Mop up time but Wanamaker alley oop to Wiggins, legit baller play

OK I was wrong about the Heat, sorry bks

 

[bksballer89]

Y'all are in this though, good game going on

Clippers are without 4 starters and they're going to lose this game. This is embarrassing

I imagine you feel like Niners fans did this year...runner up, then a crappy year right after.

Switching everything when you have 2 shitty defenders is such a stupid defensive strategy. Then you leave one of your guards who can defend on Zubac who is obviously too big for Jimmy or Iggy in the post.

Just another lazy coaching job by Spo.

Any of us can coach the Heat if the defensive strategy is switch everythign

JaVale laid 6 fouls out there, what a goofball

I love that big idiot

 

[bksballer89]

So easy to attack a team when all they're doing is switching. Put the shitty defenders in a screen so you can have your best offensive player against a crappy defender.

Also, the front office dropped the ball. Dragic is injury prone so to keep not having another real PG is a failure on the front office. Jimmy is the only other player on the team that can play PG

Something isn't right in Atlanta

There was a report from a couple of days ago they were possibly looking into trading him.

 

[bksballer89]

Duncan playing like the undrafted player that he was.

Miami should call Atlanta ASAP and offer Duncan, Precious, and maybe a 2nd round draft pick for John Collins

 

[bksballer89]

This shitty team need to find a way to at least win 1 of their next 2 vs the Warriors and Kings then must beat the Thunder to end the trip next week. Beating the Lakers isn't happening. Going 1-6 or 2-5 on this trip would be a real disaster

This Heat team stink so bad.

Clippers down 4 starters. All you have to do to win is literally defend the 3 ball

What happened in the first half? They let Morris go off for 26 and allowed Morris and in this Coffee guy go 10-11 from 3.

I have as much hate for this group as I had love for the group last season.

What's missing

Hes a one trick pony. Hes very good at it but it's one trick.

 

[bksballer89]

What's missing

1) Duncan playing like ass

2) Dragic can't stay healthy

3) Someone who is a good fit at the 4 next to Bam. Kelly isn't bad but so damn inconsistent. Jones Jr and Crowder were much better fit next to Bam

4) Horrible 3 pt defense and coaching

In 33 minutes he gets you 3 boards and 1 dime basically. He brings almost nothing else to the table. The money someone will pay him to be an excellent 3 point shooter will be a mistake

Yep and teams caught up to it. Bam said it after the Utah game on Saturday. They can't do the things with Duncan that they did last season. Sad thing is he plays such a huge part of the offense because he is the key factor in the dribble hand off offense that they use.

Spo need to get to coaching. He's been shitty this year. Having the front office do a terrible job in the offseason is bad enough but to have the coach be this bad isn't helping. So sick of watching this switching everything defense. Opposing teams must be licking their chops when they play Miami. They literally get to pick their poise. Find a way to get Nunn, Robinson, or Herro on their best offensive players and the game become easy.
