpaid Robinson as a one trick pony when Miami could acquire other 3pt players at a cheaper cost in money.

Once again, THE FRONT OFFICE IS THE REASON WHY THE ROSTER IS FULL OF NON DRAFTED PLAYERS ARE IN MIAMI, it's not like they didn't have other options. The FO looked at the other options and said no, we like these guys.

I’m surprised it’s that high. I don’t think I’ve seen My Cousin Vinny make a single shot over the past 5 games.

This offseason, should Miami to go after Zion with only Bam as the only untouchable player for Miami?

Post #1753 » by **MettaWorldPanda** » Thu Mar 9, 2023 5:02 pm

Should have just kept Yurt with the Skyforce to twin tower with Jovic. If i’m Yurt i’m bolting for the first decent offer. How can he trust he’s going to get a fair shake from this coaching staff? Guy was breaking double/double records last year keeping us afloat while Bam was gone and then was relegated to obscurity.

I’ve always said if I’m trading Jimmy I better be getting back a young all star that fits Bams timeline, both Zion and Ingram do. Idk though, that’s super high risk high reward and I’m not dumping all of our future assets for him so it would have to be Jimmy. I want to see Jimmy win a championship at minimum here and retire here though

carnageta · Post #1757 » by **carnageta** » Thu Mar 9, 2023 7:40 pm

4 years of Jimmy Butler and the best we could do to help was get him 35 YO Kyle Lowry. Effing lol

My daydream was Butler to the Pels for Ingram, 23 pick and future pick.

Future roster would look better by a large margin.
