I live in South Florida and the last Heat/Magic game was Chris Bosh's retirement jersey. And apparently that was the last game we won in Miami. And Im going to be there tonight!!!

Really was hoping Franz would play, but hopefully we get a win!!

Can’t wait to see Paolo draw in the defense, passing it to a wide open Fultz who then stalls the offense by driving it into the packed paint instead of shooting the open 3.

It feels like things will get worse before they get better. I'd be happy to be wrong.

Both are crap but one has shown over 4 years that he isn't going to get better while one is 1/2 way into his 1st year and hs opportunity to get better

If this statement is true you could say the same about Black

I do NOT know if Fultz is starting. But he was wearing the starter jersey in practice yesterday.

Combine that with Ingles returning (who can handle 2nd unit playmaking responsibilities) and I'm just reading tea leaves.

Plot twist: Anthony Black is wearing the starter jersey today in walkthrough and Fultz is in a 2nd team jersey.
