We need to improve our defense. Need to hold teams to 0-10% shooting to have a chance.

Lol

For some reason we shot the poorest vs the two worst defensive teams that we faced, the Knicks and the Nuggets.

Miami ended up shooting 34% from 3 for the series, which is what Miami shot during the reg season.

Pointless tweet. He played 27 mins out of an available 240. Zeller ain't the reason we lost

Makes me wish Miami could land the Bucks Lopez to replace him!

Can you?

Bam's defensive impact was pretty massive, he had a good game overall. Also got whacked with no call a few times which hurts his efficiency.

Overstated. Jokic moved him around like a blow up dummy.

Murray blew past him on the perimeter in a key possession down the stretch.

Moreover, he did nothing on offense in the second half but miss 6 shots in the paint.

Jokic abused Anthony Davis so badly they had to put LeBron on him instead, not sure why you think getting scored on by Jokic means anything.

Move whoever to get another superstar, outside of Jimmy and bam

That Zeller minute will live on in all of us

Excited for Jovic next year. Hope we keep him.

Jimmy’s still our guy. Still worthy of being in the rafters. It is clear though that we need a 3rd star now more than ever. Send out Herro, Lowry, whatever it takes to get it done

Literally the most skilled center ever :lol:

He just had one of the greatest playoff runs we’ve ever seen

Having Dwyane Wade and later LeBron James at their peaks on this franchise has really warped the way some of you view what a star player is normally like. Wade would be the best player in the majority of team's history if we're talking peak, and LeBron is...LeBron.

I don't remember who he was but somebody called it that Bam was going to be invisible in the 2nd half.

As I've said a million times, Bam is not a #1 or even #2 option. Ideally he's not even a 3 unless you can get a big time scorer like Dame as your #1 alongside Jimmy as a #2. He's a defensive anchor but limited offensively and we should stop trying to force the issue.

Its like trying to make Herro into a defensive stopper. Sure you can train him up to be decent on that end and not a sieve, but he'll never be a lockdown defender. Same for Bam. He can get you a bucket here or there with that little short jumper in the paint. But he's not a go to guy. We need to find that in trades. And we should be willing to include him if packaging guys like Herro can't get it done alone (I know we won't, but we should).
