Duncan Robinson is starting today, which means this is his 175th consecutive regular-season appearance. That breaks the franchise record held by Glen Rice, who appeared in 174 straight games for the Heat during a streak that spanned from 1992 to 1994. – 6:36 PM

It really needs to be said how much Oladipo can change things
Miami’s depth has been huge so far, but getting a guy of his caliber no matter the % he’s at is major
Switchy defensive lineups, another initiator/attacker, and just a pure talent
Can never have too many of those – 4:01 PM

This period of time without Bam Adebayo providing some defensive clarity for when he returns
Switching will always be there, but it’s better as a schematic complement:
