Spo would have turned Booker into Kyle Korver
"Booker u just a baby reddikk to me :Coachumad:"
This would be funny if it weren’t true. He took two whole seasons to figure out how to design an offense around even LeBron. If he could just figure out how the hell to draw up an offense and design offenses :snoop:

Hassan out 1-2 weeks. Bam time.:smugfavre:
Spo and the coaching staff already told you in camp they just want Bam to focus on rebounding and defense already trying to put his game in a box instead of just letting it come naturally.

You no Dragic & Waiters are like great we don’t have to worry about getting Whiteside the ball more shots for us

I just don’t see how someone could develop into a player capable of leading a team to the finals under this staff :beli:

Spo isn’t a bad coach but he is just way to stubborn but he has two rings doing it his way so he has no reason to change. Giving older veteran player certain roles is one thing but to me you should let rookies/young players let the game come to them naturally. Winslow & Richardson games are suffering being force into role that don’t showcase what there strongest/best at.

If Bam has an open 15 footer I want him to take it and not pass because the coach/staff doesn’t want me taking these shots because I’m just post to rebound and play d.

That’s what I’m saying. He knows defense and he works well with veterans, but young players can’t grow if he wants to force them into a box as rigid as he does. We can’t expect a 2010 caliber free agent haul again and the next star will likely have to develop on this team provided that guy isn’t Hassan. I mean look at how he handles him. He’s gotta grow offensively as a coach for our young guys to grow too or they’ll all be severely limited and of little value for the foreseeable future.

There weren’t many positives the Heat can take away from Tuesday’s 108-97 loss to the Cavaliers.

But there is one: Bam Adebayo. The 20-year-old rookie was dominant with a career-high 19 points on 7-of-7 shooting, six rebounds, two assists and one block in 18 minutes.

Even the Cavaliers were impressed. On the latest episode of “Road Trippin'” — the popular podcast started by Richard Jefferson and Channing Frye — Kevin Love, Dwyane Wade, Frye and host Allie Clifton gushed about Adebayo.

Here are their comments …


Frye: “That [guy] I played last night was humongous. I had never seen him before, I’m very impressed. He’s going to be on the scouting report for the rest of the league.”

Wade: “Oh, Adebayo? Bam Bam.”

Love: “He’s good.”

Frye: “Adebayo, what?!”

Clifton: “Did you know why they nicknamed him Bam Bam?”

Frye: “Did you see him?”

Wade: “We thought because he was dunking on everybody.”

Frye: “Do you y’all know how hard it is to put the ball as a righty, drop step and dunk on the left side of your body over somebody. Did you see how he moved Kyle [Korver]?”

Wade: “That’s how athletic you got to be to make things up in mid-air.”

:mjcry: The way Spo is stunting Winslow growth upsets me so much.


We're about to be the new hawks. :sadcam:
Dragic & Waiters take turn going ISO
Waiters is having games where he is taking more then five 3s a game
There no cutting/ball movement

My biggest problem is instead of letting Richardson & Winslow grow and expand there games naturally he is putting there game in a box and limiting what they can do. One of the heat breh was joking but he said Winslow is pretty much Shane Battier and shyt that the role Spo has him playing right now. @Intruder hit the nail on the head on how he is playing Richardson

Spo is fukkin up both Richardson & Winslow development something serious this season it’s just frustrating to watch.

Pat & Spo put this team together but I no Pat didn’t paid Olynyk over 12 mil a year for him to barely even get 15 minutes a night when he was post to be a big offseason signee.

Somebody posed a good question on twitter about this sentiment.

Honestly I don't have an answer. The best I can do is probably 07-09 but even that was about building towards 2010 FA which paid off. Then obviously it was nobody's fault that Bosh had his medical situation in 2015 just as we had traded for Dragic and Whiteside was beginning to emerge. They're going to make moves it's just a matter of when.
