Anyways, I still put this on Spo. Ware was a +26. You cannot teach size. Stop overcompensating for Bam and use logic.

Magic started going on a like 8-0 run in the third we put Ware in and it went back to 20 we took Ware out and magic went on the run again. Ware made that C look small. Once he went to the bench that Magic C scrub had like 5 offensive rebounds at the end

Bam needs to go to a team like Hou or San Antonio in the summer when he's eligible to be traded.

Mia in return can get a package of picks and/or young players.

Mine as well suck with Ware and at least see what his potential is next season.

This is 110% on Spolstra. You can only blame the coach when a team loses like this. Another thing is the Heat still had 3 time outs when there was only a few minutes left in the game, which means Spolstra only called one time out during the collapse.

This is also a problem I have with the timeout philosophy that coaches have. They should use the timeouts early so they don't need to use them late. If I was a head coach, I would be criticized alot for not having any timeouts left at the end of games. I don't care. I'd rather avoid getting into a situation where I need them instead of saving them for that situation.

Although, I wonder if timeouts really make a difference. Would a run have stopped whether or not a timeout was called? That would be an interesting expirment to do. 2 evenly matched teams play 10 games against each other. In 5 games there's no time outs. You compare the games with and without timeouts. Maybe runs in the timeoutless games were longer because there were no timeouts.

We’ve gotta get rid of Bam before it’s too late, if not for Heat Culture he’s off brand Joel Anthony with a durag

We're going nowhere with this team. We can and should rebuild. But we know Pat will not do it.

Waiting on Twitter to get the statistics of the team’s defensive ratings with Bam on/off the court to show he isn’t to blame for team’s failure.

Stay tuned!
For a long time it gave me nightmares,witnessing an injustice like that.It’s a constant reminder of just how unfair this world can be.I can still hear them taunting him, Silly Rabbit tricks are for kids.I mean why couldn’t they just give him some cereal?

This is why we suck. We can’t recover any more from Spo’s non sense. We haven’t been the same since PJ Tucker left. The front office also sucks at disregarding the 4 spot or has been brain washed by analytics

Shot selection is terrible without a proper ball handler on the court.

Drives me crazy when I hear the local pundits either hint at or blatantly say that Mia can move on from Jimmy now that Herro's has emerged.

Completely fail to realize why Herro's playing better.

Should’ve sold high on Tyler after his rookie season

Should’ve sold high on Bam after his 1st season as a starter

Should’ve sold high on Jaime last summer

Should’ve sold high on Jimmy after year 1

Carter got thrown out and Issac didn't do much, it was mostly the 59 points 2 guards in KCP and Anthony put up that was the issue, not really sure how a PF would have stopped that. Miami needed better defense on the 2 guards who did well. I'm fine saying Spoelstra is part of the problem by not putting Highsmith out there on Anthony in the 4th.

Return to Miami Heat
