December 25th - New Orleans Pelicans @ Miami Heat - 1-0

What a trash end of quarter shot by Bledsoe. Now I know why people said he’s like 90% of Jrue lolz.

Three separate guys failed to cover Robinson in transition. Dreadful defense.

Heat setting up for law of averages on their 3s to catch up to them.

That traveling call was a travesty. I can’t even. Why do they just randomly blow their whistles?

We need to play the ball down low to Hayes and Adam’s more. Got to get them o back down low off the perimeter.

Those Transition threes killing us. Need to improve the defense on that.

During the first quarter of the season...we are only going as far as Brandon Ingram and Steven Adams takes us.

Playoff E is in attendance this game.

The ref made it up on the next possession. That was a weak call for Zion on Robinson.

I'd say that with adams more. Hayes is still an unknown.

This is not the raptors, this heat team will make that 3 ball if you give it to them.

Hayes is capable. Just got to give him the opportunity. Adam’s is 2 for 2 when we just have him the ball down low. He made both look easy. More of that.

sorry, but it has to go much deeper than these two and I think it will...

Heat are on pace to make like, 25 threes tonight

Hayes with the TERRIBLE pass

Get BI back in there

I would rather have NAW in the game than Bledsoe with this lineup.

Why are we trying to force things through reddick?!? Drive the rim!!!

Such a wasted pick Hayes is...

Bledsoe is not a good court general. They have not run one play through Zion. And Hayes has been a part of two blown series.

Gotta admit though, the heat playing excellent defense on the 3pt line. And decent in the paint. Will be good for future film sessions to learn from

Haynes is 2 years away from being 2 years away.

Why aren't we running offense Zion Brandon is on the bench?

Bledsoe is lazy!!

Zion with a filthy pass out of the double to Bledsoe, who bricks it

You get that wide-open shot from the ball going low to Zion even though it was a missed three by Bledsoe. Bledsoe and Nelli are liabilities.

Could be a future trade chip.

Melli currently providing nothing at all on either end

Boy the heat are exposing our defensive inexperience

Again...the first quarter of the season is on BI and SA's shoulders!!

Yep.

This is the second game in a row Bledsoe has started with an entire first half full of awful decisions and bad misses.

Will he bounce back in the second half of this one like he did the last one?

Zion comes out of the restricted area to completely freeze Dragic, and Melli just doesn't feel like rotating to the paint so he doesn't. Dunk.

Sigh.

So many open 3s.

That's not a foul?

Okay.

Boy they just hot af from deep lol

Miami shooting 66.6% from 3. Jesus.

Didn't like the body language when we went down by 8. Team needs to develop strong mentally.

Hart should be starting. Bledsoe is a liability. I don’t get why NAW is not getting any minutes.

We aren't even bothering with defending the 3's today.

Imma stick with my guns.... Bledsoe and Melli need to used as trade chips for 3 & D type players. Still it's only the second game. But good Lord, what are they offering us?

Hayes/Hart/Melli/Bledsoe playing like absolute trash. Guys are consistently left guarding 2 guys at once because players don't care about rotating

So many possessions where someone either completely fails to rotate (forcing someone else to scramble), or rotates so late that they may as well not have bothered.

No, it is not. And when you are dribbling the ball it is traveling.

This game went off the rails the moment Nelli came in. Back-to-back misses and then every play was a contested three.

Where is the inside game when we're cold from outside?

WHERE IS NAW?

I’m so confused by the offensive foul call on JJ.

Same thing last game. Dude's not getting calls he consistently should get.

Tyler Herro coming off a screen, what do you think he's going to do?
