Should Nikola Jovic Be In The Miami Heat Rotation Full Time? Miami Heat Rumors

Does this man right here Nico yovic need to get more of a spotlight and a spot in the heat rotation in the second half of the season I am Nick rolloff of the heat report make sure you are subscribed to the channel because today we are going

To talk about yic what he can bring to the table and if he should continue to get minutes in this heat line line up in heat rotation as the Heat make their post Allstar break push to the NBA postseason he obviously was a very large Catalyst in the Miami Heat defeating the

Milwaukee Bucks just a couple days ago on the road by 26 points he did not have as good as a game against Philly on Wednesday but the heat pick up two big wins on the road to close out their stretch of games before the All-Star break and allow them to go into the

Break with high morale rid a two game win streak and they are five games above 500 yic can bring a lot of good things from to the table and I do want to talk about how he could unlock a different version of this Heat team do want to say

Though it is a little unfortunate that he did not have a good game against Philadelphia on Wednesday night he was dealing with foul trouble a lot in this ball game and then to close the game SPO went with a lineup of hakz hero um Duncan uh excuse me I’m spacing Haywood

Heist smth and then uh to close out that lineup with hawz so I was based on that one fellas but that fiveman lineup played most of the fourth quarter and yic was really dealing with foul trouble for most of that game which really prohibited him to get really any rhythm

But we saw what he can bring to the table against the Milwaukee Bucks because that game on Tuesday evening was nothing short of spectacular February 13th will be a day that goes down in infamy as the Nia yic game where he had 24 points seven rebounds three assists

On eight of 13 shooting and shot five of eight from three he showcased the ability to hit shots from Deep to be able to get out in transition to be a front Court wall alongside bam atab bio defensively to where they can play a two big lineup so when they play a bucks

They play a Boston where they run two bigs at one time whether it be porzingis and Horford or whether it be Lopez and Giannis you can put out yic alongside love or bam and have no issues defensively no issues on the glass and no issues when it comes to offensive

Spacing I think that is the biggest key when it comes to yic and how he brings to the table because he has just been downright terrific when he gets some minutes and is able to really showcase what he can do I do want to send Nia yic

Some love and if you want to show your appre appreciation for yic spam your fives down in the comment section I know he watches these videos CU I’ve been told that some Heat players watch our videos so if you want to know and want yic to know that you have his back and

Know that he should be in the rotation spam those fives down below yic can just do a lot of good things for the Miami Heat that I think really elevates the ceiling of this ball club and one thing we’ve always mentioned in terms of Miami and what

Their biggest need is is a power forward that can space the floor next to Bam out a bio in the front Court too often Eric spoler goes small with heith with Caleb Martin with PJ Tucker and it really just does not give them a Advantage when they

Play teams that have a lot of size it gives them positional versatility but it doesn’t give them what they truly need in terms of size in defense and rebounding on the glass yovic can bring that to the table because he’s 610 he’s 611 he could handle the rock he can do

So many nice things and the thing that really just excites me is his confidence even after not playing for seven of 10 games coming into that Milwaukee game even early on in the game against Philadelphia he still started off a little rough with a pair of turnovers

And a miss three with the next time he got an open look it was no hesitation he catches he shoots and he knocked it home I just like what I’ve seen I like the confidence and I think Jimmy Butler has had a large influence on the mental head

Space of nicoa yovic and it has done Justice for his ability to grow even though he has not played every single night there’s some reasons why I like yic and believe that he should get more PT in this heat lineup and will we’ll get to that in a second but I got to

Show some love to our sponsor which is prize picks the number one daily fantasy sports app in platform on the market and you can play very easily by just picking two to six player stat projections picking more than or less than on those totals and you could win up to 25 times

Your money yes you heard that correctly my picks for last night’s game did not pan out unfortunately I went with yic more than points rebounds assists it didn’t work but Duncan and Derek white hit if I did a flex play I would have won because I just needed to go two out

Of three but I did a power play because I only go power plays and I lost but luckily I got that first deposit match from prize picks which was $100 when I went to prize.com clns and use code clns so you could take advantage of that too

That link is in the description and the comment section of today’s video take advantage prix.com clns all right let’s go the yich more in depth here because his ability to space the floor is so key and I wanted to point out something specifically that we didn’t see much against Philadelphia on

Wednesday night but we did see against Milwaukee in that Bucks win on Tuesday because they would often go a simple action on one side of the floor whether it be a bam at a bio post up at the high post or mid post and he would have the

