23 first-half points for Max Strus ties the third-most for a player off the bench this season (others are all Pacers).
T.J. McConnell and Jordan Nwora had 25; Bennedict Mathurin had 23.
The last time a Heat reserve had more in a first half was 2/27/19 when Goran Dragic had 25. – 9:19 PM

Half: Heat 69, Nets 66
Brooklyn gets hot from three to cut the deficit to three at the break. Cam Johnson finally has it going. He has 16 points on 4/7 shooting from three.
Miami only leading by three after a half where they shot 67% from the field and 9/15 from 3 is something. – 9:13 PM

Another season of the Ben Simmons era set to end before it ever started. Where to the Nets go from here?

It’s a close race so far but there’s still plenty of time to vote on your favorite @Udonis Haslem moment from his career: https://t.co/K0tmlqCYd4 pic.twitter.com/fHOOHRpBgf – 4:00 PM

This would be part of a Bulls rebuild/reload. Two firsts for Caruso is a nice get.
The Nets don’t necessarily have to rebuild, but they’re so deep on the wing that if they can get a first for Royce it probably makes sense to consider it. – 4:00 PM

Mavs would probably want to improve the big spots. Would still have the MLE. Maybe they keep Powell/Wood and maybe they don’t.
I really like the Heat turning Duncan and a mid/late first into Haradway. Desperately needed scoring punch, plus gets him to his dad’s old team. – 3:59 PM

Trying some “let’s fix the Mavs this offseason” trades. How does this look?
Went with the “Bulls want two firsts for Caruso” story from February. Heat give up a late first to get off Duncan. Mavs get their wing.

Funny to see Jimmy Butler actually admitting to starting to play for real right after the All Star break
I’m going to make sure to get him to admit Playoff Jimmy is a real thing before the post-season….

UD and Bam have developed a unique bond filled with laughs, passing of the #HEATCulture torch moments and even ‘best friend’ labels.
@CoupNBA has details on how the 2 became close and an exclusive first time admission from Bam on a bold prank he once pulled on UD 😂 #4DaysOf40 – 3:01 PM

So a big game tonight for the Heat against the Nets
Can really add some cement to that 6th seed
Plus after that last Nets game, Jimmy Butler should really come to play
Also that other game didn’t count
Jimmy said it: he doesn’t start playing til after All Star break – 2:59 PM

#Cavs head coach J.B. Bickerstaff said that he will be watching the Brooklyn/Miami game tonight that would clinch a playoff berth with a Heat victory. Doesn’t have any celebration planned if things go their way, though. – 2:14 PM
