Heat fucking them up.

Jimmy jump shot is working tonight. I have not been able to say that much this season.

True.
He’s been a very good scorer, but not a very good shooter.

Philly 9-18 on the road now. That is usually the record of a bad team.

 

[TurnUpTheHeat]

Toronto, Boston, and Miami creating a little separation from Indy and Philly.

Toronto with 14 losses. Miami and Boston with 15 losses. Indy at 19 and Philly at 20.

Big West Coast trip upcoming.
3-2 would be lovely.

We can get so much better if he get more consistent with that. He is shooting 26% outside the paint this season. Went 5-7 tonight

Possible. Got to beat Sac and GSW then hope they find a way to win 1 of those games vs Clippers, Blazers, or Jazz

Hopefully Herro and Leonard are ok.
Winslow is a ghost to me at this point.

I forgot he exist.

Don't care much about Leonard (as a player) TBH but I do hope it isn't serious. Good news is Waiters and Johnson no longer seem like they're in that deep doghouse so if Herro and Leonard are not available then at least we have 2 solid players to replace them in Waiters and JJ

I hope you beat them all

“I am sure the Cavs could have spent a shit ton of money on mediocre players like the Heat have done- but I guess I just dont value an 8 seed and a first round ass whooping as much as acquiring a high lotto pick, and renting out cap space to get an additional 2 first rounders and 6 2nd rounders.

I guess trading away picks and ruining your cap space to get the 8th seed and a first round ass whooping is preferable to tanking. Hey- to each their own.” @WiggyRuss

Like I said back in the Summer, they fucked their roster over by letting Butler and Redick walk. They should have been top priority and did everything in their power to keep them. Butler was happy in Philly last year. But they didn't prioritize him the way he felt they should so he sought other teams. Paying big bucks for Tobias Harris over those two is fucking stupid.

Philly needs a trade.

Pieces don't fit.

Outside of Conley Jr, Horford has been the most disappointing major acquisition.

Live look at Brett Brown figuring out his motion offense with the Sixers lineup...

 

[Heatles84]

Thank god Dallas is in the West. That team's going to be a nightmare in the playoffs.

 

[Heatles84]

Don't disrespect Lilliard like that.

Lillard last year got his team to the conference finals and has been in the playoffs for multiple years. His teams rarely are mediocre let alone trash.

 

[Heatles84]

Lillard team is almost always in the playoffs and just last year his team made a conference finala

Great minds

 

[Heatles84]

Brett Brown is a dead man walking.....the 76ers have given up on him.

Been saying this for years.

This is why I say you can't just tank and fall into a title. The NBA, for as talent-driven as it is compared to other sports, still requires a competent front office.
