Tis a beautiful day here, just got my coffee. Have a good Sunday heat brethren. We should be proud how we’ve been fighting. Hassan will be gone this off-season and Winnie has shown his true character. Things will only trend upwards going forward wtv happens this season was a success .

My 3 thoughts on what this series has shown:

1) This Heat team is a team of role players. Everyone must fill their role, or the team cannot win. This creates an obviously thin margin of error.

2) Hassan has failed to fill the role Spo has established for him and the team cannot win without that role. I’m sure Spo wants more from Hassan than just setting picks and waiting in the corner. Some more rebounding and defense would be nice.

3) Spobot has shown time and time again that his rotations are solidified. He cannot compute change during the game. This is all well when coaches do not have pieces to bring unplanned chaos to the mix, but when they do bring those changes, like JJ Barea or Patty Mills bringing small and fast offense, or even Anderson from the sixers bringing 9 minutes of intense physical defense, Spo continues to show an inability to instantly counter. Even 5 minutes of McGruder on Simmons when the team is showing fatigue could allow other players to have some rest for example. Depth was this Heat team’s strong point and Spo does not seem to take advantage.

I guess it's only fitting that the OP who started the season is the OP who ends it.

I got complete faith in Iggs getting us this win.

Did a decent job defensively on Biid FWIW, need to manage rotations better and hope for larger margin for error(Whom are we kidding, Spo's not changing his rotations)... Iss all we have. Push for sebem. Other teams have, why not?

Other than that, look forward to seeing Dion next SZN and maybe a more wing orientated team with McGruder/DJJ/Dion taking Elington/Wade/???(Dragic/TJ?)'s mins. Summer shenanigans should be grandiose

Hold on

Long Live Winnie. Mamba siempre

Should be grandiose indeed. Heat have the pieces to make a deal. I would not be surprised to see a deal like TJ and JRich for a disgruntled star. Especially with Dion coming back and Winslow emerging. No player is really untouchable this offseason.

Disgruntled star would be the hope but I'd guess that we'd get much less. I'd love some capspace to go after either Randle or Hezo or a good decent draft pick to go after an Anfernee Simons/Shai-Gilgeous. Possibilities are out there

Does anyone know if Dion's on social media anywhere? Can't find his IG and I'm not on Snap
