The heat cannot play better than they have. And now they’re down 3.

Just so I get this straight, you guys expected the defense to stay the same game 1 as playoffs last year with new players who suck at defense after crying all year last year that we need to sacrifice defense for offense.

Da Silva carrying over his preseason/eurobasket form, and showing that even older rookies can take big steps into year two (hopefully. I believe in him)

Black’s been out of control. Taking bad shots. His first 3 was a bank off the glass. He didn’t call it.

The only thing I'm actually concerned about defensively is Tyus Jones. It turns even a very pedestrian player like Davion Mitchell into a problem because he can drive Jones deep into the paint on every possession.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

I finally found a decent stream, 57 pts halfway thru the 2nd quarter is insane
