The Miami Heat nearly pulled off the comeback but Jimmy Butler whiffed a layup and Nikola Jokic and the Nuggets held onto the win. Is this a bad loss for the Heat, or one chalked up to injuries and Jokic’s dominance?
Wes Goldberg and David Ramil break down the loss, Bam Adebayo’s defense on Jokic and more before discussing the news that the Heat could explore signing Serge Ibaka.

Just stop with the excuse this is a bad team rebuild this team.
Not enough G league players on the team
Not enough fire power tonight. Always a lengthy injury report for the heat.
Has the game pass Riley by
Jimmy misses too many shots close to the basket 🤦🏽♂️
Sign John wall
Stanley Johnson for sure 🙌
Man.. That is not serbian GIBANICA! 😂
Another big man and they win this game Richaun Holmes would really help Bam with them big boys like Jok
Jokic is my least favorite superstar people act like theirs never been a player like him when his game is like a copy paste of CP3 except jokic is 7’0” tall and weighs 300 pounds, he even whines to the refs all game like CP3, he plays no defense like CP3. He’s a great player but I just don’t care for him
Ref is obviously helping us to be honest but we still lost…🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Jokic is a Great player…. But he's a one way player…. Embiid and Giannis are Great player's Overall…. Offense and Defense
Miami needed this win. Bam has to be able to play and defend better against the Joker, I know it's easier said than done, but I believe he can do it 🔥💯
Stanley Johnson over Ibaka… I agree
Get Stanley Johnson or Khem Birch and Will Barton or Russell Westbrook right now!!! Move heat nation!!!!👏👏👏👏👏
Jokic is awesome man. Need Jimmy with no Aaron Gordon to just dominate the paint.
This is frustrating watching that game and never seen anybody attack jokic making work defensively, like all the actions always away from them slaves helps him save his energy for the offense
We need some big bodies out there!
Greek is better than frenches big boy
We need a power forward badly
When is Dipo and Jovic coming back?
Joker is Baman's nemesis. Too big, too long and too skilled. Baman had no Robin. But a good game with the usual MH bad shooting. So what else is new?
Jok is controlling game as no one ever did,and I really understand why every team struggling so much by guarding Jok,it's simply unreal,him is slow,him is not athletic,him isn't jumping high,but the way how him manipulate the game,it's unreal, there is nothing what teams can do against Jok,you double him,you are getting opened 3pt shot,you play one on one,him will put you under basket and score on your head,I am hugge Denver fan,this season Jok shooting percentage was only once under 50%,him doesn't give you a chance to hope that him will have bad shooting day,him is also on 38.6 3pt percentage,you can't just leave him on 3pt shooting line,it's just impossible to guard someone like that.
Miami heat roster is the size of a division 2 basketball team roster.
That was a break the controller moment for sure 🙄. I wanted to see Bam go at Joka more. He got a foul call on one possession. Bam should have been the focus also when he sat. Max with another tough night, it feels like he is losing confidence in his shot.
We aren’t good enough to be Denver way to small and lack of talent
shoutout to wes and david 2 knowledgeable brothers
Wes. Please with the excuses that Spoelstra could not game plan for the Nuggets. They are a vastly better team – game plan or not. The Nuggets pretty much own the Heat. The Heat hung in there but have an inferior roster.
The Nuggets beat the Heat in Denver and you had your whole team
Jokic is not an "MVP type" of player. He is THE B2B about to be 2B MVP
4:43 "I knew the Heat we're going to lose this game in THE FIRST HALF"
BRO, for real???!!!
This soft NBA giving Jokic a Technical Foul. 😠😫 Cmon man… The disrespect on Jokic is ridiculous 😢
They need to put another solid big next to BAM,It's only gonna wear him out trying to defend centers like this,If we run into Philly then BAM is gonna have his hands full with embiid
We need to rebuild imho Heat are too old vs young teams with high IQ and athleticism.
Dude talking like me got blown out. Wes drives Me crazy sometimes
