The Miami Heat lost to the Nets in their second-to-last preseason game, but the story of the game was Haywood Highsmtih. He got the start on a night the Heat were without Jimmy Butler, Tyler Herro, Kyle Lowry, Kevin Love and others, and finished with 15 points. Highsmith has forced his way into the regular rotation and might even have an argument to start at power forward ahead of Kevin Love.
Wes Goldberg and David Ramil break down that option, which other players’ stock is rising, one whose is falling and answer a listener question about whether they are concerned about Nikola Jovic.

Maybe Jovic needs another year of development, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Starter Bench
1. Rich 1. Big butt
2. Headband 2. JJ
3. Jimbo 3. Caleb
4. Love 4. Double H
5.Bam 5. Bryant………….this is solid AF
Start all our young players and have the veterans come off the bench if necessary it's the young players time to shine
Nikola Jovic High Smith and Cain Orlando Robinson Herro an others young players
No James harden 🙏
We need to get rid of Dru smith
Good let's start him then and give Jamal Cain his minutes on the second unit
Gotta say, I have yet to be impressed by Jovic. I'm honestly more impressed by JJJ's potential. I really hope I'm wrong, but I don't see the Jovic experiment going the way most envision it.
I don’t wanna see love in the rotation with this much defensive versatility tbhv
I still believe in jovic and i hope rj hampton can get the opportunity to prove himself when health, early in the season I think you can try highsmith starting and kyle can start if healthy, hope jovic and cain get some mins
Lowry
Herro
Jimmy
Highsmith
Bam
Jrich/Hampton
Duncan/Swider
Martin
Cain/Jovic
TBryant
Am I the only one that sees Cain is better than Highsmith? 😅
dude you would have more viewers and possibly subscribers if you cut your videos to 5-10 mins a piece.
I think Jovic looks 20 years old… and gets lost and floats. Everyone else looks more polished, but again Jovic has many more years to reach his potential. I’m not worried. I still like how he bullies his way into the paint and draws fouls. If he can get a healthy stretch of games with the main guys he’ll grow a ton this year
Wasn't Highsmith the locksmith?
Cain
Highsmith
Bryant
Swider
Jovic
Robinson
Champagne
Smith
If I'm ranking preseason with Cain MVP
Please no more Harden talk is a waist of time.
Justin Champagnie I love over Dru Smith. He attacks the basket and plays great defense
Highsmith will forever be the locksmith
