In the 7 games before Rozier got here, Heat scored 100 or more 2 times. In the 7 games since, Heat scored 100 or more 5 times. He is not THE reason for the change, but he’s contributing to it. Rozier has been shooting particularly poorly, and I believe that will certainly improve. However, he really isn’t a high percentage shooter, so we shouldn’t expect that.
hes a major upgrade over turtle but thats not saying much
The same guy that said don’t judge a player until 25 games in.
Who said Jaquez was first or second best Heat player. Now he wants him benched
Who said Bam was one of our best players, then called him a bum.
Who said HH should be in the lineup, then, please get him off the court.
If you don’t like a hfl opinion, just wait a half or a game or a week.
It is what it is. I accept it. At least you’re consistent with your inconsistency.
Terry got used to playing loose w/out any real pressure in Cha. In Heat jersey he gets to taste what its like to be competitive. Sure he played with Boston before but that was ages ago. Once they figure this out, come playoffs we’ll be a different team that nobody wants to face.
Mr negativity. Spots on that leopard will never change. Just look back over this one thread and see how many negative comments about players, coaches, and even x players. Pretty relentless. The same ole same ole.
Let me see if I can do an hfl…
Just beat a cellar dweller nothing more and the previous win was catching a good team on their bad night. We ain’t gonna win much next with Tyler playmaking, Jimmy coasting and Bam inconsistent. Terry trade not much to show Arison should ask Pat to retire and spobot $$$ not good. Sure they reach po but they get bounced off early.
So… how’d I do? 😅😁🤗
I’m calling an exorcist to save you!
Terry Rozier 15 points on 15% shooting.
Read my lips. His shooting thus far has been poor. I totally agree with you. He needs to get those numbers closer to his normal average, which is just okay. But 11-11 ft, 8 rebounds, 5 assists, zero turnovers. And decent defense. Post game show called him and Love the game’s difference makers. We don’t win this game without either one of them. As always, I’ll go with the paid experts. And before you suggest they have to be nice or be fired, I have now listed multiple times in the threads when Eric, John, and Ron have been critical of the Heat in general or specific players. Maybe you missed reading those when I wrote them, but they are in hhh archives.
we on a tear. lets string them w’s
the rosters better then the way we are playing luckily got 2 months to get better if we played the knicks in a 7 game series tomorrow we wouldnt win a game.i think right now the knicks are the best team in east
Great fan! You fall in and out of love very quickly.
ok were gonna win every game and win the finals
There you go
We wouldn’t know that. No one does unless the playoffs comes along. That’s what you said last season also 😁😁😁
That’s 1000% correct!
teams not playing good now got 2 months to figure it out.its up to jimmy
the heat now are in a dory funk but its february.eventually gotta string weeks of good bball.right now id have to say show me
More like Terry funk lol
how bout the funk bros.miss gordon solie
poor wash fans there team is soo bad no good young players kk and poole are so erratic.glad im not a wizzards fan
We got a win streak going 🙌
Yezzzzz! W!!
Jimmy good first half…then only 5pts in second but thats when they made a run in the third so all good 😁
A w is a w. Yay
Take them all day, especially with Pacers possibly losing tonight
Rozier didn’t shoot well, but had a good floor game, and was perfect from the ft line. He got to the line more this game, more then anytime in Lowry’s heat career, which was an added dimension. 15 points, 8 rebounds, and 5 assists.
He’s slowly finding his spots and how to contribute on this team. Only getting better
Can’t wait to see him, when everything is clicking for him.
if he buried some js which were gonna need against upcoming teams it would be a great game.he needs to start making some js.
He will start making the js soon, he already has 90 made 3’s on the season, just gotta get his groove back.
That was close to my 15 and 7-8 assists. He’s contributing to winning even though he’s shooting poorly.
Since you was so close to the numbers, maybe you can help me with my lotto ticket lol.
u said that about turtle when he was hurting us more than helping but terry is just a better athlete which is the difference
does anybody here think we can beat the clips
if players 2 – 15 dont pick up their games dont see to many ws in feb
jimmy did u think this game was over about half hr ago i did
Jimmy gotta drive it to the basket for a foul or high percentage shot.
Bam clutch shot
friendly bounce shot is way off still
That doesn’t mean it wasn’t a clutch basket
def clutch basket. shots so fkn off though, lately.
I’ll still take it..friendly bounce and all
Thank you refs 🙏
Kispert playing his best game ever against us.
jimmy where r u
abdia 9 th pick ill take precious at 20
wheres all wash young drafted good players ,nada lol
Coulibali,deni and kispert are decent
caleb jrich dunc decent wheres all there good players theyve been drafting high every year
There gm sucks
Herro with an ice cream scoop
j rich had his great game will we ever see that again?
Yes we will see it in the playoffs
Bam relentless on the boards
Go Heat! Finish up good. Keep them below 100 and pick up another W
Uhm… those ft misses doesn’t help boys
ty nobody can stop u from the rim pls take it there a little more
kispert wow dudes got some hops and can shoot
Please no collapse
wheres kyle going knicks have 4 guys from villanova.hope he goes there and makes them worse
Blow them out! I need some jovic and orob minutes 😩
pool reminds me of jon starks just wont stop shooting
We about to have 3 players with a double double.
Is that good? 😉
Nope….that’s great!
wow poole made a shot i cant believe it
Nice hook shot through 2 defenders 👌
ty is def quicker thaN terry
Got that measured, do you?
just watching the tube pretty obvious to me
Maybe make an appointment with your optometrist?
Especially that people like you and actually remember when tvs had tubes
Pretty sure he used the app on your phone that measures inches and feet, so it’s legit
You’re killing me 😆
ty 2qbn
bam is broken now
Juan wick cutthroat to the paint .
What’s wrong with Jaquez someone asks? Nothing.
Jaquez says hfl hold my beer
All he wanted was his puppy back. Now look at them
Doing big things now 😌
Poole and kuzma a bad duo, wiz need to give us kuzma for the low.
maybe he’s playing bad on purpose so that they want to get rid of him
I hope he continues his poor play, they already dropped his price down to 1 first round pick.
no thanks on kuzma need a banger
Heat taking over, soon we’re gonna hear Heat chants in arena.
There’s that run 😁😁😁
3 19 at home wow this team should have gotten wemby not pop the ahole
Good guy, great coach. One of your conspiracy theories, lol. I had to have a little chuckle when I read about Silver’s extension, coming not long after Spo’s . Yay for all 3!
pop had that ac system turned off.interviews like belichic.great coach doesnt deserve admiral duncan and wemby somethings fishy
Get over it, you’ll get an ulcer
Great d jrich
mj the best bball player ever might be the worse owner.gm ever
That was a great third quarter 👏
wheres john wall and bradley beale.wow this team is a hot mess.
Omg what a shot !! 😳
Jrich turn !
Miami destroying wiz on the boards.
jims out
Rozier’s worst game is still better then most of Lowry’s games.
def true
Great pass rozier!
Old love already got a double double
He’s had some really good plays in this quarter. Loved when he went straight to the bucket, stopped, defender goes by, layup
Definitely had a lot of good moments, I like that post hook shot, he hit earlier, and that 3.
