pj wash lively ad glad we dont have to face them in playin

heatforlife

tim legler is great he should be on #1 team

heatforlife

sac dallas tough game to call i say dallas theyre pretty healthy

ManilaHeat

its 3-0 vs these Bulls in play-in. Heat becoming the best play-in team since its inception

heatforlife

maybe thats their goal

SunManFromDogBone

Great game! I think OKC may be getting our pick this year. We’ll get it back next year if we make the playoffs. Great experience for Ware and Mitchell. I think Hawks will be getting their feathers plucked on Friday (God willing and if the creek don’t rise).

Hothothoopsfan4life

Mitchell has been in the playoffs with Sacramento if I’m not mistaken I could be wrong

SunManFromDogBone

Yes. They didn’t make it out of first round in2023 and lost in play-ins last year. Hasn’t been on team with players who have been to the finals. Different mentality entirely with players who have been there before. Bam, Herro, Robinson, Wiggins, Highsmith, etc.

heatforlife

trade ty still?

SunManFromDogBone

Everything is negotiable for the right price. I wouldn’t trade him for a Lillard or a Booker plus give up picks and players. I might do it for Ant. Preferably, Miami adds to it’s core, it doesn’t subtract from it.

Reality Czech

Funny, I thought of exactly the same player – Ant. Herro plus a young player or a pick would be good.

heatforlife

whos the hawks second best player.cariss lavert and terrance mann hurt us last time

SunManFromDogBone

Jalen Johnson injured. Dyson Daniels all-NBA type defensive player.

ManilaHeat

booo…Tyler did not get his 40

SunManFromDogBone

Yeah, we bad.

Reality Czech

Old fashioned butt kicking

ManilaHeat

birdies next…

Bout30man

Going to be hard for any of us to root for draft picks.

Reality Czech

True

ManilaHeat

yeah…im still torn

Reality Czech

True

ManilaHeat

announcers lol

ManilaHeat

they dont want to get back to the game haha

heatforlife

cassidy hubbard retiring in a blowout maybe if this game was close and they did this wow id never watch espn again

Reality Czech

Yes you would. If a game you wanted to see was only on their station, you wouldn’t miss it.

heatforlife

wiggins can defend dont mind him in

ManilaHeat

Wiggs!!

heatforlife

slo mo so solid like him in there.burks was bad tonight?

Reality Czech

Not really. Didn’t shoot much.

heatforlife

1 for 4 is bad.his d is average

Reality Czech

Ah, yes, glad you’re back and being yourself

ManilaHeat

another lol

Reality Czech

Yeah, he had me worried earlier. Nice to see him back and being his regular negative self, finding the black cloud around the silver lining. 😆

heatforlife

i want everybody to play good when they dont they will hear about it

heatforlife

had to throw somebody under the bus.tired of dunc ripping getting bored with it

Reality Czech

Yup, you need to start grooming someone in case Duncan is gone. Of course, at the moment, you still have Jaquez, Jovic, and Pelle to unfairly denigrate, so plenty of opportunities.

2qbn

Plenty for sure, but I’m still a little stunned. Teams score 100 points and it’s crazy to find out not all are on Duncan, so this is a bit g step 😜

heatforlife

this is why dunc cant play d

Reality Czech

We got some defenders in that trade!

Reality Czech

Want Herro to get the 40 too!

ManilaHeat

ManilaHeat

thank you Ty hehe

SunManFromDogBone

Butler said yesterday he didn’t want to be Batman in Miami. He wanted to be Robin in SF If he had stayed in Miami he could have been Herro’s Robin. Pendejo.

Bout30man

The Heat, led by Ty, standing up to the pressure.

Reality Czech

I am still in awe of that defensive play. Pure poetry.

heatforlife

ware height matters

heatforlife

Man, the Hawks aren’t gonna know what hit ’em.

Reality Czech

I say this is the oddest first half of the season.

SunManFromDogBone

WOW! h4l not here and Heat up by 24 at half. Hmm? 🤔

heatforlife

saw tony danza tonight had tix for few months

ManilaHeat

Wait…has Tyler missed already?

Reality Czech

Based on his own type of theories, I must conclude that the Heat are better when hfl isn’t here. Pay attention Spobot.

ManilaHeat

70+ pts in the first half!

ManilaHeat

Spo’s got a new tactic. He takes out Tyler in middle of quarters then checks him in to finish it. Good move I guess
