Hope we see another kickass action next game but I'm worried the Heat may relax a bit.

3rd seed and hanging with Brooklyn and Chicago without Bam, Jimmy, Oladipo, and all the other problems. That's really impressive.

I think that was to get a 2 for 1 to end the QTR.

I meant during the first half of the 4th Q. There were too many quick 3's.

So a 4-2 road trip. Losses to the Kings (who we seem to struggle against in recent seasons) and the Warriors (top-2 team). Took care of business against the -.500 teams and got a huge blowout win in Phoenix. Butler been out for most of those games.

This team is in VERY good shape with a lot of home games coming up.

Remember when you caused the Warriors to blow the first 3-1 lead in finals history to LeBRon Iggs? :reporter:

It was also the first home team to lose a game 7 in the finals in over 40 years Iggs :reporter:

Any comment Iggs :reporter:

I really don't understand why Strus does well and doesn't get minutes, even when he starts and it seems to happen a lot.

We’ll either be the 2nd seed or a full game closer to 1st by the end of the night

I wanted to see Strus over Martin in the mid fourth.

Issue is everyone was playing really well in that group. Martin, Strus, Herro, Duncan all killed it today.

He blew the game open for us in the 3rd for sure

We're going to have some off-shooting nights but hopefully we won't for a while. we have a decent home stretch but a tough game against 6ers on a back to back after next game

dshearn · Post #314 » by **dshearn** » Thu Jan 13, 2022 3:01 am

As long as the team has some semblance of shot selection, so many of these players are interchangeable. If Herro can keep what happened tonight up ( Tyler has had two strong assist games in half a season), they might even be able to survive Kyle Lowery being out for a stretch.

Lilseb93 · Post #315 » by **Lilseb93** » Thu Jan 13, 2022 3:02 am

Obviously we won't go undefeated at home, but you keep putting up 7-3 stretches every 10 games, you'll have a good record. This is a quality team that's only going to get better as Jimmy, Bam, and hopefully Oladipo at some point come come back.

Remember early on when the narrative was that Herro couldn't run a team? We are using the regular season to work on guys games. Now we are seeing them develop. It's nice.

Yurt a team high +19.

This Miami Heat is a dangerous one! Great coaching staff plus so a good bench is a scary team to face in the playoffs.

Yurtebayo with 13/10/6

We got another one here people
