Their momentum went out the window in the 3rd quarter. You can see it in the body movement. Sad situation
Wes still blaming jimmy is ridiculous
Bro youβre missing the play ins this year ππππππ
Jimmy 12-1βΌοΈπͺπΎ Jimmy Karmaππππ At Least Pat Showed Who's Boss ππππ
Pat is running the Franchise like Danny Ainge. They just sit around year after year only making minor marginal moves
See y'all next year I can't keep watching them play three quarters
I say no to KD. Miami should stay young.
Those demons are winning the battle and the war, Thanks spo ππππ Jimmy should've gotten paid, age just a number. How bad you wanna win, that can't be taught. You Either have that dog in you or you don't, Heat Culture left when Haslem and Jimmy left the building. I look forward to the next loss, its sad but it's the damn truth πππ
Erica Spo is clueless when it comes to lineup. Guys are getting killed, and he won't pull them. Fire Erika heat problem solved
I remember how happy you guys were when Jimmy wanted out and was eventually traded. Hope you are enjoying yourselves. Now the team is completely aimless and is completely unwatchable. They're not even giving reps to the kids lol.
I feel this season like that feeling of the Michael Beasley years. Maybe this is part of the cycle to restructure new talent.
I really think the fix is simple, cut off the points in the print in the third and fourth quarter. It's the common denominator and all these losses, miami's opponent is attacking the paint meanwhile, miami is being denied access to the paint and they settle for threes and jumpers, and they're missing them.
Poor multi-millionaire $ basketball players don't have "JOY" playing the game. So sad!!!
Heat will be fine.
Wes – about time you stopped blaming Jimmy for all these man. The more you do, the more you expose the current roster's lack of ability to win and also its lack of winning mentality without Jimmy. After all, these are professional players and they should have got over the saga long ago.
Also plz stop saying as if the Jimmy saga plagued the whole season man. You know the Heat were playing the best of their basketball over a month's time leading up to the saga: From mid-Nov (Jimmy's return from the minor leg injury) to late-Dec (when he left the game vs OKC in the early part due to stomachache issues and led to the saga eventually), the Heat were a very winning team (8-4), with Jimmy averaging 22-7-5 w/ 60%fg.
Lastly, i'm horrified to hear you're even toying w/ the idea of trading for KD offseason. You can't possibly think that KD + current roster (minus a lot of assets you'll have to give away for KD) can outperform the original Heat roster in a multiverse world where Jimmy got his extension. Sure KD is a more prolific scorer and a bigger super star on an individual level, but he can never lead the current Heat team to compete for championship like Jimmy did. The GS warriors are rolling rn not because Jimmy is dropping 25-30 every night. It's because Jimmy is uplifting the whole squad and especially the young players there, just like he did in Miami. If you can't see this fact, I'd seriously question your credibility as the Miami Heat podcasters.
The Heat players who'd been with Jimmy in the trenches saw that Pat didn't pay or build around Jimmy as he deserved. How can you have joy, if that's what you see?
Locked on Tank π
David is lame
I hope now that Pat and Spo r happy now!! When Jimmy said we r mediocre and we need help they ignored him and turn against him!! We need stars !! The arena is not full like before and the supporters are living in the beginning of the fourth quarter not anymore at the end !! We r loosing and Golden State r winning!! Good job Heat !!π‘π‘π‘
Theyβre just missing a max player who deserved his extension.
Tanking 101
Pick heat to the lose the 4th every game π€
Well one way to we need to beat GS
We can take pride in this
Another friendly reminder that every time a potential trade would come around, these podcasters were always talking about how they shouldnβt trade their young βstars.β
Y'all should just leave them credit cookies in the oven until next season.
Retire Pat.
Let's go heat.
