i feel like I read 4 more weeks.. but might be wrong. Optimistically, I think we are fine not rushing him back if we continue to win majority of these games. And it gives Yurt more burn
that 1st or 2nd game of the streak where he missed like 4 putbacks on one possession and ended with 10 boards >>>>
feels like they bounce back and play well tomorrow, but still obv likely wont be enough with the holes thought Dedmon was donezo when he went down. If he can get back to form when he comes back let Bam rest as long as he needs. Yurt is fine need to get lucky over this month stretch with injuries and wins as guys start coming back. Would shape up nicely going into the ASB
i'm irrationally watching this adolescent floor crew kid do a terrible job and needing help from the ref after Jimmy turned his ankle thanks GS
The NBA better suspend that ref because that was some bullshit kicking Lowry out for passing the ball to the ref smh
kind of a dick move to throw a blindside screen with 1 minute left in a game that is out of reach, but I still agree with you. No reason for Herro to be a dick there.
anyway you slice it when your team has a skeleton squad with a handful of covid replacement playing 20+ mins a game, walk back to the bench.
No way we can keep this type of shooting going on the second but good god that was an amazing shooting display in the first half
Ah I forgot he was a second round pick that didn’t make the team. Was listening to the suns broadcast and they were talking about all the undrafted players on the heat and how even before the replacement players came into play Miami had the most undrafted players on the roster and that was just crazy to me
nice to have Dedmon back really thought he was done for season when the injury occurred. Now we just need to get Jimmy some tussin so he doesn't have to miss a week of games with every injury
Dedmon was playing well too. I would trust him over a rookie as the season goes on and into the postseason as great as Yurt has been playing
I like what Yurt doing but unless we are playing a big team like the Cavs that kill us on the board I'd rather have Dedmon bec defensively Yurt still a big liability. Since it appears that covid gave Spo an excuse to finally take Dunc out of the starting line up, I don't even want to imagine the defense of Duncan, Tyler and Yurt all on the floor together.
also I know he won't win any awards for it but good gracious at the coaching job Spo is doing this year. The only thing better than this year has to be the second half of the season 30-11 run. The guy just gets more out of players. Only person that was arguably better after leaving Spo to go somewhere else was Bron.
Think that was just a result of Lebron continuing to improve when a lot of players would have been content with already being the best in the world. He's obviously a different breed.
Yea, Spo has been killing it. We're 11 games over .500 and 2 games from 1st place in the East without Jimmy and Bam and then others at times due to injury or covid
I know he opens up the offense for us when he's in and starts, but I love the idea of Duncan off the bench. Give me Strus instead who can play defense and hit the 3. I also like Kyle and Herro on the floor together. Put Duncan in when the other team has been running for a bit or he's going against their bench players seems ideal to me. But I imagine he'll be back in the starting line up after all-star break
I hope not even though they suck defensively together seems like he plays better with Herro because its another shooter on the floor with him to pull defenders off him and get him open looks. If you think about it even when we were doing dho with him and Bam all game. Dunc was always taking difficult shots coming off the bench facing other teams 6/7/8 man with another outside shooter is atleast making him playable again and I'm sure Spo sees that aswell.
Agreed! Herro is a shooter and he's a threat to drive to the basket, so it should help tho defense ends up taking a hit. I think a lineup of those two with Jimmy, Bam and PJ works well enough
