This Heat season, and perhaps this era of Heat basketball, stands one loss from expiration after a sixth consecutive home playoff loss and a second offensive dud against Boston in three days.
[I’m glad he wrote that. I do think that this is going to finally get through the thick skulls at 601 Biscayne that WE DON’T HAVE ENOUGH! NOT CLOSE!]
Undermanned and seemingly out of both firepower and answers…
The eighth-seeded Heat fell to 23-21 at Kaseya Center this season and dropped to 1-12 at home against teams with sure-fire Hall of Fame players. Miami has been outscored by 148 points in those 13 games, a signal that major roster change is likely needed.
…
the errant-shooting Heat never did anything to suggest it could actually win on Monday.
…
…at a talent deficit against Boston…
[It’s not just against Boston, not just against teams with sure HoF’ers, WE’RE AT A TALENT DEFICIT AGAINST THE FUCKING INDIANA MAD ANTS!]
Playing before..,another sellout crowd, the Heat trailed by double figures for the final 44 minutes of the game.
[He mentions that. I have mentioned that. I mentioned that to him. Will that be in jeopardy? I don’t know. I do think if the Bus is sold out next season, you’re going to hear an “involved” crowd, one with a boo hair trigger.]
As was the case in Saturday’s 104-84 loss to Boston, the Heat again shot blanks, repeatedly missing open shots.
[I listened to several minutes of the game on “Heat” radio excuse me “the Heat audio experience”🙄. I thought I heard the lead Heat audio experience hominem state that Tyler shot an airball and I immediately heard a cascade of boos.]
…
Per TNT, Adebayo had some “choice words” for teammates after Miami’s 104-84 Game 3 loss, and Love implored teammates that they “can’t go out” like this.
None of those words made the least bit of difference, not against a vastly superior opponent and not on a night the Heat shot threes as if they were blindfolded.
…
…there wasn’t nearly enough offensive firepower for the Heat to keep up.
Many of the Heat’s missed threes were open looks…
