A poor first showing. I argued last season that every game counts. Some disagreed (at least one, the same one that told me I was wrong when I said Ware would not start on day 1 of the season). Just for reference, there is this from the SS Dave Hyde:
”Two more wins would’ve earned them the fourth seed in the Eastern Conference, kept them from the play-in game where Jimmy Butler was hurt and avoided their having to play top seed Boston in a futile opening round.
Four more wins would’ve got them the second seed.β€œ
Maybe the Heat need me back home – I’ll be there Saturday.

Definitely can’t over react to the loss. But, can’t feel great about this performance either. Hopefully it’s just an off nite, a rare one where both Bam and especially Jimmy were not as effective as they usually are.

heat for life

is bam ever gonna change his passive mindset in scoring jimmys old now bam

heat for life

at least we get to play atl charl wash quite a bit

heat for life

pat riley ct does any other team do that thats kinda weird

InsuranceMan

Somebody throw a clipboard or something

heat for life

looking forward to sunmans comments he tells it like it is

heat for life

we honored pat tonight deservedly but as a few heat fans have pointed out he has been bad last few years

Zac

Spo can’t be serious about putting the starters back in down 30? Give us the rookies. No one wants to watch these lazy fools play the last 10 minutes.

heat for life

u can see the way jjj plays hes got game not super athletic though that hurts him at times.

heat for life

its not just the shooting % its the way they look.small slow.that could change.what does a thomas brynat do for u.what does dunc do for u ditto shnozic.need more length more athleticism

heat for life

dunc would have been good in the 1960s.shnozic would be good in europe

Reality Czech

Clearly Riley iced the wrong team. πŸ˜•

2qbn

Genius status revoked lol. What are you doing here? πŸ™‚

Reality Czech

Just checking in. Unfortunately, the Heat checked out.

2qbn

Stay checked out. The manure still stinks in here like always

heat for life

way to long that half time

heat for life

who in here want thomas bryant playing before ware.is spo in here he might be the only one

2qbn

RC is a genius

Zac

Can’t believe we’re still watching Bryant and Robinson when we’re down 25 points and we got a first rounder we can play at center and a second rounder we can play at SG/SF.

heat for life

hes not called spobot for no reason

heat for life

miami midgets eric likes short teams

InsuranceMan

Turd quarter 🫠 PTSD from 23-24 3Q’s

ManilaHeat

What the hell happened?!

Zac

Same team as last year. Can’t shoot, can’t rebound. Don’t show up in the 3rd quarter. Jimmy’s on vacation.

InsuranceMan

TB31!!

ManilaHeat

😭😭😭

heat for life

i love me some josh christopher

heat for life

bams still young no excuse for him

2qbn

Looking like one of those games where everything goes wrong for one team and the other can’t do wrong.

Zac

Looking like the 2023-24 Miami Heat. No offense for long stretches. Bad 3 point shooting. And in general awful 3rd quarters.

2qbn

It’s game 1. I have seen awful passes and terrible D to go along with what you said. I take nothing away from one total game.

Zac

It is one game this year (well 3 quarters) but when the majority of the rotation is the same as last year, is it really just 1 game?

heat for life

same team as last year.i really think ware can change this sht,but hes not ready total bull sht

2qbn

Dude, stop. Even JJJ hit a rookie wall and you know this, but love being obtuse

2qbn

They are shooting 34%. I don’t care what team it is, you don’t win shooting 34%, and this “majority” rotation shot 12% better as a team last year.

Zac

If the team is gonna compete like it’s an exhibition, can we at least put in the rookies? See something interesting in what’s turning into a blowout?

heat for life

the rookies jump run and shoot it pretty good .this is a boring team to watch with old jimmy

heat for life

banchero does stuff bam cant do on offense

heat for life

put jjj in there jeez jovic not nba ready

2qbn

lol

heat for life

same team as last year and jims a year older what can we expect

heat for life

ball game wow thought the knicks looked bad

2qbn

lol

heat for life

when does spo play bam and ware together.shnozic made a few layups not ready for nba.

2qbn

Season over

heat for life

81 more but this is an indication though.jims just too old.get rid of him .make jjj the feature player.jjj always wants to score when in.jim and bam not so much

2qbn

It’s such a long season. You do you and enjoy your time off

Zac

That was a rough start to the 3rd quarter. Feels like I’ve seen this story before.

ManilaHeat

C’mon boys
Go Heat!

heat for life

too small too slow same team.ware is he

2qbn

It’s the first game. You know Spo always uses the first 10-15 games doing all kinds of roster shuffling and testing lineups. This is known

2qbn

Pat is awesome. He was icing the Magic. Get with the program, guys πŸ˜‰
