not denying that...

but paying that 17 mil to watch him get trashed by bigger and better centers...?

that's all i'm saying...

Guy will be among league leaders in offensive rebounds. Can switch onto a perimeter player as well or better than any of those big/better centers. How many bigger/better centers are you thinking will trash him?

went against Vucevic last night and held his own.

Drummond gives him trouble, but guessing Lakers wouldn't need to worry about him.

Sorry, but even a team not going anywhere this season (the Cavs) could match their 9-11 and 12 (and add a 13th.

Do you know what deep means? Never said they're the best. I said they're deep which essentially means they have 11 or 12 rotation guys or better yet at least 6 guys off the bench that would get playing time on most teams

Yes, I know what it means, and I showed you an example.

They have 11-12 rotation guys because 11-12 are not much better than 7-9. The fact a team like the Cavs has guys at 9-12 as good as Miami makes your deep theory useless.

Im not comparing the heat to no other team. You wasted your time bringing up the cavs.

I am trying to explain to you they are only deep in your eyes because their 7-9th guys are not good enough to hold off 10-12.

Do you really not understand this?

The Cavs 9-12 players this year would have kicked the Warriors 9-12 players asses last year. Context is key.

No doubt.....All I'm saying is the Heat fans who want some sort of medal for their "deep roster" need to realize it's only deep enough to play 10-12 guys because the guys at 7-9 in the rotation have not separated themselves enough to get all the minutes (and have 10-12 on bench like most teams...or at least 11-12)

Not sure why he doesn't get it.

well, yes I am.

I understand it perfectly fine. It is just irrelevant to me. That is literally the point of having a deep bench. You dont want to have a huge drop off between guys 7-9 and 10-12 so yeah i don't care about your point

 

[bksballer89]

Teams should want the 9-12 guys on their bench to be close to the same level as the 7th and 8th guys. It is a good thing but yeah keep acting like it is a bad thing lol

Oh my, maybe someone else can explain this game to you. I'll give it another go, though. Let's start with this.........do you acknowledge the Cavs 10-12 are as good or better than Miami?

A) Yes, they are as good or better
B) no, they are not

did you really say it's ideal that your 7th man not be much better than your 12?

come on.

Yea im done debating this. You prefer benches with 2 or 3 players followed by a lot of trash players i prefer a bench with 5 or 6 good players and no trash players

Sorry @Bolts

Tacko Fall- walking accident waiting to happen?

He was working out at the Auerbach Center practice facility on Friday. He didn't notice the ceiling height, banged his head & gave himself a concussion.

Fall said it was due to a "low ceiling".

Low ceiling? Get the fuck outta here Tacko! You're 7-6. Concussion are nothing to laugh at but this story is funny.

 

[Heatles84]

Dion Waiters- suspended for being an asshole

Jimmy Butler- MIA for "personal reasons"

James Johnson- benched for being fat


Ladies and gentleman- PAT RILEY AS YOUR GM IN 2019! lol

asleep at the wheel

Don't recognize teams that haven't won a game yet.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Cavs 8-12 just as good. But if you say so.

Cavs should worry about 1-7 lol.
They are one of there leagues worst teams.

Yes, we know the spin, its a good thing to suck.

Enjoy.

Im not comparing the heat to no other team. You wasted your time bringing up the cavs.

Some Cavs fans here are very obsessed with the Heat.

Not true at all.
Plus, even if it was, how ids that a bad thing if those players are all good players?

That's my point.

Deeper benches is important for regular season success due to injuries that will happen throughout the season
