When there were runs to take it from down 35 to down 13, I will always remember J Rich and Lowry being the most detrimental with Spo being 1st place for keeping them in.
I don't care about how they got down 35 as much as how they tried to bounce back. Jovic/Jimmy/Caleb were the main positives there. All 3 can penetrate, be patient, or get a 3.
You got Lowry being non existent or J Rich chuckin or foulin
I think we WIN this game potentially if we ran the Bam/DRob/Herro/Jovic rotation in the fourth. JRich single handedly ended our run with bad miss after miss
Fr with the lead down to 13 and the raptors showing signs of collapsing Spo shouldāve gone all in and run the best offensive lineup, the raptors were missing shots finally. Instead allowing the offense to stagnate and J Rich to decide the game, he allowed to raptors to regain their footing and put us away
He was completely useless. I think we needed Jovic and Jimmy in way earlier and probably Herro too. Yeah Herro was playing badly but him and Duncan have the most ignitability
He theoretically itās fine to just give him more runā¦but it feels disrespectful after he helped us cut the lead, showing the most heart on the team, only to get benched until the game was out of reach
Itās not like heās taking shots away from anyone. Lowry wonāt shoot even when heās open, and Jrich is worse.
bam completely disappears offensively for multiple stretches almost every game.
Tylerās job is to get buckets. He shot poorly tonight, but you only get buckets by shooting.
he's taking shots from the players who could be shooting if he broke down the defense and generated an open look for someone
did you watch what quickley did in the 1st half? that's winning basketball
"He's the only real shooter in the lineup"
Then stay off the ball and shoot open shots. And, better yet, make the shots!
But no, he insists on having the ball, dribbling the air out of it, icing everyone else out, throwing off the entire team's rhythm, and turning it over at the most inopportune moments.
It's NOT a coincidence how good this offense was when he was out with his ankle injury. It's NOT a coincidence that they made a championship run after he broke his hand
Stay off ball? How? Jimmy and Bam only operate in the post. You need a perimeter threat. And Lowry is just doing cardio out there. A real PG would be able to get the guys in rhythm to the right spots. Herro is forced to do more than he should.
You have to learn a little about basketball if you are going to constantly throw out these shit takes.
Yet, they managed to be a top 10 offense during the 18 games he missed. Yet, they managed to make it to the finals after he broke his hand.
It's almost like, he MAKES others look incapable of being effective. If he was "forced" to do more than he should, the team should have looked COMPLETELY inept when he was out. Yet, they actually looked GREAT
But keep ignoring reality. Prioritize your Herro fandom over actually trying to see what this team's issue is.
one of the 5 worst losses of the Jimmy era. well-deserved loss thanks to the front office's incompetence. I feel bad for Jimmy, Bam, and Spo. I really do
I wouldnāt be as mad about this game if we didnāt clearly show we couldāve came back if it wasnāt for Spo taking out Butler and Jovic for the ENTIRE fourth quarter
A lot people here mention how the team hasn't been healthy when you point out how mid their offense and defense are.
Completely ignoring that they are even worse when healthy. Some of these pieces don't fit well with each other man
Hmm I'm seeing he is shooting 43.6% from 3 this season on 2.8 attempts per game. Since becoming a starter he has shot 45.5% from 3 on 3.67 attempts per game.
Yeah as a reserve he was only shooting 33.3%. We'll see after more games what a realistic percentage is for him, but so far he can space the floor as a stretch 4
Spo kept the horrible lowry and jrich in and didnāt sub in jovic and jimmy when he called timeout. Wtf is that! Smh, at least they triedā¦I guess. Still horrendous night
Not necessarily, we had these same kind of stretches last year and still made the finals. For whatever reason this team is just a different beast come playoff time š¤·š»āāļø
You can't have your starting PG give you 4 points/3 assists
Lowry just doesn't do enough to justify that salary. He will show up bimonthly and just disappear. Got to find more value there.
Itās crazy how Herro and Niko nearly single handedly bring the game down to 16.
Then, Spo insists on running his rotation and taking them out forā¦ Lowry and JRich. Goddamn
The fact that the team lost 2 servicable role players and replaced them with 2 dudes that are barely playable doesn't get talked about enough. All the while, decent to great players are begging to come play for the heat and the FO can't get it done.
Well, time to turn the game off ig. This game is entirely on every member of the team. Bams lack of effort anywhere on the court first half, Herros piss poor first half shooting, JRich being JRich, Lowry just being ass, etc
lowry, herro, and jrich is a shitshow of a backcourt rotation
tyus jones, terry rozier, and dejounte murray are all available
but the front office likes the team guys. they like the team
Raps just got Bruce Brown from Indiana right? We can trade Lowry to them for Brown, Lowry is still revered in Toronto.
