Official Game Thread: heat "at" Hawks

[bleachkit]

Did I mention Miami has no Jimmy or Bam?

Garbage offense . . . lead right back up to 21 as soon as Trae takes his "designated" rest.

If this losing streak continues, will Ressler fire Nate and pay him out?  Surely he wouldn't, if he doesn't even want to pay the tax.

Our wings as a group are just vastly overrated by our fan base.

Agree completely with this.

If Im Travis I"M making EVERYBODY available at this point ... smdh

Hunter is easily our best all around player, but he cant stay healthy..

 

 

No Hunter isn't.

He's been decent offensively this game, but he's getting torched on defense.  And has been getting torched in the games he played before the injury.

Hunter is a nice young player.  But check this out.

 

Rank the wings ( 1 - 4 ) in the Southeast division as a group.   Out of Atlanta, Charlotte, Miami, and Washington . . . which team has the best wings, and rank the rest.

Okongwu is overrated by the fan base, too.  I like him a lot, but he’s not on the level fans make him out to be.  

[Sothron]

We haven't won a home game since November 22nd. Let me repeat that: we have not won a home game since November 22nd. The same team and coach that was two wins from the Finals half a year ago. I have no words.

Huerter is starting to take dumber shots than Reddish

We cut it to 14 when he was attacking.   He goes out . . lead is back over 20.

He's the offensive engine of the team.  And I want that engine going full speed every game, no matter how upset some other less talented offensive players get.  They can't even roll the car down the street, so let Trae be the engine.

That's absolutely incredible.  That has to be the longest home losing streak in about 20 years.

This team isnt winning games either way... He's been the engine all season.....What does that tell you? Maybe its time to rebuild the engine...

I'm sure I can find examples but I don't have the heart or energy to go look for it. We have Trae and Collins and at times OO and Capela. We need to make some trades. This team is just not working.

Why does no wing even attempt to rebound a missed three pointer. They just sit there and watch it and fade slowly back on defense. The sad thing is they still don’t even get set in defense. Smdh.

Okongwu gets a complete pass though.  At least he plays hard and is energetic. 

Bench trying to play a little ball.  Not dead yet.

Just keep it within striking range, so Trae and the boys can possibly bring it home.

Although if Nate was a REAL COACH, he's let this group go as long as they could, if they continued to cut into this lead.  

At that point, damn a rotation.  Get a win.

Cut to 13 without Trae
