#NBA #MiamiHeat #JimmyButler #BamAdebayo #NikolaJovic
After all of that talk about benching Tyler Herro.. he is by far our best player
Yes he is!
Yup, and It's not even close. All the Tyler haters been quite for a min😅
@@davidlopez3119 He made a lot of people eat they words this offseason
As a former Tyler herro hater, he’s doing great this season. I take back everything I said. Everyone else around him has to step it up
Yeah, it's almost like it's a new season 😮
Bam was talking big, saying he was going to take 5 3s a game but won't even shoot a single one. Secondly, why does Bam shy away from taking shots in the 4thQ
Because he can’t shoot.
He’s weak mentally
Gotta be in rhythm he couldn't make nothing 😂
I think the biggest issue here is they were not guarding him at the three.
Centers are killing Bam this year!
Because no one is playing small ball anymore. The same tricks Spo used to use and abuse won't work in today's NBA. And the front office hasn't done this team any favors.
Our leaders Bam and Jimmy aren't scorers that's the problem.
Jimmy's best option for our team is playing PG, only way to get Jimmy to be apart of the offense. Bam should not be the only big on the floor at no point anymore
And bench Rozier and Jovic
We’re better on the road, super concerned about defending home court
Welcome to the club sir i applaud you, the only down side is we're no longer a running team. And I'm ok with that
Keep rozier bench jovic start Ware @@julioinfanteramos6535
start rozier Herro butler bam ware together bet the games be different from the others pelle Larsson duncan Robinson Jamie Jaquez Jr nikola jovic Kevin love for the second starters
Man, all those positive vibes in the preseason dried up quickly. This road trip is gonna expose this team. The roster is poorly constructed and we’re way too close to 2nd apron to be a play-in team for 3 consecutive seasons. And the idea of going small AGAIN is making me sick.
Lol
That's what a mediocre team that has been run back for many years gives you. Not to mention a lazy front office.
BAM ADEBAYO IS NOT AN ALL STAR PLAYER, HE IS ONLY AN ELITE ROLE PLAYER.
harsh truth tbh, Bam wants the accolades of a Star without consistently putting All- Star worthy work.
Bam is good about complaining about he supposed to win a defensive player off the year but the men can't shoot to save his life ,jovic trade that kid the next time they have tha chance
Bam is NOT a franchise cornerstone!
Don't even talk about Herro right now he's our star he plays very well.
Herro has been great, but this roster currently does not have a star.
I don’t know if Spo is ever going to realize that Niko is a guard. He did his best impression of PF but really he’s ball handling playmaker above all.
This the game Highsmith got the starting position from jovic. Also, if it wasn't for Highsmith, we would have been blown out by double-digit
Agree bench Rozier and Jovic. Star Highsmith and JJJ
@@julioinfanteramos6535jovic is actually trash… he big for nthn
@julioinfanteramos6535 that's dumb to do start rozier Herro butler bam ware bench jovic haywood Highsmith
@@julioinfanteramos6535 If you bench Jovic, the starting lineup is gonna get decimated on the boards. You can't bench Rozier AND Jovic. They don't play well together. You gotta pick one and stagger them. Rozier wants to pound the ball and Niko wants to get the offense moving. They're diametrically opposed players.
Losing is Losing. A 6'4 guy at the 4 that isn't a consistent shooter is not the answer.
Heat culture dying off .. Heat culture looking like a lot of bad habits, soft, bad execution and losing
Bam ain't it offensively, no capability to punish a mismatch
The opposite is actually true. Bam usually slaughters weak centers, but withers against bigger, more powerful centers (regardless of their skill). This is the reason we need to get him more minutes at power forward.
@@chadholmes3956 he can’t shoot he’s not playing the 4
@@MultiBluedog123 Neither can Jimmy, but he bullies people in his position who are smaller. There's a reason Jimmy is ineffective against big defenders as well.
Hey Spo. We don't have enough....
Tell that to Pat and Mickey
trade Bam and Jimmy for Gainnis
Is giving the keys to the team to bam is the worst decision made in heat history
No. Riley running Lebron out of town because he wanted Lebron to play for less money was.
