    because Silas nor Jalen have the balls to tell him he’s not. Very simple.

    Miami didn't score in the last 5 minutes of the game and still held on

    This team is taking some strides finally in the right direction. Defense has improved and eventually decision making will improve

    It is good to have that feeling, it means you are in games until the end. Some people want them to lose and still get upset when they lose

    That ankle roll by Alpi looked bad.

    It happened so consistently that it looked like the game plan was to leave these killer shooters uncontested. I suppose it could be lousy discipline, but one could think that it was part of our design.

    If we started out better defensively, we could have won this game. Perimeter defense sucks

    If Garuba can work on that shot a bit more, he could play the 3 at times. His feet are quick enough to stay in front of pg’s.

    If we could see that in the first quarter, the people on the sideline with suits on should have also seen it. It happens in too many games. Could be they just don't listen.

    Definitely knows how to run it. Hope they have Nix set to be traded. We'll soon see.

    Not quite, but we did have an out-of-bounds play to tie the game late. Our staff decided that our fulcrum needed to take that shot. It was a bad miss (followed by a more egregious miss by the refs).

    Just lack of discipline and accountability from the coaching staff. It’s getting better though.
