Rewatching the game and it is tough to see the refs not making defensive foul calls against the Spurs because they dont want them in foul trouble. Its hard for me to be very critical of the Heat offense when there are clear fouls on drives.

I mean he probably fouled bam on the dunk as well, there was definitely contact in the air between them. There’s a league agenda for Wemby right now, the league needs its next GOAT contender with LeBron having 1 foot out the door

How do we not get the pick back at this point?

This Memphis guy is probably behind Bam’s career revival. Got him playing like Jaren Jackson out there.

u would think with the gambling allegations the NBA would pause the superstar calls because our guys were attacking the paint getting banged up with no whistle but get called for the same thing on defense. only way to beat the refs is to hit your 3s tho and we couldnt do that

The unnecessary shade

Corner 3 is arguably the most important 3 to be able to hit, especially to bailout players attacking the rim who can’t get off a good shot. Above the break will come with time, it’s part of development. But yes, I’m aware the forum thinks Bam is the same player now as he was when we drafted him

Why so sensitive lol? Bam is a great player man, unlike you when it comes to Herro, I have nothing negative to say about Bam. But yes, Bam has been showing an efficiency level from the corners that I am actually liking a lot. If he can continue to develop it, it's big plus for the team.

Was just funny to see. You were defending you boy Herro and then others but had to throw a jab at our best player in the process so was a little ironic. Made me chuckle, that’s all!

Barry is COOKIN

This sounds legitimately fraudulent

this is going to be super interesting going forward. From what I was reading both the NBA and leagues like the NFL allow teams to hide proprietary information about players. To a degree you can hide the performance of a player during trade negotiations. Clearly I am a dude repeating stuff other dudes wrote on the internet. I am not in any way shape or form making an educated observation. Having said that:

Article XIV section 3 “No Member shall make any other material misrepresentation or fail to disclose any other material information during the Trade Call.”


That truly is a step above state law, and removes the material omission loop hole. You know the whole " He never asked about the transmission...I didn't lie about it...."


Clearly there is a failure to disclose.

Has anyone on the Heat said they did not know about Rozier's investigation? Maybe they knew and rolled the dice anyway...

Edrice was busting that ass, the numbers confirm the eye test. Just needed to push through a little more to get that one. Wild that this is the first time the spurs have ever started 5-0.

It is crazy to think those great Spurs teams never started the season 5-0. Probably due to Pop load managing his veterans a week into the season.

Not sure what the deal is with Wiggins in here. Same with Herro. Wiggins will be our fourth option on offense pretty soon and he is for sure doing a hell of a job doing everything else that the normal fan normally don't see, that significantly impacts winning. And he is for sure an impact player on offense that can give you 14 to 30 points every time he is on the floor. As a fourth option! But ya'll want him to be Tatum.

When it comes to Herro, same crap, he was a 1st option (he is not supposed to be that) on a team that sucked and was swimming all year in dark waters with the whole Jimmy fiasco and he still made his first all star and had his best season ever at 25 years old, this season, he will play with other capable players specially Powell and opponents won't be able to focus on just stopping him and with Bam now being a problem behind the arc "so far" (only dependable from the corners btw), Herro will be able to play with more spacing, and without the pressure of carrying the team offensively, he will be even more efficient as a player. Do I want a super star on our team? of course, do I wish Tyler was a better defender? sure, but saying Tyler would not make this team better is just an insane take and a flawed agenda I only see a few in here pushing.

Part of the problem is that he thinks he should be and wants to be.

[contract]

Not worried about ware. We seemed hellbent on giving the lions share of shots to Bam and Wiggins which is okay when Herro and Powell are out

It's not even the shot attempts with Ware. When he's in a game just watch him. He doesn't move with a sense of urgency most times. I'm not trying to bash him but you see someone like Pelle in there and you see the effort more times in less minutes.

I get that but he still needs his shot attempts in order to get and stay engaged in the game seemingly. Spo will work him through different lineups and see what fits him best

I hate that. Shots or no shots, he's getting paid. He can't be disengaged. He can't sleepwalk his way through a game because he's not getting to score.

Some fans act like it's normal, but from my view it's hostage taking.

With ja basically wanting out, i wonder if riles makes a call.

I don't know. Pat has built contenders out of guys that have worn out their welcomes on other teams, but Ja has some serious baggage.

Political and narrative driven, and then a lot of the time the winner disappears the following year and doesn’t even make it on an all defense team

Definitely should but probably won’t, we’ll hold out for giannis but be unwilling to part with Jovic
