Can the Miami Heat Fix Their 3-Point Shooting Problems, & Could They Explore Trading Jimmy Butler?



The Miami Heat lost their eighth game this season in which they made single-digit 3-point shots. Is there anything they can do to jolt their perimeter shooting, or is it a lost cause?

Wes Goldberg and David Ramil break down the Heat’s loss to the Brooklyn Nets, reasons for the 3-point shooting woes and why they need more from Jimmy Butler.

  1. Brooklyn have better role players than the heat. Need guys back from injury after all star break to avoid play in

  2. Heat doesn’t have a bench like we did last year. We didn’t size up after losing PJ. We don’t have enough talent besides 4 guys. 3-4 undrafted is cool but when you have 9-10 guys its a problem. I just hope in the offseason they get rid of guys and build around the 3 guys and maybe keep Dipo but everyone have to go

  3. i was at the game and from the beginning shootaround jimmy did not seem interested at all

  4. Omg guys it’s happening, K Love is asking for a buyout, get Riley on the phone! We need him and Stanley Johnson! ASAP! 🚨🚨🚨

  5. I thought everyone was blaming Lowry now he's not playing due to injury and the heat still suck and getting their ass kicked. I want to hear the excuses now 😆

  6. True,Buttler hasn't stepped up,and not playing his game. If he keeps up this bad play he should be traded. We could get 3,1st round picks,and a player. The Heat should do this anyway,trade Buttler,Lowry,Duncan,Depo and Yurts,and free up 100 million,and rebuild,with 3 max players,and 3,1st round picks,and with Haslum retiring the Heat can rebuild,and Riley should retire too.

  7. They have to trade Jimmy in the off season. His knees are getting worse and his Contract will become dead weight as he declines.

  8. I really thought the Heat would be more active at the trade deadline this year. Maybe the offseason is a better time to look for some high impact personnel moves?

  9. We don't have enough! We know it and so does everyone else. Until we get Dipo , Yurt and Lowry back our offense will be trash.

  10. Me personally I don’t think NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THIS TEAM

    outside the fact they running around on defense & The TEAM INJURED

    Don’t worry SPO WILL CHANGE EVERYTHING

    Lol

    I’m just glad they getting HEALTHIER

    HERRO BACK
    DUCAN BACK
    YURTSZN BACK AFTER ALLSTAR
    OLA BACK AFTER ALLSTAR
    BUYOUT ADDITIONS COMING

    & let’s be honest

    Fans crying over the nets win but

    The nets Already know they ain’t doing nothing they just tryna build CHEMISTRY

    For next year

    So no sweat

  11. Jimmy's just interested in collecting his paycheck… You can look at them you could tell the body language fading athleticism bad body language and is still bothers me that last year after we beat the 76ers Jimmy was still talking about how he wishes she was on the 76ers team… It was just embarrassing as a heat fan just really insulted the heat organization and showed he has no respect for sleepy Pat

  12. I've been telling you guys for months now the Heat needs to trade Jimmy in the summer while he still have value. He has been playing like garbage more frequently and is often injured. He's on a rapid decline and we can see it right before our eyes. He's been moving too slow and playing passive defense (or lack thereof). Trade Jimmy for a young star like anfernee simons or OG Anunoby then build around Tyler and Bam and surround the team with knockdown 3 pt. shooters! Spo also needs to dump that zone defense coz it's destroying Heat player coz it's so taxing to the health of these Heat players, it takes too much effort to switch, rotate, and cover a specific area. Spo needs to replace Pat in the fron office and let CQ coach this team. Pat needs to retire coz he's doing nothing to improve this team!

  13. We should get whatever we can for Butler in the offseason.
    Imagine 4 more years of this or worse if he stays.

  14. Someone tell me why Max is taking all these shots in crunch time for the last two games. Did he become the star of the team and I somehow missed it🤔

  15. This team has no confidence in their 3 point shots u can tell in their attempts.. unreal. One of the best last year and now pure garbage!!

  16. Pat Riley should look also for Khem Birch and Justine Holiday!!! They are also in the buy out market now!!!

  17. Pat Riley should look also for Khem Birch and Justine Holiday!!! They are also in the buy out market now!!!

  18. After the All-Star Break… Miami is going 23-0…. lmao! Just kidding. On Jimmy: He's beat up. His game is physical. Getting to the rim is taxing on the body. I agree that tonight he looked disengaged, and to let Bridges go off like that without a response, when you get challenged like that shouldn't your pride feel bruised? Shouldn't that shake up your competitive spirit? For some reason, it wasn't enough for Jimmy. Therefore, I believe Jimmy is hurt. He needs this break. I don't want to think that he's not trying or cruising through the season. I don't like to compare but I can't remember DWade ever taking games off. He was the man. The team went as he went and DWade gave it all (I'm sure there are games he couldn't get it going but the effort was there. Thinking specifically of 08-09 pre Big 3 era DWade when he played with Shawn Marion and Jermain O'neal and Jemario Moon etc) I consider Jimmy our main man but he is clearly limping to the break. Kyle is nonexistent. Tyler is hurt. Victor gives you a string of 3-4 games then is out for weeks. No Yurt yet this season. 3's are not falling. No back up Big that can hold the line while Bam is off the floor. There is no consistency on this team. It is exhausting. Jimmy has to be exhausted. Someone needs to stand up and say "I'm taking the keys and driving us either to success or into the ground." Who wants that responsibility? The team is 7th ya'll. 7th. They need to come out of the Break firing on all cylinders to put themselves in a better position for ther playoff run and right now, the way they are constructed, it isn't cutting it. I'm tired of hearing about buyout candidates and so on. Talk to me when the front office actually does something. I hate speculation. This team is disappointing. They're not even fun to watch. Just look miserable.

  19. Weve failed to get Jimmy help. Jimmy has carried this team on long playoff runs for years its tough

  20. Lethargic….. One and only word for heat COACHING STAFF AND FRONT OFFICE. These dollar store lineups. 6'4 guys playing pf. Benched there only tru 3pt shooter. If duncan cant play d then spo cant coach. Spo is inept. Riley is senile. Jimmy has carried them.

  21. What! What David just give the coach some blame pie!! Okay David I see you my man! I'm riding with you my man

  22. Pat Riley should look also for Khem Birch and Justine Holiday!!!
    Also Kevin Love is now officilly waved by the Cavalliers!!! We hope that Pat Riley move now before they gone again!!!
