With Miami down by only 1 point, Bam just needed to drive and score, get fouled or pass it off to someone like Powell. Instead he hung around the perimeter running the clock down envisioning a “Hero Shot” from the 3 point line (ala Steph Curry). He got double teamed and couldn’t get a half-ass shot off. Low IQ play. No time to dwell on it. Second of B2B vs Sacramento on Saturday.
at certain times theres always brainfarts with this guy never fails.overall very good game never great game with him,the opitomy of a good player who was on the border of greatness but for whatever reason just never happened.kept me up all night im still dwelling on it.what he did there at the end.thats where herro is needed he loves the big moment loves it .i like alot about ty especially in big moments.ty is a super talented offensive player bam is an all round good player.ty wants the ball at the end just physically limited.bam is not physically limited just at times mentally.bam takes it to hoop which he should have done with 3 secs left he prob gets fouled.
u cant play bam at center that much hes just to small.hasnt the heat figured that out by now.get another center pat
ware sukd tonight but wendell carter rebounds again hurt us .ware needs to play even when he suks .
Entertaining game, sucks to lose.
ereid rc a heat loss not good 2 of 3 are good
Well its just a point lol
wow that was funny man your a funny cheerleader
maybe bams use to handing off to dunc should of had dunc in there lol
ware was bad tonight but we need his length bams just to small
bam very rarely has a game w/o a few clear negative plays
last few minutes bam doesnt want to see tape again got out rebounded by carter at crucial times
Tough way to lose a good game
Bam had to drive after not being able to hand off. Had a couple of seconds
why didnt he hand ball off to powell he had a step on suggs.bam at times brain doesnt work right brainfarts been saying that for years about him
I’d have to see the replay, but, yes, if he had even a few inches of space, that’s the guy that has to take the last shot.
he had space wagner was waiting for powell but powell could score on franz or get foul.bam cost us game at end.gotta hand that balloff
awful awful bam
bamwtf was that just terrible
Bad last play!
give ball to powell he crossed right by him bam saw him elected to try carter on for size .had plenty of time

Wagner #8, Paolo #1, Suggs #5, Carter #7. It’s the upside of losing for a period of years.
carter suggs been nothing suggs always hurt
Carter 12/8 42% 3p isn’t nothing. Suggs 14/4/5, has played 17 of the 22 games this season
the way ware has played np not playing him.
wagners a diff maker tonight
franz wow impreessive
Mitchell has a great first step.
Quick and crafty

Yup. Could’ve had 16-18 now
when u got a thoroughbred ready to rebound guard and pop a 3 occasionally and when u have a guy whos missed 41 of his last 49 shots and your playing him i have a major major spobot issue
