Team high 40min is the worst stat. I’m shocked his +- was only -3.

He was SO bad lmao

Betting rumors gonna be flying again

OhMyGauche | Hornets

I can get behind this

tjl297 | Cavaliers

Scary Terry selling at the end against Cleveland is how I know the Heat’s mojo really been fucked this year

Kzgoated | Heat

60 | 3 days ago

Lol Terry selling is what kills the Heat mojo. I understand why spo plays him we need ball handlers. But everytime he shoots it physically brings me pain because I know it’s a long ass rebound to the other team basically starting they’re break as if it was a turnover.

acavs7 | Cavaliers

36 | 3 days ago

Rozier has killed the Cavs for like 3+ years, guy still terrifies me.

Ice_Dragon3444 | Heat

31 | 3 days ago

He is mega washed now nothing to fear unless he is on your team.

Icy_Rich_6076

He went to Shaker Hts in HS, makes sense

National_Singer_3122 | Grizzlies

These mfs play like they have a “perfect basketball” switch they can just turn on and off at will.

tadcalabash | Cavaliers

14 | 3 days ago

The last couple games have been really rough for 3 quarters, then they just turn it on.

I choose to believe they’re doing it deliberately so they can practice close end game scenarios.

DoobieGibson

77 | 3 days ago

Heat’s defense is ridiculous. some of their rotations were near perfect and the cavs just hit an unreal shot

do not want to play them in the playoffs at all

boogswald | CLE

41 | 3 days ago

Those lower playoff seeds are not fun. Miami Orlando Atlanta all create different challenges that I feel certain the Cavs can handle but none of them are a cakewalk. All 3 teams can beat us up, Trae is the type of guy to steal games from the best team in the league. The other teams don’t give you anything for free.

anIlliterateIdiot | Heat

Caris Lavert coming for revenge. Ask Memphis what he’s capable of..

boogswald | CLE

4 | 3 days ago

Haha he was on my team for years. I know what he’s capable of

King_Dead | CLE

2 | 3 days ago

Oh we know. All 40 pt games no 4 pt games

Devilsbullet | Heat

38 | 3 days ago

We’re a sub .500 team with a top ten defense lol. If we had any real semblance of an offense other than bam and Tyler making shit work, we’d be cooking

kapesaumaga | Mavericks

8 | 3 days ago

There are times the offense looked good. Didn’t the Heat have games where they have huge leads and they’ll go to scoring drought.

Probably just need a top dog or a true #1 option in offense.

Constant_Charge_4528 | Bulls

Someone nicknamed Buckets whose job is to get buckets might help

TallGothVampireLady | Heat

6 | 3 days ago

shit yea we experienced that on sunday vs the knicks, we were up 20+ points in the third quarter just to lose in OT by 4 points

BallIsLife2016 | Cavaliers

7 | 3 days ago

I’d take them over Orlando. Think there’s a much higher chance of an injury against Orlando. I mean, just last year the Wagners elbowed JA in the ribs over and over until one literally broke.

Shit, I would have been happy with 52-30

Derrick_Rozay | Cavaliers

38 | 3 days ago

I was hopeful we’d be a 55-57 win team and even that made me feel like i was expecting too much lol

boogswald | CLE

29 | 3 days ago

Last year I was so frustrated with the stagnant offense and the same team over and over I honestly felt like I was gonna tone down the amount of time I spent with the Cavs. In retrospect it’s obvious to fire JB Bickerstaff and hire Kenny, but at the end of last season, we didn’t know Donovan’s status long term, Garland wanted out, Mobley was a somewhat negative offensive player, Bickerstaff could not bring a dynamic offense (but is still a better coach than a lot of guys) and it looked like the team would be set on a big Garland or Allen trade…. To be here today is really wonderful.

br0b1wan | Cavaliers

6 | 3 days ago

Yep, I thought if we could get to 55 and at least the 3rd seed and get to play the C’s for the ECF I’d be happy

Premaximum | Nets

Don’t say that. There’s still time.

They can’t keep getting away with it (I’m coping)

When did Bam turn in to Klay Thompson?

EnochofPottsfield | Heat

1 | 3 days ago

Lol he hit three 3s let’s not get carried away

Commercial-East4069 | Cavaliers

3 | 3 days ago

Felt like he hit 30 contested mid range shots on top of that

ChimpArmada | Cavaliers

Tied with the 06-07 mavs pretty crazy team

HivemindIrritant | Cavaliers

10 | 3 days ago

Who lost in the first round.

FireFoxQuattro | Heat

32 | 3 days ago

I know he was a dick while leaving, but every minute I see Terry and remember he’s now the 3rd highest paid player on the Heat roster, I understand more and more why Jimmy said fuck it and stopped trying.

ScuderiaEnzo | Heat

28 | 3 days ago

40 minutes for Terrorist Rozier. I can’t defend Spo on this loss. WHY THE FUCK IS HE PLAYING!? WHAT DIRT DOES HE HAVE ON SPO!?

MITCHELL IS RIGHT THERE!!!!

boogswald | CLE

26 | 3 days ago

I don’t feel like my team is gonna lose basically any games. It is a very strange and fun feeling

BallIsLife2016 | Cavaliers

18 | 3 days ago

It’s crazy. The Cavs were down with a few minutes left and I wasn’t even worried. I had full confidence the Cavs would win.

obxtalldude | Cavaliers

5 | 3 days ago

I was so relaxed I fell asleep and missed the Heat’s final 3 attempt where his foot was out of bounds.

Wild ending when I woke up and saw the replay.

Still not stressed. Weird.

Roizer needs to be investigate this game. There is no way a NBA player can that bad

SBORBS | MIA

Bam is elite, so glad he’s good again

Prkchpsndwiches | Cavaliers

Bam with an amazing game. Dude had me stressed

Punished_Blubber | Cavaliers

Few will remember that the refs called a foul on Darius Garland for having (consensual) gay sex with Kevin Love during the game.

SomeFatherFigure | Cavaliers

10 | 3 days ago

The refs were clearly jealous.

I’m surprised Miami were in this one without Herro.

Derrick_Rozay | Cavaliers

We do a little trolling sometimes

Everyday_ImSchefflen | Cavaliers

Nah. That was just Bam having a great game.

Harvey_Beardman | Cavaliers

13 | 3 days ago

Cavs on the second night of b2b and 3 in 4 nights. We were tired, especially with the strong defense Miami was playing

Wiggins and ware out too. Doesn’t matter though. Still an L.

Padulsky21 | BKN

Since when did Max Strus morph into looking like a Ricky Rubio variant? Dude grew out the hair and the beard and looks like him lmfao

Can the FBI please take away Rozier from our team.

tiboshki | Pistons

That ending was chaotic as hell. It’s like a Chargers vs Vikings having a choke-off.
