Had we won the coin toss, would it be safe to say that Danny would have gone for Herro, or would he still stick with Langford?

yes

we may never know, but everything i have read on this agrees. ainge would have picked herro.

such is life sometimes.

It's okay...he almost wanted to trade our BKN picks for Justise Winslow. Remember?

Watched Giannis in person and passed on him lol. I remember wanting Giannis so bad and we took Kelly Olynyk. So disappointing

If I'm the Heat, I'm looking to get Butler involved to start the 3Q. Put Smart on him.

good call, i agree. you cant put everything on your rookie herro. butler has been bottled up, so look for lots of picks to get him free and lots of plays for him.

smart can stop him though.

Theis has got to catch those !!!

[SparzWizard]

Could've sworn that was a 2 by Kemba in the 2nd quarter, but I'll take the 3 lol.

[CaNdyMaN1369]

there you go, Theis...

[slamtheking]

Butler already moaning for calls.  refs will be acting on his behalf before the game is out.

C's to get back to passing on offense.  too little passing

Good half.

Terrible last not (again) by Tatum.

Walks the ball up the court and takes a low-percentage step-back three.

Why???

I continue to hear this... for 99.9% of the league it’s a bad shot, not for Tatum who’s an elite isolation and step-back 3P shooter. It hasn’t gone in for him lately, but he leads the NBA in those plays making it at a +40% clip, it’s only a matter of time before the shots start falling.

It's a bad shot because our offence was working well and it is a jarring change of pace

He had possession at 14 seconds, there’s no pushing the pace at the end of a half only bleeding the clock and get a decent shot (which for it is better than decent) to ensure last possession.

[SparzWizard]

Bad start to the 3rd quarter already.

[Phantom255x]

This team in the 3rd, no matter how they do in the 1st half, comes out slow...

[SCeltic34]

Big mistake by Kemba, went under the screen on Crowder there.  Crowder missed but he had just made one.  It's things like that that needs to be tightened up.

5-15    from 3 btw lol xd if we had 3 more go in it would look more like last games

[Atzar]

I like the ball movement but somebody does have to shoot.  Overpassing a tad.

Jaylen has done a good job though. Looks like they're keeping Smart on Dragic

[gouki88]

We seem to have a grip on their zone now

[CaNdyMaN1369]

Brown, again......