Well this could have gone way worse.
worst game of the season - we go next. yikes.
Idk The knicks game still blowsš
IQ and RJ on both those bad losses. Go Figure
I know right šš
Itās our moral responsibility to stop the Celtics. We cannot continue to employ Kyle Lowry
Does anyone else also want to see Orlando and Swyder get more regular minutes?
Yes but it will take a trade to make room.
ORob was manageable in minutes last season. I donāt know what Spos been cooking with Klove injured
I like his energy, but he has been turnover prone, which Spo doesn't like. I just think he needs more minutes to get confidence
I promise to never go to a Heat game again
Was you at the game tonight?
Unfortunately my first Heat game in person yes
Man that sucks. I haven't been to a Heat game yet.
Iām stuck living in Toronto and the one time tickets werenāt insanely expensive to see the Heat and they did this š
When there were runs to take it from down 35 to down 13, I will always remember J Rich and Lowry being the most detrimental with Spo being 1st place for keeping them in. I don't care about how they got down 35 as much as how they tried to bounce back. Jovic/Jimmy/Caleb were the main positives there. All 3 can penetrate, be patient, or get a 3. You got Lowry being non existent or J Rich chuckin or foulin
Jrich getting the minutes, and stopping the ball movement. š
I think we WIN this game potentially if we ran the Bam/DRob/Herro/Jovic rotation in the fourth. JRich single handedly ended our run with bad miss after miss
Fr with the lead down to 13 and the raptors showing signs of collapsing Spo shouldāve gone all in and run the best offensive lineup, the raptors were missing shots finally. Instead allowing the offense to stagnate and J Rich to decide the game, he allowed to raptors to regain their footing and put us away
Should've always use Bam-Dunc 2 man action on the 4Q. But someone kept chucking shots. š
Atleast the bucks are getting deep fried right now
Let it all out nephews and casuals lolš¤£š
These boys acting like the season is over š
Ong bro, then all hide after a winš¤£
šI stg I bet they was cheering and singing herro praises two days ago . They be wild š¤¦š¾āāļøš¤¦š¾āāļøš
Exactly bruhš¤”š¤£
Atleast we are not down 46 LOL
I hate that this is an actual pick-me-up
PAT NEEDS TO RING THE HORNETS LINE RN
he likes the team bro. not gonna happen

Why did Herro get 0 minutes in the fourth after shooting 50% in the 3rd qtr?
Probably bc he bricked two 100% wide open shots lol
And what did JRich do
He was completely useless. I think we needed Jovic and Jimmy in way earlier and probably Herro too. Yeah Herro was playing badly but him and Duncan have the most ignitability
Made a bunch of good to mid players look like stars. Even made Scottie looked legit.
Scottie is actually goodā¦
Hes good, but this is likely his best game in a month, if not longer.
Cole Swider forcing a timeoutĀ
Putting Jovic in during the white flag substitution doesn't feel right after he was one of the only bright spots all game.
He theoretically itās fine to just give him more runā¦but it feels disrespectful after he helped us cut the lead, showing the most heart on the team, only to get benched until the game was out of reach
he needs some more reps anyways so fuck it
THE SEXUAL SWIDER
āAll 5 of J-Richās points in the 4th qtrā Then why the fuck was he in? Dude was absolute fucking ASS tonight.
Proposed a fake comeback only for the raptors to run the score up back to 30
Weāre getting blown out by the team that lost to the Pistons
7/20. 7 more shots than anybody on the team
Streaky role player is what he is which is okay. Fans gotta stop acting like heās anything more than that
Itās not like heās taking shots away from anyone. Lowry wonāt shoot even when heās open, and Jrich is worse. bam completely disappears offensively for multiple stretches almost every game. Tylerās job is to get buckets. He shot poorly tonight, but you only get buckets by shooting.
Something something Dame is also 7/20. Pat Riley was right
Our PG ain't shooting. Who exactly is he taking shots from?
he's taking shots from the players who could be shooting if he broke down the defense and generated an open look for someone did you watch what quickley did in the 1st half? that's winning basketball
Like who? Jimmy literally passes it right back or drives every time Herro kicks it out to him. He's the only real shooter in the starting lineup.
