Interesting to see what happens tonight. Blew Miami last time out. If we win again, I’m going to start getting optimistic about a 2 vs 7 matchup between us and Miami. I think we match up well with them, but obviously playoff basketball is a different beast.

Playoffs!! you're talking Playoffs?

It’s going to take a pretty big collapse to miss the playoffs. Both Detroit and Chicago are in the top 10 for strength of schedule. Both Detroit and Chicago already face an uphill battle in catching Brooklyn for the 8th seed. It’d take a dramatic losing spell for us and a stretch of great play from Chicago/Detroit for us to fall outside of the top 8.

This season hasn’t been a building block or anything, but barring disaster, we’re making the playoffs.

 

Edit: We also have the 5th easiest schedule in the league, so there’s that as well.

JIMMY BUTLER
(Injury Update - Knee and Ankle)
Questionable Monday
January 26, 2020
Butler (ankle) is considered questionable for Monday's game against the Magic, Andre Fernandez of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The 30-year-old entered Friday's game against the Clippers nursing a sore knee but ended up sustaining the right ankle sprain and was unable to return. The Heat are dealing with a multitude of injuries as Goran Dragic (calf) and Kendrick Nunn (Achilles) are also questionable while Bam Adebayo (ankle) is probable.
 
 
**Butler is 30 yrs. old, DJ Augustin is 32
 
 
Edit:   Fultz needs to test Butler's knee and ankle with some 'crossover' dribbling.

How disappointing. At least with the lottery, we have a small chance to get lucky. The way we are going we will never get out of the quagmire we are in. [sigh]

Yeah we are basically gonna see if we get annihilated as the 8 seed, or maybe steal a game from the 2 seed before losing in 5 again.

Pretty much exactly where we thought we would be after last season ended and we ran it back.
