Facts. And even our stars are pressed to overcompensate for the lack of a lead guard.
Get a facilitating scoring guard and suddenly Bam can be the beneficiary of more created looks in the pick and roll (and a lot less double teams), we can avoid scoring droughts when Jimmy's not on, Herro can focus on running around getting open looks as an off-ball shooter (and still be a secondary playmaker), guys like JRich and Caleb can focus exclusively on 3 and D.
The lack of skill from the guard rotation is placing a drag on every player in the lineup.
And this has been an issue for the last 2 seasons at minimum. It’s glaring and it needs to be corrected.
Like Caleb and Jrich specialize as 3 and D slashing guys off the ball, why the hell are they our starting and backup PGs?! It’s hard to even get a gauge on some of these guys, especially the cheap labor guys to see if they could really contribute to a championship.
Bammy what's your thoughts on Miles Bridges? I remember having this conversation with Beenie not so long ago and he was a big proponent of bringing him in. Thought the likely hood was slim because of his past and Klutch ties but if the organization is looking for a cheap homerun play and looking to add dynamic scorer and bully at the 4 then Bridges would have to be high up there. If the Heat trust it's locker room and culture then you would think he's worth the risk. If it don't work out you just let him walk or work out a S&T in offseason. But to add two more 20 point scorers to your lineup in Rozier and Bridges would be pretty sweet. I'm looking deep into this because of Bridges easy contract to bring back in trade with Rozier without having to get overly complicated with Robinson's deal.
I mean I think if you’re a grown man and you put your hands on a woman you’re a b!tch. Doing it when you’re a giant at 6’7 230 is even worse. I also think people deserve a second chance, he’s young and dumb. We had no issues bringing in Nunn or James Johnson when they did the same thing and he’s much more talented than both of them.
I mean you said it in your post; he’s a 4. That’s our 2nd biggest position of need. Hes talented and and scorer, that’s what I’ve been harping on us missing. I think if you can add Rozier PJW and Bridges that’s a massive upgrade to the roster and I trust Spo to bring out the best in all of them.
Rozier/Herro
Duncan/JJJ
Jimmy/Highsmith
PJW/Bridges
Bam/Love
That’s a far superior 10 man rotation to what we have now.
