On the floor ride for my dogs where thing you can check the score Hustle Hard couple scars bubble frogs just like bu said you in trouble y check the FL play got it all B y’all SE the block stop with one hand and P trust it’s

Power have the guts we here to bring the heat y’all can hang it up welcome to five on the floor a daily Insider show on the Miami Heat and the NBA featuring Ethan scholet Greg sander and Alex Toledo plus others from the five reason Sports Network welcome back to five on the

Floor I am Alex Alo no Ethan skolik tonight no gregl sander we’ve got uh what Ethan labeled the kids for whatever reason I’m damn near 30 unfortunately um I’ve got Brady Hawk here with me I’ve got my guy major passin here with me and we’re g to

Go over 98 91 heat loss in Philadelphia I mean wasn’t one of the best games to watch really it was a tough start I didn’t that was kind of like the first red flag was the way it started this game it just was kind of in the mud to

Begin with and you know it’s tough because you’re missing a lot of guys and we’ll get to that later on in the injury before missing a whole lot of guys and you know it changed a lot of things up for the heat especially the rotations but overall very sloppy game you finish

With 15 turnovers which is really weird for the heat like they’re consistently throughout the Jimmy era they’ve been they’ve been pretty good at not only forcing turnovers but holding on to the ball a lot better than other teams for the most part they’re usually in the top

10 and or I should say bottom 10 in turnover percentage and you know that’s they kind of went away from their identity tonight in that in that you know aspect and I feel that’s something you can’t be doing when you’re missing so many guys when you’re missing Jimmy

Tyler yic love not to mention you know Jay Rich who’s been out all that it’s just you look at like the three-point shooting it was pretty good throughout the game they ended up finishing 36% from three but the finishing at The Rim man they ended up finishing the game

14 of 33 within four feet of the basket which is 42% I don’t know how you get to like how you finish 42% at The Rim that it just seems hard to do almost right like they they just they’re so bad at converting on the easier shots and I know there was some

Miss foul calls and people were upset about that and then not only that like they’ve been consistently missing four or five free throws in the past few games more easy shots that you’re kind of passing up you know the transition numbers are never really great with them they ended up

Finishing with a decent like transition offensive rating but it was like you know up and down at best so it just feels like everything was in the mud outside of their three-point shooting which is like again okay it’s not like they were on fire or anything Duncan

Didn’t have like an amazing game before um he got hurt right and then you ended up finishing with Patty Mills closing the game and Thomas Bryant playing like half of the fourth quarter so very weird game tonight we’re going to get some more stuff and I want to set up Brady

And major here major first I’m gonna set you up first with the rock eorts gamer of the night and now on five on the floor it’s time for the gamer of the night sponsored by Rock Esports Center the place to eat drink and play all day host your next birthday party with them

Located at 15305 South Dixie Highway in petto Bay they’ve got a 5500 ft state-of-the-art Center equipped with all the high-end power play all day passes available for just 25 bucks but if you mention five reasons it’s just $20 so mention five reasons or five RSN you get to play all

Day for $20 and now the gamer of the night all right major I’m sorry that I had to come to you with this and I know it’s been tough for you in the times you’ve been on the show um but yeah who who’s who’s your gamer

Theight I mean the best player on the court was Maxi um he started out on fire was like 17 points in the first quarter um and they didn’t do anything to make him uncomfortable like you can’t let a microwave scorer like Maxi just get open shot after open shot to start the game

And get exactly where he wants to go because that’s then where you get that you know downhill snowball where then he’s hitting the tough ones and there’s just really nothing you can do but I didn’t think there was a single point throughout the night where Maxi was

Uncomfortable for a long stretch of time he was just consistently getting exactly what he wanted no matter who was on them um especially that first quarter you just can’t have an avalanche from one player like that it’s the one guy on the team that you have to stop and you’re

Just letting him get 17 in the first quarter and letting him start out on fire like that’s just unacceptable the rotations were poor but Maxi I mean he did great he did everything he was supposed to do he had a lot of rebounds a lot of assists obviously scored at a

Really high clip so I thought Maxi was the best player on the court yeah it’s hard to disagree um Maxi went off in a lot of different ways too it was just like oh he got hot from three it’s he he went three of 10 from three amazingly

Enough because it feels like he hit more than he missed but uh when you look at the way he finished inside the arc seven to 14 you know got to the free throw line five times and then you mentioned the assist there and the rebounds obviously a plus for them too which the

