Just BODIED the 3rd seed in the East without him. Pack him up

Yeah when Butler is back it’s going to cause a crunch for minutes and with Burks emerging behind Herro Duncan’s 20 million with J Rich’s 3 million are an easy match for a Brogden that’s assuming Rozier is untradeable. If that’s the case need to keep hiding Rozier on the bench but need someone like a Brogden to do that. Rozier will be expiring next year and much easier to toss trade as a filler.


Duncan JRich and a 2nd?

Nice to have you back on the train, MWP.

Games like tonight show why we need to persist with Jovic. He has raw talent, like Ware, just in a different package. He’s gonna have good games and bad, but we need to see if there’s a real player there. He’s building.

Absolutely. Don’t have to worry about Duncan’s partial next year or carrying the dead money. Clean 20 million off the sheet. Puts us 14 million away from tax and opens MLE. No brainer tbh.

Not going to lie it infuriated me when he failed to contest a shot that DOM also called out but he’s improved immensely. He’s becoming a perfect energy 4 stretch big off the bench that compliments both Bam and Ware but seems like Ware a little more. Just need that one more physical presence to start with Bam. Vucevic could have been in Kevin Love’s role tonight.

Rozier has to seriously stop spiking his gatorade at halftime with henrock.

If PJ Tucker wasn’t almost 40 years old i would welcome him back but clearly the Clips know he’s washed. Spo got every last ounce of his powers during that last run.

He might be washed now but honestly we would’ve got 3 more good years out of him.

I was just thinking today about how we’ve always gotten mad about our PG and PF depth and how it’s gotten progressively worse every year of this build :lol:

If i’m a scout watching Rozier tonight i’m asking for multiple first to take on that extra year lol. Think we are stuck with him as Herro’s bodyguard

Dru was really on the cusp of patchworking that PG spot and now we have to try and trade for one. If Brogden is truly healthy his 6’4 220 frame next to Herro and his vet heady play are going to fit in perfectly.

Aren’t the Pels bullish on Jones and intend on keeping him?

to me it felt like he was fading the second half of his stint with the Heat....

His nifty corner 3 was starting to miss more, there was less of him attacking the basket from that corner/dunker spot.... I thought he started strong and finished around average.

Return to Miami Heat
