Probably. Even with Miami probably losing this series, they have had two amazing runs where they overachieved recently.

Bam doesn’t exist. But I guess he meant someone like him.

He would be a massive upgrade over Bam for the Heat.


As Bam is so soft compared to someone like PJ who is a dog.
Reggie Jackson is amazing and a killer in the clutch that's all.

I would normally think of this as looking too much into his comments, but for some reason, I could see him angling to reunite with Jimmy in Miami.

Bam is an incredible defender. Most versatile in the league guarding 1-5 but goddamn his offense stinks like poo poo

its very easy to take him out of a series on offense. Brook Lopez sonned him on both ends last year. Now Timelord made him look like a g leaguer

I hate the oversimplified "needs another star" jargon. But I do think Miami's greatest need is another volume offensive option to lighten the load for Jimmy.

I'm not even that high on Herro but they really could have used him tonight.

He's right, Miami lacks a third guy that can put pressure on a defense. Doesn't really need to be a star though.

Embiid is desperately calling Miami for help.

Is he a front runner because he celebrates winning and doesn't celebrate losing? Seems like pretty normal behavior to me