Sixers are not a good rebounding team especially without a beid and um you know the assists the 10 assist and three turnovers it’s one of the bigger indicators that you just didn’t do a good job on him like not only the way that he converted but you know you

Turning him into a playmaker in that sense because he’s like that’s the scouting report on him right because he’s not like an amazing passer you want to send help at him and they they were there was a lot of Zone tonight a lot of Zone like I said weird lineups but so it

Wasn’t representative of like who they are when they’re healthy but still the execution was not great not only that you got 22 points from Kelly UB along with 11 rebounds and three assists and five blocks I mean what a game for UB and then Kyle Lowry the guy I

Mean as the game went on he kept getting better and better he showed off like the stuff that he used to do here with like the way that he can grip his way into certain foul calls and doing it in in a comedically funny way just uh it’s

Aesthetically it’s it makes me laugh every time and it always did when he was here you hate that it happened against your team you know three of five from three six of 12 from the floor when was the last time Kyle went six to 12 from

The floor like in in a heat uniform like it’s been a while he he had a great game against you and it’s just it’s tough to you know all three guys all three of those guys just killing you like that it’s tough to go over and you know want

To give some love to Bam here 2013 and six he would have been player of the night if the heat would have found a way to to win but you know what he didn’t even touch the ball in the fourth quarter it felt like um so that’s a to

Me a big part of why they lost but we can get into that later Brady what were your general takeaways from this game and if you want to kind of um add to any of the stuff we were talking about there with uh gamer of the night so I mean

Number one uh the turnovers like you just cannot play in a game like this as much as they talk about about it being in the mud they turn the ball over way too much you cannot play in that that type of turnover battle and you cannot

Turn the other team over and be that bad scoring off turnovers in terms of the transition game and and kind of capitalizing off that you just cannot have that happen consistently in games like this when you’re already feel like you’re undermanned um and then I’m glad

You went to the BAM thing because I feel like that needs to be talked about like mostly from this game is the fact that he was great in that first quarter he you know he hit the the corner three uh he was clicking he was hitting kind

Of turnaround jumpers he was active I feel like his confidence is kind of hitting you know is peing and the fact that you kind of make your run in the fourth quarter Thomas Bryant comes out bam comes in and he does not get a shot attempt in the fourth quarter that can’t

Happen it does not matter if you’re trying to play this three-point shooting game because you’re trying to get back into the game that’s not what you do that’s not what you do especially with the lineup that you have out there where you don’t have duck Robinson out there

Which I think it was because of he had back discomfort so he was kind of came out of the game and that’s why Patty was closing uh Patty struggled obviously in this game and he he struggled down the stretch they didn’t have like the the spot up shooters that was going to just

Revolve and say okay we’re going to run pin downs and handoffs and pull up and pull up threes consistently even though Terry got a couple to drop on that one stretch you have to play your game and your game is bam on a vile your game is

Bam playmaking for you your game is bam in the mid post trying to get things going in the paint uh and the fact that they went over went away from that is just it’s just wild I’m looking at this 991 Point box score and there’s no other reason to to point

At that then you have to stay with your your system in your game and it felt like they got away from that so uh you have guys like Caleb who I think kind of sums up this game well who he did not he played really well defensively he was

All over the place he had a bunch of steals bunch of blocks played gritty but the turnovers that he had like he he kept like he was just punching he was shooting himself in the foot every time he made a good play so that kind of

Summed up it felt like what the heat were doing um so yeah that was that was kind of the big one and then haime I feel like really struggled in this one and I think that’s what we’re probably going to get into the the conversation about the foul calls and the whistle and

Everything because look I asked SPO about it not even meaning to ask him about this specifically but I asked him about Jimmy’s free throw attempts because they were down and he basically was like I didn’t get the memo I didn’t get the The Memo from the league that

They’re not calling as many fouls and he went on this kind of rant and then obviously this all got put out there about the foul calls and we’re seeing this come into fruition they really are being a lot more lenient and that hurts a lot of their players like haim’s one

Of them ha’s a physical player Ha is not a player even though Jimmy you know gets the line ofon Jimmy finds ways to maneuver and find ways to score like he’ll make itself itself easier for himself he will search for a mismatch he’ll find a smaller guy he will post

