Heat about to crack. This starting five hard to guard when they play smart.

KP is their ceiling raiser. I dont care if they sit or lose games at the end of the season if it means he is healthy.

In the meantime, I hope to see more teams trying to double him. We need the reps of his teammates spacing, cutting around him and making right plays off his passing.

one reason Why I am happy and hopeful with X-man. he should supply some good relief in minutes and game played for KP.

He really changes this team around. Jrue has sacrificed a reduced role, to help out, too.
Then we have Super 6th-Man, Horford.

This is a good team.
We just have to keep it together and be rested for the Playoffs.

Where was the tech there? If JT did that on a dunk it would be automatic!

It's hard to double KP or anyone else with this lineup.. don't think doubles will happen often.

Joe with another late timeout. Should've called it two straight Heat buckets. Really waited for 11 points to be eaten off the lead. I worry he will keep doing this in the postseason.

Zinger might need to sit, for a bit.
He's hurting.

My fear is they get used to it than when opponents switch it up, they just stand around and ball-watch. I want the reps.

I usually don’t say much about Joe, but when your #2 is injured. Call a timeout immediately. Don’t wait for the sub at the bench. We ain’t winning anything without KP. Be smart.
