They just were all kind of in the wrong.

I mean, it was bad, but like, it was just like, of course it dropped right in the middle of the bucket where nobody could actually grab it.

Like it was just like a weird bloop single type play where, yeah, they maybe could have got a better jump on it, but it's just landed in the wrong place.

And it felt like there were a bunch of those where Miami kind of got their hands to the ball.

And in my opinion, this game was a lot closer than it should have been throughout the first three quarters just because they're getting breaks, they're getting loose balls, and that's effort stuff.

But they just kind of got everything their way, and they got those second-chance points.

Boston played good initial defense.

They got them to miss.

They just couldn't close the possession.

So to me, that was one of the bigger things today.

But Missoula postgame continues to be impressed with this guy's effort.

I was thinking about this, and I would never ask –

Because I'm sure they wouldn't like that I would ask this.

I almost wonder if he's purposely not playing any other big than Nimi to pressure the front office to get another guy.

And I don't know if that's something he would do, and I don't think that he has a weird relationship with Brad where he would passive-aggressively do something like that where he knew it would kind of put them at a disadvantage because there are definitely advantages to the small ball lineup.

I'm not saying that they're not.

I'm not saying that there's no reason to run it.

But the way that they've gotten beat up on the glass today and also Monday, which actually made them lose the game on Monday,

I'm like, hmm, like Luka Garza wouldn't give you anything for like five minutes.

I'm not saying I'm begging them to play Luka Garza, but there are just certain matchups.
