not sure whos gonna have better career jjj or jovic.looked like jjj at the beginning but now im leaning toward jovic
spo patty played with duncan and parker son ,never a starter .20 years later hes your 15th player.rather see swider on the ct
nikolas defense for almost a 7 footer is sweet
That was fast. Recap already up
We might meet see this team in pos. One more game vs Cavs.
Props to our #1 who had another 30 point game!
another, when was the last 30 pt game been a while rc.but yes he was excellent tonight.all for not if not for kyles replacement
Boooo….should’ve had 40 lol
terry had to have watch dwade films and patterned his game after him he has so many wadeish moves
With him and Jimmy that makes 2 wade disciples.
jimmys a marquette warrior but his game not like wade.terrys built like wade tad shorter plays just like him
Jimmy game basically close to wade , he doesn’t do the euro that much, but still got pumpfake and 1 like wade, he got the post moves like wade, and the middy, especially that wade esque turnaround fadeaway/jumper.
true but terrys body looks like wades same type of build every move he makes looks like wade.jimmy not so much
5 of 6 from 3 from T-roz sheesh 😳
And some difficult makes 😳😳
Dang, I need to watch the whole game then, I only watched the last 3 minutes.
Excellent win! Terry won us this one. No one should be questioning him anymore. He is our third option, thank goodness.
There were lessons to be learned in this game about utilizing the rotation, if only heeded. Robinson and Bryant clearly have earned rotation minutes.
uh sir u gave up on the heat.
Hey, he’s a fan who was a bit inconsolable after that last game. So was I.
u went at him a little bit rc how can u give up after game 67.u give up when theyve been eliminated thats a true fan
could kyle lowry have done what terry just did,lol
Some of the most bizarre arguments made on these threads this year have been on this subject.
We’ll be reminded that we’re still in 8th place and somehow it’s Rozier’s fault and getting Rozier and Delon for Lowry and a pick was a bad trade.
great trade not good great
Kyle can’t do what rozier did… period .
of course not, 10 years ago yes
Fantastic! Good for the Heat, good for Rozier!!!
good for the fans cant forget about us
Yes, all those Heat fans for life 😆
always a heat fan .criticize a little to much but of course want them to win just get frustrated when i see bad play or dunc defense
WWWW!!!!
Miami heat 🥵 🔥
yess ty terry wade wow
Scary Terry was definitely won us this game, and it’s funny because some of yall was doubting the acquisition.
at the beginning little disappointed but lately hes a baller.we got a legit 3rd option
Definitely a legit 3rd option, also another player that can hit clutch shots at the end.
I definitely gotta watch this game from start to finish
at least jjj didnt dunc foul
Let’s goo heat!
Just got home from playing basketball, what a great clutch shot from scary Terry. And what happened to bam?
Back contusion
Damm how long he out for?
Bam’s time to rest lol
Lol he needs as much rest as he can.
Defense!!! Go Heat!!
Another!! Wow!!
I mean it’s great that he hit it, but that can’t be the offense with 8 on the shot clock. Step back 3’s, with the game on the line and time on the clock feels too risky.
True. He had the guts to take it which is good. But, if he missed, a lot of people would’ve been on his case.
omg terry wade your awesome rc is right
OH YESSSS
lavert ty
terry is def our 3rd option and a good one rc is right
We got Jimmy. I like our chances.
flagrant foul
Clearly a foul
terry wade saved the game
Yeah, but we were better with Lowry LMAO!
aliens lost in space or is it the oregon dude thats been saying that sht
Terr333333
Both Bryant and Robinson were playing well. Both out and Cavs get a critical rebound.
robinson especially
lets go jimmy! takeover time
shnozic gotta make that wide fn open come on son
jim and terry not much else
So in the last 7 games, Miami is 2-5, with losses to the Wizards and 76ers missing their best player. And now are down in the 4th quarter to a team also missing their best player. It’s not looking good for this years Miami team. Only hope is they turn it on in the playoffs…but the regular season heat are a middling to bad squad.
First things first, we have to get into the playoffs.
palyers 4 – 15 not very good jim bam terry all we got to count on tys always hurt
mr 10 day contract is stinking it up
no dono max mobley gotta be a w jims playing
You have been watching the team all season, right? No game has gotta be a win.
det wash huh lol
This is Jimmy time.
terry wade nice shot put shot
Heat going small last 5min
Finally Caleb makes one lol
caleb jjj not playing good
Caleb offensively struggling but need his d. Just keep shooting if open
Finish this quarter strong
Let’s go 1 1/3 quarters!
Lol
Someone please put handcuffs on Patty, my god.
spobot special
Oh there you go…Go Heat!!!
