it’s not ware fault we will never win nothing with spo mark my words😂this weak ass 2-3 weak ass coaching bam talking about “we don’t run plays” as if this is not the fucking nba. Yall will never win with Spo mark my words and pin this if u want
Let this sink in….. You talk about Ware.
Jovic :9 points 3 rebounds 2 assist in 28 MINUTES!!!!!!
Ware: 7 points 4 rebounds 12 minutes. ..
Spo is a horrible coach but the nba will never get it pat riley will never get it, a chip will never go to the heat again, I watch the heat and could care less to hate on this man but what coaching is he doing if bam says “we don’t run plays” and he is never active or vocal as a coach, we literally have no coach im sick of how calm Spo is no passion for the game he’s so full of himself it’s crazy
Missed free throws, turnovers and Bam relaxed after halftime
And when ware gets mins no matter if he performs or not we win we need a center on the floor at all times no matter what, he will never develop if he don’t get mins Spo is such a dumbass so are u guys for pointing out players talk about your stupid coach
And this team jumps for every damn hesi Luka was 2/10 from 3 horrible fg % stop jumping all the damn time If spo was a basic coach not even a good one he would realize that
Ware and Jovic lost us the game.
Yes simone was bad
Yes free throws were missed
Yes defensive miscues
At the end of the day, you need more from your limited front court depth. Ware is super passive, Jovic seems lost and unsure when a couple of shots don't fall.
Gotta be better.
Don’t even get me started on Pelle Larson😂😂😂he only has good fg % cuz he’s passive asf so scared to make a play get dat garbage ass nigga off the nba no other team would play him but spo idgaf how many points he gets a real hooper could see he’s scared spo so dumb why not put yo best player rn jaime at guard?😂😂😂😂
I completely agree with David. The offense was fine. The defense was bad tonight. Miami was in a hole early and due to lack of defense, they were never able to get enough stops to take the lead. I'm very concerned with Ware and Jovic… not looking good, and think they're struggling to find roles in this offense… never mind their defense…
So the margin of error so much smaller for the 22 yr old but not the other dickheads fucking up out there if u don't want him should have put him in the Durant trade
WHERE are all the "We don't need Tyler Herro" Stans now?
This game is on Bam. Look, we can talk about injuries, low 3's percentage or missed free throws. But that's two games in a row where we slowed down. We lost because we didn't play our game (aside from Jaime which you mentioned around 15:00). If our TEAM doesn't keep our pace then we won't win, and it's up to the Captain to keep the troops moving full throttle. Idgaf about Bam averaging more than 20 pts, his #1 job is keeping our team engaged and moving full speed. The whole game plan is predicated on it.
Ware was horrible. Hayes scored 15 points 7/7 from the field and had 10 in the 1st. What kind of defense was that? He deserves to get benched!
Wiggins is terrible and Jokic idk how he’s an nba player. I’d rather start Larson over Wiggins with powel
I think Ware is not made for a run and gun game let alone his motor.
He is more effective on a pick n roll .
So you're saying they are going to be better with Powell and Tyler…Sorry to be Mr Negative Powell I get… But if the problem is defense not sure Tyler is going to make them better
i can see Ware is Going to be scape goat for spo failures, Let ware play for stretches to get a rythem
Insert the rookie immediately
Jovic is overthinking his every move. hes realizing a little bit of talent isn’t enough in the nba it’s all about mentality. just ask Jaime
They scored 120 😂 the offense didn't crash it was the putrid defense and turnovers
Not a Heat fan just an NBA fan. Heat value Adebayo too high and hes overpaid nothing special about him, for having supposedly a great coach. They play terrible defense and offense. You guys should go into rebuild there is no star in your team just some good players.
Bad fck coaching didn’t play Ware in 4th got out rebounded defensively they fell as well as not making plays simple you Spo has to make plays for Ware to get easy baskets so everyone else can get easy baskets it’s very simple the only true point guard that’s playing now is Davion you guys keep looking at points Miami doesn’t do pick in role well at all Davion has to do more of that Jaquez is a 2 guard not a point guard period
Real point guards always gets the center involved first simply Jacquez is not a point guard this is why they has to make plays for ware to set up easy shots for everyone else or this system will fail
Spo suspsects Ware to catch on to all the teams defense in his sophomore year no it’s not happening Spo Niko should know all the teams defense he’s been in the league for 5 years but Niko is not a good rebounding player at all this is why they should trade Niko
Why isn't Jovic plastered front oand center on the thumbnail? He's the garbage player that got extended for 62 million
Blame the coach Spo has to make plays for Ware with pick and rolls bad coaching Spo is killing Ware confidence if I’m ware after my contract expires I’ll sign with another team like Charlet hornets Ware is the best player on this Miami team
😂😂😂that’s why Miami will keep loosing because they don’t get ware involved
Ware didn’t play that bad you guys exaggerating with lies it’s Spo and that he doesn’t have a real point guard in to make plays for ware Ware didn’t miss all those free throws😂😂😂
Yall Blame Ware but Niko didn’t do anything from defense to offense 😂😂😂😂 and he played 10 more minutes than ware with 1 rebound
The heat did not get back in the game when they benched Ware. They were down 15 at the half. What are you talking about?
Yea this Goldberg dude doesn't know ball
Ware has to be allowed to play through these times… you can't bench the guy everytime he misses an assignment.. fact of the matter the team is not constructed to win we don't have any superstars so why not just let the young guys play and figure it out on the floor
10 free throws missed 7 turnovers stop blaming Ware start blaming the forwards and guards bad passing no pick and roles Niko no rebounds 😂😂😂😂5 years in the league coach Niko hard stop blaming ware
They didn't have Lebron or Vincent. Herro hasn't played all year and wouldn't have helped defensively. The problem was not having a slasher or Ware and or Bam imposing the inside. Font and Jovic shot horrible. Powell and Herro out is irrelevant
If were relying on a 2nd year player to win games when we have a 50 mil dollar overpaid captain, 26 million dollar nba champ in Wiggins, overpaid Jovic in his 5th year and we focusing and blaning the guy wr knew had a bad motor whej we drafted him…. 😂😂😂😂 , just throw this season away and make a trade for next year to at least compete for the East
