Same as Tatum and less than Holiday or Pozingas. One million more than Brown

Bam's definitely worth the money. Problem is Heat don't have Bam plus any 3 out of Tatum, Pozingas, Brown, and Holiday.

Who's beating a lineup of

Pozingas
Bam
Tatum
Brown
White

or
Bam
Tatum
Brown
Holiday
White

or
Pozingas
Bam
Tatum
Holiday
White


Exactly. That will hopefully change this summer if we can get Mitchell

If they miss the next 2 shots and we hit 2 3s its under 10 with 3minutes left that would be funny as hell

Should have been doing this in the 1st quarter. Just take 3s. Don't think just shoot when you have any space. This dribbling, setting screens trying to get better shot isn't going anywhere. Hunt 3s early in possession

Maybe yall right, Wright needs to start. I think Martin can guard either Tatum or Brown a bit better than Wright tho

How much better would Miami be with Maxey? They wouldn't have had to trade for Lowry and could have brought in some more talent since Maxey was on a rookie contract.


Agreed on Maxey and that was a big miss.

Back to Minnesota though, the Heat franchise is way better. Minnesota finally sticking is a case of a broken clock being right twice a day. Don’t believe Miami would have too bad of a time finding the next guy. But you have to be at the top of the draft to have a chance

You do? Bam was a late lottery pick, Michell was too, Butler was the end of the 1st round pick, how about Jovic and Giannis? What Miami COULD do is find their guy in the draft, possibly outside the top 3 and TRADE for the pick to get that player.

This is what happens when you let off the gas, you play less defense and gives the other team a chance to get hot by getting good looks.

Start Duncan instead. No way Wright is making those shots in game 2. We need to get Duncan going and he should be playing 30 + min if his body can handle it.

Bam will find a way to make an impact this series, but some of you have unrealistic expectations for him smh


But he's basically Jordan, Duncan, and Jesus all in one. With the 3pt shooting coming alive add in Curry too. Well at least that's what we're being lead to believe.

Martin can start. He's earned that. But if we see he doesn't have it going offensively like he hasn't basically this entire year? Spo needs to go to Wright quickly and see what he can get from him and stick with it.

TBF Philly would have worked out way better if the colangelos weren't forced in for hinkie.

Drafted bridges and traded him.

Traded assets for Jimmy and let him walk

Traded assets for Tobias Harris.


With better moves using assets from the tanking years that roster could have been stacked.

Cool, Miami gave up 3 2nd round picks for high 2nd round pick to get him. I think it's well worth 3 2nd rounders if they like a guy, they just missed which is what can happen when you draft at the top of the 1st round.

ALL TEAMS HAVE HITS AND MISSES.

This game was the Boston 3pt avalanche. I'm assuming next game it will be Brown and Tatum going bonkers on us.
