FT Miami 104 Toronto 99

Bam Bam is back back and Ira wrote late last week that he "believed" that Spo would recreat the starting lineup with Donut in it since, Ira wrote, Spo "isn't one who fixes something that isn't broken."                                                 And he did. Spo started Bam, who had 14 pnts and 9 rebs; started Donut--who thankfully only played 18's--and had 8 on 3/6 (2/5); started Jimmy who had a 3W, 19, 10, 10, didn't start Kyle. I checked the injury report earlier today and didn't see Kyle's name mentioned, but Kyle didn't play, Gabe Vincent played in his place...It doesn't look like PG is Gabe's "natural position" as he had the same number of assists tonight as I had and two more turnovers than I did; started PJ, 5 pnts, 4 rebbes, The Composer played more mins (28) than Donut and was off key again tonight, 6 on 2/8 (2/6). The Omer Yertseven Experience ended suddenly. The Big O was a DNPCD. Oof. Tyler also played PG and played more minutes, 34, than the starter at that position which Spo doesn't have positions unless Pat Riley tells him to which he did so he does. Tyler was game high with 23 on 8/16 (1/3) and had 4 rebbes, 3 asts and a turnover. You've got a nigh impossible job convincing me Tyler Herro plays the point position, I don't care what you call it. By the numbers tonight, Jimmy was the point guard so blow me.

Whatever lineup Spo throws out there this season works. I don't know if he might want to consider starting me. I did play organized ball in junior high. Maybe a little rusty but my assist/turnover ratio was better than Gabe's tonight. 

The "Heat" move to 12 games over .500, 28-16, after beating a pretty fair Tonto team, now 21-20. 

Kyle didn't play because that was his old team, did he?...Out for "personal reasons". (?) Doesn't answer the question but I assume the answer is no.
Can you feel the heat down in your soul (I can feel the heat down in my soul).
