Duncan Robinson didn’t do the Heat any favors
For example Kevon Looney for the WarriorsDuncan Robinson left only good memories in Miami, and last night the players, coaches and fans paid him a wonderful tribute. “It’s one of the biggest success stories in Heat history. We’re all extremely happy for him. It’s a rare story, and he heard ‘no’ more often than ‘yes’. But it made him stronger.” shared by Erik Spoelstra. “It’s true that it’s strange to see him in blue. It doesn’t seem normal, but that’s life in the NBA.”
Author of 18 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, but also 1 interception and 1 block in a tough win for the PistonsRobinson hurt his former teammates badly and it was he who started a 13-0 run in the 1st quarter, and again, midway through the 3rd quarter, he forced Spoelstra to take a timeout after the counterattack ended in Eurostep.
“It was fun… It was a cool experience, but also weird”the shooter confided after the meeting. “As much as I love these guys, I really wanted to win this one.
For Bam Adebayo, the heat “left him too alone in defense”. “But we’ll see him again soon, so I think we’ll be able to come back.” warns the All-Star pivotwhile Spoelstra believes that his training is not at the level of Robinson’s teammates.
“Detroit has shown us why they are number one in the East so far. We are a team in flux, but tonight they were at a higher level for long stretches. Their intensity, on both ends of the floor, surprised us a little bit. Sometimes you have to see what it is, feel it, take a step forward. And tonight we saw how it was in physical defense.”
