1. Wiggins & Bam going to shoot this team right back into the Play-In… FG% in the 30s…. SMDH

2. Bam's making it real hard to stick up for him with each mid game after another

3. Pity you guys, willing to watch this tomorrow.

4. No ceiling defense is hilarious

5. It was great to see our Captain lead this team tonight. His intangibles were on full display. His play speaks for itself. There's no need for excuses tonight.

6. Bam was out played by Naz Reid, Rudy, and Randle….SMH… CAPTAIN MAX.

7. So, Greg… What you are saying-Bam is a role-player.

8. Bam is the damn ceiling. Can’t get better with him being your max player/captain and every single one of us knows it.

   Jimmy Butler is my favorite player and was before he went to Miami. I have no problem saying the Heat should have moved him before last season began…and I WAS saying that because he was no longer a max player/first option.

   Bam is playing his worst basketball, it’s a year + sample size, and he isn’t even on his max yet.

   The crazy thing is, I don’t think his trade value has dropped much, and it’s WAY higher than his on-court value. The Heat couldn’t ask for a better scenario to trade him, and couldn’t ask for a more crippling scenario to keep him.

   Trade Bam to go young, draft Kingston Flemings. He is perfect for our style.

9. You expect Ant to lead their offense. But the Heat let Naz go off, which cost them in this game.

10. Inflation is driving me crazy. Something needs to be done about this.

    Big Mac—$5.54
    Levi's 501 jeans—$50
    Movie tickets—$17

    12 points and 9 rebounds—$166 million!

11. Bam needs to take a week off and regroup

12. Maybe trading Bam is the solution, him along with Herro, Powell and Wiggins can net them a huge quantity of draft assets, particularly if they go get the ones from this draft class. If they get a top 5 pick, someone like Caleb Wilson can be your number one option, then maybe go after players that brings size, length and versatility like Yessoufou, Carr or Sarr. If they want someone from under the radar that could be a diamond in the rough, then maybe Neoklis could be the one for them.

13. I’m really curious. How does Ware go from a stretch where he puts up 22 & 12, 24 & 14, 28 & 19, to now his role in the offense has been reduced? Now tonight was a tough matchup for him I get it. I understand the 3 ball hasn’t been falling the last two games, but he was getting more paint touches during that good stretch. Why are they making him stand under the rim now? This is the second time this has happened this year. He plays good for a nice stretch, then he’s back to only getting 7 shots at the most. I feel like they have him sacrificing for Bam.

14. The heat got cool off by the MIN

15. Ethan really needs to host the episodes when bam doesn’t play well (which is the norm this season), bc Greg is incapable of honestly talking about these games.

16. Ant dropped 33 on Davion and that back court

17. Bam has no ceiling!

18. What kills me about the bam stans Is the fact when Bam plays above average they puff their chest out and start taking victory laps then when he doesn’t play up to their standards for him they start talking about his intangibles and what other players need to do. Bam has the easiest job in the NBA , local media doesn’t hold him to any real standards, the franchise is in love with his intangibles blinding them from the issues he causes. These same folks were calling him “No Ceiling” and now it’s excuse after excuse after excuse

19. The Miami Heat players are soft and crumble. Bam as a max player is a joke. Pat Riley will do absolutely nothing about it of course. The Heat “still need to see what they have”. Clowns.

20. Adebayo would be ok at 25 mill per year. Gets accolades for his defense, well inept Rudy cooked him the entire game, same as bones. And his offense was a joke. What I saw shouldn’t cost more than 25 mill
