how many did Heat score in fourth?
Brooklyn 31…Miami 9
Yikes! We slowly avoiding turds now final qtr is the problem
help on the way guys but so is boston
Having one scorer doesn’t work in the modern nba.
Teams double Tyler, and no one can make them pay consistently. So now we’re getting Tyler Herro just forcing shots and making bad decisions. Can’t blame him too much because everyone else on Miami can’t hit a shot with any consistency.
Mickey needs to clean house, but won’t. And for a coach who’s legend status out weighs his actual production, I’m tired of hearing about him.
For a team getting murdered in the glass, he doesn’t seem to like keeping the Ware /Bam combo in. Let alone Ware/Bam/Jovic combo. Instead let’s just watch the other team get offensive rebound after offensive rebound.
I guess the rest of you all are lucky I’m not in charge, because you all love rooting on this middling franchise stuck in mediocrity purgatory of the nba. But man, this was a year they should have embraced the tank.
spot on bam ware jovic should play 30 mins a game.get abackup center,spobots been gifted great players hes nothing w/o them.the tank is hard to watch though i couldnt watch a really bad team play so from that point of view glad they didnt tank.there not that far away.wiggins is a good 2 way player.bam ware need to play 30 mins together.
i root for the Heat even when they suck coz thats what fans do. and Heat have been a winning franchise and its just hard to juggle development of players, getting stars, managing aprons, disciplining divas….lots of things to consider and what we see is just the surface. of course we want to win but chances in tanking to have a winning player in immediate future is smaller. Pat might have a lot of pride but for me its a good “pride” coz he created a winning culture. again that’s why i became a Heat fan when everyone else here in my hometown is a lakeshow or celts follower. LEZZGO HEAT!
I’m with you Manila! I don’t like to see the team play poorly but I watch the team good game or bad, good season or bad. As bad as it’s been, they can still end up 4-6. Missing the play-in is the goal. We have new players coming in, and we have a first round pick this year.
mitchell ty wiggins bam ware.only ty cant defend 1 out of 5 aint bad.need some dogs not duncs of the world
one reason to watch the heat now is eric reid he is so good.the team isnt.but its a hard watch mediocrity
look at these brothers jump wow .thats why dunc jjj jovic are so limited
That’s it for me
keshod who what is wrong with spobot.social experiement a failure
Too much redundancy of skillset limitations. Sometimes you can see it so clearly. Hopefully, the three additions coming will restore more balance.
We have to see how Mitchell does in the needed pg position. We also really need a decent backup center. But to add a player, we have to buyout someone on the roster. Most likely, contractually, it would be Burks. I would only do that if a decent backup becomes available. And not a Zeller or Dedmon. Bagley? Theis? Baldwin?
if wiggins and mitchell dont start asap id be pissed
Herro got stripped and then stood still. Not a good look.
game was way over rc
maybe bam and aja had a nice day together.bam no effort
same problem not athletic enough and when tys cold were fkd
got punked in 4th tsk
mitchell and wiggins have to start for us
I’m glad Pat found a taker for Jimmy, but shoulda traded Bam too. This team isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Inconsistent. No scoring options outside of Herro.
Losing by double digits to a team 17 games under .500.
def agree bam overrated above avg player
need a ss zac
wow watford nice move on niko
turd in fourth yikes
the want to win and desire of bam tonight unacceptable
athletes winning out.bam didnt leave the fn ground wtf
I don’t like Ware being taken out.
Better get their sh*t together like now!
ty meter down
tyler a bit off…already excited for allstar?
great game 2 even teams nailbiter
just got that before goaltending well done claxton
Terry 3!!!
your not lagging aNYMORE
on and off lol
jovic quit over dribbling son your not getting through those brothers
just need some push… GO HEAT!!
this would be considered a bad bad loss
Yes
lots of time cmon beach boys
k love related to one did u know that?lead singer
nets have no talent just bunch athletes
the wrong mitchell looks like a little pit bull looking forward to him to
See, hfl, now you heard it from Eric about Mitchell.
hearing it from u works for me
if anybody would say they would not want kd they are not a heat fan plain and simple.its like saying they wouldnt want lebron now.those generational players who are still at that level are wanted by every team in nba
Nah, I don’t agree with that. I wouldn’t want Ja here amongst other players. Does that mean I’m not a fan? No.
i said kd not ja.yeah memphis seems to do better without the gun wielder
Yes, I know you said that, but just because somebody has an opinion about a particular player does not mean that they are not a fan.
if jaime had hops hed score 5 more pts a game
yes good timeout spo last 3min
pacers can compete with big 3?
No. Wade and Bosh are retired.
good one but i was talking about kd kyrie james
finally JJJ
mediocre bball mediocre team no other way around it wiggins should help,kd needed next year
Do you have a handy remote?
Yeah no idea how some don’t want him here. His offense would be what this team needs. I get the age but he still has 1-2 good years
No doubt. I guess some don’t want the prima Donna factor, but it comes with the territory.
let me look at his #s this year be right back 27pts 52 % 40% nah we dont need a player like that,whoelse besides vagibugi said that ,i would buy you a dinner at boma if we got him
this is a good timeout. if they make a good run to end this 3rd
dunc d why leave cam
bam ware jovic figment of our imagination
They have been using it in the fourth quarter
why just the 4th spo scratcher best front line we have.no backup c get one
Because they stagger the rest for those players in the first 3 quarters.
3 best frontline players should play together at least 20 minutes
that wasnt a foul on hh
Dunc stealing it back
Sweet!
ty these brothers have quick hands son
wares offense where is it .is bam dating aja wilson
bam looking comfy shooting 3s crotty hes shooting 28% homer
Tranquilo
tony fernandez is that the ss for the bluejays 2q
