Its actually funny but I entirely didn't notice that Rozier didn't play tonight. It didn't strike me until I read one or two posts mentioning it. Guess that shows how minimally impactful he's been thus far in his tenure. I remember when some thought he'd save the season. Smh.

For better or worse, Herro is aggressive on the offensive end. Some guys have all the tools, but they don't have the mental makeup. Other guys don't have the tools, but the have they have a confidence which exceeds their skillset/ability.
The fact is 99 Percent life is like that
we just don't see it
It's All about confidence with no skills To match it

But now and then a jordan kobe or lebron come around

You put Herro's mindset in Jovic's head and you probably have a great player. Jovic just happens to have the size and enough athletic ability where he could become a good scorer in the NBA but I don't think he has the right mindset.


I don't think there is anything wrong with Jovic's mindset actually. He drives and shoots with confidence, grabs rebounds and pushes the ball up the floor, hits 3s at a good clip. He just has a very short leash and always gets benched for the team's defensive shortcomings. I guess it doesn't help that Jagsmith is his backup and Spo's preferred option.

Absolutely has the potential to be a staple of strong Heat teams in the years to come, and can be a championship level starter if things break his way in the next few years.

The ones whose mindset needs some reset are Bam, Herro and to some extent Jimmy. This whole playoff Jimmy aura seems to be working against him now unfortunately. Hope it's not anything major and that he's back next game. The Heat definitely need his stabilizing presence.

How do you rebuild when you don't own all your own picks? Need to move Bam too or the defense will be good enough not to tank near the top of the draft.

Unless bam wins us the game And scores at least 25 points... I think it's pretty obvious next game will be his last in a heat uniform

Bam, the current team captain and the same guy who was just added to the Olympic team? I'm not so sure about that, I don't think they hand over that honor to someone they're willing to move.

I was going to say something but didn’t, L guaranteed for breaking your streak.

He can take it from game 1 of the Playoffs, I'll assume all the bad JUJU from this game.

Cubano stole KD's game thread and unleashed hell upon the franchise. The new IggieCC. :nonono:

Think we win if Jovic played at the end. JJJ makes so many rookie mistakes but hes going to be one hell of a player for us for the years to come.

I thought Al was talking about Jimmy, and not Bam when he said "last in a heat uniform".

Team is injury cursed. Same as the miami dolphins. Now Butler with a MCL injury. Rested all year to get hurt 22 mins in . Every playoff we have 1-2 heartbreaking injuries. Just lose next game we will get swept without butler.

I just want Heat to be in a PO series for the young guys. They need this experience to understand how it feels and what it takes. Thats all I want now, and for Herro & Bam to believe theyre the goto guys now.
