Miami just got jumbo-sized without compromising the schematic benefits that they've always prioritized in Spo's systems.

Buckle up

Ware/Bam/Jovic should be the front court 3 man rotation no questions asked. No more Highsmith please. Play him at the 2/3

They should put ware in starting lineup. Way more effective and bam now has help on defense. Butler looking low energy. Should put Jaquez or Jovic in.

I knew the Ware and Bam lineup would be revolutionary but dam lol. Bam has so much space to initiate offense it’s almost like he doesn’t know what to do with himself.

This is amazing

Bam looked so damn comfortable doing what old Bam does. Let Ware camp out for wide open 3’s

Bam-Ware in game together makes one question that approach. But, typically Wemby shouldnt be a 9 3PA per game guy right now IMO. Prioritize more looks in the paint when the rest of team is providing the spacing.

There’s not a better game to showcase the size than against this massive freak of nature Wemby, no need to resort back to the norm to start the 2nd half

Spurs held to 2 points last 9 minutes of second quarter. Is that the bam ware effect?

96 minutes of Bam-Ware-Jovic frontcourt rotation is the future. Hopefully it's becoming the present now, too.

Defense, rebounding, three point looks all skyrocketed with Ware/Bam. Now imagine with a functional PG

And it was literally a fluke bank in Vassell chased down after he shot it because he thought it had no chance of going in lol

Why does Spo always make chit so hard. Waited till we got to .500 to implement the obvious.

Suddenly Bam can hunt for turnovers and play help D that isn't just covering for others lapses. Dude is always one of the league leaders in space covered over the course of a season. Now he can use that range to wreak havoc instead of just cleanup.

So Spo just ran the Nunn, Butler, Robinson, Bam and Leonard scheme with Rozier, Butler, Robinson, Bam and Ware. The only difference was Butler was playing the role of Nunn in the corner and Rozier was playing the role of Butler. lol

You don't buy into the idea that Miami is bringing along Ware with a priority on developing his game for the longterm? The list of responsibilities every player on the floor has is never equal. Ware needed to start with a focused set, prove capable, and expand from there. Feel like this staff deserves the benefit of doubt (doubt that is paired with a lot less info than they're operating with) when it comes to developing their draft picks
