We're just getting out worked. We look tired and are playing lackadaisically. We are starting to look beat.
 
Thats why we dont give the ball to gobert in the post
 
This is unfortunately what I feel a prelude to the playoffs will be, where we can’t get back in transition and end up having too much pressure to have our offense look like it should and you end up with a lot of scoring lulls, with fast breaks off our misses.
 
I think the heat are legitimately better than us.
They are definitely better than us if we shoot 28% from three and they shoot 50% from three. Im willing to bet that if we were hitting 50% from three and they were shooting 28% then we would be winning. Sometimes its just that simple. Make shots and look good. Miss shots and look bad.
 
To be fair his defensive effort has been much better this season so far. He's had a few very solid defensive efforts this game but Butler made the tough shot over him. Sometimes good D gets beat by better offense.
His defensive effort is not really the issue. He has been scrappy even in the Denver series. When he is one on one, I can get not being able to do much. It's just being lost everytime when getting back on transition or in rotation, overhelping, that crab-walking closeout which I can't wrap my head around. He just doesn't understand where he needs to be or what he needs to do.

Easy to get back in transition if you make your shots. especially from 3 (long rebounds) Thats the problem this game. Missing too much from deep.
 
The Heat have a 140 offensive rating. This is what happens when a team knows how to play against the Jazz defensive system.
 
Clarkson, again watching Herro, who he left wide open last time to hit a 3, relocate to corner and make a 3.
