I was happy to get him, then I learned he was 27 and it wasn’t as great of a feeling. I thought he was 25, but 27 isn’t 33/44 whatver bojan is lol


I dont mind the age with how young we are.

What I wonder is how much will it cost to keep him. We need all the shooting we can get.

6th man?? Techio should be starting with Beef stew coming off the bench but Monty thinks this is the 80's

I’m not sure, someone on this board can probbaly give a good estimate tho. I really like him. He could help a lot of teams

Monty runs a 9 man lineup with one starter always on the floor and surprise surprise they don't get blown out.

A lot of positives to take from the first half. A few plays for the highlight reel too.

Competent ball. Duren is a freak, really don’t know if we would go sarr or rischaser. Wouldn’t mind seeing duren/sarr but don’t think experimenting with both for to long would be a good idea. Cause I’d think duren should be able to get a good haul. Idk if trading him when he’s played in the nba be a good idea over a non proven guy. Just thinking out loud kinda lol

Bench unit needs someone who can score the basketball. Font is pretty valuable for that unit unless Monty starts to stagger Cade/Ivey more so one's out there with the 2nd unit. Still not sure what Grimes will bring to the table but I feel like that 2nd unit gets torched every night without Font.

That said:

Duern
Stew
Ausar
Font
Cade

Is probably our best five to close out close games but I'm sure Ivey will be in.

Aight, that move from Duren was so quick I practically missed it. Love when he's aggressive.

Down just 5 points going into the fourth quarter can't complain at all with the effort in this one. Miami has drained a ton of 3s on us they are shooting 12-20 60% from deep on us that's hard to beat, espeacially when its a good team. Bam also got going in the third.

Picture perfect ball-reversal from Miami. Spo does not get enough credit. People talk bout Heat culture, developing undrafted players, etc., but this guy is the next Pop. I could absolutely see him spend the next 20 yrs in Miami and win 2-3 more rings.

Not sure if he's quite as good a scorer as Bojan, but he's got a lot more grit on d and rebounding.
