Guys like Bogi, Huerter, Hunter and Gallo needed to make the heat pay by hitting their 3s consistently to soften up the middle and with CC and JC pretty much unavailable there was no real lob threat. His contract is already signed sealed delivered so I don't think you can change it. A player has to miss a specific number of games for insurance to cover it. In terms of career ending...a team of independent doctors will have to conclude that he can never play basketball again. I'm good on this one. -
Don't want us on a coaching carousel but this grates my nerve. He needs better assistants.

...reading this on a zoom call is no Bueno.

My final thoughts on our short playoff run: 1. To use a line from my favorite movie The Shawshank Redemption: "Trae upped and vanished like a fart in the wind" in this series. However, like he said sometimes you need to go through stuff to become better. (Credit Miami defense) 2. Clint, JC, Bogi - heal up. Their absences were too much to overcome. 3. Hunter - he got better as the series went on. 4. Huerter - just wasn't impactful enough 5. OO - improved as the series progressed 6. Delon - our most consistent player. -

Y'all need to forget about this Simmons guy, we broke him. Think he wants to play for the team that did this to him: Hope he gets the help he needs. -

Part of that is relieving the offensive burden/ load of him having to create for himself and everyone else. -

You actually have to have a real system to do it and run it with intention....and it doesn't always mean he'll score from those plays because like you said he has great vision and passing skills so he can also get easier shots for teammates. It just prevents the defense from keying in on him from a more stationary position. -