Whole side of the floor to work whether it be left or right or run a simple pick and roll with hero Duncan and Bam which would just give them so much space to work with why does it give them space well it’s because the defense knows it

Cannot sag off the guys on the other side of the court whether it be nicoa yic Caleb Martin and Duncan Robinson or Tyler herro like when you have three guys that can shoot on that side of the floor defenses can’t help off of them which allows them on the other side to

Go to work and play their action but but if they do sag off which they did early in that game against the Heat when I’m talking about the Bucks game yic made him pay three triples in the first quarter The Scouting Report in the first part of that game was clearly let nicoa

Yic shoot the ball and don’t let hero and Bam beat us will yovic beat them by knocking down three first quarter triples and he had five for the game and I still think that ability plays next to Bam and Jimmy because Jimmy is not the best spatial partner alongside bam he’s

Shooting 45% from three but he doesn’t shoot him enough at a high volume to really threaten defenses but if you add yic into that lineup you get the height you get the spacing I think it just adds a little bit more to this heat lineup it also brings ball handling to Miami

Because he is not afraid to handle the rock facilitate and be the playmaker for the Miami Heat and the part that I just love so much and I say this all the time when I talk about Nicole is his ability to get defensive rebounds

And then just push the pace I find it so intriguing and find it so impactful when a player when a guy can get a rebound and just go and threaten the defense and what yovic can do is use his long strides to Euro Step to the rim

For a layup or draw crowd inside and kick out he’s got a very high IQ he knows what to do with the ball in a hands he comes from a point guard mentality even at 610 611 and he can really just distribute the ball in that

Space and even in the half court which just makes him so so impactful for the Miami Heat two more things that he brings to the table that I want to talk about but first be heard should Nia yovic be in the Miami Heat rotation permanently going forward you believe he

Should type y for yes if you think he still is not ready and he should still be on the bench when fully healthy type your ends another reason is extra size for bam at a bio and I thought this one was one of the more underrated reasons on

Why I think yovic should play more when bam is the lone big man he is burdened with being the lone guy to protect the paint and protect the rim inside but when you have yovic I’m not saying nicovic is going to protect the rim at

An elite level that’s not his game he is 610 and can contest some shots better than Caleb Martin Haywood heith inside but allowing another guy to be there with length inside the paint allows bam to play more Rome and Rover defensively we saw a couple times bam get Steals and

There was even a point in the game against Philadelphia on Wednesday where they went to a two3 Zone and Bam was playing on the wing rather than inside a 69 athlete with long arms like adabo who is the best defender in the world being allowed to play more of a

Roaming Rover switching disruptive role rather than be limited to guarding the opposing Center and picking rolls and rim protection allows a more Dynamic defense for Miami which has by the way been the best in the NBA in February in defensive rating just allows the heat to

Do a lot of different things get in out and transition more and really Domin opponents the last thing that Nico yic brings and arguably the best part his high IQ basketball Eric sposta values a lot of different things one of them being smart basketball players the other being positional versatility and just

Not being someone who has to do one specific thing yic might be one of the smartest basketball mins on this team and he’s only 20 21 years old I’m being dead serious even after not playing a severe amount of minutes over the past year and a half as he is in his second

Year you could just tell he knows what to do it’s the subtle things the little nuances I go back to a play on Tuesday against the Milwaukee Bucks where it was a two-on-one break with him and haimi hakz Jr and usually when you go two-on-one you space the floor because

It really puts the defensive player in a rough spot right what did yic do he actually went down closer he created less space in between the two why did he do that because it makes the defender have to really choose between one of the two if you have more space the guy can

Actually play more in the middle and just hope you screw up but when you go to that really close level you force them and the defender to pick one and when he made the slight nudge towards yovic bringing the ball up well was a simple little shovel pass to hakz for an

Easy layup and the defender because of hakz being so close was unable to rotate over and contest the layup it’s the little things for Nia yic that is so impactful and even though he didn’t really do much against the Philadelphia 76ers in the Wednesday win I still think

That he should be in this heat rotation moving forward the should he start maybe that’s a different conversation for a different day but I am willing to put my stamp on him needing to be in this heat rotation and in this heat lineup raises the ceiling of this team you live with

The defensive LS at time but you get so much more on the glass and in the offensive side of the ball game that is going to do it for today’s video appreciate y’all tuning in if you are here for the entirety of the video you obviously like what I bring to the table