That guy up uh Hae does not do that I say it all the time Hae does not search for smaller Defenders ha just goes and who’s ever in front of him and it it caught up to him in a game like this because he’s going at guys like Mo Baba

And Kelly UB and they’re you know going straight up on him and they’re getting blocks and they’re not getting the usual foul calls you get so uh you know that was pretty clear to me and then look you’re without Tyler without Jimmy you’re without Kevin Love You can’t

Really survive I think as we’ve seen a down Duncan game we talked about it after the Detroit games how good Duncan was and why he barely kind of pushed them over the top to win those games when you play a team like this you need your shooting you need he struggled to

Start then obviously the injury didn’t help but that pretty much summed it up for me it was just the the defense did pretty much enough but they just kept hurting themselves with the turnovers and everything else in the way they played agreed I thought the defense had

A lot of good moments outside of the maxxi stuff really even again with u and Lowry like playing well I thought like there was a lot of good moments throughout the game it was just too up and down because like the offense just never really got in a great Rhythm like

I think the only time it looked decent was uh you know was honestly I I don’t even feel like there was a there was any point in the game where it was looking great but like you had the second quarter where you outscored them by six but you started off getting outscored by

Eight in the first and you get outscored by 12 in the third quarter right just tough to come back from when you’re missing this many guys but yeah like there was they look good in the zone at times but they used it a whole whole lot

And Thomas and Patty were in a lot of those lineups Thomas Patty and Terry played a good amount together and and they have as of late and they did it to start the fourth quarter for the first few minutes like again these are weird circumstances right and look shout out

To Thomas and Patty for trying to hold their own like they they’ve been they’re they’re kind of a victim of being put in those tough situations as well like they’re not in in perfect lineups to be optimized either not that you know they they like Patty had a tough game and

Thomas has been scoring in the interior lately so you know he’s not and he hit a three today so he’s not really a stretch big but um you got to be happy that he is at least scoring for you down low if he’s going to be taking up space like getting the

Buckets there kind of just having him as a threat down there is is better than nothing you gotta give some props to Haywood for hitting some threes tonight and playing some great defense like you said Caleb play great defense but too many turnovers from him too many

Turnovers from bam and Terry and I I just think that was kind of you know a little bit hard to overcome when a lot of you know these guys that you’re playing a ton of minutes tonight are making so many mistakes because bam otherwise like had a great game um you

Know and that’s just kind of where I stand with it sorry for talking so much major I’m going to get to you next what do you feel as far as the way that this game played out down the stretch anything you wanted to add as far as

Your overall thoughts and again sorry to come with like a depressing question because I know damond the stretch was isn’t exactly the most exciting topic but what are your thoughts no yeah I thought other than that first quarter where I said the I thought the rotations

Were Pure or uh poor sorry um I thought the defense was pretty good they’re really active especially Caleb and Delon I thought both of them were really active and made things difficult on everyone not named Maxi um but for the purpose of like at the end of the fourth

And in the fourth their defense really turned it up and I thought their defense was pretty solid it was just like the offense was holding them back and like I feel like we say that every time um but they were searching for foul calls and they’re not getting them the refs have

Clearly changed across the whole NBA on how they’re calling fouls um any game you watch now there’s just a lot of contact not being called but also I think you’re not also going to get those foul calls whenever you’re having bad offensive processes um so they’re having bad offensive processes no one’s moving

One person has the ball and it’s like try to create a shot and Brady’s point you were playing the best when bam had the ball and like I’ve talked about this numerous times even in last playoffs where they made the comeback against the Bucks and things like that where they

Made big runs it was bam had the ball and he was being a facilitator as well as a scorer and just being decisive in his actions and today we saw in the first quarter he was doing that exact same thing bam was everywhere bam was incredible for you know the first half

He had those two horrible turnovers at the start of the third quarter but other than that was doing great um the whole game and then just didn’t touch the ball at the end I don’t get going away from your identity like that and what is clearly your best option to win the game

As we saw even in that game of him absolutely dominating and for a half of the game was out playing Maxi in my opinion and then just the heat were just like oh no we’re not going to give you the ball it just made absolutely no sense I feel like that should be

Corrected at least in a Timeout you know it’s like a four-point game with five minutes left or something like that and you still not giving the ball to it just doesn’t make any sense to me he’s uh Ethan’s here in you know pres the mute button yeah I’m sorry um it was

