Finally got my Eric Bana. All it took was Vols being crushed to death by a BBW for me to usurp and take my rightful place.

Bigtime, I think in our 2 previous games we basically averaged 1 TO per quarter and this one only 9 total as well good stuff!


I love it. Nothing says "sloppy" like turnovers.


Oh man sometimes last year reg season it'd seem like we'd be around 20 often and have like 4 in the final 2 minutes sometimes just trying to close games and it drove me crazy, especially on inbound ones grrrrr!

How does Jovic feel sitting watchin a rookie, when hes still not playin much? Gotta sting a little


Yeah I was on record multiple times saying we needed to keep JJJ over Jovic in a Dame trade if it was possible to keep 1, because even back in the preseason he just looked more NBA ready at least to me. Jovic's time will still (hopefully) come but this team is trying to win now and for whatever reason (probably defense/favoring his beloved small ball) Spo just doesn't want to play Jovic. Those extra years of college and being 22 make a big difference for JJJ. I think it's time to send Jovic down to G league to at least let him play instead of just watching every game. Get him the reps and allow him to build confidence.


Thats the most interesting part tho, they dont send him down either?! Like why?

He does get to scrimmage against NBA players while in Miami, you send him down to the DLeague to have him work on particular parts of his game.

I think Jovic got something going on with his leg still or is trying to get back in shape after the injury. He played a lot of ball this summer so it makes zero sense not to give him burn if he's healthy.

Yeah offensively I think he's fine just needs to build confidence and chemistry with the team, but his defensive rotations and such need work at least I think that's what keeps Spo from trusting him. Maybe he's getting that work in practice and doesn't need G league, at least that appears to be how the Heat are handling it.

You stick w/ the process. Learn, improve, grow that hunger so when you're number's called you go out there & show your worth. Ain't nobody feeling sorry for Jovic. You prove yourself - prove you deserve consistent minutes.....nothing handed to you. If he pouts & wants out then he was never supposed to be here.
Championship teams experience adversities. We in that process. Started gm1. Remember this time. Remember this pain. Our time is coming...

Before tonight’s home game, the Heat had a 6-game winning streak despite having to play nearly twice as many road games as home games to start the season, while the Rockets have a 6-game winning streak but have played nearly 80% of their games at home to start the season.

You're welcome LeBron.

Tyler Herro is a TURD.
Bam is NOT elite but is getting better.
Fire Spoelstra!
Josh Heupel is coming for you.

I’m a proud admirer and lover of BBWs!

We got two Chicago games, and those guys don't care right now....Should be able to tack on another 2 just there.

I hope so, but the Chicago matchups have been tough ones if they are healthy (even minus Lonzo). And to win back-to-back on anyone else’s court is always difficult.

This is just wrong. Spo doesn't like to play small because he likes small players. He plays small because he'd rather have skill and athleticism on the court rather than just size. Jovic could provide both. He's not a big stiff. He's not playing because he's either seriously deficient in some area, or deficient and not working hard enough to fix the issue for Spo's liking.
