What was your top takeaway from the Heat game tonight?
Miami Heat Fans: SMASH the like button if you love everything around the Heat!
What did you expect
you could've had all NBA Kevin Durant for very little and we would've had a extremely good team. Fire Pat Riley
Ware has to bulk up a bit more,move quicker
Bro cmon “blow opportunity” it’s game 1 of 82, I was very encouraged with how we played even tho we lost, the positives definitely outweigh the negatives
I'm sorry. Bam has got to go.
there's some potential here to compete, lots of guys on the roster that can contribute, but have to close these games out
Bam's got effort, because he lacks height than Ware, and Ware too lazy to go on Offense/Defensive Rebound because he relies SOLELY on his HEIGHT
I agree, Miami is always undersize line up ever in nba
This whole impact winning stuff is just bs. Ware played well enough tonight. He needs to play more. Spo is delusional playing anyone else over him
I don't understand how a coach that can barely get his team to the play in is head coach of team USA
Your Miami heat do that well they were not in The underdogs we were told we were told the magic we're under those by nine and a half points but we beat the Miami heat by 4 so I'll take it special Andrew Wiggins and is Miami heat debut well he scored 11 points that's pathetic my my Jalen sucks did well for his debut coming back from knee surgery he scored more points than Andrew Wiggins did I don't know how many points Jalen Suggs scored but I know he scored a lot more than Andrew Wiggins score a whole lot more than the Miami heat player I know that for sure great for my hometown Orlando Magic I like the Orlando Magic I like when they beat up the Miami heat no personal no offense to any Miami heat fan out there and you know what Paolo Banchero didn't do too bad for his debut he scored a double-double 24 points 11 boards now that's the big old man I know he might only play 16 minutes been restricted because of knee surgery but you know what he did really good he impressed me Jalen suds was better than your Miami heat team Miami sucks you're in year out when's the last time they made the playoffs it's been a long time I don't think they're ever going to get there with this team think about it and they just signed our coach to a long-term contract how pathetic why the magic only signed our coach to only a four-year contract this is the hope the Build the team you don't you don't sign to someone long-term contract they're not going to help Build the team like owner Pat Riley and don't tell me about Riley's not pathetic owner Because he is and when I'm saying is the whole thing is the truth and nothing but the truth the truth hurts but that's the truth and I was just leave it as that.? @heatreport
ever since Butler left they been trash lol
This is my first time posting on your braodcast. It seems to me that you seem to think you know more than Coach Spo? If the Heat are going to change their offensive mondset and play a quicker pace it will take time. Lets all remember no T-Hero. No probelm with the truth but lets be clear Coach Spo is the best coach in the NBA-If you are a Heat lifer you might want to give feedback on the Team's progress and the good things about the game tonight becasue there is a lot to be excited about. Just my opionion-just like you give your opinion. Heat Lifer!
Terrible excuses for Spo not to play Ware. This "do it in practice" crap isn't good for development. Let's look at what we have:
Ware practicing box outs and rebounding against Bam as the biggest obstacle in practice,who isn't aggressive. Then they put Ware in games expecting him to play mad aggressive on the boards when our star player never plays like that anymore. Then once they see "oh no he didn't box out that guy correctly" you pull him? This is how we destroy our young talent every year and then watch young players blossom on other teams and we're like "we have Spo, best coach, must be the player"
Play the kid dangit. Let him get his reps again the bigs in the league. It's the best option especially since we're not going to no Championship this year.
You should say same old spo and bam. Ya overrated favorite coach lost us the game at the end of the 4th quarter by being stuck in his ways playing small ball. Ware should’ve been in the game at the end we needed size. And bam needs to man up he’s being too soft.
Jovic so overrated
What was the point of extending nikola jovic? Bro is trash and for some reason the Heat have that kid on a pedestal
Tbh what kept you guys in the game was incredible shot making in the first quarter.. couldn’t miss
Yea let’s not play our baby wemby smart spo lol this teams a joke
Tired of jovic hype play Ware damn he 7 foot tall
Good luck to Fontecchio: he has the mindset to fit in Heat culture and become an important piece of the rotation
Like i said niko is for bench start ware
Where was bam at ?????
