Literally just come out locked in and play to our season averages in game 4 and we win the game. Just an embarrassing effort from the entire group outside of Dipo

Is Bam afraid of Robert Williams?

Let's not pretend that disparity is normal. It absolutely is not. This is why I have Heat in 7, in anticipation of an 'extended' series. A gm7 is huge for the NBA.

Actually that stat line looks right. We don't really have a player capable of putting the ball on floor and drive to the basket consistently to draw fouls. Oladipo is somehow the only one who may be able to do it but he's lost a step.

I'd start Herro next game If time lord plays. It'll force them to get out of that drop coverage and maybe it'll get him going earlier. Or it'll tell us that he doesn't need to be on floor.

Miami - 14 (6 because take fouls at the end)
Boston - 30

Game 4 free throws:

Miami - 14
Boston - 38

Total in Boston:

Miami - 28
Boston - 68

That’s just absolutely ridiculous and rigged as fuxk


I said it before we ain't winning much if it stays like that, although honestly last game was a waste bc Boston shot so poorly we mighta had a chance if we didn't shoot so damn bad in first Q.

You realize Jimmy gets to the line almost more than anyone in the league right?

Shouldn’t be


certainly plays like one, blocks left and right. He is the one disrupting our offensive plan.

Bam got the ball plenty of times last game, he was just to his old ways looking to pass, at some point you stop giving him the ball if all he will do is look for a handoff. Williams is a 6'9 player with a 7'6 wingspan. When he is in the game Miami aint doing c rap in the paint.

If I told you all we’d be 2-2 headed back to Miami after we lost game 2 you would be hype. Now that we are, it’s like the sky is falling lol

Like i said at some point you stop giving him the ball if all he is doing is looking for a handoff at the top of the key, plus he did not play the whole 4th quarter i believe.

My starting 5 tmr would be:

Lowry
Oladipo
Butler
Pj
Bam

And im not going beyond the 8th man on the rotation.

Dedmon and Caleb are DNP. Our starters got to get ready for a 42 minute game.. it is what it is.. this is crunch time..

I dont think we are that basic here, i think its more about the demeanor we showed coming into a game in the Eastern Finals with a good chance to get the series 3-1 and puting them against the ropes, very worrisome trend we are showing here, this is not the first time we look disengaged, but happening in the Eastern Finals is really a bad sign.

i dont think the sky is falling yet, but it will be if we come out with the same level of energy as last game.

It's how we lost that's standing out. 11 points in a quarter.
