It's messing with his money that's why
If Powell doesn't want to play off the bench then he shouldn't play like a bench player.
Shit rigged league full of overpaid broken cultured clowns
I would offer both guys a 1 year deal at most.
Im sure hes been coming off the bench because of the injuries?
You could see it coming from a mile away. I agree Tyler should start and Norman off the bench idc if he was an all-star. Those two cannot play together not just defensively but offensively.
miami is a wishy-washy team cant decide which they prioritize Herro or Powell. you know what this team will go nowhere without Pelle and JJJ.
Not gonna miss primadonna boy wonderless…
I still do not understand why we have not seen a Tyler, Norm, Wiggins, Bam and ware lineup
We know Bam can’t win & has to be carried. So we have to figure out how Ware, Herro, or Norm can get theirs so this team has a chance. Bam’s good/great = losing to good teams
I think it's better to start norman powell over tyler hero any day
Always remember stupidity is a choice.
Norman Powell also isn't a small forward: He's strictly a 2 and maybe a 1 at times. You cannot have your combo guards playing the 3 and 4. At some point, small ball becomes counterintuitive
He does deserve it… but his injury recently made that change
I feel like this was the best Tyler and norm looked on the floor together all season. I kept being surprised that they were ion the floor together a lot. I did miss half the 3rd quarter where we blew the lead tho but the rest of the game they didn’t look half bad for a change. They just missed a lot of shots but that’s not a fit issue or a line up problem, or a taking turns problem like in previous games.I was encouraged by them together in the lineup for a change. They finally looked in sync to me.
Mitchell hasn't defended well since the all star break. The entire teal defense has dropped since then including Bam.
Powell played same minutes as Tyler. Both in to close when norm had a horrible turnover. Stop bitching
Norm doesn't care about miami winning. He cares about his contract. The clippers knew he was a selfish player.
Powell needs to pass the ball to Herro and get out the way with his goodwill MPJ play style at least MPJ hits the shot Powell never hits anything
Spo cost us the game—AGAIN. In the 4th quarter, our lineup was Bam with Herro, Powell, Mitchell and Larson. They had Ayton, Reaves, James, Doncic, and Smart. Four smalls against four bigs. Mitchell, Bam, and Pelle needed to stay in because they can defend and score if they need to. And where was Ware? On the bench. RIDICULOUS. Ware had 14 points, 9 boards (3 of them offensive) and was a +8 in 21 minutes. Even Fontecchio would have been better than Powell at that juncture. He finally decided to bring him in with 30 seconds left. What the HELL is wrong with this moron? It was a little too late at that point to try to right the ship. It should have never gotten to that point. We could have WON that game. Another thing, Powell and Herro can't be on the court at the same time. That's it. It's that simple. Powell shot us out of this game. At least Herro facilitates for others and rebounds, and most of his shots are good looks.
If both are complaining about coming off the bench & we had 2 choose 1 to keep, I'm rolling with Tyler 🤷🏾♂️
I pick powell over herro in the starting lineup .. powell just make better plays
Idk Tyler the past 2 games that Jumpshot is not dropping..what happened to his Deadly Teardrop at the top of the key????
Spo keep changing the lineup. They don’t have a sturdy starting lineup. So there’s no chemistry. I don’t see how this coach is being considered one of the best in the league 🤷🏿♂️
Our identity is defense with Andrew Wiggins. He’s our second best defender.
Trade herro
Miami Heat win tonight against the Houston Rockets, led by Norman Powell and Bam Adebayo. The intellectual critical line on the team average is the only flag — sloppy stretches are possible. But the emotional cycle at 79% collective means this team fights all the way through. Again! Norman Powell is the player to watch tonight. Physical at 99%, Intellectual at 99.5% — that is a peak convergence you rarely see. All 3 cycles positive and both physical and intellectual are essentially maxed out. If the Heat win, Powell could be the one who takes over the game.
Primary Starting Players
Bam
Norm
Andrew
Jaime
Davion
Secondary Bench Player
Herro

Situational Role Players
Nikola

This season Spo has done a horrible job with not maintaining a regular starting line up . I would go with Tyler , Norman, Wigs , Bam and Ware and stick with it so they can gel
I said this yesterday
Norm hate comin off the bench
Here the Heat go being idiots again. Crazy how one player been playing way more games than the other and being a consistent scorer but has to be the one to ride the bench when the glass canon comes back. Tyler should be the one coming off the bench. Powell, go ahead and get out of here this off season. For your sake.
🤔Powell shouldn’t be complaining buy the F N it’s all about PLAY OFF. A good HAND BOOK BY coach E. Powell u could be the BIGGEST X FACTOR hopefully it’s a mind trick to get ready for the playoffs 🔥HEAT FOR LIFE
Spo's refusal to divorce from Davion starting is the issue
Gotta trade norm. Him and tyler cant play together and that was always gonna be an issue
