Tucker’s floater game was on display again and again, proving to be a rather effective weapon for him. Utah was playing off of him and he read the floor very well.

He even brought the ball up a couple times to run Miami’s offense, which I don’t think any Miami fans saw coming. He also shows capable of running the dribble-handoff game as well.

As a roller, he is much better than I thought he would be. The floater is something that can’t be mentioned enough in that scenario, but he isn’t an awful passer either and mostly because he always looks to make the right play.

He has always been a Heat Guy, through and through, in the eyes of many Miami Heat fans. Tucker is everything that Miami preaches.

Yes, he fits the “Culture”. It seems as if he was born to play for Miami.

They finally have their four-man that can switch on the perimeter and defend down low. I’ve been writing for a while now on how Tucker is a hand in glove fit for them too, so it’s no shocker here.

As of now, he has been everything and more for Miami. He is, of course, shooting the corner three ball good.

He’s what a glue guy should be, someone who excels mightily at the little things and just wants to win at the end of the day. Oh and how can we forget about him and Kyle Lowry leading the way for Miami when it comes to taking charges.

In fact, Miami leads the league in charges and by a wide margin, with a huge thanks to those two guys. The Culture is strong with this team and though it starts with the guys that have been here the longest, at this point, it now ends with the enforcer, the dog, and the legit Miami Heat Guy, P.J. Tucker.
