Wow....
We have done NOTHING that has worked in the previous games. We are literally giving them confidence.
Vogel better figure this out...

AD needs to play significantly better in the second half but I'll take a 4 point deficit.

1. AD is playing awful.
2. Too many Turnovers.
3. Losing points in the paint battle.
4. 0 sense of urgency.

AD not being able to play is huge bc now Miami can just treat Lebron like Giannis. Quadruple team him in the key and double in perimeter. Guys gotta shoot with confidence and not do too much (JR and DG)

No ones gonna play defense on Butler or what

eh i'm not there yet...AD refusing to take jumpers over guys he's 5 inches taller than has a lot to do with it. DG also is scared to shoot which I dont think will change this series. Lets win today so we dont take the chance of watching our "shooters" go cold while they get hot...thats a recipe for disaster

Lebron HAS to guard him in second half. IF AD wasnt in foul trouble you can put AD and Lebron on him and sprinkle in Morris. Butler is not fast. as long as you dont fall for his pump fakes, he should be an easy cover

They have to stop sending them to the free throw line and they need to finish their defense. How many times does Butler miss the first drive but then gets his own rebound?

1) Put Lebron on Butler.
2) AD has to shoot. Make or miss. Shoot your pretty jumpers. They are demoralizing.
3) Continue with the D. Only 58 given up isnt terrible but lets bring it to sub 50 (once Lebron guards Butler)
4) Role players have to be willing to shoot. If open, SHOOT. No hesitation.
5) Grab an offensive rebound or two for the love of god

Lebron gets the deflection and who is there to kick it out? DG

Herro and Robinson are now going this series. Butler is unstoppable bc we have nobody that can defend him.
Zone has worked for the most part....
Series is far from over. Shame on us if this goes beyond 5 games. Shame.
