U guys give spo way too much credit. How many offseasons does he need to figure out how to improve the teams offense? 😂 Spo aint gonna do anything special. He will stupidly start bam at the 5 once again and it may take Jimmy to cuss him out again to get ware in the lineup! 😂
Terry, Jimmy, Jovich, Bam & Ware! Herro to the bench! Plain and simple
Our offense is garbage, our pace is garbage, our rebounding is garbage! Jovich spaces the floor and has size for rebounding! He also pushes the pace and gets easy transition baskets! Ware helps with rebounding and interior defense! The size is also a plus on defense with niko at the 3! 2 lob threats with bam and ware and 3 excellent defenders in bam ware and jimmy! Those other lineups are not good for any of the heats issues!
The best season the Heat had record wise in the jimmy era was when tyler was coming off the bench!
When did folks become delusional thinking Rozier is a true point guard?! LaMelo was the Hornets true point guard, Terry only came off the bench in Boston. Also, Spo has NEVER needed a true point guard.
Bam had a true point guard, Lowry, didn’t matter. Lowry only mattered when Jimmy & Bam missed most the season.
Whatever backcourt they put out, is going to be straight bad defensively. I’d lean into the back court jacking 3s, and Ware protecting the rim defensively and playing above the rim offensively… therefore:
Ware, Bam, Jimmy, Duncan, Herro is the only lineup that gives them a chance to have a high ceiling.
Rozier, Duncan, Jimmy, Niko, Bam doesn’t give you a high ceiling. It gives you a better floor, but I’m sick of the ceiling being the 8th seed
Herro/Jimmy/Jovic/Bam/Ware
Terry/Duncan/Jaquez/HH/Love
Herro/HH/Jimmy/Jovic/Bam
Terry/Duncan/Jaquez/Love/KW
Terry/Herro/Jimmy/Bam/Ware
Jrich/Duncan/Jaquez/Jovic/TB
These are the other rotations im interested in seeing if they would work.
