The Miami Heat played without Bam Adebayo, Tyler Herro and Haywood Highsmith again — and didn’t have Josh Richardson either. But they should have had enough to beat the Bulls. Instead they got off to a 33-8 deficit, and couldn’t climb all the way back. Ethan and Greg discuss the disappointing point-of-attack defense, Jimmy Butler’s blase performance, Jaime Jaquez’s continued growth and more.

Exactly why we need a POA defender like Caruso/Smart
Multiple injuries to starters and a slow start to the season. Sounds like every year. Most of the time this team is unwatchable….
Its an overhaul thats needed.
Tyler,jrich, dru for colin sexton, 2 low value 1sts(2025 min, 2027 top 10 pro utah) and tht.
Tht goes to wizards
Kyle lowry, caleb, 2026 1st (top 10 pro)
Dinwiddie to wizards, dfs to heat
Duncan and jovic with 2024 2027 1st to wizards for kuzma, tyus and either shamet or delon wright
Jjj was minus 17….again. check his plus minus on the season and stop talking about him like he is our next d wade. He is a solid pick bit extremely over valued. We are fighting for the 7th seed right now not the first. Saying Tyler isn't as good as a starter as Duncan is ridiculous. Had he not left after 6 minutes he is averaging 25 a game. As it is he is a shade under 23. Shooting better than Jimmy, Duncan and jjj
Today with Ethan @@GregSylvander says "of course Tyler has to start right way. What are we doing here?" Yesterday with Alex, @@GregSylvander "Tyler needs to come off the bench. We shouldn't sit Duncan." Smh
