Few observations

  1. I forgot how much i couldnt stand that JJ Barea f@ggot. Props to him for being good at his job (being a pesky defender) but i cant stand that fukka.
  2. Spoelstra should be on the short list for Coach of the Year
  3. Incredible how hard Jimmy works on the defensive end. The way he fought through a pick and closed in on a shooter even after playing all them minutes is just unbelievable.
  4. PLus Jimmy's effort on defense is also rubbing off on the youngins. Despite the short arms or whatever some of you were worried about Herro makes it a point to go hard on defense.
  5. I know that's not his game but i'd love to see Bam go a stretch of 4 to 5 games where he makes a conscious effort to pass little less and score more. I feel like he sometimes overpasses a little like that time he was in the lane and had an open floater or layup but opted to dish it out for the Leonard Meyers 3 + I just wanna see what he's been working on (move wise) when he takes lots of shot attempts. He still has some bad habits he needs to quit when it comes to handling the ball around defenders in the low-post. Sometimes he brings it down too low around multiple defenders which could leave to it being hacked at below.
  6. Some of you need to give Olynyk a break. The guy works hard and is a key piece or our spacing when he lures his defender all the way out to the 3pt line thus leaving space for Jimmy and others to drive to the basket without having to worry about these 7 footers lurking in the paint.

Jimmy said in the post game that the guys had told Spo before the game that it didn’t matter how many minutes they played because they didn’t want to lose back to back

I understand that but sometimes spo gotta save jimmy from himself and others too. U play 40 minutes give them the next practice off

Get rid of Olynyk
Why? :francis:
Because he struggled against Anthony Davis? Isnt that what makes elite players elite? Making average players like Olynyk look inferior? So now you wanna get rid of him?

Exactly! Guys like Jimmy and Zo are the type that you have to save from themselves because they dont know when to tone it down.

He should only be spot up shooting, he can’t create/doesn’t know what to do when he puts the ball on the floor. Seen this with him going back when he was with the Celtics.

I’m pretty sure he already gives him days off. Spo ain’t dumb

Olynyk does create tho. He had a clutch pump fake and drive to the basket where he dumped it off to Bam for an assist when we badly needed it last night

We should just trade for Steven Adams to be our number 2 off the bench center. Dion, JJ and a draft pick. That would allow us to be competitive against big teams and counter LA with Bam and Steven Adams.

Meh, Olynyk is fine but we just won't beat a big ass line up.

Who the fukk is trading for Dion? Come on man be realistic, some team will probably want him down the line but not trade for him
