This. Jimmy had some nice moments in a Heat uni, but his half-as*-ing the regular season is the biggest reason we're even in the play-in tournament.

He doesn’t deal with facts man and he ignores he pissz poor D on Embiid late in the game

I don't hate Bam. I love the guy. I love his defense. His defense on Embiid was solid and at the end of the day Embiid is Embiid. He's going to cook anyone not named Marc Gasol. I just hate when we pretend Bam is something he isn't on offense. I'll die on the hill with 3ammy3uck3ts that Bam is the best defender in the WORLD right now. But offensively he's not that guy.

I also know 3ammy3uck3ts thinks I'm this big Herro fan or stan. I'm not. I'd traded him in an instant for Dame, KD, Mitchell and I'd consider Beal. But honestly Herro is the only scorer we currently have right now that's willing to empty the clip. Well maybe Rozier now.

I want to see more action ran for him, that little of usage tonight is inexcusable but Spo always pulls this **** when we play Embiid.

I can’t agree on the offense stuff when the numbers when he’s actually getting the ball and involved offensively are eye popping

Herro is a role player getting 30 mills, but that’s the average pay nowadays for good role players thinking about it. However, players such as Caleb, Highsmith, JJJ, Wright etc can’t score in the clutch, and it seems Spo doesn’t trust the Ball in Bam’s hand versus the likes of Embiid. Spo is as much as foult having Herro as the sole scorer. Butler has the power to override Herro but he didn’t. No one else were scoring when Herro was on the bench and Philly was just 3 points from tying the game, then JJJ and Caleb became the turnover Santa’s.

Do you need the percentages also?

8 game sample vs whole season

I said Dame would struggle without spacing which is what he showed with Gianni's. Our best 2 players can't space the floor, but they think Dame would light up the place. The forum just likes names

You all don’t know ball lmao dude is playing off ball as a catch and shoot guy, not in his Portland role. There’s a reason he pops off when Gianni’s is out

The momentum was already gone by that point, Miami looked flat nearly the whole 3rd quarter.

Quite frankly, I give zero blame to Bam for the loss. This is who he is, putting up the same numbers for the past four years now. He’s not Bosh.

And I’m gonna blame Herro, because the team decided to put the offense on his shoulders and he didn’t deliver. Simply, we win if he has a better shooting night.

6-17, Bam did his part. Exactly what was asked of him

Was his job to not score when Batum defends him too?

Looking at Herros Stats now it looks bad lol but why didn't it stick out as much while watching? Keep in mind I missed almost the whole first quarter.

Maybe cause we were playing awesome defence and had a cushion his missed shots didn't stick out as much? I dunno didn't seem like he had such a bad game with just the eye test.

I do wonder if Butler playing in the 2nd half hobbled hurt Miami overall. I get he gutted it out while hurt but I don't think he helped the team at all, he needed to sit if he couldn't do much being a hurt decoy didn't seem to help.

unfortunately JJJ was at the centre of like three or 4 bad plays down the stretch. Bad foul on Embiid, Reckless driving almost leading to turnover, passing to Herro near the Half court line, dribbling the ball into their hands and prob more I'm forgetting.

While searching for a box score with the quarters/halves in it I came across this from ESPN...

Bingo, seems like this has been normal all season. I think hes been hurt alot during the season, even while playing.