When is this franchise gonna stop babying Bam? He isn’t that guy, and them still giving him a max extension is exactly why we’re consistently in the play in as a team just under the second apron. He’s a third option at best and for this team to still try to push him as the next guy up or dwade talking about he could end up with a statue too is absolutely ridiculous. Blow.the.team.up. If we’re just gonna lose games, I’d rather do it knowing we have assets for the future. We’ve been stuck watching the same team with the same excuses for 5 years.
Yep
It’s the same issues it’s been the last couple years, our two best players can’t shoot, our supposed franchise star hasn’t improved offensively in 3 season in fact he’s regressed, the league has gone big and since he can’t abuse smaller players at the 5 anymore he’s essentially useless when it comes to scoring the ball, this team is probably a 42-43 win team at this pace and it’s so evident the jimmy era has run its course, you wanna play this season out fine go ahead, but it’s about time we accept this iteration of the roster as what it is, maybe sneak into the playoffs and lose in round 1 again, it’s run its course.
Give this Team to Herro! Trade Jimmy.
Bam… I’ve seen how he plays with a real C or PF next to him! He needs to do better, but I can’t let him go! Pat and Spo need to do their jobs better to help Bam out! 🤷🏾♂️
Also trade Jovic
Hope this isnt a jinx, why TR works with TH is: His handle. In TH's career, he was also trying to b a point. In last part of last season, TH gave up the dribble. This yr, he is now comfortable without dribbling and it has helped his shot, near the end of the last 2 games, TH tried an extended dribble, into a shot, which train wrecked each time. TR helps TH in this regard. But any point could help TH, TR strength is he moves the ball faster than other points on the team. This helps TH from even thinking about dribbling, and wow, has it helped TH
Phoenix have 2 stars and 1 superstar . WE HAVE NONE OF THOSE. There is your game. I'm done with Bam.
Great game for Tyler and HH. Nice to see Ware get some run. Have yet to get a game where Tyler, Jimmy, Bam, and Terry play great at the same time. On to Denver.
Terry need to get some practice in on finishing at the rim. If it's been a problem, Heat I'm sure know it is, address it.
For Ware, Spo just needs to drill that when he's out there, the focus is defend, box out, rebound. Don't expect plays run for you on offense. Clean the glass on offense and eat on offensive rebounds. Hopefully Spo plays him regularly so he gets meaningful minutes to adapt to NBA play.
Rozier would be alright
Bam dissappeared offensively again. This roster is flawed. You cannot allocate 100 + million dollars to a player who does not score.
Exactly, and Bam's defensive impact is slightly overstated as well.
Bam is Guilty !! Trade Him 😮
How was that a bad pass by Rozier this was all on Erik spokes tea no designed play to come out of the timeout to win a game 😊
Couple points
A) The idea that Bam is or ever was the best player on this team is FO propaganda and it has to stop. Metrics have shown CONSISTENTLY that this team is a bottom feeder whenever Jimmy is off the floor. Seriously, on-off lineups with him in the last few years have been shocking. Now that Jimmy at 35 is declining pretty significantly you see that Bam is not able to carry his weight like you would expect from a max player. This org is so happy to appoint him as "the cornerstone" without actually expecting him to do cornerstone shit and it really points to the laziness and entitlement that have come to characterize this organization in the last few years. If I never go another day in my life hearing about a "Heat guy" or about "Heat culture" it will still be too soon.
B) Terry is not good. He's not an efficient offensive player, never has been. He's a terrible defender who is getting eaten alive on screens. Realistically they should ship him out for a bag of chips but Spo and the FO feel the need to start him to show that the "core four" works and that their panic trade was a success because again, this team is characterized by politics and image, not by doing whatever it takes to win. Unfortunately I do agree that he's pretty much the only primary ball handler on the roster so there really aren't a lot of other options. I DO NOT want to put Herro at PG. He has been thriving in this off-ball role and they should not change ANYTHING about what he is doing right now. So unfortunately I do think we're stuck with a Terry/Tyler back court because they couldn't move Terry for any value and there's no one else on the roster who even approximates his (very flawed) skillset. However that back court also has zero percent chance of working long term and certainly not in the playoff, so they're pretty much just fucked.
