Jovic and Bam defense, offense, and passing abilities will be epic this upcoming season. I would also like to see Jovic at the 3.

The injuries continue.. the Heat will ALWAYS have the “we were injured” excuse

Funny thing is, you can never blame them because they are a different team when healthy. Healthy heat in 2022 was the best team jimmy had. They looked great last season outside of that 7-game losing streak. That losing streak was crazy because 2021 heat never lost games that many consecutively and that was the worst heat team with jimmy.

He should learn new post moves. I saw some clips of him trying those same post moves he tried with Boston in the playoffs, and he was still getting blocked.

So, in other words, Jimmy is stunting Jaime's growth. Im glad you all agree with me. Trade Jimmy already. He and the ridiculous contract he wants don't fit the Heat. BTW, Jaime is not a number one scorer on a team. He has to learn how to play on the team without having to be the primary handler. He needs to start with Jović. They are the furure of this organization. I hope Niko is gonna be fine soon. It would be nice to see him day one. I was also hoping to see him in the Olympics running the show with Jokic. Niko's ceiling is ridiculously high. I can see him beeing a legit superstar.

As I look at this roster, my personal feeling is that the bulk of what’s good about this team is what’s been drafted over the last 3 years.
If I’m the Heat, if I’m not looking like a team that is going to compete with Boston this season, I’m taking to get into the Cooper Flagg sweepstakes. I don’t care about how we roll and what we never do, this is the difference between a long shot at one title and a probable dynasty.
I also kind of feel like the NBA would want Flagg to end up in a reputable franchise where he won’t be mishandled or held back by subpar coaching. Just saying.
There are other players in this upcoming draft class that it will not suck to add to Miami’s promising youth movement.

[@PointJovic]

Side note, I absolutely love Cooper Flagg’s game. He’s like a giant Caleb Martin, if Caleb Martin had a handle and played at a league MVP level version of himself.

@@PointJovic tbh they have too many good nab players to tank unless you Jimmy misses 3/4 as season and BAM misses 1/2 the season, then it's reality. Especially with Sports still the coach they're winning 43-46 games again

Jaime can average 20-5-5
