Lead was down to 13 with 7 more minutes. then trent cnt miss from 3 and barnes attacked lead back to 20+. Heat only made six 3s, trent made 8! it was their night Heat was off from every stats. maybe forgot to bring their coffee left it in bklyn
maybe need jjj back
charge this loss to experience hehe
its clear jimmys aged. not a night in night out stud.good news we have jjj and caleb healthy.bad news neither are superstars.so we do not have a super star on our roster.ss is a top 10-12 player in league donovan mitchell is a superstar if he wants out get him.givem ty and pick
And they did this without Siakam. No sugarcoating it, definitely some weaknesses exposed. They are not tired, not heavily injured, not playing a team trying hard or playing well. Not enough two way players, shows up against the more athletic teams. and their are more athletic than Toronto. It’s staring us right in the face
that is true.need 2 way players to compete heat have to many one way players and a zero way player.(lowry)
throwing in the towel. good game raps but we might not see you in the playoffs.
While getting blown out, I just went to get pizza. It got ugly fast, I’ll chalk this up to being a trap game, on to the next.
Pizza got pineapple in it? lol
Lol nah I got 1bbox pepperoni, 1 box sausage, and 1 box supreme
Wow! Drooling here
Get you a slice, it’ll make you feel good after lost lol
bam where was this in the 1 2 3 qtr little late sir
raps defended him well. it happens props them.
why is old man jim in eric
i guess we surrender eh? 4+min 22pt deficit…raps cant miss
crotty ass kissing dunc little much we get it john hes improved enough please we know that
just go up strong Caleb and draw the foul
exactly theres no way if he goes up he doesnt get fouled right under basket soft
has boston lost at home yet?
13 goes back to 19 another ouch!
3s not just falling for Heat ouch
this. no matter what you do, you just cant beat a team that is shooting lightsout in 3s
defense!!
This is getting respectable.
bam learned pump fake from jjj
haha the dwade pump fake
god father of pump fakes
got a shot here
ty gives 100% effort every night what i like the most about him
ty 19 attempts already bam 8
Bucks are doing worse than us.
no giannis but yeah
13 pt lead
its either we lose by 5 or less or win by a pt or two 😁😁😁
Got to give the Heat some credit. They are playing hard, cut the giant lead almost in half.
there’s the fight…lets gooo!!!
toronto u will not like rj barrett by the end of the year
jovic grab rebound quit tapping ball
lets go Jimmy!
jovic johnson just like magic there
lowry ty what do u get with that bc.1st rnd exit.pat get terry pls
if there’s anyone more embarrassed with this, its the players themselves. a gut punch, a really hard one, this first half. i want to see a fight in them at least bring it down to less than 20 by the 4th. lets go Heat! I will just be here…you guys can go, i love you all lol
how do u know there all multimillionaires.check clears manana
lol and how do you know they dont?
its one game vs toronto in january
Raps playing loose seems they have nothing to play for at 15-25. it happens. can Heat still come back from this ginourmous deficit? i wanna see it hehe
cleveland omer pack poplar very good college players
watching my canes sorry heaters
let caleb loose please
I was hoping they would cut it to Bout30man. Oh well.
jovic nice stroy what is he where does he play go back to europe son youd be the best player there
Still a project here. In my opinion, the lack of defense was worse than the lack of offense. But saying that is not bailing on the team. I love the Heat. Criticism is appropriate tonite, but only in the making of a point that this team, despite its 24-17 record, is only slightly above average. And Jimmy can’t carry it anymore. We need help, and the Raptors are exposing it. I just want us to honestly assess where this team is at and see reality. If we do that, this drubbing will be worth it.
jimmy can carry us occasionally u forget about jjj and caleb is back let them all play together then we can make some fair judgements 30
I hear you but do not agree. JJJ is good, but he won’t fix everything. The truth is this is a first round team, no more, and you know it judging by your last post.
I am embarrassed. All the weaknesses are showing up at once.
one game lol
Can’t blame anyone who wants to leave to watch reruns of The Honeymooners. 😬
Defend Miami, defend!
need more calee less jovic
Hope they learn from this.
jimmy just cant do it every nightdoesnt have energy stamina or lebron gene in him
Last 2 first halfs, the Heat is 1 for 25 from 3. Ouch!!
They hot from 3, can’t do anything about that, plus we ain’t scoring, so that’s a recipe for disaster. Hopefully they can mount a come back.
Heat fans bailing out on their team…typical. Lets go Heat!!
Haha. I admit I might be there myself tonight.
toronto next game loses.every team can play couple great games in a year
wow great ball movement.trade best player one night theyll ball out,love to have gotten quickley btw
Guess I will watch the Panthers. This is atrocious.
what zoo west palm or miami
This a trap game.
keep jim out whole night bam to surrender
Of course you must know that’s not gonna happen. Maybe if they’re still down 30+ end of 3rd, yes.
thadeus young still playing wow
when eric retires.the heat will not be the same dont retire eric u r the miami heat
Reid wins again, nice!