At least Larssen has shown he's immediately a winning player.
The Heat needs to TANK a few seasons. We need to get high level draft picks. Finding players in the muck is not and has not worked in a few years. Also, Bam reached is ceiling last year. Bam as your 5 will not win a championship. Start Ware, Jovic, Highsmith, Tyler, and Larson. Bench those defensive specialists and go with the youth movement. Bam and Jimmy are not offensive players and never was. They are defensive hustle guys. Making bam an offensive threat is like making draymond an offensive threat. Most of the players have reached their ceiling the past few years such as Duncan and co.Trying extract more from them is painful to watch.
Bam is struggling this year. The 30pt game felt like fool's gold and not to mention it was the wizards. I think he's thinking too much. He was wide open 5-6 times tonight but didn't even look at the rim because he was being so passive. Spo has to make a point to let Bam eat 1st every game, sets the offense up better, and opens his passing abilities up
Well this has been Bams issues for yrs .. i know what i watch & Bam has the offensive skillset to avg 25-27 EASILY but he always in his head & being passive.. you can tell, i said the same thing with wizards game but we’ve seen him not being aggressive against shity teams the main pt is that he mentally isnt there
we dont have enough . we might as well call CURTAINS ...up until we get some fire power we dont have enough.....Good to see the picks play .. but we need more....
only change that’s needed rn is bam actually playing like our best player.
I do have a positive take away.
Tyler is having a sneaky all star season.
If Bam plays even slightly better, we will.
Solid production from Pelle, Burks, and Highsmith, and Ware.
We didnt have Jamie who helps the offense when it gets stagnate.
Yes, we have some issues that need to be addressed, but im srill pretty positive about this year.
Why not more Duncan? He saved the team last year while Herro was out not he's barley getting 15 min a game. He had a good shooting rhythm in the first half and then Spo pulled. Spo coaching been suspect so far this year.
Th heat problem is spo for long time
pelle larson is the replacement for terry in that starting lineup but the heat would need to be willing to make decisions to win not based on salary
The Heat make decisions based on politics, image and agenda. Not a serious franchise.
I told yall he was ready spo just not thinking start rozier Herro butler bam ware together bet the games be different from the others pelle Larsson duncan Robinson Jamie Jaquez Jr nikola jovic Kevin love for the second starters
@culee389 not sure what lineup spo wants but bam and ware need to play together
@brianlouis2122 facts it would help us alot winning
There seems to be something going on with Bam and Jimmy Butler. There may be a trade that they know about because they not forcing heavy duty plays so not to get hurt.
I have a question maybe someone could answer I only really follow the Heat I want to know do are other teams always tinkering with their lineup like we are or I guess a better question do other teams always have a problem with fit as much as we seem to
I feel like there's an optimal lineup/ rotation to this roster that would actually be really good I'm just not sure what it is
I love all these guys, but I knew that roster construction was a big problem. I thought and still think that the most balanced starting line up they can have is Bam, Jimmy, Highsmith, Niko, and Tyler.
It’s still not a winner, but it’s their least flawed option right now, and Niko needs less people to defer to before he’s going to get going.
My honest opinion is that the Heat are crippling Bam with unnecessary burden. No other team talks about their team captain, but Bam has been thrust into this D Wade leader Captain Heat role that doesn’t suit him, he doesn’t want to begin with, and isn’t elevating him in the slightest.
Short of Ware becoming a good starting center that Bam doesn’t have to cover up for, I don’t think the best Bam will ever arrive on the Miami Heat. On other teams, he could be a championship winning X factor, but as a star, he is punching above his weight.
