Yeah, he definitely needs more touches. Unfortunately, a lot of people got paid and there's only one ball.

Need to see more Bam too.
Problem is I don’t think WhiteSide and Bam work well together. They’d both clog the lane.

There was much talk about Bam having a nice jumper when we drafted him but I have yet to see it. But he sure can finish and his teammates are feeding him

Who else was on the floor with them at that time?
But see you were quick to point to the scoreboard when the outcome was positive. You didn’t ask who was on the floor tonight

I'm asking for context. There was a black hole who was sitting on the bench tonight when Winslow and Bam were on the floor, I want to know if he was on the floor during the time that tweet was posted.

If by black hole you mean Whiteside, I think he was out during that game

Not talking about Whiteside, can you tell me the 3 other players who were on the court sir
I think only the assistant coaches can give us that information unless you wanna go back and watch the game from the other night.

Personally, the lineup I wanna see with Winslow in it is Winslow, WhiteSide, Olynynk, Dragic and a shooter on the wing.

This would make Winslow and Dragic the only ball handlers with Whiteside to dump it in to and shooters (Olynynk, Dragic and the other shooter) to kick it out to.

Just tank this year and experiment and let's see if he's that #GOT prince that was promised/star that y'all think he can be. Put up or shut up/ sink or swim time so we know what we got before we give him a colossal raise based on potential alone

I don't think Rich's deal is a bad deal. Averaging $10.2M is the price for these players these days. Tim Hardaway Jr and Kent Bazemore both got 4 year $70M+ deals. That's just the market price for young players these days if you look around the NBA. TJs deal is the only one I don't like and his is not as bad as we make it seem now that you look at it. It's how the money is distributed that's the problem
Like I said we're in the wrong business, brehs:mjcry:
But what I'm saying is if you think Winslow can be a star. Say a team other than the Heat feels the same way you do and offers him a Max or damn near Max contract. Are you ready to match it and go all in? If hope we SEE the 'star' befire that.

I just don't believe he's a star in this league. Good player and might even scratch an all star team? YES. But making an all star team doesn't mean you're a star.

But I just want him to have the blank check for one season so we can KNOW exactly what he is so I can either eat my words or y'all shut up and get off Spos back about the cat. It's been 3 fukking years. He's either got it or he doesn't. I been burned by hyped up Heat rookies before. Miner, Reeves, Butler, Wright, and that clown Beasley. I seen this movie before where y'all put your hopes up for something that isn't. I just wanna get it over with so we KNOW once and for all

Hold up let's get to chopping this narrative you pushing. For me it's not stardom or bust, it's just we made an investment so give him the opportunity. Just imagine if McGruder was healthy, Winslow would be averaging 10-15 minutes right now. Guys like Okaro White should be in a suit, not playing 24 minutes. Winslow, Bam, Rich, their development should be prioritized equally
