J-Rich and McRob practiced today -- this is very encouraging. Still no timetable on a return, though.

McRob may be a little closer to returning than Rich, IMO

I disagree with Ira here. Its pretty simple IMO. McGruder drops out of the rotation when Richardson returns. Same for James Johnson when McBob return.

I could even see a situation where both Babbitt and Johnson are out of the rotation

Isn't he back? He's not on the injury report but J-Rich is

Well, I meant " back" as in action getting into a game. McRob is off the injury list but is yet to play.

Did Ira really say McGruder would stay ahead even upon a J-Rich return? I don't see it anywhere.

Anyhow, no player just making it back from injury should be ahead of anyone right now -- They need to be worked back in and earn their spot regardless of how the guys in front of them are playing right now. At least in the case of guys like McGruder and Babbitt.

Now, as far as having someone jump ahead of James Johnson in the rotation, thats a different story -- he has continued to play his way out of the rotation but there hasn't been too many options as of now -- that changes when guys return.

If its not an injury, I suspect Derrick Williams is not getting the job done in practice and such as to why he has yet to get any minutes -- in this organization you have to earn your way -- as much as the Heat may need what Derrick Williams can bring, if he hasn't earned it in the eyes of the organization, thats why he hasn't played yet.

No he didn't say that. He just said rotations decisions are about to get a lot more interesting which I disagree with. McGruder and Jones or Babbitt falls out of the rotation when Josh and J-Rich returns

Looks as though J-Rich will be available if needed tonight Per Ira Winderman

I intended to post this when it came out but I forgot. The final 2 minute report on the game against the Kings.

Winslow needs to continue working on his shot.

Goran on fire from outside. As good a start as the Heat could ask for at least through this first time out

FTs must become a priority for the Heat
