Heat Training Camp/Preseason Thread

Bk, I can see how you think Im crazy, but Irving and K Love cant stay healthy. Mark my words, by the midway point of the season, Irving is going to be injured and out the remainder of the year. He is going to try and do so much now that Lebron is there. He is going to watch to "prove" to everyone that this can still be his team, he will end up going to hard and hurt himself.

Well, I'd probably go with the fact that Love and Irving are rather young and they lack the experience that Wade and Bosh had to change up their games for the better of the team. But your solution sounds just as good.

Does James Ennis deserve a Miami Heat rotation role? - Sun Sentinel

I always felt this clown wasnt as cerebral as people wanted to make him seem... May have high basketball IQ but isnt always the smartest guy

If Ennis isn't apart of the rotation spo must be fired. He's way better than guys like Williams and Brown

 

[bksballer89]

Napier looks better than any of our 2 PG's. He needs to be our backup PG at least.

Start Cole, have Chalmers as our backup SG and use Napier as the backup PG

I really hope that Wade and the team are holding back in pre-season. Right now, we look old and not very athletic. Andersen does not look the same and Dwayne looks much less explosive. Bosh looks better, but we might be looking at a 6th or 7th seed. Can McRoberts make that big of a difference? We have no inside presence and our rebounding is weak. Hope we given Ennis a chance with the rotation players in pre-season to see what he has. The over/under from Vegas, which I thought was easily beatable before camp, seems like it could be stretch.

Don't mean to be negative, but just not seeing much right now.

As I have always said, for me pre-season game 1 is as important as regular season game 82 - that said, I have not and will not watch any of the pre-season games - all it does is force you to want to draw conclusions about every single thing and that is just not a reasonable thing to do at this time of the season.

Make absolutely NOTHING out of what you see or dont see in these games.

If Ennis isn't apart of the rotation spo must be fired.

Ennis, much like most guys on the roster, will have to earn his spot on the roster and rotation. No such thing as “ if such guy isnt on the roster,lineup,rotation” Spo must be fired. Thats silly and stupid at this point.

Paolo, there's no reason to get snippy. Ennis spent a year in Australia and balled out and improved significantly which has transferred over to his play in the preseason thus far. He certainly has put on a good display. A lot of Heat fans feel the same way about Ennis just like BK does.

Do you post on Hurricane boards? Specifically the 24/7 one? Just curious.

Dude this is a brand new roster basically and it is game 3 of the preseason and they only been in camp for 2 weeks. I don't know why anyone would expect this team to be clicking on all cylinders already. Also they're trying out different rotations to see what works best. McRoberts is a much better option than Williams & Haslem who's been starting at PF so far

Andres, I post on Canesinsider (I browse Canesinsight as Pete's up to date on recruiting, but it's childish over there). Feel free to go on there, I've been on a rampage with the Hurricanes coaching staff so be careful.

Williams got cut today. I hope they go with a 14 man roster keeping one of the 3 pt specialist and 1 open spot for someone like okafor

My bad . Wasnt trying to be snippy. But it is kinda silly to suggest a coach get fired over something rather minimal, for the sake of not using the word stupid

I think Bk was embellishing a bit. Spo's done a good job during his tenure with the Heat. But, as mentioned before, I think Ennis has done enough to show he deserves to be included in the 10-12 man rotation.

 

[bksballer89]

Heatles is right. But through 3 games of preseason, Ennis and Napier has been our best 2 bench players. Spo needs to play them against actual the NBA 1st & 2nd string players. He's been playing them mainly in the 4th

I like the Heat starting Granger at 4 tonight. If McBob isn't ready for the start of the year I prefer him to start instead of Williams or Haslem
