Imagine if Miami had a young, quality, two-way PG and the luxury of having Lowry come off the bench for 20-25 minutes? They needed Highsmith tonight. Second unit scored only 20 points. 18 were by Smith and Duncan. That won't cut it.
Wish Spo woulda just taken the T there. They had the non review of the swing to Love’s face and the 10 second late whistle. Just rail on them at that point.
Being a Heat Fan, I feel that Porzingis will be a terror in the post. If I put myself in the position of a Celtic fan, I feel irritated at the tenacity and hustle of the smaller heat players who won't give up easily.
I feel like Porzingus is a player who fit a Miami need a lot more than Boston. Boston got more talented, but a lot less physical. Losing Williams, Smart, and Grant Williams I think will hurt them come the playoffs. But talent does win titles as Miami knows all too well, so maybe it won’t.
Heat's bench played more minutes in the 2nd qtr as opposed to the Cs that played almost the 2nd qrt with their 1st unit.To me that was the difference that led to TO, poor defense and a disjointed Heat's offense.
I think he’s gonna be buried most of the year barring injuries. Remember they are missing Martin, Highsmight and Richardson tonight. I think Jovic is the 14th man.
Thanks DieHard.
WTF happened? Did HHH fall off the end of the earth? WTF?
Hey SunMan,

A truly discombobulated site.

Our 2nd unit and weak Butler performance let this go. Time to Hampton instead of Dru and HH instead of Cain.

and that's it. good game. looks like an even matchup
BS call!
lol celts getting scared again. lead just 3
Should’ve been a flagrant 1
On Horford
Bam only has 2 fouls?
only 1!
Refs letting a lot of contact go, but hard to complain, seems fairly even.
one more push...Go Heat!!!
That’s probably gonna be it, barring some heroics.
attack tatum and porzi foul trouble
Playing the 2’s for 6 minutes straight in Q2 and 4 is strange.
Miami needs a run
ooop first to 100 hehe
I get Jimmy’s not 25, but Spo this game could quickly get outta hand.
ei! the other site is up and running!
but i guess lets finish this here lol
Yes
Time to put the starters back in Spo. That last 3, coulda been saved if he recognized this a minute ago.
d white heat killer
final quarter. lezzgo Heat!!!
Props to the Heat for going toe to toe even with Butler not having a very good game. Hopefully he comes alive in the 4th to steal the win
nice 3rd q
jrue got arm there
Duncan!
Lowry having a game I wasn’t sure he still had the ability to.
Glad to see Lowry playing much better
These Heat players are bulldogs man, respect to them.

Shocking how disorganized the Heat look and yet still right in it.
Butler needs to do a hell of a lot more.
Maybe he needs to play an occasional pre season game to get used to live action, instead of dnp’s.
Correct
Bad defensive 2nd quarter. But I'll take it. According to espn Heat's got less 30% probability to win. That's too much!! Lol

I think it’s Dorris Burk, but man I might have to mute my tv. Just awful. I thought national squads should be fairly even keeled, but nope.
Doris is tough to listen to
Lots of TOs in the 2nd quarter for the Heat.
New kids on the (turnover) block
Wait to see what adjustments both teams make after the break. The Cs seemed to have upped the tempo.
Can see the Cs using Porzi a lot in the post against smaller Heat team in future games.
Miami looks awful right now.
Disappointed that 6’10” Jovic hasn’t gotten any minutes
Stay cool, the season is early. His minutes are going to peak yup late in the season.Let Cain and Dru take the early season strain for now.
I think he’s gonna be buried most of the year barring injuries. Remember they are missing Martin, Highsmight and Richardson tonight. I think Jovic is the 14th man.
Q2 was ugly for Miami. Murdered on the glass a too many turnovers.
There you go. JT has been doing that, finally got called for it
Brown has promised himself to play hard defense on the Heat.
Hope they get the lead back. Go Heat!!!
Oof. Dru Smith with a lazy pass right after the Herro one. Crazy
I wonder if hfl is at a Halloween party tonight. If yes, he is probably dressed as the grinch 😂😂
Maybe he's alone and the only one able to post at the new blog lol
And the wheels coming off. What was Tyler thinking.
Lackadaisical
like-a-daisy-cal.
Jrue's got a score to settle lol
Cain and Dre have lived up to the speed of real NBA games.I'm impressed.
This game has play off feel about it.I guess in a way both team are playing for regular season home court advantage.
And bragging rights
that too.
Is that Cain?
Yup. A bit surprised he’s also ahead of Jovic. Last years pick is Yurt level burried.
Also could this play by play team be rooting for the Celtics any harder?
I’m on the Heat broadcast. Unfortunately, the sound is erratic on my provider
In each of the first two, Spo has given the 2’s a long run without any starter except Herro.
Dru Smith has made two, but they sure don’t have a pretty arc.