Perplexing man I don’t know why he didn’t touch the ball in that fourth quarter when he was easily their best player throughout the game like it wasn’t it’s not like other guys were going off like Terry had his moments right but had an inefficient game overall with the turnovers and with the shooting

And um you know more more turnovers and assists which has not been the case for Terry throughout his tenure he’s been really good about that even with the shooting kind of being up and down throughout this time and you know it’s just a lot of things you know didn’t go

Well for them tonight like their their mid-range shooting was not good uh like I mentioned before 42% at The Rim which is first percentile which means worst in the league right and it’s just hard to overcome those things like I mentioned before the Mis free throws and the

Turnovers like it’s too it’s too much to overcome on the road while you’re missing a ton of guys not to keep you know uh hammering home the same points but like it’s that’s a lot of stuff that’s a lot of stuff that you could have controlled and again like they’re

Just usually so good at um holding on to the ball the Sixers are not like the Orlando Magic who just force you into a bunch of turnovers right it’s not what they do so it’s on them you know you can’t win them all but this would have

Been a really nice one to win and with that we’re going to move on to the a Aggressive Insurance play of the night and now it’s time for the insurance byet play of the night sponsored by insurance by.com at a Aggressive Insurance Agency you can reach out to our friend Lynette at

Hard to come up with one but we went over it before the show and I’m gonna L it up to you to you guys to talk about it and this development but the play of the night is going to be two separate plays that occurred in two separate

Points bam continuing the streak and hitting not one but two threes in this game hit one early on on in the first quarter and and then one later on in the game you know very much in Rhythm uh in the flow of the offense it’s clearly not

Like the first option I don’t think bam is some high volume stretch big now but again if you can take those in the flow of the offense and kind of other things are not working and it’s wide open for you I I think they’re fine with that

Like I don’t think SPO I don’t think SPO is one to encourage shoot like bigs to shoot the ball like you’ve seen that a lot with their backups you’ve seen it with bam you know outside of love and O Lin most of the other guys I I don’t

Think they’ve been encouraged to shoot and and it’s like other than these wide open in Rhythm ones right I think that’s just kind of what it’s been and so bam having the confidence to take them to me it’s it doesn’t completely change everything because I don’t think

Defenses are going to be like worried about that but it does like make you second guess even if just it’s you know a little bit right it’s like okay he can make that above the break one and I think he he ended up making a corner one

Which is as the second one so um we don’t have to make this a whole thing but uh it is fun to talk about because it’s like one of the only things I was positive about tonight very weird night as far as like their three-point shooting because like I said that was

The only area of the floor that they shot okay but even then it was bam hitting to uh Haywood I think what was it hit three I don’t I’m I don’t have that number in front of me and Thomas hit one as well so like the three-point

Shooting was comprised of you know your typical non-shooters making a lot of them and like Brady mentioned before Duncan not getting going before he was out of the game didn’t help Patty didn’t really get going there um even though he closed the game and and you know I

Really like his effort it’s that’s also another tough thing to overcome is the size there but enough for me um Brady what did you think about you know bam and kind of this development I mean aside from the fourth quarter topic that we just had I mean it

Seems like after what we were talking about a week and a half ago with his confidence and the issues and the Dallas game and and kind of the is he was having uh it just feels like his confidence is peing where you could kind of see that with the three-point

Shooting you can see that I think that the corner one is one that surprised me a little more because he’s he’s kind of been confident with the above the break one which I’ve been saying over time I feel like moves the needle way more than the corner shot the corner shot doesn’t

Really do much for me specifically he’s not that’s not where he operates it’s not really where you know teams are it’s easier for you to pull away from there than than the top of the key it feels like you could do more there um but then

He followed it up a little bit later with another above the break one so five for five over the last four games um to your point about like the second guessing the thing is if he keeps hitting it like teams are not going to adjust to it unless it’s very high

Volume like unless it’s happening over like a consistently high volume like teams are going to basically say like like okay you want to shoot that shot like here and there like okay take it again take it again so they’re GNA like they’ll they’re not going to overreact

To it in my like that’s kind of the big thing so he’s going at pretty much have it pretty decently open if he wants it uh and I felt like he had like an opportunity actually late in the fourth to take a three and he swung it to the

Left wing and ended up in a Miss but it was like I don’t think the guy’s G to be taking clutch time uh even though he did in the last game but like clutch time like Rhythm above the break threes on spot UPS like I don’t think that’s the

