Dwyane Wade says the Miami Heat have Been a disgruntled organization the last few years: “It’s not secret that the Miami Heat need to re tool. They need to figure it out. They continue to put out All Stars but you just got to put out the right mix together so you can get back to that place you’re accustomed to being at. That’s the playoffs and competing for something. It’s not just championships, it’s in the playoffs competing for something. You just want a chance. We haven’t given ourself a chance. We’ve been in the play in the last 4 years. People got mad at me when I said it but no lies detected. It’s not that the talent isn’t there. It’s just the meshing of the talent is not there…. It started when everything started going down with Jimmy and the Heat. We’ve been a disconnect organization since that point. We been a disgruntled organization the last few years.” (Via @wynetwork)

@Al_Laflare Mark Jackson preaching on Sherman Way & Reseda ??? lmao

Ant on going for blocks: "I just be watching Dwyane Wade clips. He would beat shit at the rim so I just be trying to beat shit at the rim that's all. If Rudy ain't down there, I'm trying to beat that shit. I don't care who it is"

@spurlgin This is why the Heat , aside from last year , always a problem in the playoffs no matter the seeding. Would’ve enjoyed seeing them match up vs Detroit.

The gap between regular season ball and playoffs is ridiculous

@IraHeatBeat would have won easily with Bam

The Heat lost to that team?

I can’t believe anyone thought the Hornets were a legitimate playoff team

@NegativeNimble What a character! Peak build up! F**king insane episode.

@HeatvsHaters this guy will/has never amount to anything that Duncan Robinson did in a Heat jersey. He too soft to play in Miami send him to GS so Jimmy can cheer him up

Nikola Jovic on his experience this season: “I would say look at more at Duncan [Robinson]. Duncan is someone who went through similar stuff. At one point you feel like good enough for the team… then all of a sudden you’re at the end of the bench — and you feel like you’ll never see the floor again. It’s so up and down. It’s just the way the Heat are. In the minutes I have, I have to be perfect to get consistent minutes.”

@Heat_Muse “you gotta be good every night for them to play you” no shit bro it’s called being a pro??? get this dude off the team already.

Jovic on his playing time: “At one point you feel like you’re good enough and then all of a sudden you’re at the end of the bench. It’s just the way the Heat is, I guess. Ive got to be perfect and if [not], I’ll be at the end of the bench I guess.” Shots at spo? 😳

@Heat_Muse My number one grief with the team this season… what the fuck happened to our defensive identity? Rather be top 5 in defense than top 5 in offense

This was the first season Miami did not finish top 10 in defense in SIX seasons. So uncharacteristic of Spo.

@UnSportsESPN @EvCoRadio @ESPNWestPalm They were a lot of teams that were better than Miami this season , the Hornets were definitely not one of them. what is blud going on about

"The Charlotte Hornets are the better team, but that was a dirty play last night." @EvCoRadio on LaMelo Ball's play against Bam Adebayo. | @ESPNWestPalm

@ChrisBHaynes suspend that rat teach him a lesson , ain’t the first time probably won’t be the last

Sources: NBA to review Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball for taking out ankle of Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo in 2nd Q, resulting in hard spill and back injury that cost him rest of crucial do-or-die play-in contest. Ruling expected before Hornets’ final play-in bout on Friday.

The NBA can review and “correct” a Max Strus 3-pointer several minutes after it happened but can’t check a blatantly obvious dirty play that took out the Heat’s best player for the majority of the game.

No more Heat basketball til October.

DAVION MITCHELL play in legend

@UnderdogNBA Lamelo a fucking rat for that

Status alert: Bam Adebayo (back) questionable to return Tuesday.

@Heat_Muse I think we will win today , and probably lose the next play in game. I’m cool with the result but I’ll always root for a playoff run after what happened in ‘23. I also think this is the summer big trades are made anyways so as a fan I’m cool

I’m a die hard fan of this team. That’s why I’m rooting for a loss tonight. I know people will probably be upset at this, but not only will we get a lottery pick in a stacked draft, but the front office NEEDS a wake up call. This team can’t be complacent anymore. It’s misery.

Plan A: Marrying her. Plan B: Visit another planet and become the coolest uncle in that alien civilization.

@jasrifootball @BetMGM Dolphins used to have the best WR room not that long ago…

Who has the worst WR room in the NFL? (via: @BetMGM)
