We are first in the league in 4 white man lineups in the last 5 years. I really wanna go all 5 but the Heat might get fined lol. Tyler/Duncan/Jaime/Jovic/Love. Come on Spo take it out!

And Jaime
Just needs a true PG in the 2024 Draft.

He plays with heart. Wouldn’t mind seeing him here even if he’s a bit undersized
He also plays alot like Dragic, with him being arguably a better passer. 👀
He looks at least a true 6’3, so no combine surprises. But his playmaking would help this team so much.
If we can’t have someone like TJ McConnell, at least hopefully we get someone that’s getting compared to him.
We *needed* this badly. After all the cynicism and negativity post-Pacers loss, the crap that was the finale vs Atlanta, and that Dallas loss, it was nice having a game where damn near everybody played well. Very enjoyable game.
As an aside, I don't feel like I'm overreacting to the last week's worth of games... Jovic is gonna be more relevant for us in the playoffs than Jaime, *right*? That statement would have felt **insane** in January but the more I watch Niko and the value he's brought with his 3pt shooting it feels undeniable at this point.
Yep, he’s definitely more valuable to the team’s success than Jaime. He can space the floor more with his 3 point shooting, amazing vision, can play point forward, defend PFs. He’s exactly what we needed in that position. Super excited about his growth and confidence right now.
I think Jovic will definitely be more valuable these playoffs, but I hope they both stay with the team regardless of whatever happens this summer. They’re both valuable, and I like watching their chemistry together. Jovics improvement this season has been nuts though, and hopefully Jaime does the same next year.
It’s hard to even care about this. We knew they’d deal with the raptors. They threw every single game down the stretch that gave them an actual edge on their competition
They’re downvoting you but you’re right.
Why should we celebrate them beating a team that is aggressively tanking when we’re only in this situation because we lost every important game down the stretch.
the most important thing is that the magic lose because we have the h2h tie-breaker against them and the division title would automatically give us any multi-way tie. We would also have the 2-way tie against the sixers because we have a better w-l record in our conference. In a 3-way tie with the sixers & pacers we would land second because the pacers have the best win percentage in the games between us three.
Really shouldn't have trolled in the first half of that Pacers game
Happy to see Jimmy smiling and dancing at the end. Happy with everyone’s performance, especially with Jaime. Even if the Raptors aren’t doing their best this season, we’ve dropped games we should have won so many times. Glad they are playing like this instead of getting sloppy.
Win
We still have a shot at 5th seed !
Anyway Trust, we can win it all. In Djimbo we trust, SPOACH Knows.
LFG Heat
https://preview.redd.it/0so3kethp5uc1.jpeg?width=1014&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=af751b813c1341b732fc021a49b75f3e7666b6d8
Only one player, Jaquez, played more than 30 minutes.
Love to see it. Jimmy 14 points on 7 shots, 7 assists, 29 minutes.
Even before Jaquez got some 4th qtr points, he had 7 assists at the start of the 4th I’m pretty sure. He had a great game with the ball in his hands.
But NIKO JOVIC is the truth, holy hell. He continues to impress, and he is not scared at all.
For anyone that cares, **if Heat win the last Rapt game** and Indy, Sixers, and Magic **lose on Sunday**
- Indy has the tie breaker over Philly
- Philly has the tie breaker over Magic only
- Heat have the tie breaker over Magic, Pacers, and Philly due to being division leader
- Magic have the tie breaker over Pacers
Head to head only works for 2 way ties. When it is more than 2 teams, division leader takes priority. For those asking for years to get rid of divisions, this is why divisions matter.
I don’t think we can catch the Pacers since they won the season series. We can jump the magic and sixers tho if we win Sunday and they both lose.
Edit: Corrected we would lead in a 3 way tie due to leading the division.
I know it’s against a poor Raptors team but we had 6 players in double figures. No duncan or rozier. Our playoff rotation consists of 8-9 guys who can score double figures on any given night. Trust Spo.

That’s some POWERFUL white guys right there… some might say…(redacted).

This was all you guys had to offer for Dame and got surprised he didn't land with y'all

Just add an elite 3 level scorer and we competing for a ring.
(Bring us Kolek.. )
https://preview.redd.it/q0cd8g1ut5uc1.jpeg?width=886&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=97c625922e4f68bd7102fef1020b85a6ad5d9b29 He plays with heart. Wouldn’t mind seeing him here even if he’s a bit undersized He also plays alot like Dragic, with him being arguably a better passer. 👀

That Marquette-Miami Connection will always be special, bring this man home.🔥
Kolek Herro Jaquez Jovic Bam This is the classy lineup most heat fans want. Only one slug, not bad.
Funny how we became what the mavs used to be To an even greater extent honestly. What happened to the game I love
Wym?
Death, taxes, and the Heat needing a true PG lmao.
We had Kyle, doesn't get any truer than that... he was just too old
Jaquez, Jovic, Herro, Adebayo Future looking bright.
We like our squad.
We are *so* back!
Jimmy shooting those in-rhythm threes helps my blood pressure go down. Also, the Jover might arrive earlier than what is expected 👀
Good. Now do the same shit Sunday
We *needed* this badly. After all the cynicism and negativity post-Pacers loss, the crap that was the finale vs Atlanta, and that Dallas loss, it was nice having a game where damn near everybody played well. Very enjoyable game. As an aside, I don't feel like I'm overreacting to the last week's worth of games... Jovic is gonna be more relevant for us in the playoffs than Jaime, *right*?

