    Welp, that gotta nasty in a hurry after a pretty tight game through 3 quarters. I could say 2nd night of a back-to-back on the road but that comes across as a bit hollow. Tonight felt like “Bam/Herro & JAGs” which doesn’t feel great.

    * Cain showed some great hops even if his 3-ball was a bit rough to watch
    * I liked the Jovic minutes.
    * T-Wolves fans are laughing now, but wait when we steal their young star away from them (Naz Reid) we’ll see who’s laughing

    Season doesn’t get any easier on Monday going to Milwaukee. We’ll see.

    that was certainly a performance…

    Down 5 rotation players in game 3 is frustrating

    Forced to play zone which eventually gets beat. Happens everytime we r undermanned

  4. SoCalHeatFan2020

    Trade everybody and build around Swider.

  5. GhostifiedMark

    Ngl them where is Jimmy chants were funny

  6. surgeyou123

    As close to a scheduled loss as it gets with the players out on a road B2B. Onto Milwaukee. We better see JIMVP.

    Lowry got to go. You can’t be playing 30+ minutes and score 3 points.

  7. lomasturbasmeng

    Best part of the night was spo and ant dapping uo just for us to never land him

  8. Own-Marsupial-4448

    Ok I know it’s Halloween and it’s a scary start but I think it’s just jitters for now!! But need to shape up!!

  9. SoFarSoGood-WM

    it was 79-82 at one point. Then it was 80-102….

    just a complete and total meltdown on both ends of the floor. I like seeing the young guys, but these lineups are genuinely embarrassing.

  10. TRG_ATC

    If only we had an elite scorer that wanted to play for us…

  11. Own-Marsupial-4448

    Tyler needs to calm down with the shot selection and Bam needs to shoot more!! Damn!!

  12. letsgoheat3

    With Jimmy coasting until the playoffs offense is going to be a struggle all season.

  13. DIFTS24

    Jovic and Jaime both positive +/- in a blowout loss. Def should’ve played more minutes. I know Spo is just throwing shit at the wall at this point but those two need more minutes

  14. BucketHerro

    Herro scoring 28 and being the highest scorer against the Celtics. “We dont care”

    ​

    Herro having an off night against the Wolves on a back-to-back? “MAXEY BETTER”

  15. rice-guardian

    The moment Spo took Jovic and JJJ out was the start of the downfall of the lead.

  16. i never wanna see a small lineup ever again. idk y the fk we went small against the biggest team in the league

  17. RansomGoddard

    Scheduled loss but that fourth quarter was completely unacceptable.

  18. Survivor_for_me

    Hard to be confident in this team after the first 3 games

  19. faatgay

    One day this team will have a fully fit lineup. Probably not actually but I wish it happened.

  20. Sorryunowin

    Goran came off the bench his last two season in Miami at 31 and 32 years old. Kyle is 37 and still starting!

  21. SoCalHeatFan2020

    On a scale of 1-10 what would you give Tyler’s play?

  22. Dolphhins

    Shit ass game on a road back to back with a depleted roster. Jovic looked nice tho

  23. Mattm334

    Not sure why anyone expected any different. Without Jimmy this team is a lottery team and even with him I’m not sure we are even Top 15 in talent. We just don’t have enough and didn’t have enough last year and the year before that. We ask to much of players that arent capable enough.

  24. Realistic_Height_102

    WE ARE COOKED
    WE ARE NOT SEEING THE FINALS
    WE ARE BARELY MAKING THE PLAY IN
    WE ARE IN SHAMBLES
    THIS IS DISGUSTING NASTY 4TH QUARTER WORK

  25. TheRatchetTrombone

    This was a b2b and the fatigue showed. Did not help that Jimmy decided to fuck around after doing cardio last night and unnecessarily sit out. Spo back at it with leaving bench lineups in too long and not putting in players like JJJ and Jovic to provide relief at times.

    It’s only three games in but, adding the above and injuries, and the punk ass schedule so far, leaves the results tonight. However, we are three games in, slowly getting cohesion, which may be frustratingly slow, but it will pick up. Just need to stay the course, get healthy, and just for Spolestra and Jimmy to tighten up. Bam and Herro will be fine also. Fatigue and adjusting to being higher usage guys will even out with time. They are improving and getting better. Onto the Bucks and to fuck them up.

  26. SpotLightGuy

    Now watch we come out and bring all the smoke to Milwaukee. We’ve all seen this movie before.

    As far as tonight – growing pains. Started and played hella young players. Gonna take time and getting healthy to see the real us.

  27. OhMyItzBam_Herro305

    Jovic played the full game, it would’ve been close. Spo has a vendetta against him maybe? Only reason Spo not to play him alot, is his defense his playmaking scoring, rebounding makes up for it tho.

    Sure tonight we’re undermanned, but Spo is to blame for this. Dru Smith sold us hard tonight, and we couldn’t play d.

    Only 3 games tho we chilling.

  28. AncientAnt9225

    Jovic did well one of rares in plus but Heat are misusing him playing him on PF . I know Heat are undersized but he shouldn’t be one guarding KAT/Gobert… Hes best as SG/SF his natural position

  29. Dynamical164

    I know I’ll get downvoted for this, but we very much should at the very least probe for Harden. I really don’t give a shit about him not being “Heat Culture” when we’re trotting out a 40yo Lowry that only gets off his ass when half our team is out. He averaged 20/10 literally last season and can score at all 3 levels, something this team is desperately lacking. He can collapse all he wants in the playoffs, Jimmy can carry the load then.

  30. Kuni_Nino

    This is a game where our legs gave out. That’s kinda it. There’s really nothing I can take from this game

  31. MostlyPurple

    Genuine question – outside of curiosity, what is my
    motivation for watching this team during the regular season?

    They don’t care about it so why should we care about it.

  32. EntrepreneurSweet846

    Y’all hating Lowry, but for me the Miami heat had already been paid the dividends they gave to him, training/leading a pack of undrafted (strus, gabe, etc) and now still mentoring a young team … for me the management is at fault for always relying to this set-up

  33. MaplePennybags69

    Early B2Bs on the road are tough tbf 🤷‍♂️

  34. Ionlyeatmustard

    It would be truly delusional to imagine a run like last year with this squad. That game was downright unwatchable and was flipping around for other things to watch. This is going to be rough year.

  35. treaserino

    I’m going to dedicate my life to hating on Kyle Lowry

  36. poetic-thong

    seems like herro wants to be trae young now since he thinks it will get him more instagram thots and espn coverage. plz herro be yourself. u are good enough, no need to chuck like trae and slack on defense. plz dont be trae young hes horrible. i knew they were going to get blown out i just didnt think they would compete most of the game, bam was gassed. tbh shouldve played orlando robinson earlier he was fresh, bam and bryant looked weak and tired from the back to back and traveling.

  37. Is Jimmy getting a rest game after only 2 games for me
