Maybe - I don't think we need to. I think we just need to get Kel'el involved again on the lob. Mitchell should help here.

Kel'el vs Chet should be a fun next game out.


I though ware and wiggs developed some early chemistry.

Wiggins was looking for ware on lobs and when wiggins got to the rim, he saw 3 bodies every time which left ware open for easy put backs on a miss. I'd probably lean into that more on the second unit instead of Rozier going 1 vs 4.


Its comical with Terry at this point. Thats a guy who is fighting for his life in the g league, not a 30 minute a night offensive hub.


Hes not a bad player, just in a bad role. He's bench gunner. When he's cooking, he should get more minutes. When he's off, he gets like 10 because he doesn't provide anything else. That was a monster momentum swing when he entered the game, dont think ive seen that in a while. Defense collapsed and the offense became aau iso style with quick 3 pt shots everywhere. Contagious is an understatement.

To be fair I don’t think Mitchell played in the 4th while Terry played majority of it because Spo simply just can not get enough of him. He was trending for 30 I think (hope)

Spo knows what he's doing. Look frustrated and appear to be trying but really tanking. Currently sitting with the 14 & 16 picks.

Trash trash trash. Trying to make Bam into a leader is not going to work. The leader was traded. Now we are leaderless. When the team needs buckets, he needs to be more aggressive and get his. Show some emotion and some fight. He's too passive. All he is and will ever be is an overpaid role player.

There are moments during any game where a leader steps up and stabilize the situation. He did not. He looked just as lost as the rookies. You are looking at empty stats young fella :lol:

I switched over to that game. He definitely looked more engaged.

I wouldn't mind Curry winning a 5th ring. Warriors roster has changed so much over his career it would be like the 3rd different team. I thought it was pretty cool when he won a ring post KD. I remember when he tore it up in NCAA tournament. I thought he was going to be a second rate JJ Reddick... I sure got that one wrong.

They have a team of REAL leaders. It might not go as smoothly, but they can stabilize the ship until they figure it out. Crazy how people live on the Heat board for years and don't know anything.

Yeah i want to see Anderson a little more too. He just didn’t look comfortable out there tonight.


He looked great playing alongside a center and power forward, while also getting to play his natural small forward position in that Wolves team. He was pretty surprised when Spo put him in as the 5.

We need a player who can do what Tatum did in the 3rd, basically taking over the game. We do not have anyone like that, and to be a serious contender, that is almost a requirement. Yeah if Tyler played, the game might have been more competitive, but we are not taking a series against a team like this. If we get lucky and Tyler gets hot we maybe scrape out 1 game like we did last season. But in all likelihood we are getting swept.

He's probably already hating it here saying to himself "this mofo thinks I'm a 5 wtf!" :lol:

Gonna need Ant Edwards to ask for a trade for someone of that type of explosive calibre. Or sign Luka.

Basically, good luck.

The only reasonable explanation I can come up with is that they don't want to win too many games. We know they are really bad, no surprise, but that bench rotation is pure Ls.
