I know yall feel it too. We are back.
I like our team!
80-2 record incoming. (Since we always seem to lose on the road in Denver)
Well done
81 – 1 season incoming
LFG Heat
That was an **insane** performance. The **All-Time record for points in a half at 86.** Previous record was 82 done vs [the Cavs in 2020,](https://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/202002220MIA.html) [the Spurs in 2025,](https://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/202501190MIA.html) and the [Pelicans in 2025.](https://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/202504110NOP.html) I am personally gonna put this ass-whooping in even further rarified air up there with the time we [obliterated Houston in the 1st Q in 2019](https://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/201911030MIA.html), [embarrassed Cronin and the Blazers in 2024,](https://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/202403290MIA.html), and [annihilated AD/Bron last year.](https://www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/202412040MIA.html)
Just a few insane stats from tonight…
* Bam scored as many points as he did vs Orlando (15) in the first 6min tonight
* Fontecchio was a perfect 4/4 from 3 in the 1st half, we have our new Duncan
* JJJ with a mind boggling +36 in the 1st half in 16 minutes is unheard of
* Grizz cut the lead to less than 30pts in the 3rd Q and we responded with an 11-0 run
* I am declaring it. Jaren Jackson Jr. is **ineligible** to finish Top 5 in DPOY after this performance
I have Memphis pegged as a bottom half team in the West. We’ll see how good they end up being. But it’s not like this was all random dudes compared to the hospital roster they had 2 years ago. They won 48 games last year. This was cathartic given the Ja buzzer beater last year. Through 2 games, Spo’s talk of a [“new offense”](https://np.reddit.com/r/heat/comments/1nznju6/bam_adebayo_on_the_heat_new_look_offense_its_a_no/) is holding 1000% true and I’m loving it. Can’t wait for the home opener vs the stinkin’ Knicks on Sunday!
Friendship ended with Duncan. Fontecchio is my new best friend now.
Hey, we are fun to watch again and this is without herro. We could be good
First win since the play in tournament let’s gooo
Pat is AWAKE!
This offense is going to be fun.

Fontecchio I love you.
Grizzlies good lord lol. But What’s the timeline for Herro? Any word?
This is Heat still adjusting to the new offensive style (it shows with the turnovers).
FONTEEEEE WHAT UP DOE
The funniest thing about the win was watching Ty Jerome on the bench witnessing this after what he did against us in the playoffs 😅
Bam, Heat fans said you’ve peaked offensively. JJJ, Heat fans said you’re done after 1 bad year. Norman, Heat fans said you’re not a needle mover or the star we need. Spo, Heat fans said your team is a play in team at best.
Keep proving these dumbass fans wrong let’s go heat!!!!
Once Herro gets back in the rotation we’ll be rolling 🔥🔥🔥
No one’s been a bigger JJJ hater than me. But I do root for him
First team to reach 140 this season without OT. And we could’ve easily had 150. And no Tyler. Oh my god are we back?
Winning is fun.
Happy Birthday Fonte!
Game 1, six players in double figures and a couple double doubles
Game 2, eight players in double figures and one double double
Good start to the season!
The pace is definitely how this team should be playing. Too many young guys who can dribble to not play this fast and it’s looking like it’s working early.
JJJ and Jovic with a combined +90 tn
Last time we were a high pace offense we were in the finals. LFG Heat
JAIME JAQUEZ **+43**
A lot of good to come from this game, especially from Ware, Jaquez and Jovic. Jaquez especially looks great because he’s playing to his strengths again like his rookie season instead of being a spot up 3 point shooter. Fontecchio and Bam shot the lights out and the defense was on point. Very good win
Wiggins finished the game with a plus minus of zero in a 40 point blow out. My brain can’t process this.
best and most complete game of jaime’s career. all the bums that talked shit about him and ran with the fking rumors can suck itttt
Despite the last loss i thought they did play well, just was a competitive game and shots didnt fall. The offense looks nice and our bench also stepped up. Keep the two big line up going!
Knicks up next. I won’t believe we’re back until I see a dub with decent separation twice in a row
I fear I may be hooked once more because I have NEVER seen the offense that fluid and sharp and good.
First things first I was wrong about Fontecchio I will fully admit. He has hooped to start the season and has been an excellent microwave scoring option
Second Mitchell 7 assists, really looks like that game 1 wasn’t a total fluke. He may just be a solid facilitator for us
Norman Powell I love you. He has been a light in the tunnel for our offence and i’m so glad we picked him up.
Jaquez may just be back and I am so thrilled by that prospect
Finally Bam 4 threes, 50%. You love to see it
wtf happened? What the heck is that score??? Why did I have work and missed this game 😓
We see you Simone!
