4 game winning streak, and thats without Okaro White! hot daym
Please Surya, fix this ‘you’re posting too fast’ or ‘it looks like you posted that previously’ ( or something like that).
This Is the best 3 game span of rebounding in bam’s career.
agreed. Looks like Bam flipped some switch this season
Whatever switch he flipped… I love it because he has taken his game to another level.
With all the guys out, how come Hampton, Cain, and Swider not getting any minutes
Maybe we just really needed the win tonight. I mean we need all the ones we can get.
I think Hampton got hurt in the gleague tonight, Cain only played like 40 secs, should of got more minutes, and I guess he wanted love over swider, and Thomas.
Great win, down 3 players 👏
Big W for short handed road team
Yay!!!
Solid win!
Not the Heat if not a close ending but a win!
Surprised no more hack a Highsmith lol
Oh shit… Lowry being an asshole, got the foul… LMFAO

Damn we keep a lead better with this squad… I know I know… It’s the Hawks.
Hawks still a good team with a good coach.
Dagger turnover
This starting to get spicy.
Just need to make your 2 point shots
Hack A Highsmith?
Weird right smh
Was just coming to comment on hack a Highsmith. Lol. It’s a new strategy that’s for sure. That said I feel like Miami would gladly take 1 point a possession from here on out.
