I'm a little concerned. These guys look tough to beat.

Nuggets played 1 undrafted guy and only beat us by 4, Nets play 2 in their new regular rotation. Maybe we actually have a chance, I doubt it though

With this team it really doesn’t matter. We will play up or play down to the competition , ugly up the game, and it will be a toss up at the end.

I watched them beat the Bulls and should’ve beat the Sixers, as crazy as it seems they looked like a far better put together team than ours. Their offense was super smooth compared to the junk we run and defensively they seem to be pretty good. Would not surprise me at all to lose this one.

Also crazy how they did Cam Thomas after the deadline and him scoring 3 straight 40+ games.

Truth is our offense is ugly and suck in mud in addition to be inefficent.

To me the main issue besides not hitting 3's is - lack of a guy that can break down the defense on his own, either pull up for 3', finish at the rim or kick it out.

Jimmy can drive and finish or kick out, can't pull up.
Bam can finish and kick out, can't drive.
Herro can pull up, can't finish or drive without a screen.

Everyting gets so much easier when you have that one guy that can easily just get the offense an advantage to start the offense with.

Didn’t the Heat sign some 3 point specialist to a big contract? What happened to that guy? I forget his name. Iggie Robinson?

Make that 14 missed games and counting for 14.

At least it sounds like the Calvary (another undrafted guy, this one use makes $90M) is coming to help Jimmy and Bam. Heck yea, play in tourney bound by the ASB!

Unfortunately their saying that there might no be any 3pt shooting available in the buyout market either there or choosing Miami. Our only available option is to make Mr. Duncan servicable again to gain some 3pt shooting, also we need him to regain some sort of value for the upcoming offseason. Thats what all the Heat Media have been pushing all weekend and this morning.

Think Duncan has a shot to earn his starting spot back with Strus underperforming and the team treadmilling. This is a great opportunity to announce his presence to the team again

If he wanted the starting spot, sure. Does he though? No reason for a guy with his style of play to drop off. He should only be getting better. No excuses.
