Are they playing Miami Heat defense yet?
Another thing I would like to say is that Robinson and Herro cannot start at the same time with Kelly Olynyk starting at the four. Its not fair for Bam Adebayo and Jimmy Butler to clean up their mistakes all the time.
Robinson has been solid at times and though I haven’t looked at the numbers, he’s been awful based on the eye test. Plus, with Robinson’s shooting and spacing ability you have to have a trade off.
Herro is a great rebounder for a guard and for the most part, is an okay defender but he has struggled at that end this year. When Herro’s scoring is up, his energy goes up on the other end which always happens to players but Herro needs to be locked in on the other end.
We all know Olynyk struggles on defense and though an okay positional defender, you see where we are going with this. You cant have three okay to bad defenders in a starting lineup.
Miami’s was successful last year when Jae Crowder was at the four and being Miami’s third defender. Right now, Miami doesn’t have that third solid defender in the lineup.
Miami needs to make a move, whether it’s a big move or a small one, I think it needs to happen. Miami needs some new blood on the roster.
They are playing dangerous game by waiting, I believe. We will see how it turns out though.
