Small ball is basketball's Wildcat Offense unless you have a few top 30 of all time goats playing for you.


MIL was bigger
NY was bigger
Boston was bigger

Size always helps but it’s just dumb low hanging fruit to cry about. The reason this team is consistently contending in the playoffs is bc Miami requires multi-faceted skillsets from each player on the floor to execute the schemes.

If we can acquire more size without sacrificing the skillets that’s great. But to just cry about size is reflective of a lack of understanding. Every team would love to be able to just add extremely athletic and skilled giants to man the roster. There are real world limitations that the org needs to operate within.

There’s only one Jokic in the world (but at least we got a Jovic)


But hold on.....i stated the same as what Greg is saying here several months ago reiterating how had we been fully healthy in the bubble we may have won vs Lakers & vs Boston in gm7 in spite of small ball. Then i had everybody state how w/ Love we're no longer small. So when we win we're big, but when we lose we're small again?

Again, i reinforce we were never big & w/ a fully healthy Jimmy & even Herro & Dipo this series may be tied or we may even be winning and this small ball criticism becomes a non factor the way it was for the 1st 3 series. I've said it numerous times now our main issue isn't small ball it's the bloody fact we're always getting f*ckin injured at crucial times in the season.
If u don't want 2b here, the way things work, u don't like it, then don't b here. U have 2 stand on something. If Miami ain't standing on something, they become alot of these organizations trying 2 find their identity. This is the culture, bro -Wade

Good news is we have put ourselves on the big stage for everybody to see. This should help with recruiting plus being in Miami. If Spo can coach this team to the Finals then get this roster some legitimate talent. No offense to our guys but more often than not, they aren't great. It was a magical run but you aren't winning titles with asking Gabe and Strus to be your starting scoring options. I'm optimistic about the future but we need to get away from rewarding our own guys. I like these guys but do what's best for the franchise over loyalty.

Haha wouldn’t be surprised.. I was just thinking that. Knowing this team we will win game 5, team will give us false hope, only to lose at home again in game 6.


Yah, this season is so crazy that I could see this Heat team winning game 5 just off sheer will. :lol:



It’s not impossible to win game 5 on the road and use that momentum to win game 6, and then lose in game 7. Crazier things have happened.

We need Nurkić in the deal also. His name sounds like
Jokic and that’s good enough for me.

Could have used Dwight Howard or a real Center. Bam is a 4, always has been.


It’s incomprehensible to me that this post got 2 likes


Doesn't shock me on this forum.

The worm in the room is that our team's second leading scorer got injured for a second straight postseason and was on the bench dressed like a jackass when we needed him most.

Jimmy doesnt get it

HE CANNOT BE A PASSIVE "TEAM FIRST" player because then nobody respects his drives anymore, because hes not a scoring threat


Jimmy NEEDS to be out there dropping 30+ and taking over a game, to strike fear into the defense, and THEN his little drives and kickout passes will be effective

but if hes gonna be a non factor, they just 1v1 him and dont overhelp when he drives, they stay home on our shooters.

Read on Twitter

People here get on Malone but I can appreciate the way he’s managed his team going back to the WCF. That last sentence is what this group has been falling victim to ever since they played with their food and didnt close out Boston early.

We gotta get some scoring in the offseason, we just made the finals. Other players/teams are watching us & should want to be on this team
