G26: Grizzlies @ Heat // Mon 12/6/21 7:30 PM EST

We are a lowry injury away from being a g league team.

I’m sure it’s coming, he’s been playing like a g leaguer majority of the year anyways though

[balla345]

Tuckers lost his early season magic

Hes playing way to much minutes. Hes better playing with Bam

[3ammy3uck3ts]

Shorthanded yet only down 11 to a hot Grizzlies team at halftime. Could be worse. Jimmy is rusty.

They’re missing the only star player they have lol

[harlem_ball]

Of course man. This team is so damn trash.

You have a Dame/Ingram agenda

Not an agenda at all, they’re both clear upgrade over what we currently have though.

You cant have Dame/Ingram and also Bam and Butler can you? It doesn't even work in the cap.

They are seemingly better without his ISO and bad defense. I dunno.

[BenoUdrihFTL]

team looks disjointed at times and this is all coaching

This season so far has been the Spo Special:

Exceed expectations when there are none

Underachieve when expecting something big

I think Spo is the coach equivalent of a player who is a great floor raiser rather than ceiling raiser

[3ammy3uck3ts]

This team is painful to watch these days. Poor roster mismanagement eating us alive yet again.

Name a contending team that plays as many borderline nba players as us

"Man it's physical!"

In a game where we give up 60 first half points to a team missing its offensive anchor. I think Eric meant to say that Memphis and Memphis alone is playing physical

We’re getting punked. I’ve been saying it the last 10 or so games, this team is not the bunch of dogs they try to pretend to be. We’ve been punked multiple times this season when it gets physical.

Easy to get punked and demoralized when playing this small

Not all 4 but you can have 3

Yeah he makes scrubs good but has seemingly lost his ability to manage top heavy talent? Nahhh I dunno

Hard to be positive when we’ve played maybe a good 4 minutes so far. Bucks bulls and Sixers up next probably without Jimmy (not that it would matter)

To be fair, its very difficult to be physical when the refs won't let you but will let the other team. Jimmy got put on his ass several times with no call that half, and thats not something they are letting go without a whistle if we do it to the other team.

It seems as if there is this long prevailing notion around the league that the Heat are a fake tough guy team. Thats why so many were happy about what happened to Markieff and constantly talk **** on Jimmy. But whats concerning is its almost as if its gotten into the refs head too.

Dipo IR
UD-Old man collecting checks
KZ- China
Yurtseven- Spo says no
Open roster spot- Tax avoiding

Awful

No its not. This fixation with playing big like Yurt is some sort of saviour doesn't make any sense. The roster is what it is, its meant for small ball and it's not deep. The Heat need Butler, Lowry and Bam to healthy. They each indispensable because there's no one else in the roster that can replicate what each person does.
Butler is the only one who can consistently get to the rim and get FTs. Lowry is our only natural pg and Bam is our only competant big and lob threat. You see what happens with our switching defense when Bam is out, it goes to sheet.
Now for everyone screaming for Yurt, I don't see how he solves the defensive problem. Neither Yurt or Dedmon is a shot blocking big and Yurt as we've seen gets lost on defence.
While Bam is out, they need to use that last roster spot and either get an athletic shot blocking big so they can play more drop defense or get an another athlete at the 4 position.
I just think this team is slow and offers limited rim pressure especially when Butler is clearly not a 100 %.

Points over the top and second chances are destroying the Heat.

Have you seen me include them in a single trade proposals in the regular season thread lol?

Yeah. Hang in there bud. Last game was unwatchable. Low point of the season thus far.

The thing about having a top heavy roster is when one of them get hurts it doesn't work.
