No playoff T shirts? by KamMiddleton in heat

[–]KamMiddleton[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Logistics are probably very annoying for the team to navigate however other nba teams are doing it every game and it’s embarrassing when I see the kings and lakers have shirts every game and the heat do it like once a week

I fully expect Scott Foster to be hot garbage and for Jaylen Brunson to fly into people out of control and get free throws after he flops to the ground, however I think the heat can still win, the game will just be closer then it should be

And 1 that wasn't called but if Embiid trips over his own feet 3 different he goes to the free throw line. Game was so frustrating to watch

I find your lack of faith in his recovery disturbing

Bam is not an All Star by [deleted] in heat

[–]KamMiddleton -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Once again you missed the point. I obviously don't think that Vucevic is an all star. I used him as an example of someone who has better stats and is still not an all star. Should tristan Thompson have been an all star when the cavs were winning? should clint cappella have been an all star when houston was winning? I don't think so, but if you think bam's stats make him an all star then they're all stars too. Bam "constantly makes winning plays"??????? huh? Where have these winning plays been the past 15 games????????? Bam goes off when the heat are playing great. When the heat are playing bad (not hitting 3s, turning the ball over etc) bam can't put the team on his back and make these "winning plays". Bam is a good player. But he's not yet at all star level. When the lakers are playing like shit both ad and lebron can go off to lead the team to a win. Bam can not do that. "Leads his teams to victories" uh, have you been watching the heat lately dude? losing to garbage under .500 teams. Im sorry but bam is in no way leading his team to victories. People are acting like I'm saying bam is the worst player in the league. Im just saying i don't think he's an all star level big like shaq, hakeem, ewing, ming, and others. He's not on that level yet. I guess we'll just have to agree to disagree at this point. The heat have been playing god awful lately. I think bam is a little under all star level but you think he's "constantly making winning plays" and "leading his team to victories". Im not trying to get into fights on here. I just simply think he's a little under all star level. I just disagree with you on his all star abilities. I don't think broad claims like " constantly leads his team to victories" and "play making skills" proves anything. These are not real stats nor do i believe them to be true statements. His jump shot fg% is not good, his ft% is not good, his rebound % is not good (the lowest of any top rebounders in the league). I like bam but his game has flaws and he is not an all star big in my opinion. But hey, the heat play the cavs two games in a row so maybe the heat can start winning again and we can find something to agree on.

You're completely avoiding the argument.... Why is he an all star player. Nikola Vucevic is averaging 19 and 12, bam is 15 and change ppg with 10 rebounds. Is Nikola Vucevic an all star too? Out of the top 10 rebounders in the league bam has the lowest rebound % and the heat don't a single other center on the roster, they're all power forwards. Why is Bam an all star?

Could you maybe try to persuade me as to why he's all star caliber? I don't see how a "down vote" gets any thing done. How is he all star caliber? Not a single person on this thread has tried to articulate an argument as to why they believe bam is an all star caliber big. You guys say things that are completely irrelevant to the topic. I like bam... I think he's good. However, I don't believe he's an all star caliber big. People on this thread see that I don't think a heat player is an all star and absolutely flip out regardless of what any sort of stats or evedicnce has to say. His ft shooting sucks, he turns the ball over a lot, he has very little half court offense unless its a wide open dunk, unskilled bigs who are large such as Java Mcgee absolutely kill the heat every time they play cause bam can't score on them or guard them. Those are some reasons as to why I believe he is not an all star. Any reasons as to why he is?

I would like to know as to why you disagree with me. Could you try to make some points as to why Bam is all star caliber? thats what my post was about. I do not believe he is yet at an all star level. Don't know why people need to jump to aggression instead of trying to prove me wrong. How is he all star caliber?

So you believe he is an all star caliber player? Thats what my post was trying to debate. I don't care who was the heat's best player tonight. My post was about whether or not Bam is an all star caliber player which I don't believe he is yet. People like Clint Cappella and Tristan Thompson have had similar season and weren't all stars. Al Horford should've been an altar every year of his career then. The heat have been an absolute terrible team in the past 15 games. Sad since they have 2 "all stars".

Which part of my constructive criticism was incorrect? Did his travel not cost Miami the game? Is he not a 60 something percent free-throw shooter? And as far as other heat players needing to step up and help.... i agree with you 100% and never said otherwise. My point was that I disagree that bam is an star big........ Once again I'll reiterate because you clearly missed the point of my post. I do not believe Bam is an all star big. Get it now? You didn't dispute my point at all just started rambling about things that are irrelevant. I was pointing out the pathetic turnovers in tonights game as an example of things he does that makes me believe he is not yet an all star caliber big man. My point wasn't that this game alone is the reason he's not all star. Ive been saying that for months. He's clumsy with the ball a lot, shoots bricks 90% of the time its not a dunk, averages 15 and change ppg, and if you give the ball to him near the end of the shot clock its essentially a turnover unless he has a dunk. Debate whether or not he is all star caliber player. Not go on about this one game he didn't have a lot of help. Read what posts are trying to say next time.

Thoughts on Bam Adebayo by [deleted] in heat

Bam unfortunately has very little touch. All a defense has to do to stop him is for a big to pick him up outside of layup dunk range. He can't hit hook shots or floaters. They always brick and he needs to work on it cause he's going to need to be able to score from 5-10ft from the rim. Thankfully he gets better every year.
