Terry Rozier on midseason transition to Miami: 'Who the hell wants it easy?'
Rozier’s midseason transition to the Heat hasn’t been easy, but it has still been everything he hoped it would be. “It’s what every competitor, what every true competitor in my position would want,” Rozier said. “Nothing has been easy. But who the hell wants it easy? Because at the end of the day, I think it’s going to pay off in the long run and you’re going to appreciate times like this.”

More on this storyline
So the defending champs instead found life for most of the night in Michael Porter Jr., the sharpshooter who couldn’t buy a bucket in his first career NBA Finals. Porter amassed 30 points and 11 rebounds along with impressive defensive activity in a 103-97 win Thursday night at Ball Arena. “It was a great series. … I was just looking forward to the rematch,” Porter said. “I’m so far past a bad shooting stretch in the Finals.” The Heat trailed 94-81 with 5:19 remaining, but Terry Rozier’s shot-making helped close the gap in clutch time. After a Jokic offensive foul in the last minute with a four-point lead, Jimmy Butler scored with 10.7 seconds left to cut the deficit to 99-97. Denver wasn’t in the bonus yet, so Michael Malone used a timeout to advance the ball after Miami fouled. Jokic made a pair of foul shots to double the lead and finish the game with 18 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists. He came up short of joining rare company with a fifth consecutive triple-double. “Very reminiscent of our Finals games,” Malone said. -via Denver Post / March 1, 2024
