Let's talk about that zone defense last night...

I was pissed as hell that he stuck with it but JVG said that showed guts cause he didn't bytch up when Boston scored a couple buckets


What y'all think?
Sometimes you gotta stand your ground with what you know has been proven to work. Boston may make changes to get over the zone but they are still naturally uncomfortable playing against it so they will not be as successful as they would be against man-to-man. I trust that the Heat coaching staff are not the idiots some of us in here like to think they are. :manny:

When guys are producing at a high level on rookie deals, gonna make Riley's life much easier in terms of getting a star.

Giannis :whew: will have Duncan and Herro open all day.
Bam and Giannis on the fast break :whew:

With Jimmy Butler full of energy to play defense :whew:

Nunn and an aging Dragic off the bench.

I thought they were going to get out of it at one point when Spo called timeout after a Boston run. But they came back and stayed in it and actually forced a few turnovers. So he must’ve seen something and adjusted. That’s why Spo is there and we’re here.

Still don’t know wtf he was thinking with Solomon Hill though.
:dead:

I wonder if DJJ is hurt. Because he’s played pretty well when he’s been in there. Even hitting a few 3s. And he’s definitely better than Hill

Herro and Bam about to be the best young duo in the league :ohhh:

When Okpala comes through next year :mjlit:
Bam still has a lot of work to do on his game before he's a star for real. He' made the all-star team but not quite a star yet. Once he develops a solid 12-footer from the elbows and baseline he'll be scary as fukk and terrorize this league.

Herro is rising up the star ladder #IRWT

Im excited to see how Okpala develops. I see a slower but better version of DJJ as his absolute floor. He could be a poor man's Giannis in the making. We'll see. I now trust this coaching staff to develop players. Seems like after the Spurs whooped us we learned our lesson and copied some of their blueprint and added our own tweaks to it

That's what;s making me nervous right now. He's been a lot like LeBron in the way he avoids injuries and plays though minor injuries unlike our Dukie diva Bustise. We'll need him to finish this out