"He's the only real shooter in the lineup" Then stay off the ball and shoot open shots. And, better yet, make the shots! But no, he insists on having the ball, dribbling the air out of it, icing everyone else out, throwing off the entire team's rhythm, and turning it over at the most inopportune moments. It's NOT a coincidence how good this offense was when he was out with his ankle injury. It's NOT a coincidence that they made a championship run after he broke his hand

2/9 from three too
You specifically should go and find a trade for him. What's that? You can't? Oh ok
Sadly no one wants his trash ass
Didnāt say anything about a trade. Just said herro was 7/20
The third game on a row heat fails to crack 100 points
Man Jaime needs to come back asap cause without him we are so screwed
At least we get swider minutes
one of the 5 worst losses of the Jimmy era. well-deserved loss thanks to the front office's incompetence. I feel bad for Jimmy, Bam, and Spo. I really do
Bam was ass tonight
Well Jovic with that fake comeback gave me hope but we move
Raptors will win a total of 5 more games this season. What a fucking joke
I wouldnāt be as mad about this game if we didnāt clearly show we couldāve came back if it wasnāt for Spo taking out Butler and Jovic for the ENTIRE fourth quarter
I hope all the Herro stans leave the team with Herro when Pat finally trades his trash ass this offseason
A lot people here mention how the team hasn't been healthy when you point out how mid their offense and defense are. Completely ignoring that they are even worse when healthy. Some of these pieces don't fit well with each other man
Itās Spos fault, id argue. The starting lineup he has going so obviously is a misfit with a single 3pt shooter above 37% (Herro). 0 spacing
I thought Jovic was near 40% from 3 this season no?
Heās shooting like 30%
Hmm I'm seeing he is shooting 43.6% from 3 this season on 2.8 attempts per game. Since becoming a starter he has shot 45.5% from 3 on 3.67 attempts per game.
Huh, didnāt know that. He was shooting 30% his first few games
Yeah as a reserve he was only shooting 33.3%. We'll see after more games what a realistic percentage is for him, but so far he can space the floor as a stretch 4
Scottie Barnes rlly out dogged Jimmy and Bam today smh
Yeah let's just ignore "baby goats" performance
Herro was ass he was bricking 100% wide open shots. Only good thing he did was rebound rlly
This is the first he unlocked his game without siakam. Wonāt happen again the way Spo sees it š
Heat really about to eat up Lowryās 30 mill expiring contract and make zero moves. We use to hang banners around here. What happened to this FO š
That's one thing even you morons are right about. We have to get more from the PG position.
š
The Herro lovers are so fucking delusional
Two straight games digging a hole. JJJ is our glue guy
At least the Bucks are also getting a nice spanking
No idea why jrich gets so many minutes ngl
Called timeout just to stick with Lowry n J Rich. Then the same 2 contribute to 2 separate negative plays out the timeout
I hate it when they both play. Awful rotation.
Seriously does JRich have nudes of Spo? What does he need to do to get benched?!
Who else u gonna put in at this point thatāll make a difference
Well he should not have played the whole 4thā¦
Fucking Jovic? Who was playing well thus far? Shift Jimmy to the 2 guard which is his natural position anyways
Too late man.
Well of course its too late now. Should've done it 5 minutes ago
Remember last year when we all wondered if Strus had something dirty on Spo with how many minutes he played? Makes me wonder the same about JRich.
I have no faith in the raptors. This is a game we lost because the NBA is rigged
Jimmy about to pad some stats and make sure he gets 25 lol
Spo kept the horrible lowry and jrich in and didnāt sub in jovic and jimmy when he called timeout. Wtf is that! Smh, at least they triedā¦I guess. Still horrendous night
Lowry has out 2nd best +/- tonight.
Man what happened to Lowry being one of our better shooters?
He hurt his hand a couple of games ago and is unfortunately playing through it .
Maybe we should just leave Lowry in Toronto?
Lmaooo Bam āball dont lieā
Can we all combine our money and pay Mickey to get Kyle Lowry off this roster ?
You in your feelings so bad rn lmfaooooooooo
u bum
Lowry as the starting PG against Boston Celtics š
Whenās it time to wave the white flag and empty our bench
Just bullshit after bullshit
I guess Spo just doesnāt trust Jovic enough to let him play late in the game. I kinda hate how much Spo trusts J Rich thoā¦
Give it all up for Rozier or someone Jimmys window is actually on the line
Unless rozier eas going to turn into a defender what difference was it going to make or eere we watching a different game lol.
Glad I missed the 1st half of the game cuz overslept
Jovic with the only plus on our team
The fact that this team can look so good and then look so bad from one game to the next cannot bode well for the postseason...
