BREAKING NEWS: Memphis Grizzlies looking to trade Ja Morant 👀 #nba #fyp #shorts #jamorant #trending

On this episode of Miami Heat Talk, we break down the bizarre situation surrounding the postponed Miami Heat vs Chicago Bulls game due to condensation on the court — but more importantly, we dive into a lineup decision that could seriously impact the Heat moving forward.

Before tip-off, Eric Spoelstra rolled out a small starting lineup featuring Bam Adebayo, Andrew Wiggins, Norman Powell, Tyler Herro, and Davion Mitchell. A move that immediately raised red flags. The Miami Heat had recently found real success with Kel’el Ware in the starting lineup, alongside Bam, Wiggins, Powell, and Mitchell — a group that brought size, rim protection, defensive versatility, and balance on both ends of the floor.

With Tyler Herro coming off the bench in the previous game, the rotation finally looked right. The offense flowed, the defense improved, and the team looked more connected. But with Herro viewing himself as a max-level player and wanting to start, Spoelstra’s decision to go small brings back memories of a 1–8 stretch where this lineup struggled mightily — especially on the defensive end.

We talk about why Kel’el Ware MUST start, why Davion Mitchell makes sense as the point guard, and how going small hurts the Heat’s identity. Is this about egos? Matchups? Or is Miami overthinking something that was already working?

Let me know in the comments:
Should Tyler Herro be starting — or is he better suited coming off the bench for this team to win?
