Bench Terry 2nd half, start Ware. It’s not rocket science

Spo needs to start Jovic instead of Terry in the 3rd. He's our 3rd best player, behind Herro and Bam. The offense just goes so much better with Jovic

Nooo. Just stay on what's working, leave Ware-Jovic combo off the bench for now.

Jovic is the best Miami point guard, he has created so many open looks for his teammates in the first half, too bad they missed lots of those shots. Jovic has the potential to become Miami's Franz Wagner. I wrote before in Jovic thread, if you want to unlock Jovic full potential you have to give him freedom to play with the ball in his hands. He played at the pg position in the youth competitions and he was great at it.

He hasn’t been that bad handling them, gets the ball moving pretty quickly

Jovic plays well with Ware and Highsmith. He is in the right role

I’d just start Ware and bring Bam off the bench in the 2nd half. But Spo would never do that and instead do a gimmick like he did in the first and do the switch a few mins in and have Bam play against their bench. Problem is that we’ll be down by that time.

Same with Terry too.


Herro, HH, JJJ, Niko, Ware would be a sweet starting lineup

Jovic at the 4 for majority of game with Ware or Bam is the difference. Highsmith is not the answer as the starting 4.

You know you made it when you get blitz and triple teamed in this league.

Exactly. Starting Jovic is not the answer. We need to find another option over Highsmith at the 4. Maybe even give Keshad Johnson a fair look

Would be nice if he had a PG to take some pressure off but he’s handling as best as he can

Peak Wade would average 40-8-10 in this inflated stats era controlled by perimeter players

Continue with Jovic off the bench with Ware and just give him starters minutes. Need to find a starting vet true PF or C like Vucevic that plays 18-20 minutes.

Seeing the Wade highlights at halftime every game gets me hype, there will NEVER be another. If he didn’t have so many knee problems and the dislocated shoulder ruined his MVP season in 07 he’d be better than Kobe, I said what I said.