U use the title collapse, though the pure collapse happened @ 3min left in Q3 with the choice of 3 rotation players,
I've (and others) been calling him South Beach Ben Simmons for some time...starting to look it
Face the facts… Bam is not a superstar, he is a complementary piece for superstars… It is so clean when he plays for the National team. Jimmy is a aging star that needs to save his moments to the playoff… Rozier did not fit well even having his moments, it just a comparison when he was a celtic… the power forward position needs to be upgraded urgently… Nico is a good guy but not even ready for what he needs to deal every game… Spo needs to be more accountable as well. When a first pick was waisted just to get rid of Lowry 🤦♂️
Hayward looks better in the starting lineup because Terry doesn’t move the ball well. He fills in more compared to Niko who needs the ball and needs the offense to move for him to be effective. Terry has turned the offense into a stagnant iso show and Heyward fills in better there whereas Niko is a team offense player.
Getting the ball in your hands is something earned. If he can’t fulfill his role with the starting lineup and doesn’t deserve more responsibility with the ball in his hands.
Highsmith not better stop
@@culee389you need to stop and watching the games. Clearly better and does his job. How can someone be better, but can’t fulfill the role that’s needed…Jovic. Jovic betta get his head out his ass.
@@trentsmith5218 Jovic is being negatively impacted by Terry who's a ball pounding SG masquerading as a PG that doesn't get other players into position to score or make plays. Jovic didn't suddenly get worse over the summer. He was balling last year, particularly as a playmaker. Highsmith fits because he stands around and doesn't need the ball. He fills in perfectly. Terry makes the offense stagnant, Jovic is a ball movement type of player and in the starting lineup, he gets relegated to a spot up shooter which is not his game. You either take Terry or Jovic out of the starting lineup. I'd argue Terry because Jovic fits better the rest of the starters.
@PastelitoPapi I agree with everything u said. Even with Terry playing like that, it doesn’t excuse Jovic lack of physicality and inability to hit open 3s since the season started. If Jovic just did those 2 things you give Spo something to think about. Bc at the end of the day there is no guarantee that moving Terry will make Jovic play better, and Terry is getting paid $20M+. By default the HC is gonna give the guy they paid a lot of money the benefit of the doubt. I would love a starting lineup of Tyler, Jimmy, Jovic, Highsmith, and Bam. With Terry, Duncan, and Jaime coming off. But Jovic got to earn it, u can’t just keep blaming somebody else for his performance. Also I think Terry can facilitate when he puts his mind to it. Hopefully moving him to the second unit will force him to focus on facilitating.
Bam has been straight garbage since dating Aja Wilson
our Two “best players “ suck. that’s a horrible sentence but the harsh truth.
Face the facts… Bam is not a superstar, he is a complementary piece for superstars… It is so clean when he plays for the National team. Jimmy is a aging star that needs to save his moments to the playoff… Rozier did not fit well even having his moments, it just a comparison when he was a celtic… the power forward position needs to be upgraded urgently… Nico is a good guy but not even ready for what he needs to deal every game… Spo needs to be more accountable as well.
Terry jimmy and bam are the reasons we are losing. Jovic could be better but hes supposed to be around players that produce who just arent. If he goes to the bench let him actually handle the ball.
Nah jimmy was good last night he just had one mistake that’s it but he played well now bam on the hand has been horrible
Yall both don't know what yall talking about jovic should come off the bench if yall want the ball in his hands
@@culee389 I didn’t mention nothing about Jovic
@@Blazenetwork1990 I know you didn't the other guy did
@ oh ok 👍
Trade Bam, Rozier, & 2 firsts for Giannis
Include Jaime and another 1st round pick, or they don't even pick up the phone
@@CoolingwitACLol I agree we HAVE to go all in for Giannis. I am very angry that we did nothing this offseason no roster improvements no trades. Nothing. This is probably going to be the worst season for Miami in a long time.
That bs trade package 😂😂😂.
Nope, Giannis ain't worth gutting the roster or trading Bam away. Go young, keep the future. With or without Giannis they won't have enough to win anyway.
No yall all crazy in the head
Another mediocre game from Jimmy the Fraudulent. Is this our king?? This team is cooked.
