My takeaway from this is that Doc can stop playing Patty C to "try and give him some confidence". Just stop playing him. He's a negative on the court out there and has been for a long while. We need to offload him.


Too bad Doc only trust veterans. Maybe Horst can find someone older and more washed up.

There was a play early on in the game where Bam got an offensive rebound and aggressively dunked the ball all while Giannis was just standing under the rim with his arms up not looking at anything. Should have known then how this one would go.


What's going on with Dame is just a bummer. Him being special is what was suppose to be the difference. I am hopeful he can still be that guy but I don't know if it's going to be this season?

There will be games where a team hits everything and our legs are toast. Heat had a day off and they were mad about a tough loss to Boston. We won against a good team yesterday; their focus was better.

In series both teams have the same amount of rest between games

I think Dame sitting on the couch all summer doing nothing is rearing its ugly head this season.
"Wes, Hill, Ibaka, Allen, Nwora, Brook, Pat, Ingles, Khris are all slow-mo, injury prone ... a sandcastle waiting for playoff wave to get wrecked. A castle with no long-range archers... is destined to fall. That is all I have to say."-- FOTIS

Washington Generals would beat us if Spo is coaching them.

You can blame Horst for hiring him in the first place, but I maintain that not many GM's would have the balls to pull the plug as early as we did. Season-saving move.


Sample size, fools gold. Our defense was truly pathetic tonight.

Horst needs to bring in a brain trust specifically for the Heat. SPO owns us and we beat them like once through a ride the pine shooter who's now facing jail time.

Not gonna worry too much about this one, even though it's pretty embarrassing. This team beat the Heat two other times this season with their team at better strength. This was a pride game for them and their scrubs came out and played like it.

Really tired of B2Bs this season. Feels like there have been a lot recently. Trash ass NBA schedule.

As the commentators are saying, it was a one player team today for the Bucks.

If Dame doesn’t improve dramatically, we are screwed.

As Doc is correctly saying just now, our offense was really bad today, rather than defense. It was a one person effort.

Thank god we swept these d-bags right off the court en route to a championship, cuz this is getting **** annoying. Can’t understand for the life of me how we can’t get up to play these dudes after what happened last playoffs.

This and not getting up for those Pacers games is weird. This team needs more guys who give a **** (and good)

Doc needs to look in the mirror. Our offense was top 5 before he got here.
In the 8 games he's coached we're 20th in points/game (112.9) and 21st in offensive rating (114.3). That doesn't include tonight's clunker either.
