Who deserves the most blame for the Miami Heat's bad play over the last couple months?
This team needs to be nuked
Bam and Jovic not diving for the ball is what did it for me. It's not so much about losing its the mental toughness and that dawg mentality this team lacks! Pitiful
Bam is the biggest problem on the team.
I mean jovic getting more minutes than jovic is crazy. I think there is a debate for hero to start or not (I think he should) but for ware not to start and not even starting but getting less minutes than jovic. Not starting when we are missing powell ….. MAKES NO SENSE SPO. ware should start ESPECIALLY WHEN A PLAYER IS INJURED!! easily just put wiggins at sf instead of starting Larson. Love Larson but he should not be starting instead of ware. JOVIC SHOULD NOT GET MORE MINUTES THAN WARE!! THIS IS INSANITY. I DON'T GET IT! SPO HAS LOST HIS MIND BRO!!!!!
I didn't even see this game tbh. I had a feeling we'd lose this game. idek how to feel about this team anymore. My brain is solely focused on wanting the Canes to beat Indiana so badly lol
Bam Heat captain 6 points 😂😂😂
Give Warriors Bam & Herro rather take back quitting Jimmy buckets back at this point
@ 11:20 You had me cracking up!!! 😂😂😂
Ok… to all my young management prospects… Some of us knew that Bam is/was no Team Captain material. Whoever made that decision was desperate with his options. I would keep Bam on my team, but as a complimentary player… thats it. As a forward. I would drill his practices with layups, after layups and if he fell down… he's running the court. You have to make him tough or hit the bench!
Bam wont dive for the ball but if A ja Wilson tells him to do it, he will. and i'll say it for the 1000th time, Spo is ALLERGIC TO CENTERS. This is the one thing he didnt learn from Pat Riley: Riley had Kareem, Zo, Ewing, Shaq. Spo looks at every center like they were Hassan Whiteside. One more impt thing: Spo CAN NEVER be fired. Unfortunately, we're stuck with him.
Agree, we didn't lose because of Tyler… as for his attitude… If I was Spo, I would use that to make him play better! Use that energy to make it work for you and the team.
Agree 100% about Ware. My guy has to learn in the court not the bench. Any other team would start him … except Spo.
Lastly, Spo… I would get rid of him in the blink of an eye. I've been consistent since 2014…
Trade Bam to ATL for their Pelicans first rounder. They’re buyers and looking for a big.
Or trade him to OKC for their Clippers first round pick.
Or to SA for some kind of haul (including their ATL frp).
Trade Tyler and Powell (and Wiggins and Mitchell if the offers are good), and tank this year. Go into this draft with 2 lottery picks and get Caleb Wilson or Yaxel Lendeborg to replace Bam. Get Kingston Flemings or Cameron Carr to be your lead scoring guard.
Don’t even care if we suck next year cause we have protections on the Rozier Charlotte pick. It will be more fun to watch either way.
Boot Spo out of here and either replace him with Bisaccio or someone outside the Heat hive mind.
Don’t ever bring up Heat Culture again. It’s time for new leadership and a commitment to a new culture. The one we got is a paper tiger.
You have to give me a shout out. I have been saying bam is not a good basketball player for a long time
This channel knows I have been saying for a long time. Bam is not good.
When the leader of the team plays bad, everyone else plays bad
I get the negative comments about Spo, but there are way worse coaches. So I don’t think he should be fired. Definitely something they would regret
Damn bro ,Ware doesn’t deserve this man ,He need 30 plus minutes a game,,Bambi gotta go
Yet when the heat win this dude will be glazing them hard 😅
Time to trade bam but Herro has got to go too. We already know what Bam and Herro team looks like . IT LOOKS LIKE THIS.😂 Any other franchise would have traded Bam and Herro 2 years ago. The Heat tried to tradd Tyler for Dame but Portland didnt want him
It does look like this team doesnt want to play for Spo and really arent paying attention to Bam. Even Norm said players arent running the plays Spo calls
Herro has a pretty big ego for a guy who got swept in the first round last season and even had the Cavs call him out😄
Bro, you're right on the money! Totally agree with you, the only way for this team is to rebuild. Get as many picks as possible.
We all seen this before!
Win the play In for no reason
Miss out on a top 10 pick
Get killed in the first round
Start the season waiting for Bam/Herro leaps
i turned on the game to watch pelle and he did not disappoint
Been saying Bam and Tyler needed to be used to aquire a star for years now. I hate it that Pat has lost the ability to get rid of mid tier players when they have the most value, instead of waiting for shtbag seasons to occur like the one last year and this year for Bam. Now he has little value imo. Why would Milwaukee want him and Tyler now? 😢
Miami needs a real star like AE or Ja
Bam stinks right now? Bam been like that since he join the Heat I always knew bam was a roll player never a franchise player
Im getting fatigue from Bams trash play. Let's push to reset man. While our players have values. Also we hate on Spo but Ware hasnt been doing crap lately. 1 rebound?
Push for Ja and Giannis! If not let's sell everyone for first round picks man
Max BUM Adebayo… no more talk!
Total embarasment with Bam
Also Heat needs a new coach that knows how to use bigs!!!
I knew Tyler had an ego last year after Wiggs scored that 42…wiggs never got close to attempting more shots than Tyler after that game …lol
This game pmo fr, lack of effort was shown too much. No way we boutta pay our “star” almost 60 mil 🤦♂️
Miami heat= Miami dolphins mediocre
Tyler Herro should be traded for Ja. Cant have a player with big ego in the team. Pat should pulled the trigger.
