Jimmy just lost a family member maybe he has lost the heart for it this season
Right now we are looking at playing the sixers in the play in, probably will lose the 7 & 8 game, end up with the 8th seed best case scenario thats if we dont lose the second game and get eliminated all together. Even if we secure the 8th seed we would face boston, if we get lucky and obtain the 7th seed by a miracle, we would still have a possibility to face the knicks who are exhausted but very hungry. This is a very bad position to be in. Nevertheless, if we flame out because Jimmy does not show up in the post season, it might be time to blow it up. Very unfortunate, but jimmy would have to go
Naveen is the best guy now on 5Reasons… he speaks nothing but facts & evaluates everyone fairly… except poor old Patty.
Season wasted. Pat cant retire unless its without rings. Sorry not sorry, Butler. It was his idea to waste years and $$$ on Kyle Lowry. Heat need to rebuild or get another whale Next to Jimmy. This team aint it.
I wish Caleb would go away. His game is between a bench player and starter and so Spo would start him at center other absurd positions.
Just rewatched the game… starting until is solid… Bam, Jovic, Jimmy, Caleb, Tyler… they’d be great if Jimmy & Bam show up….Rozier will be most helpful off the bench
Lastly, that was a dirty play by Bam on DJJ. Disappointed in that guy on multiple levels
Naveen is on the money. I also hate forcing myself to watch a mediocre pathetic basketball team. Please get this over with!
Jimmy gave up on this season as soon as Dame got traded to the Bucks. Also Bam is not the Player to build around , but Pat is stuck in the 90's
so there is no chance trading Him.
Can we has fans be honest here … it’s time to trade Jimmy Butler please don’t bring this core or Jimmy & Bam for another season it would be torture
I just have to think that jimmy isn’t ok mentally im sure whosever unfortunate passing in his family is still bothering him mentally we all go through that the difference is he has to perform at an all star level in front of millions I hope he is ok im not sure but I hope im wrong
It's sad and weird to say this But this team has looked the best when we had a healthy Duncan starting, so if he doesn't come back and look like he did pre back injury then we are screwed.
Jimmy doesn't look like he likes playing with tyler.
Blow the big 3 up! Our stars were outplayed
Well, these are the most important games of the year so far. They are showing us who they are. I chose to believe them rather than think of yesteryear accomplishments.
Naveen is a coward.
I hate the Kyrie slander about off the court crap. Yt people always got something to say about how original people act off the court. Stfu about off court crap, he has never done anything wrong off the court but speak the truth.
Play off jimmy died in round 2 of the play offs last year
Y’all been lying to yourself all season! We suck and will never win. Tyler and Bam aren’t franchise players.
The bottom line is we are just not that good. Jimmy needs to be given another opportunity to win someplace else. Right now he is not the guy. I love Jimmy but he needs fresh air. The team needs fresh air from a new rebuild. Good show guys.
Naveen has some fairly objective analysis. I'm a fan. I'm hoping it lasts.
I don't know if y'all have talked about this, but has there been a team this year or any other year that's been blocked at the rim more than Miami has this season? I think that speaks so much to their lack of offensive ability. Not enough athleticism. Not enough strength. Not enough size. And the folks with athletic ability do not use it.
I think Jimmy lost the fight when Duncan went down even with Tyler coming back ,Tyler demands the ball too much ,l think Trying to keep the team above 500 earlier,when Tyler and Bam were out , it was Jimmy ,Duncan and Kevin Love and the rookies and mediocre players took a toll after the short off season he had,and the franchise not doing anything substantial,even the Rosier trade,why didn't they go after Murray from Atlanta,noticed him and Jimmy were pretty tight before the Atlanta game ,heck even TJ McConnell, really watch the games sometimes,all the banging with the bigs Jimmy is doing who have how many pounds on him
Naveen was on point with all of his takes. I’m at the point that if the Heat make a run great but they haven’t shown they can defeat who ever comes out of the West. Most likely we’re a 1st or 2nd round exit, and that’s okay I’m looking forward to having more free time during the playoffs.
Far be it from me to tell Spo what to do…But Jimmy/Bam need to rest so we can hve them healthy/rested for long playin/playoff run
