Youth showed juice and life that was non-existent thru 3 quarters. Redeemed the game.

Starts with D.

Rozier is unplayable if Larsson is available.

FFS, get this trade done. Bonus points if Rozier is a part of it.

Team will continue to have a dark cloud over them until Jimmy (and praying to god Terry) are out of here. These guys don’t want to play with him.

No defense, no play making, and no drivers for paint penetration.

Did not watch but not surprised we fell flat without Herro. Bam and Ware is still a great foundation. Need to get the Butler stench out of here for us to truly move on and get the motivated reinforcements.

Ware with 20, 16 and 2.

Hes doing his part.

Need to subtract the negatives from this team and get streamlined.

Rest of this season should all be about the young guys getting reps and competing for a playoff spot. It feels the team and coaching staff has adjusted to that accordingly, as Ware, Jovic, Jaquez are all significant parts of the rotation now. Larsson would have earned himself a call up to be amongst that group tonight - I think he'll take Burks' spot and get 15-20 mins a night, depending on the shakeout from this Jimmy trade.

Need to load up on some penetrating playmaking guards to really unlock the Bam/Ware duo. Herro missing was a back breaking blow. Need quality depth.

Kel'el Ware last 5:

16.2ppg, 10.8rpg, 1.0apg, 1.4bpg, 28.0mpg
33/63 = 52.4%fg, 7/18 = 38.9% 3fg (1.4 makes per) and 8/8 = 100%ft

If he gets the long leash here on out, he absolutely could win ROY.

Jimmy will simply be addition by subtraction at this point. Getting quality players would be huge. Then we’ve got to find a way to get Terry out of here, he ruins everything when he steps on the court. He is HORRIBLE

He just has to stay healthy and continue to play more like that 2nd half than the 1st and he should win it pretty easily. He can only miss 2 more games

Jimmy butler didn’t put much effort in this game in Tyler Herro’s absence. If Tyler was playing Heat could’ve be credited an extra 20 points. In this game is where jimmy butler should’ve elevated his game. Spo made the correct calls to bench him nearly the entire 4 quarters. It’s a shame that larrson put a lot more effort in the 4th quarter than butler did in the entire game.

Duncan has been good the last two games, Spo must really trusting him to play him that much because Duncan’s inconsistency is often attributes to the team shortcomings . Nevertheless, if jimmy shows up in this game, Heat could’ve better chance of winning.

Don’t get me started on Rozier or else I am going to need a whole lot of aspirin.
