And what do you tend to disagree on with other members of Heat Nation?
Nurse: I tend to disagree with Heat Nation on a few things. For one, I would never agree that effort alone trumps winning or trying to improve the team. However the top two things are how Spoelstra and Justise Winslow are viewed. Spoelstra has proven himself to be a great coach, but the huge missteps with rotations, riding the cold hands, time management and not allowing players to focus on improving their obvious skill in exchange for being positionless, are often overlooked. With Winslow, the he’s still young argument just does not fly anymore, for the lack of progression in his game.
Gewirtz: I disagree that president Pat Riley should go. I know this is a very debatable topic given contracts signed and lack of moves made recently, but Riley has proved over time that he makes things work whether short-term or long. While this offseason was disappointing for many fans in some aspects, I am not ready to completely count him out of having a plan for the future.
Rahming: There is a small contingency of Heat Nation that believes Wade is washed up and should’ve retired years ago. I’m sorry, but that’s just not something I can get behind. Until he has those moments that Steve Smith had where players are dribbling between his legs and spinning him around on defense, while also not being able to get ten points in a game, he is not a washed up player. I’m sure we will see something along that road, but I doubt Wade will ever get to that point where you’re watching a game and you see Wade and say “Boy, its time” on his way to the bench.
Eyrich: That the Heat are in a bad spot. I’m starting to believe that Heat Nation could have been too spoiled during The Big Three era. This is a talented roster. The Heat are not in a rebuilding process. Does that mean they are a championship caliber team? No. But just because there is progress to be made, does not mean that the team is starting from scratch all of the sudden.
