Big test for us.

Interested to see if LaMelo can bounce back after an off game Vs the Magic.

Be nice if TRo and PJ were good to go.

According to Zach Lowe, PJ is one of the best backup centers in the NBA and we need him. I mean I guess it makes sense defensively, but yes we could use him back for this game.

Miami has some old players so our best bet is to run the **** out of them so they get annoyed and they rush bad shots

Not sure who Alberto de Roa or what a Global Rating is, but pretty impressive company.

I want to see more of Richards. And I cannot believe I just said that. But if that’s how he plays with serviceable players…I want to see more of him.

Yes please.

I'll update this thread.

Also I'm just pulling for us not to embarrass ourselves in this game, not a high threshold.

We can probably remove the game number from the GT titles as well if it makes things easier and neater - and gives more room for the game time.

I only started using the game number last season because the condensed schedule and amount of times we were playing the same teams in a short amount of time was making it hard to follow!!

Watching the bulls and we really f'd up not giving Caruso that Oubre money, he would have been a perfect fit here

I picked him up in the late rounds of a fantasy league, he has started on fire!

That’s a poorly built team.

We don't have our Miami killer anymore with Monk gone. Hopefully, Rozier will suit up and be ready, we will need his poise and shot-making to beat the Heat on the road.

I'll be watching with an open mind tonight not expecting a win but hoping for one. We passed the Nets test when I didn't think we'd win so a win in Miami would be great to go 5-1.

If I'm not mistaken this is our 3rd game in last 4 on the road. Be really nice to take this one go back home for a few days before that huge west coast trip
