Not a bad start. They're making some circus shots, we're getting good looks everytime.

Not with the lack of effort on D from all nba 1st team Marcus Smart.

Smart getting pulled should light a fire... i think. But don't like the energy from this team atm. Eerily resembling game 4 vs Toronto

Langford looks like he hurt his hand or wrist.

Hope Romeo is back in when we return. Looked hurt.

Yup. Kemba playing well and the Heat shooting 83.3% from three.

Only one of those things has a real chance of lasting all game.

Yep, I was very angry with that.

Aside from that a tough loss where I can't complain about the effort. Kemba still struggling but ever so slowly getting a little bit better.

Smart and Tatum huge. Wanamaker and Brown excellent. Theis a little disappointing.

I liked the 3 guard on court idea for something different, but would like even more imagination from Brad at times when we stagnate. Give Romeo or Kanter a minute or two and give Miami something different to deal with and see how it looks. If it doesn't work then you know for sure but if it does it adds to the options.

Holy **** Brad I didn't think you read this forum. Hot tip, I'm probably not the person to be listening to, I'm still a bit of a noob.

Yeah and Duncan simply IS one of the best 3 point shooters in the league.

As Chuck would say mockingly "google him"

So much **** 3 point talent on the Heat. I hope we focus exclusively on getting 3 point talent in the upcoming draft. Gotta get us at least ONE of these boys.

Every possession he doesn't give up wide open jump shot is a win for us because what he will bring on offense

Yeah. I think that Stevens is mixing up the mins early, to keep our main guys fresh later on.

They only got this good after arriving in the bubble. And even in the seeding games they went 3-5. But you could see they were already playing differently from the reg season. They were meh prior to the Memphis trade.

Does Kanter EVER pass?

Post #360 » by **Feed Your Head** » Thu Sep 17, 2020 11:29 pm

Kanter iso on Bam is not a good play.
