man I miss the 90's and 2000's, you know exactly what you were going to get every night. Teams were so consistent, players were so consistent. This Heat is so different every game. I gotta believe trade rumors got players shook but they should be able to play through anything.
1. Herro 2. Bol Bol 3. Seko 4. Bruno
unless we trade up for Barrett or trade down for PJ Washington

I was (half) kidding; Miami won't fire Spoelstra. However, I think this is a coaching issue.

On JJ Redick's podcast, Duncan Robinson basically said Spoelstra basically asked him to just chuck up as many 3s as possible and not do much else. I would imagine Bam has been told to concentrate on other aspects other than scoring.

No team has proven to be quite as offensively-challenged as Miami despite having significantly worse rosters. There is no reason Miami should be 27th in scoring, I don't care who has missed time. Detroit scores more per game than Miami!

To score under 90 points is basically the equivalent of going an entire quarter without scoring in today's game. You have to be awful to do that and Miami has done that now 6 times this season. For comparison, Detroit has only scored under 90 in 1 game, Houston (with all its injuries and trades) has not failed to score 90 in a game, Cleveland (lowest scoring team in the league) has failed to score 90 in 5 games.

Swap Precious for a useful stretch 5 and we good.


Dragon surely looks old and slow, i really think its time to let him go. I rather keep Herro than Duncan

We are but we’re so bad without Jimmy it’s tough to lose a winnable game with him.

That's true. Since the ASB Goran has been shooting horribly outside of that one quarter, so has Nunn, and Herro has just been alright all season.

Only Kelly really has been offering good support since then though not so much yesterday.