Point we’re at but it is good to see like the whole point was like this is never going to just like okay Bam’s a shooter now like this is always going to be a thing that slowly happens over time it’s slowly just increase over and over and we’re at the beginning stages we’re

Finally hitting that stage where he’s confident enough he builds up his mid-range game as much as possible he’s kind of maximized that in a way that he feels like he’s hitting hit kind of all his gadgets in that range uh and now he’s kind of expanding his range a

Little bit he’s kind of just being able to just uh you know just shoot him a little bit more and see just how the defense reacts so and I said it before like the reason it’s it’s not just like okay we want bam to shoot threes because

Oh he shot three like the reason I feel like is is more so the fact of what he can do the things that like SPO can run for him and the biggest thing is the Duncan bam stuff like the fact that Duncan developed his game to the point

Where you know he’s not just a shooter anymore and he can kind of generate paint touches and get to the rim and finish down there and do all that stuff the final level to this entire Dunkin bam two man game is the BAM three it’s

The fact that you can run like pick and pops and you can kind of Leverage The of their abilities to your advantage and do that type of stuff so that’s you know we’re you know we’re talking about this in in March that we’re probably not going to see that this season like this

Is once again feels like something down the line but it’s there’s always a good you know a good topic to have a starting point so like it to start to for his starting point Alex to be five for five from three over four games is is not the

Worst thing in the world for sure man it’s it’s fun to see and it’s you know it’s giv us something to talk about here kind of in this weird point in the season where it’s winding down and it’s looking like at this point that they might end up in the playing tournament

Again right like that’s not obviously not settled they’re still some time to get out of there but you know this is one of those wins that would have really helped right and you know the Knicks are playing tonight and there’s you know other team other teams are going to

Affect that as well but this is one that you had at hand and again you know the circumstances weren’t great with the amount of guys you’re missing but before we get to that uh major anything you wanted to add as far as bam and the three-point development and there’s just

Anything that’s kind of popped up throughout your mind as we’ve been talking that you wanted to uh add to this kind of depressing game yeah I mean with bam shooting threes I released a video a little bit ago saying bam should not shoot threes and then he suddenly

Starts so maybe he just does whatever I say don’t do but I mean if he’s making them he should he should take them right if they’re going to be all the way behind the free throw line like at that point it’s almost a disservice to not take the threes because then they can

Just pack the paint and yes he’s increased his mid-range and I think he’s way better than the statistics show on his mid-range shooting because he relies on it too much but a worst case scenario you got to take one step in and shoot that shot at the top of the free throw

Line um you can’t just hold it looking around waiting I mean we’ve seen that with countless other players that’s when the offense gets in big trouble once they figure out you’re never going to take it he’s starting to take it I think he has a really good form it’s real

Smooth and it’s appable so I I mean I don’t have any concerns about him not being able to ever make threes at a pretty decent clip at a respectable clip so if they’re open I’m fine with him taking them if he’s going to take them confidently and like fluid not like

Hesitation like I guess I’ll just take it but if he walks into it just take it um don’t second guess yourself or anything like that just pull up take it shoot it if you make it awesome if you don’t just move on to the next one um he

Can’t start thinking about it that’s when he gets in trouble when you can see bam start thinking about what he’s going to do on the court that’s when he gets into trouble and he gets way too predictable when he’s free flowing in the offense including the threes have

Been the past four games they’ve been free flowing that’s when he’s at his best and that’s when he’s you know no ceiling bam I couldn’t agree more it’s just it’s always been a central theme to his game and we’ve obviously talked about it here for years um when it comes to just kind

Of playing in the flow of the offense not hesit itting you know with what with whatever it is that you’re doing out there and now the three is it’s the same thing right like I don’t if I see him hesitate before taking a three like that’s not going to make me feel good

About it like I just think he he plays so much better when he’s not thinking twice and just playing in the flow of the game um so yeah that’s I think where we’re gonna wrap it up before we do let’s get to the Eric Rubenstein injury report and now it’s time for the

Official five on the floor injury report sponsored by our friend Eric Rubenstein the personal injury attorney born and raised in Lauderdale Florida lives in Miami went to St Thomas he’s a South Florida guy and a huge Miami Heat fan but the important thing is he can help

You get your money that you deserve when something happens to you so reach out to our guy Eric Rubenstein again Eric Rubenstein decom or ask about me I got you on Instagram and now the injury report so the injury report man has that been a busy one lately and we’ve you

