defense was fine. They fought defensively but are just too undersized. Offense was crap outside of Butler. Spo two bad decisions didn't help. Not subbing Butler in at the 8 min mark and playing Struss over Duncan,

And never will be. We gotta come to terms with it. That’s why we need a real front court scorer or a real defender/finisher to make up for his shortcomings at least on one end.


Bam was a preseason superstar tho

We are going to be 1-5 believe that. The team that got Jerami Grant is going to wax us and then the Golden buzz saw

Lets keep creeping to the bottom of the standings with the pacers, magic and the 76rs.

Game makes me reminisce about getting Bam his extension ASAP so we didn't have the money to sign Lowry outright in free agency. Good times.

Formula and data.
Duncan played 30 seconds over his estimated playing time.

Im not gonna overreact like some of ya'll. We won't be in the lottery. We would have won this game had we shoot average from 3. The team just has a huge hole at the 4 which will likely cost us homecourt in the playoffs it not addressed. We knew PJ had to be replaced and not doing it is malpractice. We need to do something asap to fix that. Either sign someone like Stanley Johnson for the shortterm or go for a trade. Caleb/Struss/Duncan/Herro shouldn't be playing the 4.

Stupid to switch without resistance and allow Siakim to go iso against shrimp defenders at will.

I'll always remember back in like 2013 or something when Mike Miller was going off for like 4 quick 3s in the 2nd quarter of a playoff game. And his back was all jacked up so bad he'd have to lay on the floor rather than sit on the bench, and Spo took him out when he picked up his 3rd foul instead of riding his streak while he could provide it. Just ridiculous to take him out there and cool him off lol.

Spo not burning a TO to get Jimmy in while they made that run was criminal.

Exactly! All these regular season games don’t matter. The Heat just need to run it back this season, but instead of missing that shot to make the Finals, they need to make it. Easy fix. /s
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?
