Game Thread GAME# 54: HEAT @ BLAZERS - FEBRUARY 9, 2020 - SUNDAY, 6:00 PM, NBCSNW

CJ is such trash. 2 turnovers in row. Can not wait until we trade his sorry ass

 

[illmatic99]

Oh my god. This lineup is utterly brutal.

it's not the lineup, it's CJ. he is absolutely horrible tonight. even for him. Look at his effort in trying to get around the screen to contest dragic

You’ll be waiting a long time.

We've already waited too long; it won't happen.

Looked for it....found none.

 

[JDC]

Wow this Duncan Robinson is amazing. I literally never heard of him before this game.

Great fit with Spoelstra too.

So good at utilizing elite movement shooters, especially as screeners.

 

[Propagandist]

Stop playing Melo and Biggie together the fuckkkk

I vote for NO Swanigan and YES Gabriel 100% of the time.

 

[B-Roy]

This team is incapable of doing anything without Dame????

 

[Propagandist]

Exactly. Should've sold high.

 

[JDC]

Tough foul on Biggie, but the best he's looked in drop coverage this year BY FAR.

 

[Darkwebs]

Yeah, lean on him, Biggie!

 

[TBpup]

Hiding CJ on Iggy now. Best to put him on someone who hasn't made a basket in 8 months.

 

[illmatic99]

Caleb is always in the right spot, man.

If only he had some more game and skill, or athleticism.

 

[Darkwebs]

Trent needs to work on his handles this summer

 

[B-Roy]

Stop posting Melo. Do anything else

 

[illmatic99]

Trent has some Kawhi's esque skills there on grabbing the ball. dude just rips it out of hands

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

Iso for CJ TO’s iso for melo bricks and TO’s... Every start to the 4th and 2nd.

 

[TBpup]

Meanwhile, Trent picks Dragic's pocket....nice. Not yet the shot creator CJ is (and may never be) but SO much better on defense and more efficient now that he's got some confidence.

 

[AldoTrapani]

Man am I trippin guys but Swanigan isn’t all THAT bad????

 

[illmatic99]

get CJ off the floor man

 

[Darkwebs]

Thank god Dame's back in. And that somehow, we didn't lose the lead completely while he was resting

 

[TBpup]

My goodness....watching CJ with the ball outside of a catch-n-shoot situation, is painful.

 

[hoopsjock]

I was just about to post this same thing. We especially don't need to run that out of timeouts with no mismatch.

 

[Propagandist]

The rise of Trent has made me turn on CJ a bit... Is it crazy to wish Trent was starting over CJ? Probably...

 

[TBpup]

CJ with the 2nd most shots on the team...and the 5th most FG's. He just has to get his shots.

 

[hoopsjock]

Yeah, Miami needed a free point. Thanks Melo!

 

[Wade Garrett]

I vote for NO Swanigan and YES Gabriel 100% of the time.

I dunno about that.
Caleb is improving and Gabriel is...well...probably a real nice kid.

 

[TBpup]

Melo and CJ taking WAY too many shots given how poorly (11-28) they are shooting. Meanwhile, Ariza and Trent are 13-18.

 

[Darkwebs]

Mellow out, Melo. Can't get techs in close games like these

 

[Propagandist]

Man, I was so wrong about Gary and happy about it.
