The Spo Situation. (Dipogate)
Posted: Mon Apr 11, 2022 2:47 pm
Oh, my beloved Spo. We've been through so much together. The Wade GOAT years, the Big 3, the Bosh and Whiteside debacle, and now the Butler/Bam/Herro ball years.
If you've noticed, likely not, I've been saying you’re now the greatest coach in the league. You consistently get the most out of your players and the job you’ve done this season has been amazing. You will worst case be a finalist for COY.
I do have one complaint though (outside of spamming Bam DHOs), I think this season has proven that you are prioritizing philosophy over roster maximization.
What does that mean? Basically, that you have a system that you are trying to fit players into instead of maximizing the players that you have on the roster and creating a system to get the most out of them.
Is this because of Dipo?
Yeah.
It just makes little sense to me how this dude is riding the pine. The team is struggling to score in the clutch and elite clutch play has proven to win in this league. Easy baskets, great playmaking for others, great defense, great 3 level scoring, veteran leadership, etc all relieve pressure from guys like Jimmy, Bam, and Herro by opening things up way more for them and having another guy out there who can get his own basket at will.
I know you prefer speed, spacing and gang rebounding and Dipo adds to all of these. We’ve all seen it, i know you have too.
(And Dipo can shoot, you know Dipo can shoot it)
Has a team without elite clutch play and 2 way scoring talent ever won anything? You've got Dipo there and he had success...i just don't get it. Why? Whyyyyy?
Dipo just put up the greatest stat line we’ve seen in a Heat jersey since Jimmy in the 2020 finals. That has to count for something.
The game before our first 40-10 regular season game since Wade in 2011 Dipo did this off the bench. Willed this team to a crucial win in Toronto to lock up the 1st seed while displaying his great defense, 3 level scoring, explosiveness, and clutch play.
Gabe is not the answer, Spo! Our ceiling is so much higher with Dipo fully integrated into the rotation, you have a week or so before the playoffs. That’s plenty of time for an elite coach like you to figure this out and make it work.
Free Dipo!! Dipogate is real!!
Anywho, good luck this post-season! Steal a ship!