I would try jovic
At pg over Terry
Let's admit that the Heat are not good enough and they will not win the championship with their current roster. Let's go into rebuilding.
start rozier Herro butler bam ware together bet the games be different from the others pelle Larsson duncan Robinson Jamie Jaquez Jr nikola jovic Kevin love for the second starters
They need to but they're too arrogant and they're happy to sell tickets even if they have no direction
You can't just quit and rebuild when times are tough. You don't even know who to keep.
Ware gave us a small sample size of why he needed to play. Again he’s only a rookie but he’s impactful on the court. Hes also can shoot the 3
Jovic ceiling is where it is. He’s simply not that good and Spo is getting ready to pull him out of starting lineup
Larrson is looking better than Duncan Robison he officially needs rotation minutes
Smith looked better starting at the 4
Time to trade Jimmy butler. Herro is officially our best player and was kinda showing this last year before injury
Rozier is who he is by now in his nba career he’s fine at PG
Jamie needs to show us a big leap he looks like he has regressed although he’s been banged up so I’ll let it slide for now.
Rozier sucks & Jovic is 21?! Were you the same guy saying “Tyler is who he is” in 2021? Jovic will be fine, but Rozier has to go. He’s bring this team down and stunting everyone’s growth
@@Mac2MonJovic is not good which is why Spo has been cutting his minutes. You keep saying he’s only 21 doesn’t make it any better it’s guys much younger than him who are way better. I’ll rather have Cooper Flagg over Jovic.
Please stop with the 21. Also Herro always can shoot
@@LowbudgetGmer Jovic plays soft. That’s his biggest weakness. He also defers to everyone else, but you can tell that’s what Spo has told him he must do. He scores, passes, and defends better than Rozier at 21. You are insane if you haven’t seen all the areas Herro has developed:
#1. Getting to the rim
#2. Passing
#3. Deflections
#4. Forcing a team to double him & setting up other players
#5. Shot selection
#6. Clock management
#7. Efficiency in his shooting
That’s across 6 years & you think Jovic is going to stay the same for the rest of his career?!? You must be crazy
@@Mac2Mon the main issue why Jovic is struggling is because of Terry Rozier lol. Jovic needs the ball in his hands to facilitate(which is supposed to be Terrys job) but Terry dribbles the air out of the ball…the result of that is him just standing in the corner on offense and Terry’s defense is a domino effect to the team, which is why Bam looks bad on defense because he has to help…he’s the worst defensive guard that I’ve ever seen in a Heat jersey. Jovic played his best with everybody in the starting lineup except Terry last year too
@@Mac2Mon 😂 are you serious right now? Jovic better than Rozier? You dudes be saying anything. Jovic is taller and stronger that’s it. Both of their 3 point shooting is streaky
I think heat fans shouldn’t attend anymore games instead of complaining about trades/changes being made to the lineup.
I think it’s robbery that they are making people pay to come watch these atrocities of games.
Someone is getting traded, Riley doesn’t care who he has to sacrifice to get a whale. 👀
Riley hasn't gotten a whale since Shaq. The big 3 were Wade's creation.
Should the heat try to get Nikola
Vučević?
Butler playing like a bench player. He expects tyler to do all offense. If Butler played better we would win. This ain't on bam only. We did enough but Butler was so bad it's embarrassing. Do not pay him!
The summer team is better that the tean we have now they play hard this team play like soso
Y'all really do need to apologize to Tyler.
