Keys to failure are getting a lead then turn the ball over for the rest of the game.

Make sure the other team has the mismatch.

Send out Snow White and the 7 dwarves to play the 4th.

Draw up plays for your 5th and 6th best players.

Dont let go of the rope.

Lets go Heat!

If we don’t intend to use Bam offensively going forward as has been very apparent these last 2 games after an elite 20 game stretch I prefer we rest him and continue racking up the Ls

He just needs one more game to qualify for finishing 4th in DPOY.

If we lose this one and Monday night at the Knicks we will be the 10th seed as long as the Bulls go 1-1 against the Rockets and Jazz. The tank is gaining steam

Gotta start playing Keshad. Need someone not scared to shoot corner 3s, set screens and rebound.

I’ve been banging the door down for Keshad to get some play time. He would bring some much needed rugged energy to this team.

I’m curious what Spo was trying to accomplish in benching Ware and Mitchell and if he got the answers he wanted and will continue to roll with this going forward

Mitchell was solid off the bench and is probably what his long term role is here. Herro and Duncan had some success early on this year starting. It also allowed us to phase out Rozier. JJJ and HH are not the answer at the 4 spot. Probably would have kept Ware starting and used Anderson as the 4/5 off the bench.

I’m curious to see what happens for this one, Memphis starts Edey as well as JJJ

I think he should start Anderson with that starting unit to give it another ball handler. Ware and Keshad Johnson should be the backups off the bench. Slo Mo atleast gives us a 6’9 body that helps us down low instead of JJJ and HH at the 4. You traded for him now use him to see if he can add any value.

C Bam 6’9 C Ware 7’1
PF Slo Mo 6’9 PF K Johnson 6’7
SF Wiggins 6’7 SF HH or JJ
SG Robinson 6’7 SG Larrson SG Christopher
PG Herro 6’5 PG Mitchell PG Stevens

I would actually call up Christopher and see if he can add some scoring punch behind Herro as the backup SG. Think he has a lot more scoring chops over Larrson.

Not only is he not utilizing him and running any offense for him, but it looks like he's fallen back into his small ball nonsense once again. I didn't watch the full game so I'm not sure if they shared the court at all. But looking at the minutes Bam 33, Ware 15 = 48 so he's back to 1 or the other. Now Ware's minutes are coming at the expense of Bams. Guys like Wiggins played 37, Herro 38, Mitchell 35...which would be all good but too little too late now. Bam should be playing those minutes to in games that matter which he acted like this one did. And Ware needs more minutes, you gotta play them together more. Bam wants to play with a big, this is all wasted time they could be continuing to work it out. Spo is just mind boggling it's really hard not to laugh at the insanity.

Yeah I'm hoping we finally get a good starting PG somehow in the offseason and keep Mitchell as our backup defensive stopper for years to come.

DOM getting results! In our last 10 games only the Nets at 1-9 and 76ers at 2-8 have been playing better than us in the Eastern Conference. And now we're only 1 game back of the Bulls and 5.5 behind the Raptors!

This is my role on this forum. Get us that top 4 pick and then see what fate has in store for us.

I will carry this burden for the good of us all!
