I keep telling you guys nothing will change until we get ourselves some WHALES, not Sardines. With that said, OP needs a 30 day ban.

Go go go go, winning streak incoming

[Majestic7]

Losing streak rolls on. Sub-.500 just two losses away. Phoenix & Portland could make that happen. Trouble ahead.

FWIW Miami Heat is 0-3 since I started posting again after my little hiatus

Spoiler:

We don't have a draft pick. Could you come back next season?

I don't want to keep Duncan. Way too one-dimensional. ITrade him now or keep him for less then 10 Mil a year, or let him walk.

I think Nunn is a backup PG, at best. And I might like Vincent more. Vincent is smarter, better defender, I trust his 3 point shoot more long term. And he'll be cheaper.

I wished we gave KZ more reps instead of over relying on Kelly - who will never be consistent enough to be a legit starter.

Lowry (Or Dipo)
Herro (he's got to improve his defense, but he can't be worse then Duncan and I'm sure he'll put in the work)
Jimmy
KZ Or Ariza
Bam

I want to see this group this year. This will at least guarantee a good defensive team, and a lot less dependency on hot 3 point shooting. We'll get to the line more, get more steals/block/rebounds, more driving and less chucking.

Herro gotta go. Reminds of JR smith, he can get too hot or too cold.

Sophomores without a real off-season are sure to have problems. I think we've got to remember the situation they are dealing with and make allowances.

BBRef's boxscores are out with their ORTG and DRTG for the players for just that game...

ORTG | DRTG - Just highlights how good or bad on each side of the ball a player was in their time on the court.
------------------------------------------
Butler 122 |108 +14
Duncan 109 |110 -1 - not as bad as expected
Bam 107 |96 +17
Olynyk 60 |109 -49
Nunn 109 |110 -1 - solid game but only 23 minutes

Herro 80 | 110 -30 - His bad decisions on passes and shots, coupled with his defense makes this somewhat normal.
Iggy 129 | 102 +27 - didn't do much but the team did well with him on the court
Ariza 87 | 96 -9 - If his shooting comes around, he could be good rotation player for Miami
Vincent 135 | 107 +28 - very efficient game and it shows
Achiuwa 23 | 117 -94 - very small but bad sample size

What is incredible is Indiana's players ORTG...
Holiday 111, Turner 128, TJ 158, McDermott 136... everyone else 94 or less(Sabonis was 89 for the game but 94 for DRTG).
Those 4 that were 111+, they're positive ORTG-DRTG players for the year.
