Miami was traditionally a tough matchup for the Cliff Hornets. Will be interesting to see how things go now. Expect Marv to have a really bad game ... Miami focuses on quick defense against 3s and it bothers him in particular making him rush shots or pass them up.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Great point, JB should focus on playing guys that can take advantage of that by making plays off the dribble. We need Lamb and Monk to play well tonight.

how is this any worse than the 25 percent he has been shooting from three in the first 2 games?

I think there's a decent chance the Heat are still trying to deal for Butler with all of these guys out.

Let's go gentlemen...been hyped waiting for this game all day. Kemba's going to need 1-2 guys to step up and help shoulder the scoring load. With our depth I think that is more than doable tonight.

The Heat are one of those teams that can be missing 4 rotation players and it doesn't matter because they are all the same player

Like what is the difference between McGruder and Richardson and Johnson.... ????? I don't know

Gonna be interesting to see how Borrego matches wits with Spoelstra. Clifford made Spo look like John Wooden so I think we might actually be more competitive without his sabotaging.

Wonder what Spoelstra is going to look like 10 years from now, his bald spot is pretty noticeable

The Heat always get up for us. Richardson transforms from a role player that barely look for his shot into looking like a all-star and then some random wing will become a 3pt specialist. No Ellington tonight so it’ll be McGruder.

batum wants me to believe but i wont

zeller is clearly trying to get his bearings in this new defense too. He's been one step slow on a lot of possessions this year. Still good, but its definitely noticeable

Aggressive shooting Batum is good Batum
