No shade to Tyler Herro or Terry Rozier BUT Duncan NEEDS to start and one of those guys needs to come off the bench and provide offense. Duncan has been the 3rd best player this season in terms of impact. Can’t bench him any longer.

Jaime Jaquez will be the 6th man His offensive skillset lends very well to being a primary scorer off the bench. Very much like Herro his rookie year is what I’m expecting to see from Jaime Games where Jimmy doesn’t start he might crack the starters but I think his role is…

@WheelerJaylen 2011 was the one they probably should’ve won so it’s the easy pick. 2020 tho imo is the best chance they had during the Jimmy build. Goran getting hurt alongside Bam in the finals was too much. 2020 still hurts to this day.

Bright spots for the heat yesterday were Jovic and JJJ. Jovic was very good cleaning up boards, shot the ball well from 3, did his thing in transition and gave us some size. The defense wasn’t perfected but the fact we have no POA when he was playing made him look a lot worse…