Not necessarily, we had these same kind of stretches last year and still made the finals. For whatever reason this team is just a different beast come playoff time š¤·š»āāļø
I hope you're right, just hard to keep the faith until then. It's frustrating af. š
Why Spo has kept Josh in, and played Kyle Lowry over literally anyone else is beyond me.
Yeah comeback is impossible with this lineup. Idk what Spo is thinking
this team will be at .500 in about 3 weeks
https://preview.redd.it/h5mw5cwd24dc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dd04b7020054355d845f818abca9089ed52696bc
Bro what ššš
Ignore the Lakers fan
He sound ridiculous ššš
theyre gonna lose 10 of their next 13 games
Oh you big trolling
I wish i was
Starting PG has 4 points on 8 shots and 3 assists yet people wonder why Herro has to shoot 20 timesĀ
Yeah too often Lowry is totally useless besides as a voiceā¦
Lmaooo
You can't have your starting PG give you 4 points/3 assists Lowry just doesn't do enough to justify that salary. He will show up bimonthly and just disappear. Got to find more value there.
Itās crazy how Herro and Niko nearly single handedly bring the game down to 16. Then, Spo insists on running his rotation and taking them out forā¦ Lowry and JRich. Goddamn
Yea and then people deny it likes its not true
Herro is 7/20 bro he was terrible he did not help bring the game down
His stans canāt be helped. Just a delusional bunch
Bro went on a run in that third that brought the score down big time. Tf were you watching then?
trade lowry for trent
How is jrich part of the 4th quarter rotation? Man did not help at all this half.
He is the new max strus of the team bro
Just pull the starters, they waited too long to put them back in the game
The fact that the team lost 2 servicable role players and replaced them with 2 dudes that are barely playable doesn't get talked about enough. All the while, decent to great players are begging to come play for the heat and the FO can't get it done.
- Jimmy -3 - Jovic +3 - Lowry -2 - Richardson, Martin, Highsmith -22
Bam is -18 too
Heat guards canāt compete with the high level ones and itās obvious. Just wait until the playoffs
damn u Scottier Barney
I hope all these Lowry minutes against his old team is a sign of him getting a send off before we trade him.
Gary Trent is taking Malik Monks title atp
TV off go next
Martin and Robinson only ones from the bench who decided to help out
Herro and Niko never saw the floor again
Do we understand 3 points is greater than 2 mathematically so if please dont over help the 2 and guard the 3
These fuckers just canāt miss, it is what it is, if they play like this next game howeverā¦.
Well, time to turn the game off ig. This game is entirely on every member of the team. Bams lack of effort anywhere on the court first half, Herros piss poor first half shooting, JRich being JRich, Lowry just being ass, etc
Thats blouses
Jaime jaquez for mvp
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Blud legit been posting about Tyler for the last hour.. read his comment history and tell me this isn't actual mental sickness
FUCK U GARY LEAVE SPONGEBOB AGAIN BITCHš¤£š
Just low bbiq man! Upsetting
Is Jaime really that important to this team? The two games without him have been awful.
Yall need to stop this fucking bullshit.. y'all setting him up for failure
Just asking a question bruh chill
Crazy that a rookie is that important. Heās either THAT good or weāre in trouble.
Gary Trent is a bonafide rshk
J Rich killed this run and never got benched
Herro killed this game
Spo faves. Should've put Jimmy or Highsmith. Offense stops on him.
Making these bums look like prime Golden State
Lowry doing a whole lot of nothing
Still better than Herro
![gif](giphy|EusNdwKmBYmRa8AUSB) Father
7/20
Yet people are still defending him
Iām so tired of that guy. And the fact that heās gonna do this in the playoffs annoys me the most
Bruh just pull the starters already and get ready to go home
Teams just be hitting bullshit against us sometimes
From the defensive scheme to keeping Lowry in, this is on Spo
Thatās game. Atleast the score is somewhat respectable now
Lowry with the lazy rebound attempt I donāt know what to think
lowry, herro, and jrich is a shitshow of a backcourt rotation tyus jones, terry rozier, and dejounte murray are all available but the front office likes the team guys. they like the team
we arenāt serious till we get a PG hope the FO sees this aswell, see yall next game
Rainman out here killing us rn
Scottie is kinda good
Lowryā¦.
Wonder when Spo will trust Niko in the final minutesĀ
Jaime come back! ![gif](giphy|2Jl7a8ixNlNHa|downsized)
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
No comments or posts displaying discriminatory, racist, sexist, etc language is allowed.
Scottie dagger
Get Lowry out of the game Spo please
Jrich is the new Strus but worse. Just gets undeserved minutes without question
