The Heat need to get very tough on the defensive end. The Cavs were playing too freely and loose. Make them feel you.

We need to punch them in the mouth first too. I know we all are kinda scared of getting big leads these days because of how those leads were blown so often this season, but we actually need a big early quarter to go that way. To put some damn fear in them and bring down their confidence a bit, but also as a cushion for the offensive lulls we will def have.

I like it but they also need to replace Burks' minutes with Pelle, we need the size and defense.

Yep, trying to get inside more after only like 5 shots at the rim last game is key.

We refuse to update defensively. Always giving up open threes to collapse inside. And its getting less and less effective as thats the shot most of these guys want to take.
