The whistle seems to be blowing when the Heat drive the lane, but not the other way around.

I just tuned in. Why does Maxey have 0 pts going in to the half?

Maxey is settling for bad shots ....needs to figure out how to score when the shot is off.

We ain't ever winning with Maxey being a straight zero

Well what can we expect when Maxey has 0 points.

Maybe pressing a bit on Christmas with his all-star campaign in full swing

Down 14 and Maxey has a bagel so far. Hampton has done a good job guarding him. Maybe he catches heat in the 2nd half. If not this will be a blowout.

Dissapointing from Maxey. Worst thing is he's a good kid, hope he doesn't take this to heart. Still another half to turn things around though.

We really need another guard that can create and score. They've locked in on Maxey, pressured him every time he's gotten the ball. It's the recipe for beating us and stopping him. He's not a point guard so finding the open man and reading the defense isn't his strongest quality. It's Maxey though, and I'm not counting him out for a big 2nd half. He can drop 20 in a quarter no problem if he gets going.

The thing about Maxey, is that the thing that makes him great in my eyes aside from his shooting is his off ball movement. Which because of his shooting and movement creates so many opportunities for his teammates with the spacing he creates. But even Steph Curry has difficult games vs strong defense.

But he can make a huge impact on or off the ball with a guy that's capable of being an on ball gunner. Preferably one that can gun off ball too, especially considering Joel is an on ball gunner. Zach would be great
