NBA man
I’m done anyways.


The refs completely decided the end of this game.

Everything for them down the stretch was a 3 point play. I hope someone from the team goes in during the press conferences, but I know they won't.

Still, it shouldn't have even come to this. We just suddenly decided to not defend the hot hand. Batum was legit the only person scoring for a good 6 minutes it felt like. I am floored.


Yes. I cant watch this type of game. I dont want to know the names of the refs. Im done.

Nope, injury or not if you’re going to coast all season and put us in this horrible situation you have to show up when it matters. It’s that simple.


They will probably pay him off loyalty ironically when they didn't do that for Wade. I wouldn't pay him as tough as it is. Even if it gets flak, I think it's the right move to move on. This brand of basketball is not sustainable. We have to catch lightning in a bottle to even have a chance at a run.


If they’re going to do that Free Bam

There is no elite option on offense just as a starting point for team building.


Yall gotta stop with this Bs Bam can’t score nonsense. He plays to the scheme. 25-12-6 this year without Jimmy and Herro, 22-11-5 without Jimmy.

Herros last shot a microcosm of things - got his points, but jeopardised any type of chance to win.

No Duncan & Rozier!

Herro's statline is a lot worse than what he actually played. I know he's going to take a lot of **** anyway, but he was actually fine tonight. Most of those shots he took were good shots that I'd trust him with 90% of the time. They just didn't start to go in until the 4th.

What I meant is Bam isn't a guy who is going to take over a game on offense. I get the offense doesn't go through him and that's on Spo but he's not going to score 40+ points in a big game like other stars. That will never be his role. So what I'm saying is our 3 main guys aren't scoring when needed.

Or maybe Bam was trash as well


Nope, 0 actions ran for him. Learn the game.

I'm gonna need some analysis on that. Should have been the Bam/Herro show but it seemed Bam shut down after bricking a couple of threes.

He wasn't looking to score but there wasn't really anything being called for him.

This is not a game to put a blame on Herro. If anything i blame Spo for not running plays for Bam. When Jimmy clearly was hurt and couldnt carry the offensive load you dont just let Herro take every shot. Work something for Bam. Can't have him being this passive.

I expected L today, tight win next one and flip switch against Boston. It's still valid. Don't worry your faith will be rewarded with that blowout win against Boston in game 1
