Butler is too fragile to be diving at knees

Nice quarter by Bam too.

10/4 with 2 blocks. Most of his work near the basket.

Miami is executing well with the space provided.

Robinson on cuts, Lowry and now Herro finding Bam in deep position.

The pass to Butler along the sideline, he routinely does that which sometimes ends up being a TO for the other player. It sometimes creates a wasted possession and is a big reason his ORTG is lower then you'd think it should be, just for a normal pass.

What I'm loving seeing is that not only is Bam getting easy buckets he's also being very aggressive when he gets the ball in his hands.

I like this alternative 2nd unit. Get Lowry the sub midway through the first and back in for the last 2 mins.

Lowry
Herro
Strus
Morris
Dedmon

I can live with that.

Any chance of Lowry having a career high in assists per game this year, his highest season is currently 8.7.

BTW, Lowry has 7 assists in 9 1/2 minutes.

7 dimes and 4 steals, charges drawn, easy offense.

Yeah, Lowry makes a difference.

Duncan putting the ball on the floor for drives, and using the backdoor cut, will hopefully continue to open up his three ball.

34 points in the 1st quarter.

Defense just a little shaky but when you're this good on offense, it's acceptable.
