Actually don't think we look that bad, but Cavs look a lot fresher which makes sense considering circumstances. Need our conditioning to carry us in the second half if we're gonna make this a game.

Also please don't let this be a Kyle Anderson game, he provides nothing over the proper two big lineup, if Ware sits the fourth for Anderson I'll be annoyed.

Andrew Wiggins needs to stop being put in decision making scenarios, spot up or iso that's it period.

Davion not playing smart, he is dribbling to open spots and not shooting nor making a pass to an open player

It's why davion isn't a starting pg. He's a poor orchestrator. He's basically a Marcus smart.

Herro the weakest link so far, especially since his offense isn't compensating for lack of defense

3 back to back bad plays after a TO. That might be the game there.
First unforced TO by Mitchell, then Mitchell forces a bad shot over length and then dumba$$ shot by Wiggins.

We need another playmaker if herro not making shots there’s really nothing else we can do. JJJ might be someone we can’t try

But Duncan over Larsson is criminal. Even if you for some reason want to keep Duncan in the rotation, he should not be coming in before Larsson. He should be the 8th man off the bench at BEST.
This is the game to play Jovic because you can afford to lose the game and give him time to adjust. Heat needs his scoring creation and passing

No iso imo either unless its against a weak or smaller defender. He needs to be in the post or spotting up. And I'm weary on the spotting up too, but that's probably just my bias.