Bam has been ass. Why tf did Pat give him the max?
I understand your frustration. However, this has nothing to do with bam effort. Bam constantly plays through injuries year after after. Being under size playing the five, while still having to switch from one through five, help guard the best player on the opposite team, help move our offense, grab 10 rebounds, and score round 20 ppg. Bam needs help , he plays over 70 games a season , cause he plays through injuries so of course he's going to go through stretches where he struggles. He's been playing under size his whole career as our primary big. Ware should be the answer but spo don't play ware alot of mins cause we are already slim on bigs. If one really gets hurt miami is screwed. So the smart thing to do is to maintenance one bigs minutes. Teams are asking about bam cause he's worth a max , he's basically an upgrade version of draymond green. A forward thats under 6"10 that can guard any position, and skilled in multiple areas. Draymond don't score close to what bam scores and draymond and still looked at as a max player. Also no max player have to guard all five positions, while playing great iso defense, and still have to give you 30ppg. They are only human and need help that's why role players are so important. Bam just need to be surrounded by shooters , a true point guard, and a true center so yall can really his potential. It's a reason bam is a 2× gold medal Olympics and all the great players in the league respect him
PAT RILEY. Definitely Pat Riley if you asked me who to blame
Trade Bam bro for Giannis?wtf
Bam is the only max player on this team and the worse starter on this team he has to go us fans are tired of all the Bam excuses from Heat media they paid Bam over Jimmy Butler that was dam right disrespectful then they wonder why Jimmy crashed out they need to go young trade all the dam starters.. and of course Herro is going to start he’s earned it he got better ever year from 6th man to all star saying pella should start over Herro is ridiculous and I’m not judging Herros play till he plays more games he’s only played 7 games now with that being said if they were to trade him along with bam and the rest of the starters I would understand
Watching the heat keep bam and herro like there shaq and kobe is the most demoralizing part of being a Heat fan in the last 5 years, its actually disgusting the money they receive to not even be super stars
6:52 I know we all made about spo starting herro, but basketball is also business and politics. So you know its messy but we gotta show herro off if we are hoping to trade him before the deadline or doing a sign and trade ,During the summer. this team has proven time and time again that miami don't need herro to play good basketball. In fact , miami played better with herro on the bench. Spo is not stupid, I know he see the pattern. I also realized that it's chess and not checkers and some time you gotta sacrifice some pawns to take down the queen. I don't care if herro starts and Norman comes off the bench. Thats just makes our bench better , Norman, jjj, ware,jovic , and hopefully kas off the bench is a nice rotation. Let pelle stay in the starting lineup cause he brings more defense to the starting lineup. With herro as a defensive liability, pelle would help to cover that with the rest of the starting unit. Everybody but herro plays great defense. While norm, and ware add a spark to the bench it could work. Herro just can't be the number one option, he has to play team ball and not hero ball
Bam gets a pass from me carrying the defense load his whole career Tyler never play defense but now we just have to accept that right ? Ok now who here really thought that the Miami heat was gonna win that game last night 🤔 they just got blown out by Indiana they want this bs roster to work so bad without jimmy but nothing a gwan
If I constantly gotta battle guys over 4 inch in height and has over 20 pounds of muscle then me and playing through back pain im not jumping for a lose ball , and if im just coming back from my bone almost poping out of my arm and the haven't even closed all the way , I damn sure not jumping on the floor for a lose ball , I don't know about yall but I want to see them get healthy and keep playing. not make a dumb decisions when they are already banged up and end up missing months . So let's be patient with our bigs . Spo knows it. Jovic haven't played in a season where he played over 50 games yet . still miami gave him a regular contract cause they see his potential , bam has been playing under size for years while being apart of every special run miami did since he's been in the starting lineup. If bam keeps this up he will be number one in heat history, in points, and games played. Ware has the most potential at center on our team but with no true back up center and with jovic dealing with the pressure of performing well , staying healthy, while his body and mind faces the most difficult part of his basketball life. Playing over 60 games in a season , ware minutes gets limited cause we can't afford him getting hurt. It's a sacrifice I can live with until we can find another solid back up center. It sucks, but we all knew this was coming , we seen it even when we was playing good . That our offense sometimes get stagnant cause we don't have a true point guard, and that we got out rebounded when bam , and ware was on the bench. Thats why we was worried when herro was coming back from surgery. Cause we didn't need a scorer, who can't facilitate and make a team better , or play good defense . Now miami got to many mouths to feed and no chef . I hope we trade herro, and Terry at the deadline
10:45 heat culture died with this new era of basketball. UD was the last player to embodie that in miami
Get rid of the whole team everyone must go pat and spo too Mickey sell the team no star will play for this team for pat and spo
Bambi so asss
Ware 8 points with half the minutes bam had says everything I need to know
I disagree. Although bam has struggled this game against the thunder has long ass chet holmgren defending the rim. Need ti adjust and find different ways to score. I think herro is more of a problem. Watch his tape last couple of games. He shows minimal wffort on defense and when other team goes on a run he starts falter. He also looks gassed everytime hes on the court. I think we should make a trade for more defenders ans caleb and cody martin come to mind. I would also trade herro fir ja thats just me