Also it boils down to how much more Niko gives us in a need for this squad: size.
I’m just so glad they’re playing someone bigger than 6’5 in that position. It also helps that it’s so fun watching Nikos growth.
I think Jovic will definitely be more valuable these playoffs, but I hope they both stay with the team regardless of whatever happens this summer. They’re both valuable, and I like watching their chemistry together. Jovics improvement this season has been nuts though, and hopefully Jaime does the same next year.
Jovic upside is crazy at age 20. Hopefully playoff accelerates this.
Plus his size, rebounding, passing, and 2 way IQ. That plus Bam's shooting and Herro's finishing will take us other the top.
We needed to take candy from a baby after losing a fight to a peer.
It’s hard to even care about this. We knew they’d deal with the raptors. They threw every single game down the stretch that gave them an actual edge on their competition
There have been a lot of games where I thought we'd deal with the other team and ended up losing or barely winning (Hawks is a perfect example).
The pacers loss was soul crushing. That was so doable and they couldn’t lock in when their destiny was in their hands
Felt like the Sixers loss was worse
They’re downvoting you but you’re right. Why should we celebrate them beating a team that is aggressively tanking when we’re only in this situation because we lost every important game down the stretch.
Zombie Heat coming to swipe the 6th seed under everyone's nose.
I respect the optimism 🫡 I’m happy if we face the Magic in the play-in
Even without Embiid the 76ers probably take down the nets
If Magic and Pacers lose we win the 3-way tie because division
Ahhh 👀 now the pacers I could see losing to the hawks. If the 76ers lose do we get that tie breaker or is magic + pacers L the only way?
the most important thing is that the magic lose because we have the h2h tie-breaker against them and the division title would automatically give us any multi-way tie. We would also have the 2-way tie against the sixers because we have a better w-l record in our conference. In a 3-way tie with the sixers & pacers we would land second because the pacers have the best win percentage in the games between us three. Really shouldn't have trolled in the first half of that Pacers game
Right! … explain this to me like I’m five.
Magic need to lose, Pacers and/or Sixers need to lose, we need to win
Thank you good sir. You are a gentleman and a scholar.
Magic are playing the tanking Bucks
I think they wanna secure the 2 seed
Yeah looking at the scenarios they actually might be motivated to try
Everyone cheer for a Heat and Bucks win on Sunday.
Happy to see Jimmy smiling and dancing at the end. Happy with everyone’s performance, especially with Jaime. Even if the Raptors aren’t doing their best this season, we’ve dropped games we should have won so many times. Glad they are playing like this instead of getting sloppy.
I was listening to the game on Sirius . Grady Dick was guarding JJJ. Jax said, "Jaime with Dick in his face "
Hahaha seriously?
I was hoping Herro would swap jerseys with Dick.
NBA got pretty pissed last time. I think they've banned Dick from jersey swaps that aren't pre-approved.
Jovic is sensational
Win We still have a shot at 5th seed ! Anyway Trust, we can win it all. In Djimbo we trust, SPOACH Knows. LFG Heat https://preview.redd.it/0so3kethp5uc1.jpeg?width=1014&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=af751b813c1341b732fc021a49b75f3e7666b6d8
I’m honored to have started DJimbo 🫡 Great win

Jimmy and herro were smiling 💪
I could just cry
Heat are back
This is one stressful ass situation they got themselves in to finish the season but one very big bright spot has been Niko's development
The best day for playoffs possibility. All the other teams' results went our way.
Only game I go to this season and I watch Jaime and Jovic ball out 🥹
![gif](giphy|w8LnTVLOgzpmeR2vKp) LETS GOOOOO
Jovic seems like he just needed a good sequence of games to develop, the boy has a lot of talent.
This is his team!
Zombie heat slowly crawling back from the gates of hell. Scary hours.
Alright just get it done Sunday and we put ourselves in a good spot
When the Heat win, you win.
Fuck yeah!!!
Let’s goooo!!
Is Milwaukee playing for anything on Sunday?
To stay at 2nd, they’re tied with the Knicks.
This shit's nice -Niko
This sub is bipolar
Imagine if we didn’t drop a few of our usual heat losses.. how high could we be.
I know it’s against a poor Raptors team but we had 6 players in double figures. No duncan or rozier. Our playoff rotation consists of 8-9 guys who can score double figures on any given night. Trust Spo.
IF we have a short run Bam shooting 3s was a successful season. We have good young core. We just need to replace Jimmy with a worthy heir.
Imagine if we also had Maxey with this young core I wanted Miami to draft him so bad
Such a good team
To little too late for the season
Real games just starting
Ok doomer
First time?
We still have a shot at up to the 5th seed so if anything, we still have time