I told you big Dummy s that Bam is not. CENTER he is a undersize period, Bam is a forward, so point the finger 🤘 at urself, you and Erick Spoelstra knows know basketball period Spoelstra can't Coach period 😡🤣 he plays player's out their position,also Spo never keep a five players lineup in the game especially the fourth Quarter and Spo Rotating to much every 5 to 10 minutes it's CRAZY 🤣 coaching,never played our CENTER FULL TIME this is the problem Spo can not COACH play KEL EL WARE FULL TIME then the Miami Heat can starting winning games again
Bam isn’t a power forward 😂😂😂 idk how people could watch these games and want Bam to play with Ware when he doesn’t space the floor well enough, him and Jimmy occupy the paint, and Spo isn’t dumb enough to have Ware out there as a spot up shooter
Riley is to blame not the coach...shit players Spo got
You a 🤡@@terrance3248 bam is a forward and Ware can space the floor well and spo can't really coach you an spo needs a mri on yall brains and eyes
start rozier Herro butler bam ware together bet the games be different from the others pelle Larsson duncan Robinson Jamie Jaquez Jr nikola jovic Kevin love for the second starters
@ Bam and Ware is not going to work…. At all. They need to take Terry out and put Highsmith in, they don’t benefit from having Terry start or close at all
12:06 🤣
Miami can’t compete, we are a play in team at best and have no chance to win tbe championship.
We don’t have enough assets to trade for the type of superstar that would allow us to compete now.
Hate to say it but it may be time to move on from Jimmy and Bam and build a young team around Herro to compete in 3-5 years
Nope
@ I know it doesn’t sound good and nobody likes to admit that it is time for their team to rebuild but, what’s the point of being a first or second round exit?
Which player can we get that would make us compete against teams like Boston, orlando, Cleveland or knicks? Not even mentioning the west teams.
With the talent in this draft class, getting one or two picks this year plus our own pick (since we would be a lottery team) we could build around a young core of Herro, Jaquez, Jovic and Ware.
Miami is a great team drafting and developing players, this makes the rebuilding idea less bad
highsmith at the 4 is not the answer. We need bam at the 4 and ware at the 5.
Bring back Gabe Vincent
Trade Rozier for Gabe & Cam Reddish. I seriously think the Lakers would do that
Are both of you off crack? Gabe is terrible and you all forget lakers gave him all that money. We can’t afford him
Gabe has been terrible and stays hurt now
Have you seen Gabe? He's been washed since he left 🫣
😂😂😂😂 no @@Mac2Mon
Where is Butlers big mouth? What a bunch of losers!
They can’t bench Rozier?!? WTF. That’s ridiculous. You bench Rozier if that means your 2 max players have the potential to play better. The priority should be #1 win. #2. Build the best team for your max players to excel.
Jovic should come off the bench rozier fine
Rozier needs to be benched because he doesn't fit with the rest of the starting lineup. Bam and Jimmy both look worse now that Terry is here because he holds onto the ball, doesn't set other guys up and he doesn't make up for it because his shot selection is crazy and he can't finish at the rim.
Yaw can’t let Boston beat us on this. Everyone go sign up
Who cares if Terry is making 23 million because Spo benched Duncan when he was making 20 million a year so it can happen
Rozier is a lot better than Duncan. If Riley had put a team option in years 3 - 5 Duncan would be player for Veteran minimum in Portland.
Nico was a 1 in Europe why not move him to the 1 again.
That's Europe this the united state of America he is a forward
@@culee389No Reason, past Year the Top 5 MVP finalist are Euro Players and Inteenational players. The USA Basketball is not absolute anymore. 😮🎉
Lmao they dont fit for 6 years none of these players fit
David you look so unhappy what’s wrong? LOL
No you cannot start Duncan no
Bam has been getting better year after year and now after a couple of bad games people want to trade him? Thats ridiculous.
Wow how awefull you guys are!
im over this same old storyline. plz Pat just blow this team up. Trade Jimmy for a younger offensive star like Desmond Bain or Jaylen Green🙏🏾
No trade Josh Richardson nikola jovic haywood Highsmith Thomas bryant Kevin love
On an inbounds play to tie or win the game, what should the lineup be? I'm thinking Duncan, Tyler, Burks, Jimmy, Bam, right?
Hell naw start rozier Herro butler bam ware together bet the games be different from the others pelle Larsson duncan Robinson Jamie Jaquez Jr nikola jovic Kevin love for the second starters
Haywood Highsmith about to get fried by Aaron Gordon. Rozier is the bigger issue than Jovic in the starting lineup
He will be fine
