Will be relying on Kornet/Queta/Tillman.

Tillman is alright. Kornet has one nba skill and it’s catching oops.

We never really gelled or got into any rhythm down the stretch hence our seeding, so no things wouldn't of been much different even with Butler.

The only times this year when I hate my team is when Jason Tatum starts in with his selfish ISO ball. Pisses me off.

This Heat team is cooked, they just have zero offense. But Rozier might of got hot and helped as well. Even having Duncan and Richardson available with them would help. They need to make some changes this offseason regardless. Time to add some size and another scoring threat which I've been begging for years now. But somehow we kept going on miracle runs and Pat would be like lets run it back lol.