Know mentioned it throughout the Pod but um Jimmy was questionable to play today ended up being out um Ethan said that he thought he was gonna play today so everybody you can go and tweet at Ethan and blame Ethan with that for jinxing it once again but no and all seriousness uh

Missing Jimmy Tyler uh continues to be out with the foot injury although he did tweet you know an interesting sorry it wasn’t a tweet it was on his Instagram if I if I remember correctly I sound I mean I’ve never sounded older in my life

But uh uh you know he he he kind of hinted like if he’s gonna come back soon with the Instagram is kind of what I took from it I don’t know if you guys took something different it’s not what I wanted to get the show into but if you

Have any thoughts there you can comment uh love is still out yic continues to be out with the hamstring situation and of course J Rich with the separated shoulder did I I think that’s everybody right yeah and I think that the yage thing uh somebody had said it’s it’s not

That serious where he kind of felt like like he could have played previously I think even in the last game so I mean that’s a pretty good sign and I feel like the love thing uh I feel I keep saying it but I feel like they just want

That guy healthy in the playoffs like yeah they need him right now we all understand that like they they could very well use him to win games but like imagine not having that guy in the playoffs like he’s so important to them that it’s almost like take as much time

Because you don’t want him to do like like look what ogn and Obi did where he came back and now he’s out again because they feel like it’s going to flare back up like you didn’t not want a situation like that with love you want him to just

Take his time be fully healthy and come back around playoff time for sure I mean that’s just we we’ve been talking about that throughout the season and it’s just like you know shout out Thomas Bryant for stepping in there and doing his best um Kevin Love is needed for sure so I’m

Glad that he’s getting some rest and you just you know hope that most of these guys who are pretty much rotation players for you and some important ones too like you hope that everybody’s good to go for the playoffs and a lot of it seems up in the air um like with Tyler

Uh I mean you know for a fact Jay Rich isn’t coming back and I forgot to mention Duncan I know I said it earlier but for the injury report I forgot to mention Duncan going out I want to say third quarter with uh what they called back discomfort and they said he wasn’t

Going to return he didn’t so don’t know haven’t seen any updates yet on like spoke quotes you know after the game as but uh hopefully that’s not anything too serious because Duncan has been hugely important hugely hugely reliable for them so you know just gotta hope everybody comes back soon and with that

  1. Anybody still likin' Rozier's inefficiency? too many minutes to a guy that's efficiency is 41%. that would be fine on another team, not on a team that struggles to get second chance opportunities. too many empty possessions on a small team.

  2. I don’t think there’s anything left to analyze about this team. At this point the focus gotta shift to ‘Can this team come together in time for a deep run in the playoffs?’.

  3. We need to accept that the heat are just a mediocre team this season. They haven't shown something real this season so far. Can't beat any good teams. They are quite deep but just with one dimensional players. There offense is terrible and they can't get healthy. Looks like a first round exit for the best this year:/

  4. If you watch the last 5 games the league has figure out Jaquez. he is conisistently spinning into double teams and turning the ball over or throwing up bad shots. Even with injuries can't keep playing his this many minutes. high smith at this point scores as much but can defend much better. give Cain a shot.

  5. I love ho the chat is blaming spo for not playing duncan. he left the game injured. clearly these people don't watch the games they just bitch

  6. Stop giving bam a pass. he is the team captain. name one time he called for the ball and didn't get it. how many times did he get the ball and immediately throw it to whoever was in the corner. Bam has to demand the ball.

  7. Rozier’s “rim pressure” is totally overrated. It doesn’t make up for EVERYTHING else he is lacking mainly efficiency & 3pt shooting. Just like Lowry’s ability to “organize the offense” was overrated. If Tyler can’t come back healthy this team is going nowhere. Rozier can’t taking them far. Bam with Tyler would have won this game, they did it in their 2 wins against the 76ers this season. In fact only Tyler & Duncan’s 3pt shooting & gravity have the potential to get them far in the playoffs with Playoff Jimmy of course.

  8. Missing 5 guys, 7 if you wanna include Duncan and Bam in the fourth, we were down 17 in the third and went on a 28-11 run to tie it, only down 4 with a minute left. In the micro the team feels miserable but in the macro I feel better. Remember we were in the exact same place this time last year with a very similar record.
