I watched Tyler Herro stand in the corner for the first 6 minutes
That’s when I knew Miami would be in a good spot
Now they’re looking to him, and 5 straight points – 7:23 PM

Kyle Lowry has been pacing himself
I’m not worried about him picking out mismatches and taking advantage in the mid-range in the long run
As we see right now, he knows they need aggressive Kyle tonight
So he’s bringing it – 7:16 PM

Make it 2 for 2 on 3s for Robinson. The Heat needed more from Robinson and Lowry. They’re getting it early, with Lowry already with eight points. – 7:16 PM

3 names interest me most as @Portland Trail Blazers look for new GM: @Danny Ainge, @Barryathree & Chad Buchanan, the latter in his 4th season as @Indiana Pacers GM. Ainge’s credentials are impeccable. Barry is a rising front-office star. Buchanan served as interim GM prior to Olshey hire in PDX. – 6:15 PM

Asked Spoelstra about the different looks the Heat get with the players they will use to replace Bam (Dedmon, Okpala, Tucker, Yurtseven):
“They are all a little bit different… we still have great versatility with our front court.”

Miami’s Cristobal pursuit has been ongoing for several days, per multiple sources, and there is optimism internally that UM will land him. THIS DOES NOT MEAN UM IS DEFINITELY GETTING HIM; I don’t know that. I know the highest levels of UM are optimistic. – 5:46 PM

Any analysis before these Heat games can be given, but there’s one obvious overarching point:
If Lowry and Duncan don’t play well, Miami won’t win a game until Jimmy returns
One of them playing well can make it a game
But both of them even things out – 3:31 PM

Last time Miami faced Indiana, even thought they fell short, they went mostly drop and actually handled them decently enough on that end
Offense was just terrible
That’ll be the formula again tonight without Bam, which makes the defensive scheming more winnable than other teams – 2:42 PM

Lance Stephenson thought he was headed back to Indiana. Then there was momentum he’d land in Denver. When nothing panned out, he played pickup with whoever he could find.
